| Ezd is a graphics server that sits between an application program and the X server and allows both existing and new programs easy access to structured graphics. Ezd users have been able to have their programs produce interactive drawings within hours of reading the man page. Structured graphics: application defined graphical objects are ordered into drawings by the application. Loose coupling to the application program: unlike most X tools, ezd does not require any event handling by the application. The ezd server mantains window contents. When an event occurs on such an object, an application supplied Scheme expression is evaluated. | |

| from author | |
| I am looking for a few interested language hackers to play with and comment on a scheme interpreter. I would prefer those who have been hacking portable [non-scheme] interpreters for many years. The interpreter is PSI, a portable scheme interpreter that includes a simple dag compiler and a virtual machine. It can be used as an integrated extension interpreter in other systems, allows for easy addition of new primitives, and it embodies some other interesting ideas. There are some unique[2] code debug/trace facilities, as well, acceptable performance resulting from a fairly straight-forward implementation. Continuations are fully and portably supported, and perform well. PSI is based on the simple compilers/vm in Kent Dbyvig's thesis. | |

Scsh is a Unix shell that is embedded within R4RS Scheme. It
provides high-level shell notation and full access to the Unix
system calls. The current implementation is built on top of
Scheme 48, version 0.36.
Real interactive use needs a parser for an sh-like syntax, job control, and the gnu readline library. If you're interested in hacking on these things, drop us a line at scheme-underground@ai.mit.edu. We've got designs for most of this stuff; we're just short on time and bodies. | |

| We have designed and implemented a macro system that is vastly superior to the low-level system described in the Revised^4 Report; in fact, it essentially eliminates the low level altogether. We also believe it to be superior to the other proposed low-level systems as well, but each of you can judge that for yourself. We have accomplished this by "lowering the level" of the high-level system slightly, making pattern variables ordinary identifiers with essentially the same status as lexical variable names and macro keywords, and by making "syntax" recognize and handle references to pattern variables. | |
