"Guile is a GNU project, which means that if you care about (say) Windows (gasp), you're shit out of luck."

Are you using StumpWM on windows?



I am addressing Guile being in my view one of the worst Scheme implementations out there, StumpWM has nothing to do with this. Being tied to, effectively, a single platform does.


Sure. I just think it's a little weird to demand portability from something whose raison d'être is as an extension language for its host OS, in a context where we were originally discussing an extension language for something that is likewise non-portable.
