Bugs

(2010-1-19) - A bug in the reader when Muddy is reading from a pipe (echo "#t" | muddy.tcl), probably becouse I am not testing the end of file properly.

News

(2010-1-18) Muddy is compliant with bootstrap-scheme v0.14. I need to fix bugs in the reader.

Accumulator Generator:

    >(define (foo n) 
       (lambda (i) 
          (set! n (+ n i)) n))
    >(define acc (foo 3))
    ok
    > (acc 1)
    4
    > (acc 1)
    5 
    > (acc 10)
    15
    > (acc 0)
    15   

(2010-1-17) Muddy is compliant with bootstrap-scheme v0.12
(2010-1-16) Currently the code is compliant with bootstrap-scheme v0.11
