TODO List


(generated from the file TODO in the 12/31/1997 snapshot)

Add facilities for debugging Scheme programs.
The low-level debugging support is done, and we are now working on the user interface.
Documentation.
We have a new layout for the reference manual which covers the C/Scheme interface, as well as the scheme variants. We also want a more thorough tutorial manual, but we haven't sketched that out yet.
Desired later on
Good interface to Tk
Add a convenient facility for running a pipeline of processes with redirections.
Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz> is working on this.
Make it possible to link Guile and TK without using libtcl.a
provide Guile-based replacements for the libtcl.a functions that TK requires.
Make ordinary lambda functions work as callbacks for Tk
eliminate the need for tcl-lambda.
Translators for additional languages
in particular, Perl, Python, TCL, Emacs Lisp, and Rexx.
Clean up declarations of C functions
use a PROTO macro for conditional prototypes, instead of explicit conditionals.
A package for time conversions and formatting.
Make GDB work with Guile
This would permit programmable debugging and a nice integrated GUI.
