1. SLIB Common: (import (slib common))
This library contains some core functions required throughout the SLIB
collection. Apart from (slib:version) users of SLIB probably do not need to
call these functions.
1.1. add-base-table-implementation
Internal support for database library: adds a supported base implementation to the list of such implementations.
1.2. base-table-implementations
Internal support for database library: contains a list of supported base implementations.
1.3. call-with-open-ports
1.4. char-code-limit
A constant 256: One greater than the largest integer which can be returned by
char→integer
1.5. gentemp
Returns a new symbol.
1.6. identity
A single-parameter identity function.
1.7. make-exchanger
Provides mutually exclusive access to its resource: when called, it returns its current content replacing it with its argument.
1.8. most-positive-fixnum
Constant #xFFFFFFFF
1.9. open-file
A general method to open a port to read or write.
1.10. output-port-height
A constant 24: default display height (used e.g. in char-plot)
1.11. output-port-width
A constant 79: default display width (used e.g. in char-plot)
1.12. provided?
Checks if features, such as big integers, are supported by the current implementation.
1.13. slib:version
Returns the current version SLIB.
1.14. slib:warn
Displays a warning to the current-error-port before proceeding.
1.15. software-type
Returns a symbol indicating the generic operating system type: the choice of possible return types has been reduced for R7RS to 'windows, 'posix or 'unix.
1.16. system
Calls the operating system.
1.17. tmpnam
