If someone plays with the idea of writing his own tool ..

I assume, the used language/system should be
- memory safe (avoiding pointer arithmetics),
- small memory footprint (w/o garbage collector),
- sophisticated and typed,
- concurrent,
- attract developer.

Candidates are
- Rust
- Lisp / Scheme / Racket
- ML, Haskel
which does not fit all points above in one language.

Which suggestions do you have?
