Latest update 5th Feb 2015 does not load using iOS 7.1.1!
It basically works, but... why are you allowed to use the Greek letter lambda for lambda functions in the REPL, but in code you enter in the editor you have to write out the word "lambda"? Why can you, in the REPL, accidentally delete the > prompt? Why is there endless documentation referring to Gambit on desktop, but not about the app itself? It's just more confusing and awkward than it needs to be. (The custom keys at the top of the keyboard are brilliant, though, once you get the hang of them: I wish they were available across iOS, I'd never have to flip through different pages of the keyboard again.)
Keeps crashing on iOS 7 in repl and giving weird results periodically. Editor on edit tab behave erratically with cursor seem to be positioned 1 character off its displayed position and text being inserted/deleted in wrong place. Workaround is to type in Notes and paste the whole text.
My only argument with this app is that there aren't quite enough extra keys made visible on the extended keyboard (numbers would be a handy thing to have). Other than that, this is a great way to play with one of the best Schemes out there. Every programmer should have this.
The developer has done a good job of getting a Scheme interpreter onto the iPhone and iPad. By the way, to get out of the REPL back to the 'scripts' area, type (edit) ...
Please fix the bug in the BlueTooth keyboard where it sees a double quote as some UTC code other than the double quote. It is not convenient to use the onscreen key to quote strings when using a keyboard. I have the Logitech Logi keyboard.
The custom keyboard that comes with this build of gambit-c is very useful, making most needed keys readily available. However, the file editor is rather awkward and basic, and the REPL is far more primitive than what comes with PC builds. If you want to try the Scheme language on your desktop or laptop, definitely try out Gambit; it is one of the most well known and mature implementations and has a great interactive REPL. This mobile version was disappointing.
This new release has fixed crashes on 64bit devices. It now works great on my iPad. Thank you.
Unfortunately the 7.0 update no longer runs in iOS 8. The app crashes immediately upon opening on both an iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2. Looking forward to seeing the new features-- hope an update is quickly forthcoming!
