Chicken is a compiler for the Scheme programming language. Chicken
produces portable, efficient C, supports almost all of the current
Scheme language standard, the Revised Report on the Algorithmic Language
Scheme (R5RS), and includes many enhancements and extensions.

Includes a full-featured interactive interpreter as well as an
optimizing batch compiler.

Chicken Scheme will use better warnings when it has access to module database.
You can generate the database by running `chicken-install -update-db'.

There are also a lot of extensions called 'eggs' available for your use.
You can list and install eggs using the 'chicken-install' command.

Due to binary name conflicts the csc and csi binaries have been
renamed to chicken-csc and chicken-csi.
