hi guys

what is the salary range for intermediate clojure developer?

Anybody here know of any schemers? I’m thinking of working through SICP and I thought it would be good to get an implementation of Scheme running in Emacs. I think I need some adult supervision to get it set up though 🙂

@keithsparkjoy: what OS?

Running OSX

hmmm, I wrote this for Ubuntu a while back (http://davintryon.blogspot.co.uk/2014/03/emacs-racket-on-ubuntu.html)

the tools are largely the same

Ahh very good

Thanks @davin I’ll check it out

np

@keithsparkjoy: If I remember correctly you still need to map the language in using .emacs

I have this in my .emacs:

;; geiser racket path
(setq geiser-racket-binary "/Applications/Racket/bin/racket”)

I was setting up Racket lang

but something similar for Scheme

Thanks. I see you went through SICP - did you find it pretty straightforward using Racket? Never used either Racket or Scheme and not sure how different they are.

Yes, Racket worked well for everything

Great news, because Scheme seems kinda dead these days. Racket looks like it’s alive and well.

Yes, Dr. Racket is the easiest way to get up and running

And then you can integrate the racket in the bin into emacs after downloading

Awesome thanks a bunch.
