slib-3b1 news:
* Larceny (Scheme) is supported.
From Ivan Shmakov:

From Rob Browning:
* guile.init (implementation-vicinity): Just (%site-dir).
(file-position, gentemp): module-replace!
(library-vicinity): Try (%search-load-path "slib/guile.init").
From Aubrey Jaffer:
* Logo and icon.
* Added program-arguments to System-Interface section in Manual.
* *.init: implementation-vicinity can be overridden by
implementation-specific environment variable:
MITSCHEME_IMPLEMENTATION_PATH
VSCM_IMPLEMENTATION_PATH
STK_IMPLEMENTATION_PATH
RSCHEME_IMPLEMENTATION_PATH
JSCHEME_IMPLEMENTATION_PATH

missing argument.

* scsh.init (program-arguments): Defined to command-line per
http://practical-scheme.net/wiliki/schemexref.cgi?command-line
