Re: Path problem when trying to compile under Windows
OK, thank you both for suggesting MSys and Allegro respectively. They may in fact facilitate things to me. Greetings Cleverson
Re: Path problem when trying to compile under Windows
Hi Cleverson, You could use the allegro egg as an alternative to sdl. It comes with with audio support and a full set of keyboard/mouse event handlers, and is available in Chicken 5.

It's probably some 32 vs. 64 bit issue. I'll investigate it again later today, or, in case someone has Windows binaries and are willing to send them to me, it might save me time and I'd be grateful.

Re: Path problem when trying to compile under Windows
Hi, If you like the linux-terminal, I'd strongly recommend msys2.org. It gives you all the familiar tools like make&grep. This wiki page describes the build process: http://wiki.call-cc.org/msys2 But if you're not a linux user I don't know if that just makes things worse... Regarding eggs, there is the sdl2 egg which covers some of your needs. I think you can play sounds with it, but sdl2-mixer hasn't been ported to Chicken 5 though. K.

Call for Workshop Proposals: ICFP 2020
CALL FOR WORKSHOP AND CO-LOCATED EVENT PROPOSALS ICFP 2020 25th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming August 23 - 28, 2020 Jersey City, NJ, US https://icfp19.sigplan.org/ The 25th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming will be held in Jersey City, New Jersey on August 23-28, 2020. ICFP provides a forum for researchers and developers to hear about the latest work on the design, implementations, principles, and uses of functional programming. Proposals are invited for workshops (and other co-located events, such as symposiums) to be affiliated with ICFP 2020 and sponsored by SIGPLAN. These events should be less formal and more focused than ICFP itself, include sessions that enable interaction among the attendees, and foster the exchange of new ideas. The preference is for one-day events, but other schedules can also be considered. The workshops are scheduled to occur on August 23rd (the day before ICFP) and 27-28th of August (the two days after ICFP). -- Submission details Deadline for submission: November 15, 2019 Notification of acceptance: December 13, 2019 Prospective organizers of workshops or other co-located events are invited to submit a completed workshop proposal form in plain text format to the ICFP 2020 workshop co-chairs (Jennifer Hackett and Leonidas Lampropoulos) via email to icfp-workshops-2...@googlegroups.com by November 15, 2019. (For proposals of co-located events other than workshops, please fill in the workshop proposal form and just leave blank any sections that do not apply.) Please note that this is a firm deadline. Organizers will be notified if their event proposal is accepted by December 13, 2019, and if successful, depending on the event, they will be asked to produce a final report after the event has taken place that is suitable for publication in SIGPLAN Notices. The proposal form is available at: http://www.icfpconference.org/icfp2020-files/icfp20-workshops-form.txt Further information about SIGPLAN sponsorship is available at: http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Proposals/Sponsored/ -- Selection committee The proposals will be evaluated by a committee comprising the following members of the ICFP 2020 organizing committee, together with the members of the SIGPLAN executive committee. Workshop Co-Chair: Jennifer Hackett(University of Nottingham) Workshop Co-Chair: Leonidas Lampropoulos (University of Maryland) General Chair: Stephanie Weirich (University of Pennsylvania) Program Chair: Adam Chlipala(MIT) -- Further information Any queries should be addressed to the workshop co-chairs (Jennifer Hackett and Leonidas Lampropoulos), via email to icfp-workshops-2...@googlegroups.com.

Hi Kristian, For now, I'm willing to try programming a little game just for fun, so I would need basic audio management (i.e. playing and stopping audio files). So, probably something like sdl-mixer should work. Also, I'd like a keyboard manager, e.g. listening and reacting to any key press. I'm not sure whether chicken have something for that. BTW, yesterday I tried to build Chicken again, but it complained there is no rule for building a given library, which I haven't copied the name, as it was too late and I was sleepy.
