I thought the Great Compromise of R7RS was to have specifications for both a small and a large language, so that everyone is happy (or at least equally mad :-)) . Isn't the difference with R6RS that R7RS-large draws extensively on SRFIs which are indeed attempts to codify existing practices? On

The trouble is that the SRFIs are finalized before we know which ones will become part of R7RS-large, in some cases decades before. Currently the SRFI process doesn't allow correcting anything except outright errors of an editorial nature, except in extremely rare cases. On Fri, Jan 18, 2019 at

[Chicken-users] R7RS large library aliases

[Chicken-users] csc switch for linking foreign libraries?

2019-01-18 Thread Christoph Lange
Dear Chickeneers! I might be stupid or blind, but I can't find a way of announcing foreign libraries to 'csc' that have to be linked to my binary. I have the following code: *(import bind)* *(bind "int mosquitto_lib_init(void);")* *(display (mosquitto_lib_init))* When doing 'csc mqtt.scm' on
