seriose lisp programming

How/what libs?
Mainly sockets and SDL stuff.
Please tell me i can use these in scheme. I don't want to read steeles book on common lisp it's huge ;_;
currently i am using MIT/scheme.

I can see you're just too ACADEMIC to admit Scheme's inferiority. Carry on.

neither Scheme or Common Lisp have functions, they have procedures.
Wat? Check your goddamn facts. In CL they're called functions, and they are most certainly first-class. You clearly don't understand what Lisp-1s and -2s are.

I know damn well what the spirit of Scheme is: to give its users little twinges of academic glee every time they write a recursive iterative procedure by hand. I'm just telling OP about it.

Just out of interest; what is the standard way to use TCP/IP sockets in Common Lisp?
Well shit, just a minute ago you were telling me that the Scheme standard's lack of everything was a plus. Now lacking anything is a minus? Yes, it would be nice to have BSD sockets in the spec. If I had a time machine, I'd go back and tell the guys who wrote it that if they'd just write them in, Berkeley would free them in just a couple years and it would pay off big.
