# xturtle

xturtle is a [turtle graphics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle_graphics)

program for Linux/X11 that is controlled by

[Scheme](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheme_(programming_language)), a

dialect of the Lisp family of programming languages.

**Warning**: xturtle was written for my own personal education in bare-bones

Linux application development and as such should not be used for anything

serious. That being said, it may serve as a useful example of wiring up XCB and

Cairo.

## Building

To build xturtle, the [Meson](https://mesonbuild.com/) build system must be

installed, as well as the following dependencies:

- xcb;

- xcb-util;

- xcb-util-wm;

- xcb-util-keysyms;

- cairo;

- guile-2.2;

- spdlog (optional, will be built from source if not available);

- CLI11 (optional, will be built from source if not available).

If the above are available, run the following to build xturtle:

```sh

$ meson build

$ ninja -C build

```
