@cindex SCSH
@cindex Scheme Shell
An incomplete port of the Scheme shell (scsh) is available for Guile
as a separate package. The current status of guile-scsh can be found at
@url{http://arglist.com/guile/}.
An incomplete port of the Scheme shell (scsh) was once available for
Guile as a separate package. However this code has bitrotten
somewhat. The pieces are available in Guile's legacy CVS repository,
which may be browsed at
@url{http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/guile/guile-scsh/?root=guile}.
For information about scsh see
@url{http://www.scsh.net/}.
The closest emulation of scsh can be obtained by running:
@lisp
(load-from-path "scsh/init")
@end lisp
See the USAGE file supplied with guile-scsh for more details.
This bitrotting is a bit of a shame, as there is a good deal of
well-written Scheme code in scsh. Adopting this code and porting it to
current Guile should be an educational experience, in addition to
providing something of value to Guile folks.
