In the May-issue of Byte a scheme implementation for PC's is reviewed. Its
name is EdScheme, version 3.2 and comes from Lambda Publications, UK. It is
small and has to be, it can only make use of a small amount of memory for
garbage-collected data. It has its own editor, but poorly integrated with the
evaluator. The language includes fixnums and floats and functions for
text-windowing and Turbo-style turtle graphics.
Has anyone tried EdScheme, it seems like a nice scheme for use in education
because of its size and graphics functions. Does anyone know of rumours of
future releases, such as being able to use more memory? I will make a summary
of responses.
