Eggs Unlimited (release branch 3, updated Mon Mar 9 20:23:48 2009)
A library of extensions for the Chicken Scheme system.
Installation
Just enter
$ chicken-setup EXTENSIONNAME
This will download anything needed to compile and install the library. If your extension repository is placed at a location for which you don't have write permissions, then run chicken-setup as root. You can obtain the repository location by running
$ chicken-setup -repository
If you only want to download the extension and install it later, pass the -fetch option to chicken-setup:
$ chicken-setup -fetch EXTENSIONNAME
By default the archive will be unpacked into a temporary directory (named EXTENSIONNAME.egg-dir and the directory will be removed if the installation completed successfully. To keep the extracted files add -keep to the options passed to chicken-setup.
For more information, enter
$ chicken-setup -help
