SchemeScript is a Scheme/Lisp editor plug-in for Eclipse. It is part of the SchemeWay project.

The goal of this plug-in is to provide a robust Scheme/Lisp editor to the professional Scheme/Lisp developers who also happen to use Eclipse for Java programming. Also, the plug-in can be subclassed and extended to provided custom editors for Scheme/Lisp-based languages.

SchemeScript embeds the Kawa and SISC interpreters, and can be readily used to connect to the SISC REPL of SISCweb-based web applications.

The latest available version is 1.2.15.

SchemeScript provides the following features:

• S-expressions-based editing à la Emacs;
• Parentheses matching and highlighting (with support for square brackets);
• mouse-copy;
• content assist (code completion, text hovers, context information);
• Find Definition (pressing F12 on a symbol will jump to the symbol's definition, if it is defined globally);
• header/chapter/section style comment insertion, with the outline view showing the document structure;
• generic integration with any Scheme interpreter; and
• generic integration with a remote REPL over a TCP/IP connection (the default configuration makes it SISCweb-ready).
