Emacs is written in both C and LISP.  The basic functionality (file I/O,
screen management, buffer manipulation, searching, etc) is written in
C for speed.  Emacs also includes a C implementation of a LISP interpreter.
The high-level functionality is written in LISP to allow maximum customization
by users.  This works; LSE's for many languages have been written for Emacs.
