I just tried Chibi, but even with (chibi repl) I think its REPL is not as good as CSI with GNU Readline. I guess that in my ideal world I would like to play with a mature Scheme with many modules, that can be compiled, has FFI, a nice interpreter, and plans to support R7RS... So, I guess that what I want doesn't exist. Cheers, Daniel. -- When an engineer says that something can't be done, it's a code phrase that means it's not fun to do.
