- I'm trying to hack together a simple unix-like shell for my mac
- using scm4a11 (the only scheme interpreter that's small enough to share
- an 800K floppy with an old version of MacOS). Reading and writing
- to files is easy enough, but are there any (standard) advanced file-
- handling techniques in scheme? In particular, I'm trying to write a
- program to list directory contents (like 'ls') and one to remove files
- (like 'rm'). I've already written 'cat'.
-
- Any references would be helpful. Thanks.
