Disclaimer: this repo respects original authors and there is no intention
to take over their fame. It's branched to implement some features from the modern
R7RS standard, to fix some old bugs
and tailor it for use in educational purposes.

About

This is small Scheme language implementation written in C language. Obvious usages are:

• as a tiny engine for running plugins and other extensions in your C/C++ program (suppose you want to change some part
  of logic of your program without recompiling it every time).
• as a sandbox to learn the language (as it supports most features except those which will make implementation not "tiny")
• as utility script-running tool, even to create CGI-scripts for web-server

The original is principally developed as tinyscheme.sourceforge.net.

This offspring was cloned from rev125 there. Currently my wish is to bring it bit closer to R7RS-small standard
(original is close to R5RS of 1998).

Recent Changes and Improvements:

• basic bytevector functions implemented
• UTF-8 is now supported in strings and characters with minor limitation of case-conversion not extended above ASCII range
• symbols are case-sensitive by default (to match R6RS, R7RS and speed-up a bit)
• fixes for various bugs (many of them found in "open" state in original repo)
• tests in simple shell scripts are added
• removed some old unused code (eg. objlist implementation)
• code cleanup / formatting (with indent -br -brs -brf -nut -ci4 -nlp -npsl -npro -npcs -ce *.c)
