This page lists free software projects that use or enhance Guile.
Right now, the list is only semi-maintained and may contain outdated information. We will move this list over to the Free Software Directory soonish.
To contribute, ask for instructions on the guile-user mailing list. NOTE: If you want your project to appear here on the GNU site, then you MUST include licensing information, and the license has to be acceptably free.
These projects modify the innards of Guile.

Version 0.3 was released in March 2000. </p> <p> Items left to investigate in the future: Translation of Emacs Lisp and bytecodes to Scheme. Replace existing Lisp evaluator. Make Emacs objects into a library for use by other projects. Performance work (definitely!). Thread support (fetch mail and news while editing files!). Rewriting the Emacs UI using existing Guile UI code (e.g., GTk). </p> |

| description | TeXmacs is a free what-you-see-is-what-you-get scientific text editor, which was both inspired by TeX and Emacs. It is also possible to use TeXmacs as an interface to computer algebra systems. TeXmacs actually runs on PC's under Linux (a >200MHz processor and >32Mb of memory are recommended) and on sun computers. The program implements high quality typesetting using TeX fonts, but it is also provides a user friendly interface. The high typesetting quality also goes through for automatically generated formulas; this makes TeXmacs suitable as an interface for computer algebra systems. Finally, TeXmacs support Guile/Scheme as an extension language, which makes it possible to adapt the user interface to specific needs and even to extend the editor. Currently, the editor is more or less compatible with the TeX system and we are working on the interface with computer algebra systems. Subsequently, TeXmacs should also support graphics and some hypertext features. |
| status | The current release of TeXmacs is 0.2.4f (beta) |

These projects are tools for or implemented with Guile. Mostly, these are the types of things that automate documentation or code generation.

| category | Tools/Text |
| description | AutoGen is a tool designed for generating program files that contain repetitive text with varied substitutions. Its goal is to simplify the maintenance of programs that contain large amounts of repetitious text. This is especially valuable if there are several blocks of such text that must be kept synchronized. |
| status | AutoGen has just been made publicly available March 1, 1999. However, it has been under gradual development for several years, so it is quite solid. It is currently being beguiled, so a portion of the command syntax is subject to changing a few months down the road. |
