Maybe something like: (let* ((trace-symbol 'tr) (help-text (sprintf ",~a FUNCTION Toggle tracing of FUNCTION" trace-symbol)) (toggle-tracing (lambda () (trace/untrace (eval (read)) (toplevel-command trace-symbol toggle-tracing help-text)) Best wishes.

Thanks for pointing that out. The ,tr command has indeed been removed (version 4.3.0). I've fixed the manual. You can use the trace egg (http://wiki.call-cc.org/egg/trace). Here's an example: csi> (use trace) csi> (define (fact n) (if (< n 2) 1 (* n (fact (- n 1) csi> (trace fact) ; tracing fact csi> (fact 3) [0] (fact 3) [1] (fact 2) [2] (fact 1) [2] fact -> 1 [1] fact -> 2 [0] fact -> 6 6 Best wishes.

[Chicken-users] Tracing (Another NOOB Q)
In the manual on the wiki it says you can use the ,tr command to trace a function like: #;5> ,tr fact #;5> (fact 3) |(fact 3) | (fact 2) | (fact 1) | (fact 0) | fact -> 1 | fact -> 1 | fact -> 2 |fact -> 6 6 but there does not appear to be a ,tr command anymore. I've tried a couple of the others that seemed similar, but could not find anything. This would be really helpful as I make my way through SICP.

Yes - you basically always want to use a group, but it's nice to be able to run simple examples in the repl.

It's not completely broken, you just need to call (test-begin) before any tests (or use test-group). I'll fix this as soon as I get home, but it's not very meaningful to use tests without any group. -- Alex ___ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users

You can try version 0.9.9.2, which is the last before the latest (alas, you'd need a copy of the svn repo to find that out, since the version history in the docs has not been updated). To install 0.9.9.2 you can run: $ chicken-install test:0.9.9.2 I hope that helps. Best wishes.

[Chicken-users] test egg
I'm trying to get the test egg working, but I'm not getting very far. I'm using chicken to learn scheme, so I'm really new at all this.
