Hi there,
I think we're all happy that Guile is getting this support, however I
couldn't help but notice that the above results look a bit funny and
indeed are incompatible with racket's implementation:
> (regexp-split "([^0-9])" "123+456*/")
'("123" "456" "" "")
Apparently because their version doesn't support capturing groups in
this function. I've raised the issue with them as well, but there are
some doubts that it is useful/sane to support this. Perhaps other
schemes' regexp libraries should be compared as well. Their tests
would certainly be useful and may point out other incompatibilities
that no-one is aware of (as well as improve your code(!)).
