       Under what circumstances does it write it?
       If it's an image dump, you should be able to specify it after the
       -band option when starting scheme.

    I get it once in a while, but I haven't been able to pinpoint the cause.
    It seems that it has something to do with GNU Emacs killing the scheme process.

Scheme dumps a scheme_suspend band when it receives the Unix SIGHUP signal.
This is done so that when a connection is dropped, any work done in
the Scheme environment is not lost.

    I tried to say 
		      % scheme -band scheme_suspend
    but didn't get much out of it. Scheme was just silent for a while, and when I
    finally got a prompt from it, it didn't know about any of the functions I had defined.

As always, you can examine the environment by using the WHERE procedure.

(where)

enters the environment inspector.
