[gentoo-user] [OT] Scheme interpreter with readline support?

Hello all,

I have been searching for a scheme interpreter that has readline support (at 
least I think it is readline support) whereby I could have a sort of 
expression history where I could use the up arrow or whatever for access to 
previous expressions and also use the left arrow to edit the current 
expression if I make a boo-boo. Sort of like the embedded python interpreter 
or Ruby's irb...

I have tried mzscheme, chicken, and guile so far, and none seem to have this. 
I am also aware of environments such as drscheme, but I really just want a 
simple console interpreter.

I thought I would ask here rather than installing and trying all ~25 
interpreters in dev-scheme

Thanks,
-d

Nevermind. I have found gambit and it is perfect...
