  Lambda Quest

Web Audio is not fun if you can't program timed events for it. E.g. a sequence of notes, or a volume envelope that changes over time. So I had to make the Scheme code asynchronous.

Scheme, just like JavaScript, is single-threaded and "synchronous". It needs a second process to tell it when to run a delayed call to achieve asynchronous behavior.

I've implemented [a macro](https://github.com/katspaugh/lambda.quest/blob/main/scheme/w...) (which is btw my first macro ever) to put a Scheme callback in a JS `setTimeout`.

Macros, for me, is such a mind-blowing thing. It was amazing to code one purposefully, to achieve a practical goal.
