Embedding Scheme in the Real World
Dr. Paul Steckler

Abstract

One of the goals of PLT Scheme is to provide libraries and tools that make
Scheme useful for workaday programming. With that goal in mind, DrScheme
comes with libraries for XML, HTTP, email and other network protocols,
regular-expression matching, and more. I will describe the software that we
have built in two particular areas, components and databases, and discuss
how software in those areas might be extended.
