Sorry… That was not meant to be a comment on your work — just pointing out that Scheme is daunting enough to start learning without hearing that the main thing you’re planning to wrestle with (at least in the short term) is made up of "icky things". > I've not really had much of a wrestling match with markup and their commands > yet.
