[plt-scheme] Creating Executable

The problem here seems to be that you are not instructing mzscheme to output 
anything.

Note that if you put those two expression in "double.scm" and you run it with 
"mzscheme -r double.scm", nothing will be printed.

You should try something along "(display (double 2))".
