Rebol, The Lisp Replacement

Name: Anonymous 2017-02-10 12:11

http://blog.hostilefork.com/rebol-vs-lisp-macros/
A good number of cases where Lisp programmers appear to require macros for expression is because ordinary Lisp functions are limited in how they can work with "context-dependent code fragments" passed as arguments. Rebol attacks this problem by making bindings of individual symbols "travel along" with their code fragments. The result is that many cases requiring macros in Lisp can be written as ordinary Rebol functions.

The compiler and linker are currently written in Rebol.
