| Each primitive Scheme command defined by the developer or by ACIS (a Scheme extension) has an associated handler function (in C++) that the Scheme Interpreter calls when that command is evaluated. This handler function implements that command, usually by translating Scheme data into C++, performing ACIS API calls, then translating the resulting data back into Scheme. | |||||
