in thread If Perl was my first language...

A good place to start with Scheme on Windows is DrScheme, as it has a nice GUI with some decent documentation to boot and works straight out of the box (see. zip file). Bringing it back to perl, the ever-inventive Autrijus has made Inline::MzScheme which allows you to interface with mzscheme within perl. If that's not enough the industrious samtregar has created Inline::Guile which is an interface to Guile, the GNU implementation of Scheme (as I understand it).

    Thanks, broquaint!

    I just installed DrScheme and I'm now having a little fun with the parentheses :)

      kiat,

      While not a new language per say, you might be interested in a module I have written called fp. Its something I had kicking around for a while, just an experiment in functional programming in perl really. I recently uploaded an update to it which includes a sub-package full of higher-order functions which might be of interest.
