<sneek>Welcome back nalaginrut, you have 3 messages.

<sneek>nalaginrut, ArneBab says: I did not test let () ... yet, but the syntax would be “let :\\n ...”

<sneek>nalaginrut, ArneBab says: I’m not sure about the efficiency: It iterates the file as string once to get the indentation levels and then (I think) twice to generate a code tree and to clean it up.

<sneek>nalaginrut, ArneBab says: Sorry for disappearing without word: I hadn’t expected that I’d be gone 2 hours.

<nalaginrut>ArneBab: I would recommend add '(let () " in the text as a special case. For common cases, users may deduct from the rules easily

<Chaos`Eternal>helo, guilers

***Sgeo is now known as Woosh2

***Woosh2 is now known as Sgeo

<ArneBab>nalaginrut: I now added that let () - thanks!

<nalaginrut>ArneBab: how about named let?

<nalaginrut>(let lp(...)

<ArneBab>let NAME …

<ArneBab>let loop

<nalaginrut>let name :\\n ?

<ArneBab> : foo 'bar

<nalaginrut>for (let lp()

<ArneBab> write foo

<ArneBab>let loop : \\n body

<nalaginrut>alright, I got the rule

<nalaginrut>;-P

<nalaginrut>I hope this \\n magic could be mentioned in the text

<nalaginrut>well, and I think I could write some chaos code: let let:lp : \\n

<ArneBab>nalaginrut: \\n is just a shorthand I use here. You have to use a real linebreak

<ArneBab>or real parentheses :)

<ArneBab>let loop () body ; is valid wisp.

<nalaginrut>ah

<nalaginrut>I thought it's \\n

<nalaginrut>ok, I thought parens can't be used in wisp

<ArneBab>nalaginrut: they can be used wherever you wish. wisp just disables indentation parsing in parens - so code in parens works just like scheme

<ArneBab>you can throw in a block of scheme and it will just work.

<nalaginrut>oh, sounds nice

<ArneBab>(that’s simply carried over from SRFI-49 and SRFI-110)

<nalaginrut>ok

<nalaginrut>oh!my! irregex main site is down

*nalaginrut wants to use irregex to eliminate double hyphen

***Shozan is now known as SHODAN

<Chaos`Eternal>helo guilers

<nalaginrut>it's pretty nice to play SRE

<nalaginrut>maybe I should write a tutorial for it

<nalaginrut>well, SRE will reduce 10x after compiled

<nalaginrut>I mean faster 10x

<civodul>Hello Guilers!

<dsmith-work>Morning Greetings, Guilers

<paroneayea>hey guilers

<paroneayea>and dsmith-work

<paroneayea>what's up

<Fuuzetsu>davexunit: Nice 3 columns in the FSF bulletin ;)

<davexunit>Fuuzetsu: heh, thanks! :)

<amz3>which bulletin are talking about?

<davexunit>amz3: the FSF fall bulletin

<paroneayea>hm

<paroneayea>I got the bulletin in the mail but can't find it

<paroneayea>it looks like the 2014 bulletins aren't on https://www.fsf.org/bulletin/

<davexunit>looks like we need to upload the last 2

<amz3>that's why I can't find it ^^

<civodul>someone™ needs to port https://github.com/arcfide/goscher to Guile

<civodul>it feels like an urgency

<davexunit>civodul: what does this do? the readme confuses me

<civodul>it's a Gopher server

<davexunit>I'll look up what that is sometime

<dsmith-work>civodul: gopher! Do people still use that? (I never have..)

<civodul>i've never used it, but somehow, i'm fascinated :-)

<civodul>it seems so underground

<paroneayea>civodul: is that a pun

<civodul>hmm, no

<BW^->guys, what's the SMP support like? :)

<civodul>BW^-: Guile has threads implemented in terms of POSIX threads

<BW^->aha

<BW^->civodul: does it also have green threads within the Posix threads?

<civodul>it doesn't have "green threads", but it has delimited continuations, which can be used to implement coroutines

<civodul>is that what you mean?

<davexunit>did someone say coroutines? https://gitorious.org/sly/sly/source/5361a105fdcb097def20caa980b1956973810b94:sly/coroutine.scm

<BW^->aha

<BW^->civodul: hmhm

<BW^->civodul: it has call/cc right?

<BW^->civodul,davexunit: no, I meant what Gambit means by |make-thead|

<davexunit>oh

<BW^->that's a green thread running within the green threads swarm in the OS thread

<BW^->however, Gambit does not support OS (=POSIX) threads currently, so that is its issue.

<civodul>davexunit: nice!
