Even if you want that, starting with the first few exercises in EoPL would probably be much more edifying than trying to transcribe the R5RS into an interpreter. 00:47:34 r2q2 [~user@c-67-163-71-226.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined #scheme 00:48:52 -!- gffa [~unknown@unaffiliated/gffa] has quit [Quit: sleep] 00:51:45 MIT press, no ebook available.
