I know what is Lisp. I merely haven't understood your original question
very well. I thought you were asking about some existing Lisp interface.
Sorry, it's my poor English.

My interface is written in C on the top of libpq using guile
specific features. Since libpq functions fit badly to Lisp/Scheme
style of programming, I'm going to write another, more Lispish,
set of functions. But still it will be only for guile.
