Re: Geiser with MIT Scheme

[Nicholas Papadonis]

I needed:

(setq geiser-active-implementation '(mit))

and M-x geiser

to get t.scm modeline to show (Scheme Mit/A) and allow evaluation with C-x C-e.

Questions:

1. I note the evaluated _expression_ from the scheme buffer appears under the modeline.  When I use MIT Scheme Edwin this appears the same behavior.  When Edwin uses the *scheme* buffer and I evaluate an _expression_ using C-x C-e the result is printed below the evaluated _expression_.  How does Geiser accomplish this?  So far it only appears this functionality is similar using the *Geiser Mit REPL* buffer.

2. Does Geiser provide the same debugging capabilities of MIT Scheme Edwin?  Just trying to get a comparison.

Does anyone know if this works?  

I type M-x geiser in Emacs 27.1 using Geiser packages from MELPA.  I then C-x C-f t.scm and try evaluating an _expression_ (+ 1 1) using C-x C-e.  Emacs responds that there is no Geiser REPL for this buffer and to try M-x geiser.  All M-x geiser does is spawn the MIT Scheme REPL and does not allow evaluation of arbitrary Scheme buffers.

Any ideas whats going on?  Perhaps I'm using this wrong?
