MrEd (http://www.plt-scheme.org/software/mred/) provides a nice (although simplistic) windowing toolkit for the mzScheme. I remember toying with that during my Lisp days. I remember toying with the Guile-Gtk too. I do not remember any details on the issue. However, in these days I would go for Kawa - scheme->java byte code compiler. (http://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/Restrictions.html) There are many options with regard to scheme + UI combo. I would consider ease of deployment, the audience and the time to develop before settling on a single tool. > --- Omer > My opinions, as expressed in this E-mail message, are mine alone. > They do not represent the official policy of any organization with which > I may be affiliated in any way. > WARNING TO SPAMMERS: at http://www.zak.co.il/spamwarning.html > > > ================================================================= > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with > the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command > echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
