  • Final SRFI 175: ASCII character library

    From Arthur A. Gleckler@21:1/5 to All on Fri Dec 20 08:28:10 2019
    Scheme Request for Implementation 175,
    "ASCII character library,"
    by Lassi Kortela,
    has gone into "final" status.

    The document and an archive of the discussion are available at <https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-175/>.

    Here's the abstract:

    This SRFI defines ASCII-only equivalents to many of the character
    procedures in standard Scheme plus a few extra ones. Recent Scheme
    standards are based around Unicode but the significant syntactic
    elements in many file formats and network protocols are all
    ASCII. Such low-level code can run faster and its behavior can be
    easier to understand when it uses ASCII primitives.

    Here are the diffs since the most recent draft:

    Many thanks to Lassi and to everyone who contributed to the discussion
    of this SRFI.

    Regards,


    SRFI Editor
