Introduction ============ Picrin is a lightweight scheme implementation intended to comply with full R7RS specification. Its code is written in pure C99 and does not requires any special external libraries installed on the platform. - R7RS compatibility - reentrant design (all VM states are stored in single global state object) - bytecode interpreter (based on stack VM) - direct threaded VM - internal representation by nan-boxing - conservative call/cc implementation (users can freely interleave native stack with VM stack) - exact GC (simple mark and sweep, partially reference count is used as well) - string representation by rope data structure - support full set hygienic macro transformers, including implicit renaming macros - extended library syntax - advanced REPL support (multi-line input, etc) - tiny & portable library (all functions will be in `libpicrin.so`) Homepage -------- Currently picrin is hosted on Github. You can freely send a bug report or pull-request, and fork the repository. https://github.com/picrin-scheme/picrin Documentation ------------- See http://picrin.readthedocs.org/ IRC --- There is a chat room on chat.freenode.org, channel #picrin.
