Hello, I've posted a request for scoops sources to this list recently. I read a redistribution of this list from a machine in Finland which apparently missed the digests 108 - 113 and 115. Since I can't find them in the archives there I don't know if anyone answered my query and so I need to repeat my question. If there are no news about scoops maybe somebody could send the digests I missed anyway. Something else: since some weeks I use XScheme and I had similar problems as Marc Craig Carroll (Digest #118), and others: XScheme - Version 0.16 > (define env (let ((var1 1)) (the-environment))) env > (environment-bindings env) ((var1 . 1)) > (eval '(define var2 2) env) var2 > (environment-bindings env) ((var1 . 1)) > var2 2 > (environment-bindings (the-environment)) () When I look how environments are implemented I can understand this behaviour but is this still Scheme? Nevertheless I find XScheme an interesting implementation which is particulary useful for me because I can easily entend it (I use it for controlling a DSP to do sound processing). I would like to get in touch with other people using XScheme so that we can exchange bug fixes (I fixed some weird ones already) and communicate about and coordinate further development. I tried to reach David Betz but didn't succeed yet (is this still the address where to reach him: 'zinn!mispmag!dbetz@decvax.dec.com' ? - if you are listening David, please contact me!!!) I am ready to organize (moderate) something like a XScheme users group - who is interested and could give me some hints how to do it?
