> Guile runs elisp just fine
While this may be the case, my understanding was that once the codebases were combined and guile-emacs builds were brought online, they encountered a severe performance drop from vanilla Emacs due to back-and-forth string conversion between Guile's Unicode strings and the Emacs internal enhanced string type. I thought that the project was abandoned after finding no obvious resolution to the problem short of a complete rewrite of all Emacs string handling.
- bjoli 7y agoThat was only a problem for scheme interop, since guile's elisp uses emacs extended UTF8 strings.
