    <p>This seems to be really too much to ask for, given the systematically outdated content on this topic that is scattered throughout the internet. </p> <p>I simply can't find a noiseless and up to date list of available Scheme implementations (except <a href="http://community.schemewiki.org/?scheme-faq-standards#implementations" rel="noreferrer">there</a>, but I'd have enjoyed a colorful feature summarizing table) so I'm asking the community instead of trying dozens of implementations of a language I don't master yet. Help me enjoy this amazing language.</p> <p>Requirements:</p> <ul> <li>Free (as in speech)</li> <li>Lightweight: no unnecessary libraries beyond the standard, must compile fast. Anything lighter than Guile qualifies as lightweight.</li> <li>R6RS (no troll please, I'm learning the language and feel the need to stick to something standard)</li> <li>No .NET, no JVM</li> <li>Should work at least on Linux</li> <li>Should work at least on x86 </li> <li>Easy FFI</li> <li>Bonus point for fast implementations (too bad Bigloo doesn't support R6RS).</li> </ul> <p>I'm currently using Ypsilon, that I find great, but not maintained since 2008. Guile can be a good competitor, but it seems quite heavy (and FFI is far easier with Ypsilon).</p> <p>I may be missing some quality implementations, so feel free to share your experiences.</p> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong> Thank you for your answers, I will go for Larceny, since it provides pretty much everything I am looking for. Happy scheming to all of you !</p>

    3. CONot trolling, but I doubt you'll find an R6RS implementation that meets *all* of these. You'll either end up compromising on "lightweight", "free" or one of the "lesser" (my word) requirements on this list.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
