It can be thought of as an alternative to Guile's built-in reader. The purpose of Guile-Reader is to allow for the creation of readers for different variants of the Scheme/Lisp syntax. Its design allows the re-use and composition of various parts of a lexer called “token readers”. It comes with a library of re-usable token readers that can be used to build a Scheme reader with various extensions. For instance, syntax extensions for DSSSL keywords, SRFI-30 block comments, SRFI-62 S-exp comments, square-bracket S-exps, and brace S-exps are provided and readily usable through the ‘make-alternate-guile-reader’ procedure. Additionally, Guile-Reader aims to improve on Guile's reader sub-system by allowing for the coexistence of several, potentially incompatible, readers within a single Guile program. In particular, it provides a “confinement” mechanism that confines changes made via ‘read-set!’ and ‘read-hash-extend’ to the calling module. New in Guile-Reader 0.6 * Guile-Reader is now distributed under GPLv3 or later (instead of GPLv2 or later). * New token reader for R6RS-style syntax quotes: #', #`, and #,. * `make-guile-reader' returns a reader that understands SRFI-62 s-exp comments, R6RS-style syntax quotes, and s-exps introduced by square brackets. All these are supported by default by `read' in Guile 2.0. * On Guile 2.0, non-ASCII Unicode symbols, strings, characters, and Skribe-expressions are correctly read. * On Guile 2.0, Scheme source files are compiled and installed. * Bugs fixed * Add support for rationals in the number token reader. * Provide replacement for some `scm_i_' functions and other internals no longer accessible in Guile 1.9+. * Adjust packaging so that it works with Guile 1.9+.
