I will only note that mit-scheme print everything literally including
all the quotes (quasiquotes unquote-spicing unquote)-- which is good
for reading and pretty to look at. (All the quotes look like some sort
of swearing when you are not used to it)
MIT Scheme's output can be configured by setting the variable
*UNPARSE-ABBREVIATE-QUOTATIONS?* --
(pp ''`,, at foo)
;; Output:
;(quote (quasiquote (unquote (unquote-splicing foo))))
(fluid-let ((*unparse-abbreviate-quotations?* #t))
(pp ''`,, at foo))
;; Output:
;'`,, at foo
It would surprise me if Gambit had no similar facility for configuring
the format of its output.
