/* The function
*
* char *Elk_Eval(char *expr);
*
* is similar to Tcl_Eval() in Tcl. It is called with a Scheme expression
* encoded as a C string and returns the result of evaluating the expression
* (as another C string), or a null pointer if an error has occured
* during evaluation.
*
* Elk_Eval() stores its result in a static buffer of fixed size; this
* can be improved easily by passing a buffer and a length as additional
* arguments.
