Development tools of/for Scheme implementations

khinsen

Which Scheme implementations have good development tools? Where "good" means "as close as possible to Common Lisp and Smalltalk", i.e. support for interactive execution, amendment, data inspection, etc.

So far I have used Racket and Guile. Racket has quite fancy tools in the form of DrRacket, but the basics are still missing: modify a structure, and you have to re-run your program from the start. Guile is much worse, even Python has better support for interactive development.

How about other Scheme implementations?

MIT/GNU Scheme provides an experience and tools close to traditional Emacs-based Common Lisp environments.

Thanks, I will have a look! In my mind, MIT Scheme was in my mind a thing of the past, but I looked it up and found that it is actively maintained and even support R7RS-small!
