Before, the LaTeX export on the S7 branch might not work. I've fixed the LaTeX
export in Mogan V1.1.0 (The fork of GNU TeXmacs based on S7 Scheme branch)

Do you mean it is much slower to convert a TeXmacs document to LaTeX in S7
Scheme?

Please just make sure that the current implementation keeps working.
We won't move to another scheme for TeXmacs 2.1.1.

As long as this only concerns CMake, then that is fine with me.

About plans for Scheme. After the benchmarks, I got somewhat confused.
If S7 were systematically faster than Guile (at least than Guile 1.8),
then I think that moving to S7 is the simplest option for us.
Otherwise, we should keep playing with Guile 3 too.
If my understanding is correct, then the main problem is the LaTeX export.
Does anyone understand why this is so much slower with S7?
Another decision we could make is that we wish to keep the support
for various versions of Scheme. But then we would need a branch that
works for both S7 and Guile 3.
Some advice by Max would be useful here.
Best wishes, --Joris
