    Lo and behold, now #OwlLisp (a dialect of #Scheme without anything mutable in it):

    Also #OwlLisp does not follow SRFI-1 or anything like it in argument lists. I had to keep the compiler's source code handy to look up, for instance, how to call "lunfold".

    Some things I’m used to having work in #Scheme did not work, it seems in part due to implementation limitations. But also because some things I expected to be procedures were NOT procedures.

    In other cases, it was that most Schemes did a thing by assigning a value to a variable, whereas #OwlLisp was doing it a different way (without syntactic sugar available to make the expected way work).

    I added #OwlLisp to the repertoire of my answers to the #ContinuedFractions arithmetic draft-task on #RosettaCode:

    I have added a #RosettaCode language page for #OwlLisp --

    Category:Owl Lisp - Rosetta Code rosettacode.org/wiki/Category:

    I suspect there are some Owl Lisp programs already on Rosetta Code, but classified under "Ol", which is Otus Lisp, a different language. I suppose it mightn’t be a bad idea to find these and move them. If anyone hath the gumption.

    And my first ever program in #OwlLisp --

    Using a PURELY functional Scheme requires at least a small change in thinking. (Also it seems not to have unary minus sign.)
