Pixie - A small, fast, native lisp with "magical" powers Pixie is a lightweight lisp suitable for both general use as well as shell scripting. The standard library is heavily inspired by Clojure as well as several other functional programming languages. It is written in RPython and as such supports a fairly fast GC and an amazingly fast tracing JIT. Pixie implements its own virtual machine. It does not run on the JVM, CLR or Python VM.
