#plan9 people, are you aware of any #Lisp implementation for Plan9/9front? Simple search didn't turn up anything for me. But there must be Lisp for 9, because... there's always some Lisp for any system! Anything I'm missing?

Actually, there's aa (https://git.sr.ht/~ft/aa), but it seems wildly incomplete. So any pointers on more complete systems is appreciated!

@aartaka There’s also this, although it hasn’t been touched in a while: https://github.com/bakul/s9fes

Note: It is t3x.org's s9fes + plan9 specific bits as Nils Holm didn't want to maintain the latter.

I had ported Chibi-scheme to plan9 in 2011 but gave up after a while as it kept breaking. No idea if it is working again on plan9. I had also ported gambit-scheme a long time ago but the same story. It was the most performant of the lot.

@bakul @aartaka I know chibi has been broken and fixed at least twice since then. I’m not sure what the current state is.
