Elk can also be used as a stand-alone implementation of +the Scheme programming language. + +One purpose of the Elk project is to end the recent proliferation of +mutually incompatible Lisp-like extension languages. Instead of +inventing and implementing yet another extension language, application +programmers can integrate Elk into their application to make it +extensible and highly customizable. |
