Why? If you really want to do scripting in scheme, why would you not just use TinyScheme?
This is just embracing complexity when R5RS is a perfect fit, and already exists in multiple ways in the domain.
Did scsh stop existing?

- arnautdaniel 7y agoTinyscheme doesn't have baked in and complete posix/libc/etc bindings. Also you'd have to say R5RS -> R7RS is somehow a fall into complexity which makes absolutely no sense. Scsh hasn't been updated for over a decade. I appreciate the satire but I think compared to something like Guile, no one has answered what this does better beyond personal preference. And honestly, I don't see that alone as a good justification. I could have a preference for using Matlab to bootstrap embedded devices but that doesn't make it a good idea.
