Why? We want to make sure that people are happy with DrScheme as an
environment and, as a person who is on record as saying "I do
everything with emacs except eat", I must say that I much prefer
DrScheme over Emacs these days. I do occasionally switch to Emacs to do
things quickly, in the same way I switch to vi for text things when
Emacs would be a pain.
There is a MrEd mode for Emacs around and perhaps it makes you happy.
But programming with modules in DrScheme is a charm!
