Anybody know anything about "Scheme in One Defun"? http://people.delphi.com/gjc/siod.html In particular, it looks as though KIllustrator (a drawing program for KDE) is considering using SIOD instead of guile (perhaps they don't know about guile) as a scripting language for their application. Perhaps a guile proponent should suggest to the devs that they consider guile? See: http://wwwiti.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/~sattler/killustrator.html (SIOD is mentioned as the last related link). Greg
