    Lisp dialect scripting and extension language for Rust programs

  • I messed around with and contributed to this project a bit. The biggest challenge I saw in day to day usage was that line numbers aren't included in error messages: https://github.com/murarth/ketos/issues/11

  • guile-sys

    Low-level rust bindings to guile

  • I wrote up some rust low-level bindings for guile [1]. The problem is that Guile liberally uses setjmp/longjmp, which breaks rust destructors. It might be possible to fix this by wrapping every call the way rlua does [2], but I'm not familiar enough with Guile to know.

    High level Lua bindings to Rust
