Greetings,
I have been wondering for a while what the "optimal" workflow is when
working with Chicken (or most other Schemes, for that matter). I
suspect that the way I develop Chicken code is too much like how I use
Python, and that there should be better ways to do it.
Right now, when I write a program in Chicken, it looks something like
this. I have Emacs open with a number of Scheme files loaded. I have a
terminal window open with a csi session, and a browser window with
tabs for Chickadee, the Chicken manual and maybe other Scheme
resources. To try/test code, I use csi -s or -ss at the shell prompt,
and unit tests.
>From what I understand, this is not very "lispy" at all (having seen
videos of people using Common Lisp with SLIME, etc). How do people
here develop in Scheme?
(I tried http://community.schemewiki.org/?emacs-tutorial but it
doesn't tell me much that I didn't already know, and the C-x h C-c C-r
trick to send stuff to the Scheme REPL doesn't work properly for some
reason.)
Any advice welcome...
Thanks,
