What's the best way to handle state in a scheme application? I'm trying with records but they are a little bit annoying because they can't have empty/optional fields...
Other option is to use a hash-map, but that's also a lot of pain.
Why is this thing so complex?

It's obvious that I need to read more scheme code, but that's a hard thing to do because there are not that many projects that worth reading. Many are too complex, others use a lot of high-level constructs that make them impossible for a newcomer.
This is pretty hard.

@w96k I don't know if introducing object orientation will help... I want to make it as functional as I can but I'm not sure if I'm the problem or it's scheme that is forcing me to do weird stuff.
It's like the language's philosophy is not clear.
This is much easier to do in clojure!

@w96k well goops doesn't look that bad in the end! but i don't want to read the whole documentation now :S

@ekaitz_zarraga goops? Or another oop implementation maybe. I haven't used scheme for a long time :(
