What sort of projects? And Scheme or Common Lisp?

For tcl, I recently wrote a system for writing term rewriting systems, then wrote a simple symbolic math package for it. It can do algebra and some differential calculus. [term rewriting system](https://github.com/mroll/trs)

Over xmas break I wrote some celestial mechanics code in Common Lisp. That's here [orbit](https://github.com/mroll/orbit).

I've written a lot more common lisp than I have scheme. But pranomostro worry not! I have no use for flame wars, and can appreciate why common lisp exists as well as scheme. In the interest of not going off on a huge tangent, I will say that I prefer common lisp when I am looking to build some application because it is a lisp-2 and thus has more powerful macros. But if I was going to write some experimental program, like a compiler, I might choose scheme because it is more elegant and intuitive (no funcall or #').

Right now I'm working on a text rpg in tcl.

Edit: What is the syntax for markdown style links? I tried above but the forum parser doesn't seem to like it.

Edit: Oh! And I also wrote a minimal object system in common lisp because I thought CLOS would be like, way too overkill. I use that in the orbit program, and the source can be found here https://github.com/mroll/mattos.
