Nausicaa is a distribution  of Scheme language libraries for
R6RS  Scheme  implementations.   Currently  it  attempts  to
support Ikarus, Larceny, Mosh and Ypsilon.

  Nausicaa/Scheme   is  the   core   package;  it   provides
foundation  libraries and  implements the  infrastructure of
the foreign-functions interface.  It comes in two flavors:

* The  full  distribution,  with documentation  and  foreign
  functions    interface    included.    Its    installation
  infrastructure  requires a  GNU+Linux system  (for details
  see the "README.build" file).

* The pure Scheme distribution, includes only the sources of
  the libraries, ready to  be unpacked in their installation
  destination.
