Subject: New module proposal: argp
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2020 16:18:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9c9d139a505b5abeb81b18f047208d3709c2c2fd.camel@rdmp.org> (raw)

Hello,

   I've recently sent up updates to the (ice-9 getopt-long) module as needed for my mcron program, and I want to follow that up
with a higher-level argument parser in a new module called argp (it will work along similar lines to glibc's argp).

   Would be interested to know if anyone has an opinion on this.

   Also, is the best way to proceed to just write a new (ice-9 argp) module, or should I be engaging with the SRFI or RNRS
communities first?

Any comments welcome,
Best wishes,
Dale
