CLOP is a s-expressions to C transpiler, written in Python3. It is not what provides a full LISP environment on the top of C, but just a bunch of syntax sugar.
- Python3.5+
- gcc (or any C compiler)

(include stdio)
(defun int:main (int:argc char*:argv[])
(let ((int:i 0))
(while (< (incf i) argc)
(printf "%s\n" (aref argv i))))
(return 0))The code above is translated as follows:
$ clop translate src.clop --out dst.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main (int argc, char* argv[])
{
({
int i = 0;
while (++i < argc)
printf("%s\n", argv[i]);
});
return 0;
}Or, you can run the source directly.
$ clop run src.clop --args="a b c"
a
b
c
