Docs for compose, in section 6.9.6, might better read "Compose proc with
the procedures in rest, such that [the procedures in rest are applied in
order, followed by] proc last, and return the resulting procedure. The
given procedures must have compatible arity." The existing text seems to
imply that only the last procedure in rest is executed before proc.

Hi David,
Sorry for the late reply.

The text was changed in the meantime to this:
-- Scheme Procedure: compose proc1 proc2 ...
Compose PROC1 with the procedures PROC2 ... such that the last
PROC argument is applied first and PROC1 last, and return the
resulting procedure. The given procedures must have compatible
arity.
How does that sound?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
