@eq is this the image you were talking about
@eq it's beautiful
@jordyd thanks, the bash scripts i used to make it aren't
@eq there is no such thing as a beautiful bash script
@eq even Perl is an improvement at that point
@jordyd it also uses perl
@jordyd but only because sed only lets you use 9 replacement expressions
@eq nothing wrong with Perl for sed/awk/bash-like uses
@eq Are you aware of scsh (Scheme shell)?
@jordyd Yeah but I'm lazy. if I wanted to make this properly I wouldn't have done it at all
@eq Well, finding a modern, working scsh implementation is a project in itself anyway
@eq This is entirely unrelated, but I want to see an R7RS implementation that is usable for both embedding (like Lua) and extending (like Python or Guile)
@jordyd I barely ever use r7rs tbh, I mostly just stick with r5rs because it works with everything. also guile is practically made to be embedded as a scripting language? or do you mean, like, on embedded devices
@eq The terminology is ambiguous but I'm using it the way Tcl uses it, which is like this:
embedding is when you compile the library together with custom native code into a single executable with no dependencies
extending is when you provide an extension (whether in the scripting language or a native module) to the already-existing interpreter as a loadable module
@eq So for example, chibi-scheme is an R7RS implementation which is good for embedding, as it's written entirely in C99 with no external dependencies, and is easy to link into a custom executable
