NAME

       mit-scheme - Scheme development environment

SYNOPSIS

       mit-scheme [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       MIT/GNU  Scheme  is  an  implementation  of  the Scheme programming language, providing an
       interpreter, compiler, source-code debugger, integrated Emacs-like  editor,  and  a  large
       runtime  library.   MIT/GNU Scheme is best suited to programming large applications with a
       rapid development cycle.

OPTIONS

       These are some of the more  common  command-line  options.   For  full  information  about
       available options, see the Texinfo documentation.

       --heap NBLOCKS
              Specify  the  size  of the heap in 1024-word blocks.  The default heap size is 4096
              blocks.

       --stack NBLOCKS
              Specify the size of the stack in 1024-word blocks.  The default stack size  is  128
              blocks.

       --library PATH
              Specify  where to look for Scheme's binary files.  PATH should be a colon-separated
              list of directory names.

       --no-init-file
              Don't load the user's init file.

       --edit
              Start the text editor automatically.

       --eval EXPRESSION...
              Evaluate the specified expressions after starting Scheme.

       --load FILENAME...
              Load the specified files after starting Scheme.

       --option-summary
              Print a summary of the command-line options, including default values.

FILES

       /usr/lib/mit-scheme-<architecture>/
              Support files.

       /usr/bin/mit-scheme-<architecture>
              Architecture-specific executable.

       /usr/bin/mit-scheme
              Link to architecture-specific executable, to allow  multiarch  installation.   When
              multiple architectures are installed, use update-alternatives(8) to choose.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       MIT/GNU  Scheme  refers  to  a  large  number  of  environment variables.  See the Texinfo
       documentation for details.

EXAMPLES

       To use the evaluator in a command-line interface, type:

       mit-scheme

       To start the editor and use it as a front-end to the evaluator, type:

       mit-scheme --edit
