  Scheme-to-C
       
           A {Scheme} {compiler} written in {C} that emits C
          and is embeddable in C.  Scheme-to-C was written by Joel
          Bartlett of {Digital Western Research Laboratory}.  Version
          15mar93 translates a superset of Revised**4 Scheme to C that


          is then compiled by the {native} {C} compiler for the {target
          machine}.  This design results in a portable system that
          allows either stand-alone Scheme programs or programs written
          in both compiled and interpreted Scheme and other languages.
          It supports "{expansion passing style}" {macros}, {foreign
          function} calls, {records}, and interfaces to {Xlib} ({Ezd}
          and {Scix}).
       
          Scheme-to-C runs on {VAX}, {ULTRIX}, {DECstation}, {Alpha AXP}
          {OSF}/1, {Windows 3.1}, {Apple Macintosh} 7.1, {HP 9000/300},
          {HP 9000/700}, {Sony News}, {SGI} {Iris} and {Harris}
          {Nighthawk}, and other {Unix}-like {88000} systems.  The
          earlier 01nov91 version runs on {Amiga}, {SunOS}, {NeXT}, and
          {Apollo} systems.
