IntelliJ Idea is best Java development environment out there. It can be an IDE or a text editor—configure it however you wish because whatever you do it will be simple. At its simplest you only need 4 settings to make it better out of the box:
BiwaScheme is a Scheme interpreter for web browsers.

Here it is.
Finding Python’s package directories:
python -c 'import sys, pprint; pprint.pprint(sys.path)'

Sagittarius Scheme System is a “mostly R6RS Scheme system”.

The following all intend to support R7RS small:
- Per Bothner (Kawa)
- Will Clinger (Larceny)
- Shiro Kawai (Gauche)
- Manuel Serrano (Bigloo) – “not sure about libraries”
- Alex Shinn (Chibi) – “already fully implemented, but lacking tests”
- Felix Winkelmann (Chicken)
The following were less committal, but open, and their implementations are flexible enough to implement R7RS in third-party code:
- Kent Dybvig (Chez) – “if it’s as simple as you say I don’t see why not”
- Matthew Flatt (Racket) – “if there’s sufficient user demand”
- Andy Wingo (Guile) – “probably”
The following are simply unable to implement R7RS or uninterested in standards:
- Taylor Campbell (MIT) – “MIT lacks the infrastructure for modules”
- Jonathan Shapiro (TinyScheme) – thinks call/cc should be removed
- Jeffery Mark Siskind (Stalin) – “no longer working on Stalin”
- Michael Sperber (Scheme48) – “no time even for R6RS”
No one refused to implement based on the content of the standard, or cited any features as showstoppers.
That last part is important; R6RS didn’t have that quality.

Vicare Scheme is an experimental fork of Ikarus Scheme; “Vicare” is pronounced the etruscan way. While the long term aim of the project is still not clearly established, Vicare has the following short and midterm goals: fix bugs; push compliance with R6RS, keeping a pragmatic eye at issues; enhance the POSIX interface.
The thing is that Ikarushasn’t been maintained and Aziz seems to be busy with other things.
