I've built and packaged the following software, which taken together allows you to write graphical applications for the Nokia 770 in Guile Scheme.
guile_1.6.8-6_arm.deb
The core Guile libraries and interpreter.
slib_3a1-4.6_all
Aubrey Jaffer's SLIB Scheme library.
g-wrap_1.9.6-2_arm.deb
The g-wrap interface generator. (This package includes libraries that are needed at runtime by any interfaces that are built by g-wrap, such as the following (guile-gnome), so it must be installed even if you don't plan on using it to generate any new interfaces.)
guile-gnome-dev_20060319+gnu.org-5_arm.deb
Scheme bindings for the GObject, Glib, Gtk+, Pango, Atk and Hildon libraries.
The two key changes since my original announcement in this thread are that
the guile-gnome package now includes bindings for the Hildon widget set, so you can write properly native Nokia 770 applications in Guile Scheme
I have been using these packages myself now for a few months, to prototype some apps, so I am confident that they are useful and basically work.
For an example application, please see
count.scm
. The precise subject matter of this app is unlikely to be of general interest, but the code shows how to get going with a HildonApp and HildonAppView, and how to set up and lay out some commonly used widgets.
