This Manual

The core of the Scheme programming language is described in the Revised Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme. This manual assumes familiarity with core Scheme and only contains specific information specific to MzScheme.

MzScheme provides four notable extensions to core Scheme:

• A class and object system (see section 2.13).
• Pre-emptive threads and multiple global variable spaces (see section 2.14).
• An exception system that is used for all primitive errors (see section 2.23).
• A unit system for separate compilation of program components (see section 2.16).

MzScheme is fully -compliant, although command line or internal flags can change some features affecting compliance. (For example, case-sensitivity can be enabled.)   For information about command line flags for the stand-alone console version of MzScheme, run with the ``-help'' flag.
