Very nice little gem! The file manipulation and TCP socket creation works really nice together. If you want a functional on device programming language, this is the way to go. Pocket Scheme supports Aubrey Jaffer's SLIB portable Scheme library as well. Plenty of documentation and sample code can be found here: http://www.mazama.net/scheme/pscheme.htm

Hands down one of the best device-hosted development tools for CE. Scheme lends itself nicely to small devices, and this implementation runs on just about every major class of CE hardware out there. Also includes a simple, but very useful standalone text editor.
