Does anyone know how I to create empty environments in Guile Scheme
(preferably 1.8)?
The task at hand is well known: the user of an text editor can input
complex commands with parameters (a little bit like in Emacs). Now I
would like to read these commands as single procedure calls
with its parameters as an s-_expression_. But then how do I evaluate
it in a special environment where only the editor commands are
available by default?
The (null-environment 5) gives me an empty environment but
how should I insert the editor commands? Last time I checked (that
was about some years ago when I didn't really need it) I found some
C only routines but maybe I mixed them up with the UNIX process
environment (variables).
How do I create a hygienic algorithmic text editor language within
the Algorithmic Language Scheme?
Perhaps it's even better to give access to the usual Guile top level
environment ...
