[Larceny-users] Larceny Update

[Ray Racine]

FYI,

Merged all the latest bug fixes as of this weekend. Everything working
fine. Thanks for working the tickets.
I need to look into a UTF-8 problem (on my end) now that transcoded-port
works.

A check of my GIT/SVN tree and I see only one substantive difference.
I have a hack to allow for colon separated paths to R6RS libs.

i.e., larceny -err5rs -path /code/rl3/repo/rl3:/code/rl3/repo/bravais/src

BTW happy to put up a Larceny logo and/or some kind of "powered by Larceny"
blurb just let me know.

Glad it's working for you. Thanks for telling us how
it's going.

May we use your code to add that hack to Larceny? (But I
couldn't find the code at http://github.com/GreyLensman/rl3/ )

By the way, may we add links to http://github.com/GreyLensman/rl3/
and http://www.knozama.com/ at one of Larceny's web pages?

That's cool, Ray. We don't have a logo, but a link to
Larceny from a "powered by Larceny" text would be nice.
Thanks.

I just work off of a local checkout of Larceny's SVN where I add any work
arounds (now effectively zero with the tickets caught up).
Its a small hack in the sense I cut and pasted a pre-existing Larceny
procedure for path parsing and added an if statement.
Total original code contribution, 2 lines if I recall.

A git-diff is attached.

By the way, may we add links to http://github.com/GreyLensman/rl3/
and http://www.knozama.com/ at one of Larceny's web pages?

Thanks. Much work to do yet. Plan is go "official" live on Oct. 1.
Link at anytime however.

Small delay... Turns out its a rather delicate exercise to use the words
"Larceny" and "Scheme" in such a manner as to not scare the Holy Bejesus out
of a site visitor.

I am doing the site "About" page later today and promise to get it in there
for sure.

However, it Just might not be feasible to have the phrase "Knozama, Designed
and Developed for Larceny", "Knozama, Developed By Scheming Larcenists For
Your Retail Enjoyment", "Knozama, Serving content for Life via Larceny." or
"Knozama, A Larceny Scheme Site." on every page.

Too bad Lars first name wasn't Hon then we'd have "Knozama, Powered By
Honesty".

Whatever works for you, Ray. "Powered by Scheme" would
be just fine. Whether you want to say anything at all,
or to link to Larceny's home page, is entirely up to you.

Good luck with Knozama.

Well, I managed to get it in there, in real teeny-tiny type, hidden far, far
away on a remote page. : )

Its on the about page. http://www.knozama.com/about

The full page itself is not done yet.

I knew you'd say that.

Thanks, soon as I start to gross a million a year I'm going to fund a grad
student. Don't stop writing grant requests just yet however, as total
revenue to date is 66 cents.
