Vicare Scheme
=============
Vicare Scheme is an R6RS compliant fork of Ikarus Scheme, aiming to be a
native compiler for R6 Scheme producing single threaded programs running
on Intel x86 32-bit processors; Vicare is officially not ready for
64-bit machines. "Vicare" is pronounced the etruscan way.
The latest version of this package can be downloaded from Github,
check first for the latest tagged revision:
<https://github.com/marcomaggi/vicare/tags>
and then in the download area:
<http://github.com/marcomaggi/vicare/downloads>
the home page of the Vicare project is at:
<http://marcomaggi.github.com/vicare.html>
development takes place at:
<http://github.com/marcomaggi/vicare/>
this project has a mailing list:
<http://groups.google.com/group/vicare-users>
It is suggested to use Vicare Scheme along with Nausicaa, a large
collection of R6 Scheme libraries:
<http://marcomaggi.github.com/nausicaa.html>
Notes for revision 0.2d1
------------------------
* It appears that Ikarus' mailing list is working no more, so this
project now has its own mailing list for announcements and
discussions:
<http://groups.google.com/group/vicare-users>
* Added library (vicare) exporting the same bindings of (ikarus).
* Review of bytevector functions.
* Introduced the configuration option "--disable-arguments-validation"
to exclude at expansion-time code validating arguments to functions.
At present only a few modules support this feature.
* Review of command line options and execution modes. Added options
"--print-assembly" and "--print-optimizer", at present neither very
useful, nor human-friendly.

Google led me to advice on how to pronounce "etruscan" in English, and

advertisements of Finnish lessons.
How would an Etruscan pronounce "Vicare"? /vi-'kar-eh/?

Well, that's certainly the Tuscan way.
