Threads

Post by Jonsul » Mon Sep 13, 2010 3:21 am

I've seen some implementations utilize threads such as racket. I was wondering what the standard way is in r6rs? If there is any. I read on lambda-the-ultimate a post where they said threads or processes were a priority for the standard. I've searched the r6rs docs but haven't found much and google isn't helping either.

Thanks

Scheme doesn't have a standard threading mechanism. I think they're looking at creating one for a follow-on standard (R7RS?).
