Customize loading

2005-10-10 Thread Joris van der Hoeven
Hi, I have written my own code to load files using a disk cache. How can I tell guile that it should load all files and modules using my code instead of the standard routines? Best wishes, Joris ___ Guile-user mailing list Guile-user@gnu.org http://li

Dylan, Yes I do, but I'd recommend writing to guile-user@gnu.org instead of to me directly; I am far from being an expert on this subject. Ok, I got guile 1.6.5 compiling and linking as a static library under MSVC 7.1, but if I try a simple (console) program that just calls scm_boot_guile(),

Where to install files?

2005-10-10 Thread Neil Jerram
Can someone tell me the Makefile.am incantations for determining where a package should install Scheme and Elisp files? Also, does it follow that if a package installs nothing other than Scheme and Elisp files, its own $prefix is meaningless? Thanks, Neil __

Sorry for the top-post, but now I'm pretty sure I know what the problem is. I wasn't sure how to create the .x files, so I simply created them all as blank files! Obviously this isn't right, so if anyone can send me the .x files, or simple instructions on how to create them *without* any GNU to

.x files are attached. These are from the 1.6.x branch in CVS, so may not match your codebase exactly, but any discrepancies should be trivial to resolve - let me know if you need help with any such problems. Neil Thank you so much. Now I get Backtrace: In unknown file: ?: 0* [for-ea

I concur with most of your comments, but would like to make a metapoint: various OS/distributions/packaging systems have rules about what goes where, and guile should be such that it can be made to behave 'right' for these varying definitions of right. I think this is implicit in your comments, bu
