But Scheme is not a scripting language; it is a full, general-purpose
programming language. If the GNU extension language will be Scheme,
then why not call it Scheme? Given that we already have Emacs-Lisp,
something like GNU-Scheme would be a logical choice.
But that's neither catchy, nor funny, and, therefore, impractical. ;-)
