those last years i installed guile on at least 3 mac system,without problem with read line readline installed by homebrew ,the homebrew version seems to use gnu readline: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/readline https://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/readline/rltop.html simply by adding that: (use-modules (ice-9 readline)) (activate-readline) so i surprised of this problem, but again with homebrew it is perhaps better to install from the source too, i will try tomorrow...
i succeed in making work the first part of this : https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/C-Extensions.html with a few modifications: gcc `pkg-config --cflags guile-3.0` -shared -o libbessel.so -fPIC -lguile-3.0 bessel.c instead of: gcc -shared -o libbessel.so -fPIC bessel.c perhaps updating the doc Regards, Damien On Mon, Dec 26, 2022 at 10:46 PM <dsm...@roadrunner.com> wrote: > Well, Apple also has a readline implementation that is similar but not > quite the same as gnu readline.
