Performant Scheme Interpreter Live Environment

on Parallax Propeller2

some decisions made so far:

• Scheme R5RS procedure set is the target, implemented in Pasm2.
• engage P2 features of:
  • XBYTE bytecode interpreter
  • EXECF/SKIPF optimizations
  • Cog pair LUT doubling and shared HUB RAM bytecode ring buffer
• ANSI IDE and Compiler on the P2, implemented in P2Schematic.
• really, everything else implemented in P2Schematic.
• Compiler automatically detects "thunk"able code sections to compile into separate bytecode streams for distribution across cogs, or potentially other P2 Schematic Edge modules via serial in an orchestrated manner.
• isp_octoport_serial handling 8 serial ports.
• dogfood our way into this as much as possible.

I tend to develop my thoughts in the Forum, and have plenty of unlinked pages in the Wiki to keep old notes and thinking... any/all of that may/maynot end up in code. as it all comes together, thinking will get tidied up.
