Re: [Chicken-users] scheme prompt in a browser?

[Kristian Lein-Mathisen]

Hi Jim,

I don't know if you were looking for other _javascript_ interpreters, but there's repl.it, which has a Scheme interpreter based on BiwaScheme: http://repl.it/languages/Scheme. May be helpful for your students.

There's also this omelette recipe from Gazette 10:
http://gazette.call-cc.org/issues/10.html#omelette-recipes---tips-and-tricks

It's a bit old and uses html-tags, which is going to become obsolete in
a near future (it would be nice to port it to SXML), but it still works
with the current awful.  The UI is pretty simple, though.

Differently from the awful web-repl, it uses the sandbox egg for safe
evaluation of expressions.  The awful web-repl will run anything you
type, so it can be a bit dangerous in some contexts.

Best wishes.
Mario
