<nalaginrut>morning guilers~

<u_l-lap>hey, is there some super secret bit of code someone has lying around that can use portaudio or pulseaudio input?

<u_l-lap>I need to snoop my pulseaudio bus to control some leds

<u_l-lap>swig generated... so maybe useful and easier than writing 500+ lines of C for this 150 line guile program

<nalaginrut>IIRC, SWIG is not available for Guile2, dunno if this is changed now

<cky>nalaginrut: But g-wrap is, right?

<nalaginrut>cky: dunno, I never tried g-wrap in my code, I don't know its utility ;-P

<mark_weaver>g-wrap is definitely available for guile 2, although I don't remember if you need g-wrap from git or not.

<mark_weaver>daviid would know

<mark_weaver>g-wrap is used for the guile-gnome bindings

<nalaginrut>mark_weaver: is it a OO generator ?

*nalaginrut still no idea about what's the utility

*nalaginrut is compiling stable-2.0 for playing g-wrap example...

***siel_ is now known as siel

<davexunit>morning guilers

*davexunit wants to rework Sly's rendering API to somewhat resemble Racket's Pict API

<dsmith-work>Tuesday Greetings, Guilers

***camilo_ is now known as cpayan

***sethalve_ is now known as sethalves

<davexunit>useful for guile?

<davexunit>my thoughts are: just use (ice-9 match)

<davexunit>I don't really like the dotted syntax they chose.

<mark_weaver>hmm, I don't see a proper way to do that.

<mark_weaver>well, you could repurpose unquote for it..

<davexunit>hmm, yeah, with match the elements would need to be ordered.

<davexunit>unordered input would fail spectacularly

<mark_weaver>a macro can't properly find all the references within.

<mark_weaver>but you could use parameterize syntax to rebind unquote

<mark_weaver>where (unquote foo) would be expanded into (assq 'foo <alist>)

<mark_weaver>which is not as efficient, of course.

<davexunit>yeah, that would work.

<davexunit>just some food for thought. I thought it was a rather interesting macro. :)

<mark_weaver>indeed, thanks for the pointer!
