compile-r7rs is a tool to compile R7RS Scheme programs, it aims for compability with SRFI-138.

Dependencies

For scripts:

apt install sharutils

For binaries:

apt install build-essential

For jar:

apt install default-jdk

Installing

make install

Usage

The environment variable SCMC must be set to the same value as the implementations command. The command is the first word on the list. So for example guile for Guile, csi for Chicken interpreter, csc for Chicken compiler.

If the command has .exe at it's end cross compilation from Linux to .exe with Wine is assumed.

Run

SCMC=<SCHEME> compile-r7rs -I <DIR> <file.scm>

Outputs

Self contained, self extracting and runnable shell script

Requires the Scheme implementation to be installed to run.

• chibi-scheme
• csi (Chicken)
• icyc (Cyclone)
• gsi (Gambit)
• gosh (Gauche)
• guile
• mosh
• sash
• stklos
• skint
• tr7i (tr7)
• ypsilon

Static binary executable

Requires nothing to be installed to run.

• csc (Chicken)
• racket (Racket)

Java ARchive (JAR)

Only requires Java to be installed to run.

• kawa
  • The build folder needs to contain kawa.jar

.exe

• racket.exe

How it works

The scripts searches for .sld files in given paths, compiles them if needed and combines them with the main script to form something that can be run on it's own. Meaning that the only thing the person running the things needs, might be, the Scheme implementation, Java, or nothing.
