If I'd ever need Scheme, I'll be sure to check it out. While scheme-in-perl is interesting as an exercise in absurdity :-), you really ought to check out a serious R^nRS scheme implementation if you want scheme. There are excellent implementations out there. Easily accessible ones would be elk, xscheme, fools-lisp, Scheme->C, siod, etc. for example. [some of these are not very hard to extend with facilities similar to that of perl ;-)] oz --- Where the stream runneth smoothest, | Internet: oz@nexus.yorku.ca the water is deepest. - John Lyly | UUCP: utzoo/utai!yunexus!oz
