Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Frawk: A fast, JITted, statically-typed AWK written in Rust
One of my recent project requires a fast awk implementation, and I tried frawk and got surprised by how robust it is. Although eventually we chose https://github.com/noyesno/awka for better native awk script compatibility, it's still wonderful to see a project incorporating recent advances of programming language implementation into the ancient awk.

awkcc: awk-to-C transcompiler (1988, 2011)
Interested parties should also check out awka (https://github.com/noyesno/awka) and ELVM (which can compile C into awk or sed, among various other things) (https://github.com/shinh/elvm)

Big list of ASCII games you can play in the terminal
And since you can actually convert awk to C, that means that sed can actually do anything awk can.

A Git Implementation in Awk
ok, I found https://github.com/noyesno/awka so it is possible, though it uses it's own lib to link against - I don't know how much of that is based on AWK C vs original code.

Having never heard of Gambit, it looks like Gambit:Scheme::Awka:AWK

ECL FFI: Eval load-foreign-library before load in same file?
Newbie FFI question. I ran into this issue, posted it on ECL: https://gitlab.com/embeddable-common-lisp/ecl/-/issues/710

Parenscript
Thanks!
I suspect the work is still ongoing. But maybe not on priority.
This diff from around 3 months ago shows it's likely possible to run it in the browser currently but with a lot of caveats (pretty great nonetheless!).

Using ECL (or alternative?) to generate a shared library that works as plugin w/ C-based application
building ECL on MSVC-based Windows seems like a nightmare, or possibly I am messing something up: https://gitlab.com/embeddable-common-lisp/ecl/-/issues/677
