— C Procedure: SCM scm_current_module ()

Return the module that is the current module.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_set_current_module (SCM module)

Set the current module to module and return the previous current module.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_call_with_current_module (SCM module, SCM (*func)(void *), void *data)

Call func and make module the current module during the call. The argument data is passed to func. The return value of scm_c_call_with_current_module is the return value of func.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_lookup (const char *name)

Return the variable bound to the symbol indicated by name in the current module. If there is no such binding or the symbol is not bound to a variable, signal an error.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_lookup (SCM name)

Like scm_c_lookup, but the symbol is specified directly.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_module_lookup (SCM module, const char *name)
— C Procedure: SCM scm_module_lookup (SCM module, SCM name)

Like scm_c_lookup and scm_lookup, but the specified module is used instead of the current one.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_define (const char *name, SCM val)

Bind the symbol indicated by name to a variable in the current module and set that variable to val. When name is already bound to a variable, use that. Else create a new variable.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_define (SCM name, SCM val)

Like scm_c_define, but the symbol is specified directly.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_module_define (SCM module, const char *name, SCM val)
— C Procedure: SCM scm_module_define (SCM module, SCM name, SCM val)

Like scm_c_define and scm_define, but the specified module is used instead of the current one.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_module_reverse_lookup (SCM module, SCM variable)

Find the symbol that is bound to variable in module. When no such binding is found, return #f.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_define_module (const char *name, void (*init)(void *), void *data)

Define a new module named name and make it current while init is called, passing it data. Return the module.

The parameter name is a string with the symbols that make up the module name, separated by spaces. For example, `"foo bar"' names the module `(foo bar)'.

When there already exists a module named name, it is used unchanged, otherwise, an empty module is created.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_resolve_module (const char *name)

Find the module name name and return it. When it has not already been defined, try to auto-load it. When it can't be found that way either, create an empty module. The name is interpreted as for scm_c_define_module.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_resolve_module (SCM name)

Like scm_c_resolve_module, but the name is given as a real list of symbols.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_use_module (const char *name)

Add the module named name to the uses list of the current module, as with (use-modules name). The name is interpreted as for scm_c_define_module.

— C Procedure: SCM scm_c_export (const char *name, ...)

Add the bindings designated by name, ... to the public interface of the current module. The list of names is terminated by NULL.
