6.14.10 R6RS I/O Ports

The I/O port API of the Revised Report^6 on the Algorithmic Language Scheme (R6RS) is provided by the (rnrs io ports) module. It provides features, such as binary I/O and Unicode string I/O, that complement or refine Guile's historical port API presented above (see Input and Output).

Note: The implementation of this R6RS API is currently far from complete, notably due to the lack of support for Unicode I/O and strings.

• R6RS End-of-File: The end-of-file object.
• R6RS Port Manipulation: Manipulating R6RS ports.
• R6RS Binary Input: Binary input.
• R6RS Binary Output: Binary output.
