<a href="http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=golgonooza;a=summary">Golgonooza</a></h4>

<p class="verse">
Fourfold the Sons of Los in their divisions: and fourfold.<br />
The great City of Golgonooza: fourfold toward the north<br />
And toward the south fourfold, &amp; fourfold toward the east &amp; west<br />
Each within other toward the four points: that toward<br />
Eden. and that toward the World of Generation.<br />
And that toward Beulah. and that toward Ulro;<br />
Ulro is the space of the terrible starry wheels of Albions sons:<br />
But that toward Eden is walled up. till time of renovation:<br />
Yet it is perfect in its building. ornaments &amp; perfection.<br />
</p>

<p>Golgonooza is a set of utility components for <a href="http://common-lisp.net/projects/ucw/repos/ucw-core/">ucw-core</a>. As of December
2008 it is nearing a releasable state and is in use on
<a href="http://bees-kneesfilms.com">one production site online</a> (<a href="http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=beesknees;a=summary">darcsweb::beesknees</a> for source).</p>


<h4><a name="sec4" id="sec4"></a>
<a href="http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=ucw-forms;a=summary">ucw-forms</a></h4>

<p class="first">ucw-forms is a slightly enhanced and de-javascripted version of the
forms library from ucw_ajax updated for use with ucw-core.</p>


<h4><a name="sec5" id="sec5"></a>
<a href="http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=ucw-core_clinton;a=summary">ucw-core branch</a></h4>

<p class="first">I maintain a personal branch of ucw-core with various work in progress
patches that are intended to go upstream. My primary task is filling
in the ucw-standard library which was removed in the ucw-core fork.</p>


<h3><a name="sec6" id="sec6"></a>
<a href="http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=trivial-timers;a=summary">Trivial-Timers</a></h3>

<p><a href="http://retes.hu/~mega/git/?p=clon.git;a=summary">Clon</a> is a nice library for scheduling tasks within a Lisp image, but
it used the SBCL timer extension. I wanted to run something using Clon
on <a href="http://trac.clozure.com/openmcl">Clozure CL</a> and so I looked at the SBCL source and found that, after
a bit of fairly straightforward editing, it was possible to write a
portable version for any compiler supporting <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/bordeaux-threads/">Bordeaux Threads</a>. The
SBCL timers internally use <code>sb-unix:setittimer</code>; Rather than using
<a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/osicat/">Osicat</a> to emulate this I chose to rework the scheduling loop to run in
a dedicated thread that sleeps on a condition variable with a
timeout. This seems <em>cleaner</em> to me than using POSIX lib calls, but
requires a threaded Lisp.</p>

<p><a href="http://releases.unknownlamer.org/trivial-timers/">Releases are available</a> with the usual <a href="http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=trivial-timers;a=summary">darcs repo</a>. Currently there is a
native SBCL implementation and a portable implementation relying upon
<a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/bordeaux-threads/">Bordeaux Threads</a>. Patches to export other Lisp implementations' timer
interface are welcome.</p>


<h2><a name="sec7" id="sec7"></a>
Scheme</h2>

<h3><a name="sec8" id="sec8"></a>
<a href="http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=guile-xosd2;a=summary">Guile XOSD2</a></h3>

<p class="first">A simple SWIG based wrapper for <a href="http://www.ignavus.net/software.html">libxosd2</a>. I forked this from
<a href="https://gna.org/projects/guile-xosd">guile-xosd</a> after the maintainer did not respond to an email with a
small patch to make the interface nicer. Guile-XOSD2 requires SWIG
1.3.x and has been tested against the VM branch of Guile. I renamed
most of the functions to have properly Scheme names.</p>


<h2><a name="sec9" id="sec9"></a>
Standard ML</h2>

<h3><a name="sec10" id="sec10"></a>
<a href="http://wiki.hcoop.net/DomTool">Domtool</a></h3>

<p class="first">Originally authored by <a href="http://www.schizomaniac.net/">Adam Chlipala</a>, as of late 2010 I have been
tasked with keeping it up to date for <a href="http://hcoop.net">HCoop</a>.</p>


<h2><a name="sec11" id="sec11"></a>
Old Projects</h2>

<p class="first">I used to work on some programs in terrible languages like <code>C++</code> when I
was a poor misguided youth. I still attempt to respond to bug reports
and patches for any that are still in use (<em>Bobot++</em> appears to be the
only one), but they are otherwise not being worked upon.</p>

<h3><a name="sec12" id="sec12"></a>
<a href="../code/bobot.html">Bobot++</a></h3>

<p class="first">A fancy little IRC bot that is extensible with Scheme. If you can
figure out the scripting interface (which is <a href="../code/bobotpp-manual.html#SEC35">partially documented</a>) it
is fairly powerful. <code>dsmith</code> from <code>#guile</code> has a nicely featured bot
written on top of Bobot++; if I find time I shall attempt to post the
source.</p>

<p>There is now a <a href="http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=bobot%2B%2B;a=summary">darcs repo</a> available with a few minor changes. I am
sporadically working to make the internals of the bot fully threadsafe
so that multithreaded Scheme extensions don't run into issues. I may
potentially clean up the Scheme interface as well (as it was clearly
not designed by a Schemer and I was not so well versed in proper style
in 2002 when I did most of my work on Bobot++).</p>


<h3><a name="sec13" id="sec13"></a>
<a href="../code/guile-web.html">Guile-Web</a></h3>

<p class="first">A perhaps still useful library of web related utilities for
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/guile.html">Guile Scheme</a>. Be warned that the serializer is inefficient, consy, and
hacky as Hell, but the <a href="../code/guile-web-manual.html#SEC6">XHTML generation library</a> might be useful.</p>
