Scheme In One Defun, or humorously Scheme In One Day (SIOD) is a
dialect of the language Lisp, a small-size implementation of the dialect Scheme, written in C and designed to be embedded inside C programs. It is notable for being perhaps the smallest practical implementation of a Lisp-like language. It was written by George J. Carrette originally. It is free and open-source software released under a GNU Lesser General Public License
(LGPL).
Features
SIOD features include:
- Implements the original version of Scheme from the Lambda Papers, but none of the modern language standards.
- Represents a very early use of conservative garbage collection in a Lisp interpreter, a method later copied by SCM and Guile.
- prologue followed by a fast-loading binary representation of the parse treeto be interpreted.
Applications
- GNU Image Manipulation Program (Script-Fu, until GIMP 2.4 was released.[1]
- Siag Office – Scheme in a Grid (SIAG) is a spreadsheet application using SIOD as a base.
- Festival Speech Synthesis System – SIOD is its underlying command interpreter.[2]
