Any daemon or server written in a pure functional (lazy) style. Likewise any Unix-style transducer (pipe) hooked up to unbounded input. Such a program might have a pure lazy part that produces as a result a lazy string or list. Then a small driver part interacts with the world - and the simplest to do that is to just display or write[-simple] the result, This goes beyond R7RS, but I don't think we want to discourage experimentation with lazy or hybrid lazy/eager programming. -- --Per Bothner per@x http://per.bothner.com/ _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list Scheme-reports@x http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
