@top Geiser

Geiser is a collection of Emacs major and minor modes that conspire with
one or more Scheme interpreters to keep the Lisp Machine Spirit alive.
It draws inspiration (and a bit more) from environments such as Common
Lisp's Slime, Factor's FUEL, Squeak or Emacs itself, and does its best
to make Scheme hacking inside Emacs (even more) fun.

Or, to be precise, what i consider fun. Geiser is thus my humble
contribution to the dynamic school of expression, and a reaction against
what i perceive as a derailment, in modern times, of standard Scheme
towards the static camp. Because i prefer growing and healing to poking
at corpses, the continuously running Scheme interpreter takes the center
of the stage in Geiser. A bundle of Elisp shims orchestrates the dialog
between the Scheme interpreter, Emacs and, ultimately, the schemer,
giving her access to live metadata.
