I am a newbie in this domain so I can not really answer you yet.

I'm using this project to teach myself a bit more about Lisps, so far 
the only one I know rather well is Emacs Lisp, hence the dynamic scoping 
we have at the moment in LispKit.

Scheme is on my list for sure !

but I encourage you to give it a try (and tell me if changes are 
required for a Scheme support); the code is actually very simple and 
short, the package reaches 20 kb only because it's packed with test 
cases and documentation.

there are some restrictions: $' instead of a plain ' for quoting, no 
composed-names etc.. but that's no big deal. things come along 
incredibly well !

plus the lisp code is nice to read with Shout

lots of fun to come :)
