Well, given a file (which you only have to write once) containing -----------8<--------------- (use-modules (ice-9 r5rs)) (use-syntax (ice-9 syntax)) -----------8<--------------- you can run Guile as "guile -l ..." to get an R5RS interpreter.

Maybe 1.8 will be better. Yes, I see. But 1.8 will indeed be better; the current CVS only has problems with - 1.1 - for which I have a candidate fix - 8.3 - which the comment in r5rs_pitfall.scm suggests is debatable - the final map/call/cc test, where Guile gives "not call/cc safe, but probably tail recursive and efficient", and which the comment suggests is acceptable. > > Scott Thanks!
