Hourly snapshots. I'll request to sitewranglers to re-enable our svn
repository.

Our scheme interpreter is not compatible for any Scheme specification,
because it's based on siod, an old scheme interpreter. (Therefore, it
*may* be compatible with old Scheme specification, such as R3RS. But I
don't know such a old specification...) We recognize this
incomtatibility as a problem. To solve this, now Kazuki writing small,
R5RS compatible interpreter. (I guess it doesn't support some features
in R5RS such as continuation, floating point, because they are not need
for input method. But I don't know detailed information.)

Yes, if I remembered correctly. We don't have enough official user
manual.

If you write us the user manual, we will be very happy!
