[ANN] Guile-SDL2 0.1.0 released

From: Thompson, David Subject: [ANN] Guile-SDL2 0.1.0 released Date: Tue, 22 Dec 2015 15:11:34 -0500

Hello Guilers, I am pleased to announce the first release of Guile-SDL2, pure Guile Scheme bindings to the SDL2 game programming library. Guile-SDL2 not only provides low-level bindings to the SDL2 C API, it also provides a high-level, more Schemey interface for happier hacking. In addition to bindings for the core SDL2 API, bindings for the SDL2_image, SDL2_mixer, and SDL2_ttf extension libraries are also available. Since this is the first release, Guile-SDL2 is far from feature complete. Thus far, I've wrapped just enough functions and data structures to port my own game framework, Sly, to SDL 2.0 from SDL 1.2. It will take the help of the friendly Guile community to expand upon this base and provide a complete set of bindings. Unfortunately, this release lacks a proper texinfo manual as I am in a time crunch to prepare Sly for the upcoming Lisp Game Jam, [0] but I hope to remedy this in the next release. If you are interested in hacking on additional bindings, fixing bugs that may be lurking, or writing documentation, patches can be sent directly to my email address, and real-time discussion can happen in #guile on Freenode.
