STklos is a free Scheme System mostly conform to R5RS. The aim of this

* a simple to use module system
* implements the full tower of numbers defined in R5RS
* easy connection to the GTK+ toolkit
* Perl compatible regular expressions thanks to the PCRE package.
* tail recursive calls are properly implemented
Changes in this release:
This is a major version introducing support for the ScmPkg source
packaging system.
* Better support for lexical analyzer generation
* Added some support for fixnum operations
* Added here-strings support
* Added partial module import
* Macros can be local
* Added some peephole optimizations
