* Description
This layer adds support for Scheme via [[http://geiser.nongnu.org][Geiser]]. Note that combined usage of racket-mode and geiser has not been tested.

** Features:
- Support the Scheme compiler [[https://www.call-cc.org/][Chicken]]
- Support for the extension language platform [[https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/][Guile]]
- Structuraly safe editing using optional [[https://github.com/luxbock/evil-cleverparens][evil-cleverparens]]

* Install
To use this configuration layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to
add =scheme= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this
file.

For full Chicken support, the following commands should be run:

#+BEGIN_SRC shell
  $ chicken-install -s apropos chicken-doc
  $ cd `csi -p '(chicken-home)'`
  $ curl https://3e8.org/pub/chicken-doc/chicken-doc-repo.tgz | sudo tar zx
#+END_SRC

* Structuraly safe editing
This layer adds support for =evil-cleverparens= which allows to safely edit
lisp code by keeping the s-expressions balanced.

By default this mode is not activated. You can turn it on locally on the active
buffer with ~SPC m T s~ (=s= for safe).

To turn it on automatically for all =scheme= buffers call the following
function in your =dotspacemacs/user-config= function:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (spacemacs/toggle-evil-safe-lisp-structural-editing-on-register-hook-scheme-mode)
#+END_SRC

or to enable it for all supported modes:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (spacemacs/toggle-evil-safe-lisp-structural-editing-on-register-hooks)
#+END_SRC

When enabled the symbol =🆂= should be displayed in the mode-line.
