Scripting REAPER with s7 scheme. Side effect: A REPL over Emacs

REAPER is already one of the (if not THE) most hacker-friendly DAW out there. So why not pair it with the most hacker-friendly text-editor/OS aka EMACS?

HEAVILY UNDER DEVELOPMENT

For example, just recently I made a switch from SDL to SFML for the windowing system (in s7-imgui repo - not in master branch). Things are changing and this is like an MVP for now. Help wanted (see below)! Some input and/or help could lead to something (more) stable soon.

Showcase

REPL (with emacs)

GUI (with dear imgui)

Features

  • writing simple actions scripts
  • writing gui scripts with s7 & dear imgui
  • REPL over a socket
    that can leverage emacs to remotely control reaper

Help wanted

The first step to make this happen was to create the basic skeleton to make C++ applications with s7 scheme and dear imgui. Here is the relevant repo.

In this repo I’m leveraging functionality from aforementioned repo. It would be great to at least discuss certain aspects of organization, libraries etc.

Apart from this repo, I’m working on a framework to create VST3 applications with s7 scheme.

As you can see this grows and some input (if not help!) would be much appreciated.
