See the [Configuration](#configuration) section below for more information.\n- Implements a cell magic command `%%show_expression` to render the output of a cell into LaTeX, in the same way as the `show-expression` function in the `Smcutils`. See the [mechanics notebook](./examples/mechanics.ipynb) for an example.\n- Plus all the features provided by [metakernel](https://github.com/Calysto/metakernel).\n\n## Installation\n\n### Pre-requisites\n\nIt requires [MIT/GNU Scheme](https://www.gnu.org/software/mit-scheme/) to be installed (it expects the `mit-scheme` executable to be on the `PATH`).\n\nDepending on the [configuration](#configuration), [Scmutils](https://github.com/slavad/scmutils) may be required. See the [installation instructions](https://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/users/gjs/6946/installation.html).\n\n\n### Installation\n\n```bash\npip install mit-scheme-kernel\n```\n\n\n### Post-installation\n\nRun one of the following commands provided by [metakernel](https://github.com/Calysto/metakernel):\n\n```bash\n# Install the kernel for the current Python environment\npython -m mit_scheme_kernel install --sys-prefix\n\n# Install the kernel for the current user\npython -m mit_scheme_kernel install --user\n\n# Global installation, might require root privileges\npython -m mit_scheme_kernel install\n\n# To find additional installation options, run:\npython -m mit_scheme_kernel install --help\n```\n\n## Configuration\n\nThere are a few configuration options available to customize the kernel's behavior. See the [default configuration file](./src/mit_scheme_kernel/config.yaml) for a description of these options.\n\nTo override the default configuration, create a YAML file containing the options you want to change and set the `MIT_SCHEME_KERNEL_CONFIG` environment variable to the file's absolute path.\n\nFor example, to change the `mit-scheme` executable to `mechanics` (the executable created when installing the [Scmutils library](https://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/users/gjs/6946/installation.html)):\n\n```bash\ncat \u003e /tmp/my_config.yaml \u003c\u003c EOF\nexecutable: mechanics\nfilter_output: true\noutput_value_regex: ^\\#\\|\\s*(.+)\\s*\\|\\#$\nEOF\n\nexport MIT_SCHEME_KERNEL_CONFIG=/tmp/my_config.yaml\n# start Jupyter Notebook\n```\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are more than welcome! If you have any suggestions, ideas, or improvements, please feel free to open an issue or a pull request. If you have any questions or would like to start a discussion, please feel free to reach out.\n\nTake a look at the [contributing guidelines](./CONTRIBUTING.md) for more information.\n\n## Credits\n\n- This kernel is built on top of [Calysto/Metakernel](https://github.com/Calysto/metakernel).\n- This kernel relies on [MIT/GNU Scheme](https://www.gnu.org/software/mit-scheme/) as its Scheme implementation and was originally [inspired](https://twaclaw.github.io/posts/projects/mit_scheme/) by the excellent book [The Structure and Interpretation of Classical Mechanics](https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262028967/structure-and-interpretation-of-classical-mechanics/) (MIT Press, 2015, second edition) by Gerald Jay Sussman and Jack Wisdom.\n- This kernel uses the impressive functionality provided by the [Jupyter Project](https://jupyter.org/).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftwaclaw%2Fmit-scheme-kernel","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftwaclaw%2Fmit-scheme-kernel","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftwaclaw%2Fmit-scheme-kernel/lists"}
