has anyone here used CL or Scheme as a shell to create/move/delete directories and files. List directory contents, change directories, all the things you do with a shell language. I know emacs has most of this functionality, but I want to be able to use Lisp alone.

look into emacs-shell. its a shell written completley in emacs lisp. so basically every function in emacs is available in the language. about 2000 functions. you will never use them all. its super powerful. its better than perl as a text processing language.
