This project provides Guile bindings for libraries that do text processing.
It may someday also include a sample editor.
09 Nov 2009: The Unicode support in Guile itself is now basically complete for the 1.9.x branch. When Guile 2.0 is released, it will support all the basic Unicode functionality. As such, the GuICU project, which wraps IBM's International Components for Unicode is obsolete and will be abandoned for now. Also, the next release of GuCu, which wraps the NCurses library, will be dramatically simplified, and incompatible with the current beta. Hopefully, the next release of GuCu will be a final beta before 1.0.
18 Jan 2009: An beta release of GuCu, a Guile wrapper of the NCurses library, has been posted to the file release area as gucu-0.3.tar.gz.
22 Dec 2007: An alpha release of GUICU, a Guile wrapper of the Internation Components for Unicode (icu4c), has been posted to the file release area as guicu-0.0.tar.gz.
