.TH CHICKEN-SETUP 1 "25 Jan 2004"
.SH NAME
chicken-setup - program to simplify building and installation of extension libraries for the
.I CHICKEN
Scheme system.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B chicken-setup
[
.I option
]
[
.I extension
]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I chicken\-setup
is a program that compiles and installs a prepackaged extension
library. Extension libraries are either plain Scheme files with the
.B \.scm
file-extension or gzipped tar files with the file-extension
.B \.egg
Single Scheme files are compiled into a dynamically loadable file
and installed in the extension repository. More complex installation
procedures can be performed by packaging an extension in an
.B \.egg
archive, that in addition to the source files contains a Scheme
script of the same name as the library, but with the
.B \.setup
file-extension. After extracting the files the setup script will
be loaded and executed.
.I chicken\-setup
is a full Scheme interpreter with the same functionality as
.I csi
but with a number of additional procedures and macros to
simplify the building and installation of extension libraries.
See the
