    @fare I've run into that a few different ways, but usually it's because the syntax is in a different namespace.
    drewc @drewc now always tends to look at the __0.scm and __1.scm generated when such things pop up.

    Aha, I also had phantom dependencies from build-deps after I renamed a file.

    clearing the .gerbil/lib is usually my second trouble shooting step :)

    And here I had an unregistered new file with a reference to the old module name, so git grep didn't find it.

    As I'm sure you well know, there are times when replacing that "syntax error" with the actual cause of that error would be so enlightening :)

    @vyzo I would like to try out PubSub using libp2p. I am having problem getting it to work properly. My connection is like this -listen unixpath -hostAddrs -pubsub -pubsubRouter gossipsub . What should I do to get it to work properly?

    PS: I may be looking for a new developer to implement a language compiler and runtime on top of Gerbil Scheme.

    @drewc
    Lol, guess what I'm doing right now?
    drewc @drewc is implementing a language compiler and runtime on top of Gerbil Scheme for your GUI

    @ober I see you did rebases in master for confluence and datadog... ttttt
    also slack, kunabi, jira

    @vyzo I tried to (defmethod {foo <boolean>} (lambda (x) 1)) but I can't see how to get <boolean> defined or imported. I see it in the std/generic/builtin.ss:(defprimitive-type <boolean> (boolean)) which has (export #t) but maybe I need to import it at phi -1 or something?
    (import (for-syntax :std/generic/builtin)) doesn't seem to help, either.

    @fare
    Aha, I get it, it's available for (defmethod (foo (x <boolean>)) 1) but not for (defmethod {foo <boolean>} (lambda (self) 1)
    so... how do I define a method on !getopt ?
    fare @fare tries (defprimitive-type <getopt> (|std/getopt[:0:]#!getopt|)) but it doesn't seem to work.
    fare @fare tries (defmethod (foo (x |std/getopt[:0:]#!getopt|)) 2) to no avail
    fare @fare falls back to having the default method have a conditional on (getopt? x)
    fare @fare discovers let-hash and getopt sub-commands.

    and... what is the "best" way to get the path to the current #!/usr/bin/env gxi script?
    as in gxi /home/fare/foo.ss => "/home/fare/foo.ss"

    @vyzo I noticed that peer id comes in this form, /ip4/192.168.43.206/tcp/10333/ipfs/QmPKBMheFUEfFdMH3ZDr8TVpjPL9KRfY7EsBgH4vxUpCFG. Now, why ipfs? And what is the difference between ipfs and p2p protocols here?
    vyzo
    @vyzo
    ipfs is the old name, they are the same thing
    it's been deprecated and called p2p now
    if you want to open a pr that renames that it would be groovy :)

    @janus
    Thanks I would do that ...

    I'm trying to write a macro that registers the current file in a special variable in an attempt to identify the "real" $0, but somehow (this-source-file) throws an error while and (stx-source #'ctx) expands to #f
    from within the macro, but (this-source-file) works outside the macro.

    As I keep building code, the build times also increase :-(
    I suspect there might be some quadratic algorithms in gerbil or gambit... :-/

    @fare
    Does Gerbil have the equivalent of rest arguments for keyword functions?
    how do I extract the test predicate (eq? eqv? equal?) from a hash-table?
    Drew Crampsie
    @drewc
    @fare it does, kinda/sorta. Have a look at keyword-dispatch in gx-gambc0 
    Gerbil v0.16-120-g3f248e13 on Gambit v4.9.3-1234-g6acd87
> (def (foo bar: (baz 'bat) . rest) (display rest))
> (foo bar: 1)                                     
()> (foo #!rest bar: 1)
(bar 1)>
    Drew Crampsie
    @drewc
    As for the predicate, no idea, and I don't think you can. There are at least 3 different impls in Gambit, one is for bootstrap, and none have table-test or the like.
    Having said that, lol
    macro-test-table is in Gambit
    errrr,macro-table-testrather.

    I found my peace with some way of handling arguments.
    Next: what is the Recommended Way™ to install data files needed at runtime?
    Have a (static-file: ...) target, then locate the file with a search in the GERBIL_PATH and GERBIL_LOADPATH ?
    (and is there some builtin function to search that way?)

    @fare
    In the meantime, I launched my first Gerbil-based application: https://glow-lang.org/
