I have read (glanced at) some papers concerning rush which was a high
level language meant to look like tcl-tk and which was translated into
scheme. I got these from the web but have no idea where I got them. 

\bibitem[SBD94]{rush-tcl94}
Adam Sah, Jon Blow and Brian Dennis.  
``An Introduction to the Rush Language.''
Proc. Tcl'94.  June, 1994.

\bibitem[SB94]{rush-vhll94}
Adam Sah and Jon Blow.
``The Design and Implementation of the Rush Language.''
forthcoming.


If I remember correctly they were trying to translate rush into Tcl
first but had a lot of trouble and decided to do a translation to
scheme. 
If you cannot find this stuff, send me a mail and I will browse my
huge archive of unread papers and try to send them to you.
