There is also Pre-Scheme, which compiles directly to C, imposes four restrictions (Hindley-Milner static typing, no GC, limited tail-recursion, and no call/cc). It's used to implement the kernel of Scheme48. You can grab the paper at http://mumble.net/~kelsey/papers/prescheme.ps.gz . Download and build Scheme48 from http://scheme48.org and the Pre-Scheme compiler is available. -- A: "Spiro conjectures Ex-Lax." John Cowan Q: "What does Pat Nixon frost her cakes with?"
