At this point, I recommend getting the two books I mentioned earlier in the thread.

I like the idea of the end user "plugging in" rules into some of the more advanced procedures. One way to go about it is to use parameters. A simple example would be:

    (sin (/ pi 2))

versus:

    (parameterize ((angle-mode 'degrees))
        (sin 90))

It would also be useful for adding additional rules to an integration procedure, or an expression simplifier, for example.

  And what about weird  S-expressions?  Would it be possible
to implement the operations in "Structure and Interpretation
of Classical Mechanics"[1]?

I've heard reports of folks exploring SICM with a traditional CAS instead of Scheme, so I don't see why not.
