You very possibly have better reasons to refuse to add this line
to your files than the mere trouble of the trouble doing it by
hand, but anyway just in case you need a command to do this
operation here it is:

$ find where-your-files-are -type f -name '*.scm' |
        while read f; do echo '; coding: iso-8859-1' > $f ; done

Although it may be shorter in scheme...
