Bigloo is cool. I think it falls under the same category of Chicken, which I address towards the end of:
https://dustycloud.org/blog/guile-steel-smelting-pot/ "Chicken Scheme compiles to C but doesn't strike me as qualifying for this post's vague definition because it still has the usual memory/dynamic typing overheads of Scheme. But go ahead and read literally everything on more-magic.net anyway because that stuff is great." Same feels like it could be said of Bigloo, but if I'm wrong, lmk :) Damien Mattei <damien.mat...@gmail.com> writes: > perhaps Bigloo a Scheme that targets C and has many other features can help: > https://www-sop.inria.fr/mimosa/fp/Bigloo/ > Damien > > On Sat, Jul 9, 2022 at 5:38 PM Christine Lemmer-Webber > <cweb...@dustycloud.org> wrote: > > A little blogpost this morning, not actual software, but software > desiderata: > https://dustycloud.org/blog/guile-steel-proposal/ > > I'd love to see something like the above happen.
