>The ideological split emerged during the great dialectical conflict of the early 1990s within the Scheme community, dividing revolutionaries who insisted on large, modular Scheme codebases ("Permanent Modular Revolution") and reactionaries who championed the purity of "Scheme in One File." The modularist vanguard, led by Comrade Matthias Felleisen of the Racket Politburo, argued that true dialectical progress required collective libraries and communal code sharing across multiple modules.

Interesting, quoting from Fsharp's git repository:
> #F (Sharp-F or False) is a portable compiler/runtime for a minimalistic subset of the Scheme programming language. Compatibility with R5RS/R7RS Scheme programs is provided in a form of libraries written in #F itself.
This is really stinking cool. We have TinyScheme, s7 (a TinyScheme derivative), Chibi Scheme (which has become less tiny), and this. Like Doom, Scheme has become something you can have on even the smallest of systems; bloat is not an excuse not to use it.

Wait, is fopen deprecated? Is this just on Windows?

Is there #FIOF?
EDIT: s7
