Guile-WWW is a set of Guile Scheme modules for making URI requests (client side), as well as for doing listener setup (INET and UNIX domain), HTTP request parsing, MIME lookup, cookie handling, response packing, and logging (server side). Its core was originally written by Tim Pierce. It is released under the GNU GPLv3+ along with a manual in texinfo format (i.e., the source for the online documentation).
Guile "auto-compilation" suppressed
By dint of the env var ‘GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE’ having the value "0"
in both the configure script and the test driver, both configure
and "make check" phases suppress the compilation of .scm to .go
files now. For "make", you still have to do it yourself.
portability tweak for Guile 2.2
Guile 2.2 prefers a symbolic arg to ‘setvbuf’. No problem.
