Hi! This is an announcement of "CRUNCH", a compiler for a statically typed subset of R7RS (Small) Scheme, embedded into CHICKEN, heavily influenced by PreScheme[1] and can be considered a reimplementation of the latter.
CRUNCH is only available for CHICKEN 6, the currently unreleased next major version, so in case you want to give it a test, you will have to build it yourself: $ git clone https://code.call-cc.org/git/chicken-core.git $ cd chicken-core $ git checkout utf+r7rs $ sh scripts/bootstrap.sh $ ./configure --prefix <install location> --chicken ./chicken-boot $ make $ make install $ <install location>/bin/chicken-install -test crunch This is a first release, so expect numerous bugs. The manual can be found at [2]. Feedback is very welcome! cheers, felix [1] https://prescheme.org [2] https://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/6/crunch
