I have never used ilisp, but I am quite happy with cmuscheme.el that
comes with emacs.  Just put the following in your .emacs file:

(require 'cmuscheme)
(setq scheme-program-name "csi -hygienic")
(setq scheme-mit-dialect nil)

Now you can bring up a buffer with a csi process by typing `M-x
run-scheme'.  After that, you can request code to be evaluated from
any buffer that is in `scheme-mode' by typing one of the following:

C-x C-e: evaluate last sexp
C-c C-r: evaluate region
C-c C-l: load scheme file
