* Overview

This directory contains examples illustrating various aspects of Guile

programming.

If you plan writing Scheme programs, have a look at the `scripts'

directory. To learn more about Guile modules, check out the `modules'

directory, and maybe the `box-module' and `box-dynamic-module'

directories, if you are into C programming or shared libraries,

respectively. The `safe' directory contains examples for evaluation

Scheme code in controlled environments (sandboxing). The directories

`box', `box-module', `box-dynamic' and `box-dynamic-module' are

interesting if you plan writing Guile extensions.

See the README files in the subdirectories for details.

* Included Examples

scripts Examples for writing simple scripts in Guile Scheme.

box Example for extending Guile with a new data type.

box-module Similar to `box', but defines new procedures in a

named module.

box-dynamic Implements the box type in a dynamically loadable

library.

box-dynamic-module Combination of `box-module' and `box-dynamic':

Implements the `box' type in a shared library and

defines the procedures in a Guile module.

modules Examples for writing and using Guile modules.

safe Examples for creating and using safe environments.

web Simple web servers.

compat autoconf code for making a Guile extension

compatible with older versions of Guile.
