There is a well designed implementation of scheme called scsh that
specifically targets systems programming.  guile has a partial port of
scsh available from ANON-CVS.  You can get the scsh manual by going to
www.schemers.org and following links through implementations to scsh.

It is possible to systems programming without the scsh interfaces,
although it's less convenient.  Post some questions about what you're
trying to do, and I'll try to get you started.
