Hi Prabhakar!<br> This is a nice sharing. Have you by chance bought that app and actually run on your iPhone/iPad? I just wonder whether this is console based REPL only, or having graphics support as DrRacket does, how is the performance (pure interpreter mode or JIT enabled?). I'm not clear if Apple actually ever has explicitly restricted applications bundled with a programming language interp, but they seems disallowing application to download *script* or other executable files from other places. I think we can provide a DrRacket like programming/educating/developing environment. MonoTouch is a good example to run another programming runtime over the native platform.<br>

I stopped reading comp.lang.scheme some time ago, so I wasn't aware until just now that in early May, Marc Feeley succeeded in placing a Gambit Scheme universal app (iPhone/iPad) in the App Store.<br>

This is the first indication I had that Apple had relaxed their App Store restrictions sufficiently to permit real programming language interpreters. I thought others on this list might be interested in knowing this fact. --PR<br>
