Dear all,
I've spent the last few days in integrating S7 Scheme
https://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/snd/snd/s7.html
with TeXmacs to replace Guile. S7 is a very small scheme interpreter and I
wanted to see how difficult was to port TeXmacs to it and whether performance
is acceptable. The good thing is that porting is not very difficult and now
that I understand the process better, I think will be also possible to port
TeXmacs to other scheme interpreters if needed. Unfortunately performance seems
to be worser than Guile 1.8 so at the moment does not seems a viable option.
I have a suspicion here---that having many different possible
implementations of Scheme may be dangerous: packages written for one
implementation may not work with another one, and this might hinder the
development of user-contributed packages, and I think user contributions
would help the development and diffusion of TeXmacs.
But perhaps it is sufficient that there is one "official" TeXmacs
version (with Guile :-) ) and then the presence of alternatives would
not hinder developments on the official version.
I'm also maintaining a port to Guile 2/3 which seems to work fine.
I am eagerly waiting for it to become the main TeXmacs version.
