Dear Chickeneers,
with the workshop having been yesterday I thought I'd report back on how
it went. First of all I'd like to thank the CCC Cologne for providing
the space and equipment for the workshop, it's always nice to be a guest
in your rooms. Also thanks to all participants for attending

every participant wondered about was that csi didn't provide readline
support out of the box.
The answer is that supplying readline by default would require csi to
be released under the GPL. There are two ways around this problem that

We should not limit ourselves to libraries written in C! Ocaml has the
same issue with readline, since it uses a funky French license, and one
of their solutions is ledit, an rlwrap-like program implemented entirely
in Ocaml. Chicken already has all the bindings to the core C I/O

Apparently, there is also a Common Lisp implementation of readline
(MIT-licensed):
http://common-lisp.net/project/linedit/
It looks baroque, but perhaps bits and pieces can be scavenged for a
minimal Chicken readline.

Keep in mind, though, that readline provides a lot more than just history
(like completion, or my beloved vi mode...). Seems like a lot
Of course, you will always be able to install the readline egg. This
is about providing minimal readline functionality to new users who don't
know yet about chicken-install, and who run csi expecting to have
command history and perhaps completion available to them. I don't think

Haskell should be just as fast as c especially for something that
basic. There is a whole set of common unix utilities implemented in
very short one liners.

I got similar, but slightly different results (Fedora 14, 64-bit, core i7):
(time per run in wall seconds)
c: 0.001086
bash: 0.002742
py: 0.000336
scm: 0.005199
pl: 0.000344
so bash slightly beat out perl, and chicken came in last of the 5. Didn't
bother with mono or java.

I've been waiting for some free time to clean it up before making some
of my projects public but obviously that day will never come. So, for
better or for worse I've put a few of my little projects at
http://www.kiatoa.com/fossils/opensrc just in case they are of use to
someone.
Cheers,
Matt
