Hi,

I built Chicken 4.8.0.5 from source on the mingw-msys platform (under 
windows vista).  After attempting to port and debug a program I wrote 
originally for Gambit scheme it seems that I've run into an issue with 
the read-line command.  Specifically, if I type


(display read-line)

in the interpreter it prints ## as you would expect.  
But if I write the exact same command into a blank file, Test.scm, and 
compile it with gsc, running it only prints:


Error: unbound variable: read-line

I really can't figure this out if it's anything other than a bug. FWIW 
I chicken-installed sfri-34.  I think the other two extensions I use 
(sfri-69 and irregex) were already installed. Thanks for any help you 
can provide!

Apparently I had to (require-extension extras) since those functions are 
not included in csc by default as the are in csi.
I didn't catch that at first in the documentation.  It's a little bit 
confusing though to have it work in csi but not csc.  Sorry for any 
effort you might have expended...

No problem.

Actually, some people replied to your question, but I think you didn't
receive the replies because you are not subscribed to the list (and
those who replied didn't Cc you).  See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/chicken-users/2013-12/msg5.html

Best wishes.

The http://api.call-cc.org/doc/big-chicken extension is good for times like 
these.
