Sure. Pull up Dave Bridgham's page:

And follow the pointers to scheme and the scheme underground.

It's an amazingly powerful and concise language -- I have trouble
with it because my brain is stuck in C/C++ styles.

There are a fair number of implementations out there, some with X11
toolkits. It is efficient enough that it is in some experimental RMON
network monitors which have to operate in quasi-real-time.

Let me know if you need more pointers.

Glad to here that you are interested.

By-the-way, what part of the world contains Verity? Are you in the SF Bay
area or ??
