[ANN] sph command-line interface library, automatic testing and guile projects list as csv

[tantalum]

i am happy to announce a new version of the (sph cli) library for 
command-line option parsing.
a big new feature besides general improvements is integrated support for 
sub commands similar to what "git" has (git push, git pull and the 
like).
the library documentation and overview can be found here:
http://sph.mn/content/49f

apart from command-line interfaces, i did something for automatic 
testing. (sph test) has been rewritten and now has test modules. you can 
have a look at it here:
http://sph.mn/content/97b

also, the list of guile related projects on the net is now available as 
a csv download via a link on the page.
http://sph.mn/content/3e73

and while we are at it, for fun, http://sph.mn/o/bs generates weird 
business software marketing headlines and topics.

Would it be possible to have that list using an xml format that can
be consumed by search engines? Please? Maybe I can help making a patch?

Fun! How did you do that?

yes. do you have a specific format in mind? i have heard of "sitemap" 
format

> Fun! How did you do that?

with word lists for specific parts of speech, like this:

(define-as verb vector
   "extend" "revolutionise"
   "offer" "obtain"
   "access" "improve")

and then patterns like this:

(define patterns
     (list->vector
       (let*
         ( (source
             (list (list verb "and" verb noun "to" goal "with" adjective 
noun)
               (list verb "," verb "and" verb noun)
               (list adjective noun predicative-adjective combinator 
adjective noun)
               (list (random-choice "" verb goal-prefix) adjective
                 adjective noun (random-choice "" noun noun))
               (list verb "your" adjective noun "and" verb adjective 
noun)
               (list verb noun predicative-adjective "and" verb adjective 
noun predicative-adjective)
               (list (random-choice verb goal) noun
                 predicative-adjective combinator noun combinator 
adjective noun predicative-adjective)
               (list verb "and" verb adjective adjective noun)
               (list noun noun combinator noun predicative-adjective)))
           (source+goal
             (map (l (e) (if (eq? verb (first e)) (append e (list "and" 
goal)) e)) source)))
         (append source source+goal))))

the patterns are then used to create sentences with words selected from 
the lists they contain. the words are selected in random order and with 
making sure that a word has not already been used in the same sentence.

here is the source code:

on https://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.html it says:

"Also, all URLs in a Sitemap must be from a single host, such as 
www.example.com or store.example.com. For further details, refer the 
Sitemap file location" (https://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.html#location)

since all urls in the list are to external hosts it does not seem as if 
this would be valid.
maybe i can extend the html with structured data annotations instead 
http://schema.org/SoftwareApplication. i would think search engines can 
do well with html.
i will probably implement this at some point.

Yeah, you are right. I can parse the html to get the links. Even
the csv can be used.

Thanks.
