Greetings,

I have stumbled upon a potentially useful tool for Scheme development on MS
Windows. It comes to us from the "alien" world of Lisp (it's actually
written in C++, Daan just likes Lisp).

    http://www.daansystems.com/lispide/

So far, so good.

I configured it to use its Scheme keyword set and told it use some other
Scheme interpreter. The latter is temporary: MinGW & Cygwin are still
interfering with each other and csi won't run. The editor looks good (uses
Scintilla). One can highlight code, click the pair of red parentheses, and
the code runs in the REPL window. One can also type directly in the REPL
window which supports command recall with Ctrl-> & Ctrl<-. This is great!

Note that 1) I appreciate the emacs suggestions but am firmly in the vim
world, and 2) I have had mixed results with slimc and vimrepl (but vim
package the system is neat).

vim REPL  -  http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=4336

This exercise has increased my appreciation for Linux and my sympathy for
Windows developers.  :-)
