AWK Lisp: Lisp implemented in AWK
lang/lisp/impl/awk/
A Lisp interpreter implemented in Awk.
It provides intrinsic versions of the basic functions on
s-expressions, and many others written in LISP.
The interpreter has thirteen built-in functions: car, cdr, cons, eq,
atom, set, eval, error, quote, cond, and, or, list. These include the
five elementary functions on s-expressions defined by McCarthy; some
conditional expression operators; an assignment operator, and some
functions to control the evaluation process.
