-* Overview
-
- Geiser is a generic Emacs/Scheme interaction mode, featuring an
- enhanced REPL and a set of minor modes improving Emacs' basic scheme
- major mode. The main functionalities provided are:
-
- - Evaluation of forms in the namespace of the current module.
- - Macro expansion.
- - File/module loading.
- - Namespace-aware identifier completion (including local bindings,
- names visible in the current module, and module names).
- - Autodoc: the echo area shows information about the signature of
- the procedure/macro around point automatically.
- - Jump to definition of identifier at point.
- - Access to documentation (including docstrings when the
- implementation provides it).
- - Listings of identifiers exported by a given module.
- - Listings of callers/callees of procedures.
- - Rudimentary support for debugging (list of
- evaluation/compilation error in an Emacs' compilation-mode
- buffer).
-
- NOTE: if you're not in a hurry, [[http://www.nongnu.org/geiser/][Geiser's website]] contains a nicer
- manual, also included in Geiser tarballs as a texinfo file
- (doc/geiser.info).
-
-* Supported scheme implementations
-
- - Guile 2.0 (not released yet: use the latest git master branch).
- - PLT Racket 5.0.1 or better.
-
-* Installation
- Geiser can be used either directly from its uninstalled source tree
- or byte-compiled and installed after perfoming the standard
- configure/make/make install dance.
-
-*** 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:
-
- #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
- (load-file "<path-to-geiser>/elisp/geiser.el")
- #+END_SRC
-
-*** Byte-compiled
- - Create a build directory, `build', say:
- #+BEGIN_SRC shell
- $ cd <path-to-geiser>
- $ mkdir build; cd build
- #+END_SRC
- - Configure and make:
- #+BEGIN_SRC shell
- $ ../configure && make
- #+END_SRC
-
- Now, you can use the byte-compiled Geiser in place by adding to
- your .emacs:
-
- #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
- (load "<path-to-geiser>/build/elisp/geiser-load")
- #+END_SRC
-
- or, alternatively, install it with:
-
- #+BEGIN_SRC shell
- $ make install
- #+END_SRC
-
- (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:
-
- #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
- (require 'geiser-install)
- #+END_SRC
-
- You're ready to go!
-
-* Basic configuration
- The loading invocations above install all supported Scheme
- implementations. You can list explicitly the ones that you want by
- setting the variable `geiser-impl-installed-implementations' *before*
- loading geiser.el. For instance:
-
- #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
- (setq geiser-impl-installed-implementations '(racket guile))
- #+END_SRC
-
- On opening a scheme file, Geiser will try to guess its Scheme,
- defaulting to the first in the list. Use `C-c C-s' to select the
- implementation by hand (on a per file basis).
-
- Check the geiser customization group for some options with:
-
- M-x customize-group RET geiser RET
-
- In particular, customize `geiser-<impl>-binary', which should point
- to an executable in your path.
-
- To start a REPL, M-x geiser.
-
-*** Completion with company-mode
- Geiser offers identifier and module name completion, bound to
- M-TAB and M-` respectively. Only names visible in the current
- module are offered.
-
- While that is cool and all, things are even better: if you have
- [[http://nschum.de/src/emacs/company-mode/][company-mode]] installed, Geiser's completion will use it. Just
- require company-mode and, from then on, any new scheme buffer or
- REPL will use it. If you didn't know about Nikolaj Schumacher's
- awesome mode, check [[http://www.screentoaster.com/watch/stU0lSRERIR1pYRFVdXVlRVFFV/company_mode_for_gnu_emacs][this screencast]].
