Does anyone here have any experience with using the graphics part of mit-scheme? I am trying to write a little library so I can easily plot stuff for a class I'm taking. I want to try to get my teacher to let me use scheme instead of IDL (gross!) for plotting, and I want to write functions with similar functionality as corresponding functions in IDL. I'm using windoze, if that matters.

Chris, did you ever get this figured out? I've run into the same issue. Everywhere I look I can't get any instructions on how to enable graphics on MIT-Scheme if it's not already working: (enumerate-graphics-types) always returns an empty list for me.

Which version of Windows are you using? On my Windows 7 box with MIT Scheme 9.1, I get the following output for (enumerate-graphics-types)

(#[graphics-type 12 win32])

And after I get a handle to the graphics device using 'make-graphics-device', I am able to use all of the documented graphics procedures.
