<p>The rest of this manual is organised into the following chapters.

<dl class="table">

<dt><strong class="strong">Chapter 2: Hello Guile!</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>A whirlwind tour shows how Guile can be used interactively and as
|
||
|
|
a script interpreter, how to link Guile into your own applications,
|
||
|
|
and how to write modules of interpreted and compiled code for use with
|
||
|
|
Guile. Everything introduced here is documented again and in full by
|
||
|
|
the later parts of the manual.
|

</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Chapter 3: Hello Scheme!</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>For readers new to Scheme, this chapter provides an introduction to the basic
|
||
|
|
ideas of the Scheme language. This material would apply to any Scheme
|
||
|
|
implementation and so does not make reference to anything Guile-specific.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Chapter 4: Programming in Scheme</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Provides an overview of programming in Scheme with Guile. It covers how to
|
||
|
|
invoke the <code class="code">guile</code> program from the command-line and how to write scripts
|
||
|
|
in Scheme. It also introduces the extensions that Guile offers beyond standard
|
||
|
|
Scheme.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Chapter 5: Programming in C</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Provides an overview of how to use Guile in a C program. It
|
||
|
|
discusses the fundamental concepts that you need to understand to
|
||
|
|
access the features of Guile, such as dynamic types and the garbage
|
||
|
|
collector. It explains in a tutorial like manner how to define new
|
||
|
|
data types and functions for the use by Scheme programs.
|
||

|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Chapter 6: Guile API Reference</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>This part of the manual documents the Guile <abbr class="acronym">API</abbr> in
|
||
|
|
functionality-based groups with the Scheme and C interfaces presented
|
||
|
|
side by side.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Chapter 7: Guile Modules</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Describes some important modules, distributed as part of the Guile
|
||
|
|
distribution, that extend the functionality provided by the Guile
|
||
|
|
Scheme core.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Chapter 8: GOOPS</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Describes GOOPS, an object oriented extension to Guile that provides
|
||
|
|
classes, multiple inheritance and generic functions.
