My basic idea is to write a POSIX ed(1) implementation which is extensible through a library interface which allows defining custom editor commands through provided macros and parser combinators. If you are interested, you can find the source code at: https://github.com/nmeum/edward By now the editor is largely compatible with the POSIX ed(1) specification. As such, I also have a "buffer of lines" abstraction with POSIX ed undo support in `lib/buffer.scm`. Greetings, Sören

I've been working on something along those lines myself, in fits and starts. I haven't gotten too far with it, but my basic idea is to make a library of data structures and functions suitable for creating ed-style interfaces where the basic metaphor is a buffer of lines. -- Chris

I initially extracted this code from an ed(1) implementation which I am writing atm in R7RS Scheme, which is why the posix-regex code is also still R7RS. I suppose it should indeed be possible to get rid of the dependency. I will keep this in mind as an enhancement for a future version of posix-regex :) Greetings, Sören

Many thanks. Your egg has been added to the coop. Regarding documentation: all fine. Some people create it in advance, some after the egg gets added. Both are good as long as we eventually have some documentation. :-) Some nitpicking: is the dependency on r7rs really necessary, assuming your egg uses the FFI, which is CHICKEN-specific? All the best. Mario -- http://parenteses.org/mario
New Egg: posix-regex
Hello, I have written a small library to wrap the regcomp(3), regexec(3), and regerror(3) POSIX functions. This allows using strict POSIX Basic Regular Expressions (BREs) and Extended Regular Expressions (EREs) from CHICKEN code. My understanding is that irregex only supports EREs with PCRE extensions (hence the need for this egg). I would like to see it added to the egg repository. The source code is hosted at https://github.com/nmeum/posix-regex. The release info file is available at: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nmeum/posix-regex/main/posix-regex.release-info I have performed tests with test-new-egg and only the documentation step fails. I assume this is due to the fact that I haven't created a Wiki page yet, I will do so after the egg is added to the repository (it wasn't clear to me whether Documentation should be created beforehand). Let me know if there is anything that needs to be adjusted. Please CC me, I am not subscribed to the list. Greetings, Sören
