==== Description: ====
Ikarus Scheme is a free optimizing incremental native-code compiler for
Scheme as specified in the Revised^6 Report on the Algorithmic Language
Scheme.
Ikarus Scheme is free to download, to distribute, to modify, and to
redistribute. The complete source is available according to the GNU General
Public License (GPL3).
Ikarus Scheme is an optimizing compiler, so your Scheme code will run fast
without the need to port hot spots to C "for performance". With an incremental
compiler, you don't need a separate compilation step to make your program run
fast. The best part is that the compiler itself is fast, capable of compiling
thousands of lines of code per second.
Finally, Ikarus Scheme is an R6RS compiler. R6RS is the latest revision of
the Scheme standard. The current release of Ikarus supports over 94% of the
most important features R6RS, and later releases will bring Ikarus closer to
full R6RS conformance. R6RS libraries, scripts, record types, condition
system, exception handling, unicode strings, bytevectors, hashtable, and
enumerations are among the supported features.


==== Other Comments: ====
Re: "My project runs primarily on a completely free OS":

My project does not have a primary OS: it runs equally well on many operating
systems, most are free, some are not.
