NewLISP Neo: Replacing a Tree-Walking Interpreter with a VM and Generational GC
Description and use
NewLISP Neo replaces the traditional tree‑walking interpreter with a virtual machine and generational garbage collection, boosting performance and simplifying memory management. To adopt it, swap the old interpreter in your project with Neo, ensuring script compatibility and dependency checks. The project is prototype‑ready and suitable for internal workflows, though production use should confirm license and maintenance status.
Use in a workflow

Limitations and review notes
