[MIT-Scheme-users] Accessing the edwin debugger within emacs

[Aaron Maxwell]

Hi,

I'm running MIT scheme as an inferior process within gnu emacs 22.  I'm trying 
to access the interactive debugger that Edwin provides as well, without 
success so far.  In edwin, the debugger is launched via the command 
inferior-repl-debug, and in my installation is defined in a band file, which 
I supply to the scheme proces

In gnumacs, the inferior scheme process is launched through the "mechanics" 
command, defined in my .emacs like so: (the argument to run-scheme is one 
long string - I broke it up into several lines here for clarity)

(defun mechanics ()
  (interactive)
  (run-scheme "/home/amax/opt/scmutils/mit-scheme/bin/scheme 
    --band /home/amax/opt/scmutils/mit-scheme/lib/edwin-mechanics.com 
    --heap  6000 
    --library /home/amax/opt/scmutils/mit-scheme/lib"))

(It's called "mechanics" because I'm running it as part of the SCMUtils system 
[1], but that is a side point.  The band file is edwin-mechanics.com.)

So my question boils down to:  if I launch MIT scheme as an inferior scheme 
process to Gnu Emacs, how can I make functions defined in a band file 
accessible through emacs?

Thanks in advance.
