 ===== Install Eggs =====
-The Chicken community produces third-party libraries called eggs. (If you're familiar with the Ruby programming language, eggs are like Ruby's gems.) As an example, let's install the [[http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/4/readline|readline]] egg. This will allow you to use in the Chicken interpreter the same editing and history commands you use in your shell. For example, hitting the Up key will enter your previous command.

-Ideally, you could just run chicken-install readline and the egg would be installed. But if you do that, you'll get an error. Since you don't have administrator privileges on SDF, you can't install eggs to the default location (a system directory). You must install the eggs in your home directory, which requires you to do a little configuration beforehand. I'll show you how to do that.

 I'll assume you're running Bash as your shell and that you want to keep Chicken-related files in ~/chicken. First create a directory for a Chicken repository:
