[$] Using Guile for Emacs

Date:
Mon, 16 Dec 2024 14:12:46 +0000

Description:
Emacs is, famously, an
editorperhaps far morethat is extensible using its own
variant of the Lisp programming language, Emacs
Lisp (or Elisp). This year's
edition of EmacsConf , which is an annual "gathering" that has been held
online for the past five years, had two separate talks on using a different
variant of Lisp, Guile ,
for Emacs.  Both projects would preserve Elisp compatibility, which is a
must, but they would use Guile differently.  The first talk we will cover
was given by Robin Templeton, who described the relaunch of the Guile-Emacs 
project , which would replace
the Elisp in Emacs with a compiler using Guile.  A subsequent article will 
look
at the other talk, which is about an Emacs clone written
using Guile.
