Related, in 2001 or earlier, Lytha Ayth somehow converted the HTML edition of SICP to GNU TeXinfo.

So that it could be used by students on modest computers that couldn't manage a Web browser and running Scheme at the same time:

As part of this, they redrew the figures in SICP as ASCII art (not as something like TeX figures), which I guess made sense for those requirements. Though today I like the idea of using proper markup for figures.

There is also SICP in org-mode [1], where you can evaluate scheme code while reading. But it is nice to see TeXmacs use as well :)

that's the one I am following right now, as you said, the fact I can C-c C-c to eval code on org-babel is pretty incredible.

Another interactive SICP discussed on HN 10 years ago:

SICP was one of my course texts and introduction to the scheme language. It is a masterpiece of a computer science book with a staggering breadth of applications.
