Please change the title to something more clear, like "A Lisp IDE written in LTK", perhaps add "real time" somewhere in the title.

Also, for future post I suggest avoiding to the bad tone about other languages. Not everyone is enlighten. (And one day you will discover Racket.)

I didn't notice any disparagement toward the other languages, only toward a kind of code dilettantism. But I can't tell from the video - what does this have to do with Lisp? Wouldn't any non-sandboxed repl do this?
I feel like comparing Racket to Common Lisp is an insult to all of the people who worked on Common Lisp. I don't think the makers of Racket would have the hubris to compare their work to that of the authors of Common Lisp.
Is that like comparing a ford to a holden? Or a merc to a beamer?
It's like comparing the Empire State Building gift shop to the Empire State Building.
