[comp.lang.scheme] Unwind-Protect and Continuations

pmcy@cl.cam.ac.uk (Phillip Yelland on jenny) (10/03/88)

There's a paper from Indiana U. entitled "Constraining Control", by Wand and
Friedman (I think), which shows how unwind-protect and similar facilities may
be coded using 'first-class' continuations.
If there's interest, I can go away and look it up in greater detail.
