<taylanub>JesseH: I think no one's working on it right now. <nalaginrut>the original guile-lua was manual parser, which is painful to hack <nalaginrut>the real cool thing is guile-lua could call Scheme proc and easy to do that <nalaginrut>actually, all the languages on Guile could call each other's proc <taylanub>Well isn't that the point of supporting multiple languages on the same VM ? :) <taylanub>One of the main points, anyway, I'd think. <nalaginrut>the problem is that I'm hacking Artanis with all my power, anyway, guile-lua-rebirth was one of cool idea for Artanis too, that's why I write it <nalaginrut>Scheme folks may choose to co-work with a lua guy for a website <JesseH>I am a Lua guy, wanting to learn scheme because I think its interesting. <nalaginrut>but I want to make it more practical, not just interesting ;-D <JesseH>A friend showed me guile because it said something about Lua and he thought I would be interested <JesseH>Yes, that is a good goal to have <nalaginrut>yes, the original guile-lua is cool, but since the original author left, it's no cool to hack the parser <JesseH>Good to see that you are doing this then, heh <nalaginrut>so I think the best way to go is rewrite based on it <JesseH>Once I learn scheme I can try to assist you <nalaginrut>original one did a lot of work for the lua-implementation, it's nice to learn <nalaginrut>and you have a chance to improve lua things or add your own idea <nalaginrut>I've done lexer/parser, though some collision in the LALR <nalaginrut>the rest is some kind of time consuming work to translate AST to the implementation <nalaginrut>as I said, I spent all my power on Artanis web-framework, both code and docs, so I stopped glr at present <nalaginrut>I have to finish my plan before Sep 1st, I'm in Lisp-in-summer-project contest these months ;-P <taylanub>JesseH: I don't think there is a 6th version of libffi, so not sure what that is. <taylanub>3.0.13 is the latest release apparently. I have 3.0.9 and it works just fine with the latest stable Guile. <JesseH>Well, libffi6 is a thing, it seems. Not sure whats going on there. ***sneek_ is now known as sneek
<taylanub>Weird, Debian seems to have some packages called libffi5 and libffi6, which are just certain versions from the 3.0.x series. Possibly some API/ABI version separate from the version number ? <mark_weaver>libgc 7.1 is actually quite old, and shows intermittent problems on our test suite. <mark_weaver>JesseH: cool! feel free to ask any questions you might have here :)
