Hi all

I'm quite new to Scheme, can write some basic functions etc., and  
would like to process and generate some XML in Scheme using SXML. I  
am running Gambit Scheme (the REPL tells me it is version "4.0 beta  
17"). I have downloaded and unpacked SXML and have had a look at the  
README files and the makefiles, but I'm still not sure what I need to  
do to use SXML within Gambit.

I wonder if anyone would be able to point me to, or send me by email,  
a very simple short tutorial on the very basics of getting stated  
using the library---just a few lines of Scheme is what I'm after.  
Once I've got started I'd hope to be able to use the existing  
documentation to use the library. I have found the article at (http:// 
www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/x-matters31.html), but the  
author uses Guile rather than Gambit and seems to refer to files that  
are not in the version of SXML I have, so the tutorial hasn't helped  
me much so far.

Many thanks in advance

Chris
