lokke VS rune

I'm very interested in guile-emacs, not because I think it'll replace main emacs, but I do think it'd be really neat to have my config in a 'cleaner' lisp like scheme, a clojure like language, lokke[0], or even python[1]

There is even a Clojure dialect, although I don't know how mature it is. https://github.com/lokke-org/lokke

A Lisp, a weird dialect of Lisp, is not better than Lua. Why use Rune [0]?!

This is what I based my comment on - https://github.com/rune-rs/rune/issues/444

Late start today as well. I really thought today would be the day that I'd have to abandon my goal of no heap allocations. But, luckily I had an arena allocator available that I could fairly easily adapt to store data on the stack. And with some tweaks we have today's solution:

I'd have given you bonus points for using a rust styled scripting language like rune but that's pretty neat still

As note about using rust syntax for scripting: https://rune-rs.github.io/

I know you said you don’t want to embed another language but IMO Rune is worth a consideration here. It can be a pretty thin abstraction over rust by passing native structs to scripts and calling methods on them. The syntax and semantics are very close to rust so it feels natural. https://github.com/rune-rs/rune

The biggest technical difference I'd say is that Rune uses a stack-based machine which makes adding deep C support somewhat obvious while Rhai performs AST walking to execute scripts.

Here is the repro I ended up writing to validate the problem if anyone wants to take it for a spin.
