This is just a FYI for the benefit of some fellow noob who might have questions about invoking the chicken REPL in emacs on ubuntu linux.
This presumes that geiser-mode is enabled for emacs When choosing chicken from the geiser->run menu I got the following error message """ No chicken-doc repository found at: "/usr/share/chicken/chicken-doc" """ To correct, I invoked the following : sudo chicken-install chicken-doc The previously quoted error message was repeated. Assuming that the chicken-doc repository was a separate installation from chicken-doc, a little research led me to invoke the following: """ curl http://3e8.org/pub/chicken-doc/chicken-doc-repo.tgz """ Once that was done, the REPL still failed to load with an error message referring to the absence of the apropos module. This was solved by the following : """ sudo chicken-install apropos """ So, now I have the chicken REPL running asynchronously in emacs. cheers -- Tim http://www.akwebsoft.com, http://www.tj49.com _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
