Best Scheme implementation for Emacs and The Little Schemer?

819 Views Asked by At

I've tried Geiser and I keep getting this error message:

Unable to start REPL:
Searching for program: permission denied, guile.exe

I'm on Windows 7 by the way. Also, here's my Geiser path in my .emacs:

(load-file "~/.emacs.d/elpa/geiser-20140326.951/geiser.el")

I'm not sure how to fix this since Google isn't returning anything useful and I'm not overly familiar with Emacs or Geiser. I'd really appreciate some help with this or a better/easier Scheme implementation so I can finally start TLS.

Geiser does not provide Scheme. You need to install them for it to use. It requires Racket 5.3.4 or better, or guille 2.0.9 or better, as seen on this page:

This is a link for Racket:

Sorry can't help you any more, but I don't have windows. I use geiser with guile under linux.
