@title[#:tag-prefix '(lib "scribblings/inside/inside.scrbl") 
       #:tag "top"]{@bold{Inside}: PLT Scheme C API}

@author["Matthew Flatt"]

This manual describes PLT Scheme's C interface, which allows the
interpreter to be extended by a dynamically-loaded library, or
embedded within an arbitrary C/C++ program. The manual assumes
familiarity with PLT Scheme as described in @|MzScheme|.

For an alternative way of dealing with foreign code, see
@other-manual['(lib "scribblings/foreign/foreign.scrbl")], which
describes the @schememodname[scheme/foreign] module for manipulating
low-level libraries and structures purely through Scheme code.
