# SSHD server in Scheme

This is a SSH server supporting chat and various other functionalities, written in [CHICKEN Scheme](https://www.call-cc.org/).

This code is inspired by the [Why aren't we using SSH for everything?](https://medium.com/@shazow/ssh-how-does-it-even-9e43586e4ffc) post.

I also wanted to explore the LISP <-> C integration, inspired by the [Schemings](https://github.com/Mathieu-Desrochers/Schemings) source code.

## Design goals

The main assumption is to make this server extendable via plugins. The first plugin, chat, is in development.

## Development

Use the [Nix package manager](https://nixos.org/nix/):

``` bash
nix-build
```

If you require more CHICKEN eggs, add them to `eggs.nix` and `default.nix` and
run

``` bash
egg2nix eggs.csm > eggs.nix
```

To build just use `make`.
