[Chicken-users] CVS news and "Eggs Unlimited"

[felix]

Hello, everybody!


The current CVS version of Chicken features several bug-fixes
and the new -visit option and the `visit' procedure. These can be
used to use macros in other files without loading/compiling them.
The `require-at-runtime' extension-specifier makes it possible now
to specify extensions that should be required at runtime, via
an expansion of `require-for-syntax' at compile time (everything clear now?)

I mean, one can say:

(require-for-syntax 'my-cool-macro)

and this require's the macro file and additionally expands into

(require 'my-cool-macro-support-code)


Then, I have made some very naive attempts for creating something
remotely resembling an archive of Chicken extensions. Please
take a look at

http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/eggs/index.html

Suggestions are very welcome.
Contribution of course as well.

(anybody has a nice logo?)


cheers,
felix
