Agree. That was just to show the first step wasn't too hard with a bit of hand-holding. Skip, I found the following script from 2013 which may be of some help. Slightly modified from what Feeley had produced. I was able to make my Scheme digits-of-pi code work but a port will require bunch more work. Feeley was open to adding that to the Gambit distribution.... ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T480d89e0fb47654b-M7a46bbd901df2b0b17daf4c8 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
