Ahh, good to know. Sounds like it'll be OK then.

Heh, if there's one thing I hate it's wasted effort. ;)

TinyScheme:

http://tinyscheme.sourceforge.net/home.html

It's not the prettiest code I've ever seen, but it's small, not too
hard to read, and complete enough to be useful from what I can see. I
think it'll be an interesting project.

I am still thinking of maybe writing my own Scheme implementation, but
there are already N of them out there. If I can use something that's
compatible license-wise and reasonably functional, so much the better.
