Paolo, I see this as a learning opportunity: I'll have a go at converting the swig clisp module (clisp.cxx etc) to a gst module to get a feel for the level of difficulty (c++ is foreign to me,) and see how I do. If it turns out not to be beyond me, then I'll have a go a more complete wrapper module based on pythons or whatever seems most appropriate (that is unless someone else is already working this.)

The problem is that CLISP's C binding is way more powerful. In particular, GNU Smalltalk has no support for enums and variables. Also, more work (or a wrapper layer, that SWIG is very good at emitting) would be necessary to support things such as passing structures by value.
