Whoa! Th
Hello,
my implementation of SRFI-99 is now available as an egg. I have fixed
some problems concerning unchecked block access and have added support
for arbitrary record type properties, similar to the structure
properties of Racket, as another extension. The implemented extensions

Hello Felix,
for SRFI-99 compliance, separate setter procedures must be
generated. But the getter procedures generated by my implementation

Hello,
one more improvement to the SRFI-99 implementation: I've added a
srfi-99-variants module with syntactic sugar for the definition and
destructuring of variant types where the base type is an empty record
and the variants are sealed subtypes.
Ciao,
Thomas

Hello,
I added a brief description of everything in the egg to the corresponding
wiki page. Links to the official SRFI-99 document and the documentatio
Hello,
I've been playing around with two small library projects related to
web and GUI development:

event loop in a CHICKEN thread, allows you to display HTML as a
GUI and to i

Hello,
while it is true that only an ENOENT errno indicates a missing path
component in any file system operation, I also wonder why on ea
Hello,
during the past days I've written a small binding for the BerkelyDB
library. You can find the code here:
http://www.chust.org/fossils/berkeley-db
You get a persistent key value store backed by files with an interface
loosely resembling that of a SRFI-69 hash table. There is transaction

Hello,
to me this behaviour looks correct. amb-collect is supposed to collect
all the different values its argument can take on, but i
