Chibi-Scheme is a very small library intended for use as an extension
and scripting language in C programs. In addition to support for
lightweight VM-based threads, each VM itself runs in an isolated heap
allowing multiple VMs to run simultaneously in different OS threads.
Despite the small size, Chibi-Scheme attempts to do The Right Thing.
The default settings include:
- a full numeric tower, with rational and complex numbers
- full and seamless Unicode support
- low-level and high-level hygienic macros
- an extensible module system
Specifically, the default repl language contains all bindings from R7RS
small, available explicitly as the (scheme small) library. The language
is built in layers, however - see the manual for instructions on
compiling with fewer features or requesting a smaller language
on startup.
