I've been using Blosxom for nearly a year now, and while I like the
basic design (use the file system as blog entry and comment store), I
find I want to customize it quite a bit, and I'd rather not argue with
the Perl. So I'm looking at writing a blosxom-like system with
Chicken. I don't care much for web programming, so this may not
happen.
There seem to be a few small, implementation-specific CGI libraries
for scheme, but I thought I'd ask here first if people know of or have
used any they particularly like before I embark on on porting or
writing my own.
I have absolutely no experience with blogging stuff, but for any
kind of web-programming I would recommend trying out Spiffy the
webserver. It's pretty simple to set up and configure and even though
it doesn't offer all the bells and whistles of an industrial web-server
it lets you easyly code dynamic web-pages in Scheme, either in a
PHP-like manner (embedding Scheme code in HTML) or by generating
SXML, or whatever you like.
AFAIK, Alejandro has some CGI stuff, I don't know of any other
Chicken-specific CGI code.
I would be highly interested in an "official" CGI egg for Chicken, so
if I can be of any help, please let me know.
cheers,
