Very rough initial demo of running the Anarres structural editor with Emacs using a native module that embeds Lua 5.4 inside the Emacs process, which runs a Fennel program implementing a structural editor.

So far it only supports the structural navigation using arrows and not actually making changes to the tree. It’s also scorchingly inefficient. But it works.
