108 <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
109 2008 it is nearing a releasable state and is in use on
110 <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>

131
132 <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
133 it used the SBCL timer extension. I wanted to run something using Clon
134 on <a href="http://trac.clozure.com/openmcl">Clozure CL</a> and so I looked at the SBCL source and found that, after
135 a bit of fairly straightforward editing, it was possible to write a
136 portable version for any compiler supporting <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/bordeaux-threads/">Bordeaux Threads</a>. The
137 SBCL timers internally use <code>sb-unix:setittimer</code>; Rather than using
138 <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/osicat/">Osicat</a> to emulate this I chose to rework the scheduling loop to run in
139 a dedicated thread that sleeps on a condition variable with a
140 timeout. This seems <em>cleaner</em> to me than using POSIX lib calls, but
141 requires a threaded Lisp.</p>
142
143 <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
144 native SBCL implementation and a portable implementation relying upon
145 <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/bordeaux-threads/">Bordeaux Threads</a>. Patches to export other Lisp implementations' timer
146 interface are welcome.</p>

155
156 <p class="first">A simple SWIG based wrapper for <a href="http://www.ignavus.net/software.html">libxosd2</a>. I forked this from
157 <a href="https://gna.org/projects/guile-xosd">guile-xosd</a> after the maintainer did not respond to an email with a
158 small patch to make the interface nicer. Guile-XOSD2 requires SWIG
159 1.3.x and has been tested against the VM branch of Guile. I renamed
160 most of the functions to have properly Scheme names.</p>

177
178 <p class="first">I used to work on some programs in terrible languages like <code>C++</code> when I
179 was a poor misguided youth. I still attempt to respond to bug reports
180 and patches for any that are still in use (<em>Bobot++</em> appears to be the
181 only one), but they are otherwise not being worked upon.</p>
182
183 <h3><a name="sec12" id="sec12"></a>
184 <a href="../code/bobot.html">Bobot++</a></h3>
185
186 <p class="first">A fancy little IRC bot that is extensible with Scheme. If you can
187 figure out the scripting interface (which is <a href="../code/bobotpp-manual.html#SEC35">partially documented</a>) it
188 is fairly powerful. <code>dsmith</code> from <code>#guile</code> has a nicely featured bot
189 written on top of Bobot++; if I find time I shall attempt to post the
190 source.</p>
191
192 <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
193 sporadically working to make the internals of the bot fully threadsafe
194 so that multithreaded Scheme extensions don't run into issues. I may
195 potentially clean up the Scheme interface as well (as it was clearly
196 not designed by a Schemer and I was not so well versed in proper style
197 in 2002 when I did most of my work on Bobot++).</p>

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