@c AUTHORS
@c The Guile reference and tutorial manuals were written and edited
@c largely by Mark Galassi and Jim Blandy. In particular, Jim wrote the
@c original tutorial on Guile's data representation and the C API for
@c accessing Guile objects.
@c Significant portions were contributed by Gary Houston (contributions
@c to POSIX system calls and networking, expect, I/O internals and
@c extensions, slib installation, error handling) and Tim Pierce
@c (sections on script interpreter triggers, alists, function tracing).
@c Tom Lord contributed a great deal of material with early Guile
@c snapshots; although most of this text has been rewritten, all of it
@c was important, and some of the structure remains.
@c Aubrey Jaffer wrote the SCM Scheme implementation and manual upon
@c which the Guile program and manual are based. Some portions of the
@c SCM and SLIB manuals have been included here verbatim.
@c Since Guile 1.4, Neil Jerram has been maintaining and improving the
@c reference manual. Among other contributions, he wrote the Basic
@c Ideas chapter, developed the tools for keeping the manual in sync
@c with snarfed libguile docstrings, and reorganized the structure so as
@c to accommodate docstrings for all Guile's primitives.
@c Martin Grabmueller has made substantial contributions throughout the
@c reference manual in preparation for the Guile 1.6 release, including
@c filling out a lot of the documentation of Scheme data types, control
@c mechanisms and procedures. In addition, he wrote the documentation
@c for Guile's SRFI modules and modules associated with the Guile REPL.
