Although Scheme != Lisp, you may want to look into the recently posted
Scheme implementation named Elk; a Motif extension for Elk is available
as a separate module.

Elk is mainly intended to be used as a general extension language (to
be linked into an application written in C or C++), but it is also
useful as a stand-alone implementation of Scheme.

I currently know of at least two large applications (an ODA-based document
processing system and a multi-media electronic conferencing system) that
use Elk together with the Motif extension as their user-interface
implementation language.
