Re: [Chicken-users] hygienic egg PORT-A-MANIA!

[Ivan Raikov]

  Would it be easy to create a SWIG module for the hygienic Chicken? I
would like to start with porting endian-port, but I don't want to
invest the time to restructure it to using the Chicken FFI directly. 

  Also, I would prefer if the eggdoc documentation option is
reinstated, and if future sweeping changes to the egg infrastructure
are made after some discussion on the mailing list. I am not very
happy about the way wiki documentation is currently rendered, and it
looks like it would take a non-trivial effort to get the wiki doc to
match eggdoc's look and feel.
