Is there somewhere else to point to, besides the > old CVS module? There is Guile Facade which is (more or less) scsh at: http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=guile-facade;a=summary The interface has been changed in some ways (anything provided by Guile itself it no longer provided), it is undocumented, and I have yet to actually finish it (another weekend of hacking with my local changes is all it needs in theory). The CVS version no longer works with Guile 1.9.x unfortunately (relying on internal behavior of macroexpanders to implement the explicit renaming macro macro system). But... once I get my new laptop set up for hacking (aaaalmost there) and finish up a few rather minor work tasks it looks like I'll have time for this again (and will have a day or two without net access to force me from distraction). I'll make an announcement to guile-user when that happens. FWIW the tasks I have listed remaining are: #B _ Port scsh fname {{Tasks:2363}} ([[2010.08.16]]) #C _ Port fork/pipe et al {{Tasks:2359}} ([[2010.08.16]]) #C _ Port port->FOO {{Tasks:2360}} ([[2010.08.16]]) #C _ Port run/FOO {{Tasks:2361}} ([[2010.08.16]]) #C _ Port glob {{Tasks:2362}} ([[2010.08.16]]) I was last working on the fname module: porting it required bringing in the entire file system code. I brought in most of the code and did a quick make-it-compile run through, but still have to do the part wherein I ensure it actually runs. > For now, changing the link to point to the old CVS module. > > Thanks, > > Andy -- Jessie: i thought your beard took the oxygen from the air and made it breathable for you
