scheme-script organization created Lassi Kortela 26 Jun 2021 11:15 UTC

There finally exists <https://github.com/scheme-script>. I've meant to
make this for a long time, but didn't get around to it until now.

This is an organization for collecting Scheme scripts (small
command-line programs) that are hopefully useful to more than one
person. Goals:

- Show that Scheme is a good scripting language.

- Find ways to make it a better scripting language.

- Aim for portable scripts where that isn't too hard to do, but starting
from scripts that run in a single Scheme implementation is fine.

- R5RS, R6RS, and R7RS all fair game.

- The name of the organization comes from `#! /usr/bin/env
scheme-script`. This convention has existed for a long time, but we
haven't figured out a scheme-script implementation that is useful for
writing complex, portable scripts. If the scheme-script organization
amasses a big collection of non-trivial scripts, we will have a good
body of work that shows what features are needed in a useful
`scheme-script`. A SRFI could then be written from that basis.

It doesn't cost anything to add people to the organization, so I'm happy
to add anyone known from the SRFI lists or IRC who wants to join and add
some of their scripts. Hopefully peer review will gradually improve our
homegrown scripts to be more useful and polished.

https://gitlab.com/scheme-script is still available. If someone prefers
to use GitLab instead of GitHub, please register that organization. We
could also make a simple site under scheme.org eventually.
