In the first episode I asked for some help to complete my Guile binding to OpenSSL, which I have to admit is not much fun to code.
Now I have written a binding[1] to GD[2] (the graphics library etc.) which, you have to admit IS somewhat funny. Most of the code is there, with the exception of FreeType font text functions: I cannot write code and test the library with FreeType now, I need some help. So, if you are a Linux+GNU user, you may try to complete it and then send me a patch or a C file with the additional functions and a Scheme file with some tests. Discussion can take place on the 'gee-users' mailing list, hosted at GNA! It is not difficult to code it: we are talking about a direct interface to 3 functions: gdImageStringFT gdImageStringFTEx gdImageStringFTCircle it is "long", though, because there are many options to be selected. To ease the browsing I have translated the original GD documentation from (bad) HTML to (nice) Texinfo source: you'll find 'gd.texi' in the 'gd' directory of the GEE distribution. The file is full of C code examples. At present even a simple report like "I can build the source and successfully run the tests" is helpful for me.
