Common Lisp also has a good story for application bundling and deployment. It has almost always been my prototyping language (1) but is great for other purposes.
(1) started in around 1986 when I had to write a neural network product in C++ (SAIC ANSim). I did all my prototyping in Coral Common Lisp, and converted to C++ once I had Art2, Hopfield, Boltzmann, backdrop, recurrent networks, etc. figured out.
