Thank you to these Free Software projects I use every day (and to those I know I'm forgetting):
#bash #btrfs #glibc #gnucoreutils #guile #htop #keyd #kitty #labwc #librewolf #man #mvp #python #sudo #tmux #tty-clock #vim #voidlinux #waybar #zathura
I think one example from the docs that made me trip was this:
(list ("ENV_VAR1" . "value1")
("ENV_VAR2" . "value2"))
I think it's supposed to be an alist, but evaluating it produces a syntax error. To be an alist, IIUC, it should be either
(list (cons "ENV_VAR1" "value1")
(cons "ENV_VAR2" "value2"))
or
'(("ENV_VAR1" . "value1")
("ENV_VAR2" . "value2"))
The latter is used in other parts of the docs though.
Still hooked on BLUE. Hacked all day yesterday and today converting Dezyne's (https://dezyne.org) build system. Opened six issues, and two pull requests, one already merged.
It's not perfect *just* yet, in fact, some issues are show-stoppers for BLUE to replace Autotools for Dezyne, which has a pretty "interesting" build system.
I would very much recommend to anyone who has a soft-spot for build-systems and/or Guile to take a look.
However, the experience of hacking a build system in Guile is amazing! And I'm certain the show-stoppers will be resolved some time soon.
@momo cool!
Well then, please have a listen to the episodes of the #LispyGopherClimate podcast that me, @kentpitman and @screwlisp did these past few weeks:
#tech #software #Lisp #CommonLisp #Scheme #SchemeLang #R7RS #MITScheme #Guile #GuileScheme

@screwlisp @kentpitman I’m just reading up on the MIT-Scheme condition system. Recent efforts to standardize this are defined in SRFI-255: “Restarting conditions”.
An older standards condition systems in Scheme was defined in SRFI-35: “Conditions”. And #Guile users can use the Guile implementation of SRFI-35 to make use of it.
I wish I had known about this two weeks ago when we first started talking about it on the #LispyGopherClimate show, but better late than never, I guess.
