re: I don't know the answer to the question, but T. Hasbargen is asking if
    there is a way, in MIT Scheme, to do the Chez Scheme and Common LISP
    equivalent of (system "...").  For example, (system "rm *.com").

Just to set the record straight -- there is no SYSTEM function defined
for Common Lisp.  Individual vendors of Common Lisp systems may have
extended the functionality to include an equivalent facility, but
I don't know if any use the name SYSTEM. 

For example, Lucid Common lisp uses RUN-PROGRAM, which ports across all 
Unix platforms plus several others, but probably doesn't carry over well
into lots of other OOPS's (Obscure OPerating Systems -- ask me privately 
for titilating examples.)
