Scheme-to-C

language A Scheme compiler written in C that emits C

and is embeddable in C. Scheme-to-C was written by Joel

Bartlett of Digital Western Research Laboratory. Version

15mar93 translates a superset of Revised**4 Scheme to C that

is then compiled by the native C compiler for the targetmachine. This design results in a portable system that

allows either stand-alone Scheme programs or programs written

in both compiled and interpreted Scheme and other languages.

It supports "expansion passing style" macros, foreignfunction calls, records, and interfaces to Xlib (Ezd

and Scix).

Scheme-to-C runs on VAX, ULTRIX, DECstation, Alpha AXP

OSF/1, Windows 3.1, Apple Macintosh 7.1, HP 9000/300,

HP 9000/700, Sony News, SGI Iris and Harris

Nighthawk, and other Unix-like 88000 systems. The

earlier 01nov91 version runs on Amiga, SunOS, NeXT, and

Apollo systems.
