<dreamer_>hello ! I'm trying to use chickadee (https://dthompson.us/projects/chickadee.html) and I first installed all the dependencies, but when I run ./configure I get "required guile module not found: (gl)"

<dreamer_>yet when I run info gl, It works. What gives ?

<amz3>dreamer_: you must install guile-opengl

<lloda>guile doesn't print some unicode, is there a reason for this?

<lloda>scheme@(guile-user)> '❌

<lloda>$2 = #{\\x274c;}#

<lloda>

<civodul>weird indeed

<civodul>did you check libguile/print.c?

<lloda>I did not

<lloda>I see print_extended_symbol etc.

<lloda>other stars print fine, is this in another UC category somehow?

<civodul>symbol_has_extended_read_syntax may be what we're looking for

<civodul>yeah, dunno

<civodul>CROSS MARK has category ".:Base" says Emacs

<civodul>not sure what that means

<lloda>the only meaningful difference I see in fileformat.info is that CROSS MARK is from 2010 and e.g. MULTIPLICATION X is from 1993

<lloda>(if that is meaningful)

<civodul>yeah, ✕ and ❌ appear to be in the same categories and everything

<dreamer_>amz3 : I have installed guiled-opengl

<dreamer_>that's why I don't understand

<dreamer_>guile*

<dreamer_>as well as guile-sdl2

<dreamer_>in /usr/local/lib/guile/2.2/ccache, I can see gl glu glut and sdl2 folder and the make && make installs went without a hithc

<djcb>Hmm, odd problem "In procedure module-lookup: Unbound variable: for-each"

<djcb>For some reason, in my module it can't find this when I have (use-modules (srfi srfi-1))

<dreamer_>It's my first time using a scheme , so I don't know whether I should explicitely point to the modules or something.. I'll go to sleep and investigate tomorrow

<djcb>dreamer_: might need to set GUILE_LOAD_PATH / GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH

<djcb>see the guile manpage

<dreamer_>YES

<dreamer_>SWEET JESUS MONAD

<dreamer_>THANKS

<cmaloney>Jesus Monad saves

<OrangeShark>amz3: I see. How hard do you think it would be to port to Chez?

<civodul>OrangeShark: i suppose you're talking about porting *from* Chez? ;-)

<OrangeShark>civodul: no, amz3 was mentioning porting stuff to chez

<civodul>heheh

<civodul>heya dustyweb!

<civodul>dustyweb: would you feel like making a guile-gcrypt release? :-)

<dustyweb>hi civodul

<dustyweb>unfortunately the next month is insanity mode so I don't think I can... but, I think you have commit access, and I'd be happy if you did a release...?

<civodul>dustyweb: heheh :-)

<civodul>do i have commit access?

<civodul>i mean there's no rush, but at some point we should consider taking that route

<dustyweb>civodul: I thought you did...

<dustyweb>civodul: I agree it should be done though

<dustyweb>and if you want to ping me in July

<dustyweb>I can do it then

<dustyweb>we are moving within a month

<dustyweb>and I also have strong deadlines

<dustyweb>so that's making my life topsy turvy

<dustyweb>it's a large move too

<civodul>dustyweb: oh sure, i understand

<civodul>guile-gcrypt can wait after your move, of course

<civodul>moving is always a drain
