Question for anyone familiar with #Scheme programming, and in particular #Guile (@wingo): how hard would it be to port GOOPS to other Scheme implementations like #Chez, #Gauche, Gerbil, or Chicken? I know that other Scheme implementations provide their own #OOP systems (e.g. Chicken COOPS), but what if I want my library written in Guile to be more portable, could I still use GOOPS and try to move the code over to some other platform?

Or has this already been done? Is there a portable GOOPS, akin to a large Scheme library such as SLIB?

#r7rs #r6rs #r5rs

You know #TDD ?! What? I mean #tootDrivenDevelopment ? 🤔🤔

♥️ I need help to figure out what it looks like! ♥️

I start with a simple #scheme #code #snippet and you modify it. The resulting code has to fit in one toot!
If you can't execute the code. It's broken. The last committer should fix it.
So make it portable ! 🚀

I'd like some recommendations for tutorials on #Scheme macros. #R5RS syntax-rules for sure, but beyond that, er- and ir-transformers, or #R6RS syntax-case, it's all up for grabs.

The motivation is to try to encourage colleagues to move beyond defmacro.
