Is there anyway for us to look up symbols of one module like Python dir(object) to look up the attributes (methods and attributes)

The Chez Scheme API is decent. It would be good to standardize in a SRFI. @jcubic is right that when compiling Scheme code, the compiler may throw away the information...

Here's [a `dir()` for Chibi and Gauche](https://github.com/lassik/scheme/blob/master/library-inspection.sld).

SRFI 17 and 28 are built into Chicken. They don't have their own source files (or `.so` files) because they just re-export procedures from other libraries. Search for `srfi-17` and...

Every Scheme REPL knows about all the libraries and what they export. We just don't have a standard API to ask the REPL about those things.

AFAIK Scheme libraries are not first-class objects in most implementations, but they could be. RnRS allows that.

There are two levels: * The library/module level (in Scheme, the words "library" and "module" mean the same thing). For example, `(import (srfi 1))` imports the `(srfi 1)` library. The...

`spiffy.egg` says `(dependencies ... srfi-1 ...)` which probably means that it requires the `srfi-1` egg. But that could be changed to any other egg that provides a working `(srfi 1)`...

Inaccurate stable version designation when not building in a git clone

IMHO no build should ever say that it's an official version unless a build flag is explicitly given to say so. All builds (both with and without git) should be...
