Warning: Currently depends on vim-sexp for selecting forms.
This plugin allows you to evaluate Scheme from within your buffer. It delegates evaluation to an mit-scheme REPL started by a Neovim :terminal command.
Note: There's no reason why this can't work with normal Vim as far as I know, it just needs a little tweaking. Pull requests are more than welcome.
I wrote this tool to make working through SICP easier, I thought I'd put it out there for use by other Lisp enthusiasts that can't (or won't) leave their beloved modal environment of choice.
Since I'm a Clojure developer by day (and night), I named the commands and bindings after vim-fireplace.
Use your favourite plugin manager, mine is vim-plug.
Plug 'Olical/vim-scheme', { 'for': 'scheme', 'on': 'SchemeConnect' }
" You'll need vim-sexp too for selecting forms.
Plug 'guns/vim-sexp'
" And while you're here, tpope's bindings make vim-sexp a little nicer to use.
Plug 'tpope/vim-sexp-mappings-for-regular-people'The plugin defines the following things:
:SchemeConnectwhich starts a REPL in a terminal buffer.cp{motion...}evaluates the result of the motion, socpafis the current form your cursor is on.cppis a shorthand version ofcpaf, can come in pretty handy.
There's no other bindings but I define these in my own dotfiles, you may want them too. I didn't want to put them in by default since some people, understandably, hate that.
" Starts the REPL.
autocmd FileType scheme nnoremap <buffer> <localleader>rc :SchemeConnect<cr>
" Evaluates the outer most / top level form and jumps the cursor back to where it was.
autocmd FileType scheme nnoremap <buffer> <localleader>re :normal mscpaF<cr>`s
" Evaluates the entire file.
autocmd FileType scheme nnoremap <buffer> <localleader>rf :normal msggcpG<cr>`sI set my local leader to comma, so I would press ,re to evaluate my current outermost form. Note my usage of the s mark to jump back to the original location, if you rely on marks a lot that could trip you up.
You may set g:scheme_split_size to change the size of the terminal that's created when you connect.
let g:scheme_split_size = -10Find the full unlicense in the UNLICENSE file, but here's a snippet.
