> What about mentioning Scheme here? +1. After all it is our official extension language, and some projects such as GnuCash, LilyPond and guile-emacs are using it. Guix also provide Scheme APIs. And Emacs Lisp, maybe? There are many Emacs Lisp projects in GNU, like AUCTeX, EMMS, emacs-muse, Dismal, and W3. -- Best regards, Xue Fuqiao. http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/
