Gambit for Geiser
- 2. WHAT IS GEISER ? Geiser is an Emacs environment to hack and have fun in Scheme. ( inspired by : Common Lisp’s Slime, Factor’s FUEL, Squeak or Emacs itself)
- 3. What can you do with Geiser? Form evaluation Macro expansion File/module loading and/or compilation Identify completion Autodoc: the echo area shows information about the signature of the procedure/macro around point automatically. Access to documentation (including docstrings when the implementation provides it). Listings of callers/callees of procedures. Rudimentary support for debugging (when the REPL provides a debugger) and error navigation. Support for multiple, simultaneous REPLs. Remote connection to REPL
- 4. Functionalities helper ● Handy until you’ve memorized Geiser commands ( learning device ) ● Ctrl-h m :: another option
- 6. Form evaluation ● You can open a scheme file and evaluate every sexpr and the entire file directly from Emacs !
- 8. Indentation in terminal vs indentation using Geiser
- 11. Remote connect To connect to a distant REPL
- 12. FIRST OPEN A REPL USING THE GEISER MODULE
- 14. Coming soon ! Current thread identification in geiser REPL for multiple connections. Debugging system for multithreadding Remote connection request to Geiser from the REPL You can contribute too ! Suggestions of functionnalities are always welcome too.
- 15. How to configure Geiser with Gambit for full functionalities ? Configure using – enable-rtlib- debug Be sure to add gsi to your terminal path Package- install geiser (from Melpa)
- 16. Missing features: - External documentation - Better debugging system - Modules handling directly from geiser - Compilation Still very usable. LETS DO A DEMO!
