Funny coincidence!<p>I started doing something similar a couple weeks back -- trying to recreate the SICP LaTeX files so that I could generate my own beautiful PDFs, instead of using the slightly wonky HTML edition.<p>I even sent an email to Hal Abelson asking after the original TeX files, figuring it was a shot in the dark. I was blown away when he sent me a response... in less than an hour! He told me that he didn't think they even had a copy of it anymore, and that he didn't think it would be very useful in any case, but it was still really cool to get an email from a programming legend who has touched so many lives.<p>Too bad I forgot to ask for an autograph! ;)
Also, in case anyone hasn't seen it, here's the MIT URL with the HTML edition (along with sample assignments, instructors' manual, etc):<p><a href="http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/" rel="nofollow">http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/</a>
There's also a Texinfo version:<p><a href="http://www.neilvandyke.org/sicp-texi/" rel="nofollow">http://www.neilvandyke.org/sicp-texi/</a><p>It's really useful if you want to work the exercises in emacs alongside the text.
There's Scheme environment for iPad<p><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pixie-scheme-iii/id401023057?mt=8" rel="nofollow">http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pixie-scheme-iii/id401023057?...</a><p>Doing SICP exercise's on iPad could be actually a fun combo to try and see how well tablets work for programming.

I found this one the other day: SICP in Clojure (<a href="https://github.com/deobald/sicp-clojure" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/deobald/sicp-clojure</a>). It's sadly not done, but looks promising.
A little off topic: What's a good way to convert epub (or other ebook format) into HTML? Not all in one page like pdftohtml does but as tree nodes and a table of contents and all that.
Slightly off topic but I do not want to post another Ask HN question: what implementation of Scheme would you guys recommend/use? Working smoothly would emacs would be appreciated
