Larceny User Manual
===================

[[LarcenyChapter]]

Larceny
-------

Larceny
implements the Scheme programming language
as defined by
<<Standards, IEEE Standard 1178-1990>>,
the
<<Standards, Revised^5^ Report>>,
the
<<Standards, Revised^6^ Report>>,
and
<<Standards, ERR5RS>>.
Those language standards serve as Larceny's primary documentation.

This manual describes aspects of Larceny that are not described
by the IEEE standard, the Revised Reports, or ERR5RS.
For the most current version of this manual, please see

developers at `<larceny@ccs.neu.edu>`, or submit a

Larceny's R5RS libraries
------------------------

The procedures described in this chapter are nonstandard.
Some are deprecated after being rendered obsolete by ERR5RS
or R6RS standard libraries.
Others still provide useful capabilities that the standard
libraries don't.
