Now I decided to write SRFI-1 list procedure library in C for
considering memory consumption, you pointed out, and good
C interface.

Development cost is not the problem (Maybe 1 or 2 days are
needed for getting things done). But this feature should be
configurable, because I intend SigScheme is not only for uim.
It aims to be embedded in various programs:-)

regards.
