  Description     : ITP: snap-byob -- A block-based drag-and-drop programming environment

 Snap! (formerly BYOB) is a visual drag-and-drop programming language
 designed for the creation of interactive stories, animations, games, music,
 and art.
 It is an extended reimplementation of Scratch (a project of the Lifelong 
 Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab) that allows you to Build Your 
 Own Blocks.
 .
 Snap! is designed to help young people develop 21st century learning skills. 
 As they create Snap! projects, they learn important mathematical and
 computational ideas, while also gaining a deeper understanding of the process of
 design.
 .
 It also features first class lists, first class procedures,
 and continuations. These added capabilities make it suitable for a serious
 introduction to computer science for high school or college students.
