scheme and autotools removals
The plan is to have geiser-core contain only, well, the elisp core engine. The autotools scafolding is no really worth it, so it's gone too (and in the process, i'll look younger).

-Installing Geiser.
-------------------
-
-Geiser is usable from its source tree, with no configuration
-whatsoever, or can be installed from ELPA with `M-x install-package'
-is Marmalade is in your list of archives. You can also (byte) compile
-and install it with the usual configure/make/make install dance.
-
-* From ELPA
-
-Add Marmalade to your `package-archives' list:
-
- (require 'package)
- (add-to-list 'package-archives
- '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/"))
- (package-initialize)
-
-and run `M-x install-package RET geiser`. You can also use
-http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/geiser/packages as a repo,
-or download directly the package from there and use M-x
-package-install-file.
-
-* In place
- - Extract the tarball or clone the git repository anywhere in your
- file system. Let's call that place <path-to-geiser>.
- - In your .emacs:
-
- (load-file "<path-to-geiser>/elisp/geiser.el")
-
-* Byte-compiled
- - Create a build directory, `build', say:
- $ cd <path-to-geiser>
- $ mkdir build; cd build
- - Configure and make:
- $ ../configure && make
-
- Now, you can use the byte-compiled Geiser in place by adding to
- your .emacs:
-
- (load "<path-to-geiser>/build/elisp/geiser-load")
-
- or, alternatively, install it with:
-
- $ make install
-
- (you might need to get root access, depending on your installation
- directory) and, instead of the above load forms, require
- 'geiser-install (not 'geiser, mind you) in your emacs
- initialization file:
-
- (require 'geiser-install)
-
-* Chicken Addendum
- These steps are necessary to fully support Chicken Scheme, but are
- not required for any other scheme.
-
- - Install the necessary support eggs:
- $ chicken-install -s apropos chicken-doc
- - Update the Chicken documentation database:
- $ cd `csi -p '(chicken-home)'`
- $ curl http://3e8.org/pub/chicken-doc/chicken-doc-repo.tgz | sudo tar zx
-
- You're ready to go!
-
-* Gambit Addendum
- These steps are necessary to fully support all Gambit Scheme functionalities,
- but are not required for any other scheme.
-
- # SETUP :
- 1 - clone the last version of gambit and of this repo
- 2 - configure gambit using --enable-rtlib-debug-source to activate autodoc
- ``` bash
- $ cd ~/
- $ git clone "the gambit repo address"
- $ cd gambit
- $ ./configure --enable-single-host --enable-debug --enable-rtlib-debug-source
- $ make bootstrap
- $ make bootclean
- $ make -j
- $ make install
- ```
- 3 - put a link to geiser/elisp/geiser.el in your init file
- in your init file paste :
- ``` elisp
- (load-file "~/geiser/elisp/geiser.el")
- ```
- (the path is your path to geiser.el.)
-
- # setup REMOTE CONNECT TO A GAMBIT REPL
- 1 - you need to enable the gambit/geiser module
- ( if you can't, substitute the command below
- with the PS: at the end of the readme )
- ``` bash
- $ mkdir ~/gambit/lib/gambit/geiser
- $ cp ~/geiser/geiser-module/* ~/gambit/lib/geiser/
- ```
- 2 - now that you have the module you start gsi with it and using the -:d@
- ``` bash
- $ gsi -:d gambit/geiser -
- ```
- 3 - you can now open emacs and write
- ```
- M-x geiser-connect gambit
- ```
- Enjoy !
-
-By the way, if you are unable to use gambit modules,
-open gsi with the gambit.scm file
-located in geiser/scheme/gambit/geiser/gambit.scm
-
-something like : gsi -:d@ ~/geiser/scheme/gambit/geiser/gambit.scm -
-
-Geiser's makefile accepts also all those other standard autotools
-targets that you've come to know and love and that are documented
-in virtually all boilerplate INSTALL files out there.
