I find this almost impossible to credit, as it's been a good decade or more
since I've seen a Scheme or Common Lisp that _didn't_ include a compiler!

Please name a platform that you wish to use, and I'll name a Scheme compiler
for it, if that would be helpful.  Alternatively, you can browse the Scheme
Repository, I believe at http://www.cs.indiana.edu/pub/scheme-repository/,
yourself.
