address@hidden: New paper on Emacs Lisp]

[Richard Stallman]

This paper might be very useful for making Emacs use Guile.
I have not seen the paper itself.

Subject: New paper on Emacs Lisp

In case you haven't seen it already, you might be interested in this
report of work on automated translation of Emacs Lisp to Scheme
(guile):

@Article{Neubauer:2001:ELD,
  author =       "Matthias Neubauer and Michael Sperber",
  title =        "Down with {Emacs Lisp}: Dynamic Scope Analysis",
  journal =      j-SIGPLAN,
  volume =       "36",
  number =       "10",
  pages =        "38--49",
  month =        oct,
  year =         "2001",
  bibdate =      "Fri Nov 23 18:54:42 2001",
  bibsource =    "http://cristal.inria.fr/ICFP2001/program.html";,
  URL =          "http://cristal.inria.fr/ICFP2001/Abstracts/50.html";,
  acknowledgement = ack-nhfb,
  annote =       "International Conference on Functional Programming
                 (ICFP01), Firenze, Italy, 3--5 September 2001.",
}

Those proceedings are not yet in the ACM Portal database, and the
conference Web site at the indicated URLs does not have full text of
articles, so for the moment, only the printed version is available.
My copy arrived earlier this week.
