Well...what's the point of compiling Lisp into a language with a slower runtime? If you mean that you want it to compiel to something "pretty", well, the output of a compiler is generally not pretty. It's just meant to be used as opaque object code, not something for human consumption.

I thought I made it clear. The point of doing that is because you'd have simple access to Python's massive collection of quality libraries.

Oh, ok.
