Glad you like it, and thanks! I take credit for the man-hours, but it 
was through reading Henry Baker's papers that my eyes were opened up to 
the possibilities (and in fact the core of the implementation is not 
that different from his, and employs some other techniques gleaned from 
some of his other publications). Also I re-wrote a couple of procedures 
from Alex's SRFI-56 to handle the floating point data.

By the way, I should mention that Felix Winkelmann has been kind enough 
to create a chicken .egg for Sassy, so chicken users can install it in 
the usual way (ie 'chicken-setup sassy'). Sassy uses a lot of macros so 
it takes a while to compile, but works just fine. Thanks Felix!
