<adfeno>Hi all, in Guile, how would I go about doing "enumerated" lists that have letters in the place of numbers? <adfeno>I would like to do something like: a, ..., z, aa, ..., az, ba, ... bz, ands o on <adfeno>The nearest thing I was able to do is to enumerate between a--z (but then fall back to a in the next call). <davexunit>wingo: thanks for catching the typos. I don't have commit access so I sent the final patch to the list. <davexunit>if you could apply it that would be just swell. :) <adfeno>After soo many umpredictable errors with LaTeX, I decided to try Skribilo once more... <adfeno>Besides, LaTeX is almost 4 GiB, while Skribilo is ligther. ***micro` is now known as Guest47965
<paroneayea>so now we have suspendable ports, and now we have gnutls integration for https stuff <paroneayea>haven't tested it yet, but I'm guessing those don't mix quite yet <paroneayea>we probably need custom binary i/o support for suspending ports? <paroneayea>I say this, not having tried it, but coding away, where I guess I could be trying it ;) <davexunit>unfortunately the gnutls stuff causes a circular dependency <paroneayea>davexunit: I thought my patch that was integrated handled that <davexunit>I tried to http-get an https url with guile-next in guix, but gnutls wasn't available <paroneayea>davexunit: oh yes, you also need a version of gnutls built with guile-next <davexunit>but in order to get a guile with gnutls in guix I need to first build guile without it, use that as an input to gnutls, then build a new guile <paroneayea>because the guile picks up the gnutls dynamically <paroneayea>but you do need a new gnutls, and I should submit the one I used upstream <davexunit>but then I need gnutls and guile in my environment <davexunit>presumably one would need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH at that point <paroneayea>davexunit: I didn't need to... I got it working just fine in guix environment --pure <paroneayea>davexunit: anyway, I got it working when I was testing the patch I submitted <davexunit>(but would love a package ready-to-use in guix ;) <paroneayea>because I have to write an activitypub test suite <paroneayea>so I'm going to need to have gnutls working there <paroneayea>even if it means that the https stuff will block for the moment ;) <roelj>Can I add code to my function to break so I can peek at the values in that current scope? <roelj>Something like (break) or so? <daviid>roelj: did you know tired pk (undocumented afaict), it displays its args... (pk 1 2 3 'some), usefull to debug ... <spk121>davexunit: I saw that a couple of days back you were struggling with libltdl. Do you know the trick where you set the envvar LD_DEBUG=all ? <davexunit>last night I was able to get something to work <paroneayea>with instructions on how to test out https via gnutls integration <spk121>ACTION wonders if he can get a passport in time to get to Fosdem <davexunit>anyone here using a non-guixsd distro like debian or ubuntu? <davexunit>and furthermore would anyone trust me enough to run a binary that I'm hosting on my website? <davexunit>I'm looking for a guinea pig or two to test my guile + sdl2 binary bundles that I've built with guix <davexunit>if it works you should see a window open up and display some "hello world" text, then close a few seconds later. <civodul>davexunit: evidently it's hard to find users of non-guixsd distros nowadays ;-) <davexunit>it's common enough here on #guile to be worth mentioning ;) <davexunit>now I'll be able to post something pre-built next time I do a game jam or something. <davexunit>then when janneke gets the mingw stuff working I can do windows builds, too ;) <daviid>ot, anyone knows an autotool project that has png (jpg...) images in its doc? i don't unerstand how to tell texinfo/makeinfo to look for images in <foo>/doc/images instead of <foo>/doc/<foo>/images <janneke>davexunit it does not work on guix ;-) <davexunit>janneke: this is for x86_64 FHS distros that have a dynamic linker available in /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 <daviid>civodul: i see tha call in guix doc is the same as i'm doing in guile-cv, like this: @image{images/pp-17-bf,,,,.png} but I fail to understand reading guix/doc/local.mk (no Makefile.am in there) what i need to do so it works producing html doc with makeinfo guile-cv.texi --html <daviid>makeinfo guile-cv.texi --html produces html files lokking for mages here: file:///home/david/gnu/guile-cv/doc/guile-cv/images/pp-17-bf.png, where as I want it to look here: file:///home/david/gnu/guile-cv/doc/images/pp-17-bf.png
