| 1 | This directory contains documentation on the Guile core. -*-text-*- |
| 2 | |
| 3 | The documentation consists of the following manuals. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | - The Guile Tutorial (guile-tut.texi) contains a tutorial introduction |
| 6 | to using Guile. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | - The Guile Reference Manual (guile.texi) contains (or is intended to |
| 9 | contain) reference documentation on all aspects of Guile. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | - The Revised^5 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme (r5rs.texi). |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Please be aware that this is all very much work in progress (apart |
| 14 | from the Revised^5 Report). Bug reports and contributions are |
| 15 | welcome! |
| 16 | |
| 17 | The `sources' directory includes some stuff relevant to the Guile |
| 18 | reference manual, and which may eventually be folded in to it. It's |
| 19 | not immediately relevant, however, which is why it's not in this |
| 20 | directory. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | The Revised^4 Report (r4rs.texi) is no longer in this distribution, as |
| 23 | it is completely superseded by the Revised^5 Report. If you need to |
| 24 | consult R4RS, it is still widely available, for example at |
| 25 | http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/projects/info/SchemeDocs/r4rs/. |
