Chibi-Scheme
--------------
Simple and Minimal Scheme Implementation
http://synthcode.com/wiki/chibi-scheme/
Chibi-Scheme is a very small but mostly complete R5RS Scheme
implementation using a reasonably fast custom VM. Chibi-Scheme tries
as much as possible not to trade its small size by cutting corners,
and provides full continuations, both low and high-level hygienic
macros based on syntactic-closures, string ports and exceptions.
Chibi-Scheme is written in highly portable C and supports multiple
simultaneous VM instances to run.
To build, just run "make". You can edit the file config.h for a
number of settings, mostly disabling features to make the executable
smaller. Documents and examples for using Chibi-Scheme as a library
for extension scripting will be provided in an upcoming release.
syntax-rules must be loaded manually from the file syntax-rules.scm.
