It might interest you that MIT Scheme 7.1 supports unix stream
sockets, which might help you in your interprocess communications. It
also suppports asynchronous subprocesses with communication via
inherited file descriptors, pipes or psuedo-terminals (pty's). See
socket.scm and process.scm in the runtime directory for more
information.
