escm Description

escm - Text file processor that expands embedded Scheme expressions in the input file escm is a text file processor that expands embedded Scheme expressions in the input file. Unlike other text-embedded language processors, escm does not depend on a particular Scheme implementation; you can use your favorite Scheme.escm is a filter program which takes a text with embedded Scheme exressions, copies it to the output with evaluating the Scheme expressions. You can use the power of Scheme to preprocess various text files, including CGI scripts.Conceptually escm is the same as ePerl except that escm uses Scheme instead of Perl. In implementation level, however, escm is slightly different: the body of escm is a simple-minded preprocessor that converts the input text to a Scheme program, which then will be evaluated by a Scheme interpreter to generate the final output.Because of this architecture, you can use your choice of Scheme implementation.NOTE: ecsm is licensed and distributed under the terms of the BSD License.
