I am wondering if anyone knows how to call Allegro Lisp from C#.  I
would like to call an Allegro Lisp function, by temporarily exiting
the C# thread.  This Lisp function writes its results to a file, which
C# then reads in.

Any pointers on doing interprocess communication between C# and Lisp
without going through an intermediate file would also be appreciated.

I'd suggest trying to do it via COM interop.  Allegro Lisp allows you
to interface to and implement COM objects.
