hum, well some comments first:

hum, i can't accept this, otherwise every language can be "shebang"
aware!

when it is included in the default jscheme install, i will accept it!

**********
how does one run hello.scm which contains the following?

(display "Hello World\n")

**********
 (print (if (= (out (run (cmd false))) 1) "false failed" "done"))

can you make it more alike the other versions. eg in python:

 if os.system("false"):
     sys.stderr.write("false failed\n")
 os.system("echo done")

**********
for "remove #-comments from a file (modifying the file, i.e. in place)"

one must replace line "foo#bar" with line "foo"
(eg in sed: sed -i -e "s/#.*//" $1)

**********
i don't understand the "compile .c files ..." entry.
i'd say something is broken?

  (let* ((dir (java.io.File. "."))
        (s->o (s->o dir dir ".c" ".o"))
        (update? (needsUpdate? s->o)))
      ...)

or this really working? is "needsUpdate?" a builtin ? please
correct/explain me :)

**********
the grep entry is not allowed to use the grep command

**********

that's it,
cu
