SWIG formerly supported Common Lisp through it's Foreign Function Interface feature. It formerly supported Allegro Lisp implementation, CLISP Implementation and the CFFI Library. What I do have in mind alternatively is to manually write the bindings using the more portable CFFI library the old faction way, though this seems like a rather longer path to my original goal, however this implies I would have a lot more grip over how common-lisp wrapper code is crafted (probably working around implementation specific limitations for each type of compiler or interpreter that supports CFFI Library where possible). Using the CFFI library have the advantage of keeping portability in strict check. I think the current SWIG bindings would point me in a general direction of breaking the process into smaller steps, going one module at a time......
