Quick overview

Winscm is a programminf environment for the Scheme language under Windows. It has been developped by Alain Taquet, who was student in Maîtrise d'Informatique, during its last year project under the responsability of Jean-Christophe Routier.

Winscm is used for 2 years at the University of Lille 1, in the initiation to programming course followed by the first year students of DEUG MIAS.

This environment links an interpreter (by default, it is Aubrey Jaffer's Scm) and one or more editor windows. A mouse click is enough to evaluate in the interpreter all or a part of the expressions written in the editor.

In each editor window it is possible to have a linear (classical) point of biew of the text or a "expression by expression" point of view, then a browser allows to navigate through expressions.

A quick presentation of the sotware can be found here.

The help of the language in the software is very light... It will be better to replace the Scheme.hlp by the r4rs file.

The software

Windows 95 version : winscm95.zip, don't forget the readme95.txt

Windows 3.1* version : winscm3.1.zip, don't forget the readme31.txt. (You will need win32s)

in order to have menus in english : wscmeng.zip, extract it in custom directory and read the readme.txt file.
