- load filenameprocedure
Filename should be a string naming an existing file containing Scheme source code. The load procedure reads expressions and definitions from the file and evaluates them sequentially. It is unspecified whether the results of the expressions are printed. The load procedure does not affect the values returned by current-input-port and current-output-port. Load returns an unspecified value.
Rationale: For portability, load must operate on source files. Its operation on other kinds of files necessarily varies among implementations.
