A Scheme-like, lispy language, implemented in JavaScript.

Short Description:

A Lispy language implemented in Javascript.

Longer Description:

  • A JavaScript implementation of R. Kent Dybvig's Heap Based Scheme as described in Chapter 3 of "Three Implementation Models for Scheme". http://github.com/z5h/zb-lisp/raw/master/ThreeImplementationModelsForScheme.pdf
  • Supports tail call optimization and continuations.
  • Ability to implement Scheme functions with JavaScript functions.

Supported forms include: define, quote, lambda, if, set!, call/cc, =, cons, car, cdr, null?, pair?, +, -, , /, map, foldl, foldr, list, display, newline, not, let, "named let", let

Macro support is the next big step. Things will likely be quiet here while I work through that.
