To extend my knowledge and to have a better understanding of the Lisp's foundations, I implemented a simple Lisp in C. It supports symbols, integers, a few primitives, anonymous functions, closures, macros and garbage collection. The implementation follows the KISS principles and is around 1400 lines of code.

Hey, cool project. I just started something similar, here: https://github.com/deliciousrobots/lisp . I'm intrigued by your implementation of garbage collection... an area I punted on (just using Boehm's GC), but eventually would like to implement myself. I'll be reading through your code for inspiration and comparison, so far I like what I'm seeing. You can email me (steveth45 at the google mail service).
