Hello,
Does the readline egg have an active maintainer?
I'm trying to add file globbing to the completions, and I have a very
basic patch. I'm thinking of creating a little completion callback API
and I'd like to coordinate with the maintainer.

I too would like to see them. Even if not in an egg form. An example
app would be good enough for me. Perhaps the classic Reddit clone?

Is there an egg for SRFI-1? Google searches show nothing, and eggs
unlimited does not appear to have a SFRI-1 implementation on hand.
Without having tried it, I'm guessing
http://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-1/srfi-1-reference.scm will probably
work.
Am I being thick? Does everyone just write their own

Hello Chicken expertgenzia,
In attempt to broaden my knowledge of Chicken, I'm attempting to
create an egg for the GEOS C library[1]. My first cut has been to use
easyffi, and I'm pleased with the results. With minimal hacking at the
GEOS API header[2] I've been able to see some results. No
A quick thank you to everyone who responded. Those tips helped
immensely. When starting out with a new system, not only does one need
questions answered, you need to know what questions to ask! I'd like
to *think* I'm on better ground for both of those items.
Cheers,

SVN external definitions *might* be what you want, though this
particular application sounds gruesome. Externals are roughly the
equivalent of symbolic links: a given directory in one
repository/branch actually points at another repository/branch.
Managing them for 300+ eggs sounds like a nightmare

Is it possible to determine at run time the arity of function? I'm
thinking something like
(arity (lambda (x y z) (* x y z)))
=> 3
Something that could also inform me about "rest" params would useful too.
My searching of the wiki has turned up no info.

I also added an additional hackathon goal of improving Chicken's

I disagree that new users should know how to put together a R5RS
environment with Chicken. As a new user of Chicken, my concern was not
with standards-conforming code; my concern was how to get code to work
using the functional programming idioms I had learned from Standard
ML.

Stacktor is a DSL for programming in a stack based style, like
