<Zambyte>latex: Yeah it's true. That is inherited from Scheme. <ArneBab>latex: in the new scheme standard R7RS (and in Guile) you can also use #true instead of #t. <Dooshki>amusingly enough, the LISP dialect I use at work uses t for true, and nil for false or empty list <ArneBab>Dooshki: sounds like a common lisp (or Emacs lisp :-) )? Scheme is a bit stricter — which I like. <RhodiumToad>can't submit it yet until my framework stuff for multiple guile flavors gets accepted <Dooshki>ArneBab: Apparently it's based off of Franz Lisp; it's Cadence SKILL, a CAD automation language; turns out LISP is good at processing lists (who would've guessed), so it's a good fit :P <Dooshki>It's reignited my interest in LISP languages like Scheme, I remember messing around with Guix a long time ago <Dooshki>ACTION used to be an "arr, I'll use C or Rust for everything" kinda person, but now that he got to experience the strengths of LISP in the field, he's a lot more interested in it, and in implementing it in his own projects as an extension language <Dooshki>(which is something I believe Guile can help me, but I'm also evaluating other options, trying to see what's the best fit for me) <old>srfi-64 specific question. Is there a way to have a plan-test like for TAP? <old>like to tell the test-runner that X tests are planned and it should emit an error if the count is not good <old>I guess it would be something with test-runner-on-test-begin! <old>oh nmv I'm dumb. test-begin already supports that .. <msavoritias>Hey. I see there is a guile-gnunet package in guix that uses an old guile version and also gnunet-scheme that is by the gnunet project <msavoritias>for all purposes the guile-gnunet package is obsolete right? <msavoritias>i am confused because they support different services or something <msavoritias>my usecase is developing a chat application that runs on gnunet
