Scheme 48 is an implementation of the Scheme programming language as
|
|
described in the Revised^5 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme.
|
|
It is based on a compiler and interpreter for a virtual Scheme
|
|
machine. The name derives from our desire to have an implementation
|
|
that is simple and lucid enough that it looks as if it were written in
|
|
just 48 hours. We don't claim to have reached that stage yet; much
|
|
more simplification is necessary.
|
|
|
|
Scheme 48 tries to be faithful to Revised^5 Scheme Report, providing
|
|
neither more nor less in the initial user environment. (This is not to
|
|
say that more isn't available in other environments.)
