I remember seeing a few toy ones. No real serious languages though. I don't think the parent meant to implement an elisp interpreter in Clojure. I thought they meant to build an Emacs like editor in Clojure. Similar to this now abandonned project: https://github.com/hraberg/deuce There'd be no point in re-writing an Elisp compiler/interpreter in Clojure over its current C implementation apart maybe for if you think it be nice for you to work in Clojure instead of C when coding on it.

I started a project to port Emacs (the C parts) manually to Clojure, with the Emacs Lisp automatically transpiled into Clojure in 2012, most of the work was done in early 2013: https://github.com/hraberg/deuce It can boot Emacs on the JVM and take simple commands, but not much more. It's my intention to eventually revisit this project, but not sure when.

What's the equivalent of Newvim for Emacs? I had hopes for Deuce [0], but it seems stagnant. [0] - https://github.com/hraberg/deuce "Emacs under Clojure"

A better emacs extension lisp? How about this attempt in Clojure: https://github.com/hraberg/deuce

There is this project: https://github.com/hraberg/deuce Although it seems to be stalled. Part of me wonders/hopes LightTable will get to the point that it is a viable replacement for emacs.

I'm a bit late to the party, but https://github.com/hraberg/deuce

There is Deuce [1], a project to port Emacs to Clojure. Specifically, the goal is to port the C core entirely to Clojure and replace many redundancies with JVM primitives; also, source-to-source transformation from Elisp to Clojure allows the editor to interpret Elisp on the fly.
