This is an announce for the 0.53 release of STklos.
STklos is a free Scheme System (nearly) conform to R5RS. The aim of this
implementation is to be fast as well as light. The implementation is
based on an ad-hoc Virtual Machine. STklos can also be compiled as a
library, so that one can easily embed it in an application.
The salient points of STklos are:
* efficient and powerful object system based on CLOS providing
- Multiple Inheritance,
- Generic Functions,
- Multi-methods
- an efficient MOP (Meta Object Protocol)
* a simple to use module system
* implements the full tower of numbers defined in R5RS
* easy connection to the GTK+ toolkit
* Perl compatible regular expressions thanks to the PCRE package.
* tail recursive calls are properly implemented
New in this release:
* Added support for SRFI-7
* Added support for SRFI-11
* Added support for SRFI-14
* Added support for SRFI-28
* Better LDAP support
* Added PRETTY-PRINTER
