And yes, it does run most things! (Some stuff is slow, though I believe it's mostly dynamic scoping related and is being worked on :)) Here's a screenshot of me using orgmode and modifying my orgmode emacs-lisp files: http://dustycloud.org/tmp/guile-emacs-20150513.png More info: - More on guile-emacs: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GuileEmacs - Guix's website: https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/ - Want to run / hack on Guix in your existing distro without doing a "make install" of it? I wrote up a guide: http://dustycloud.org/blog/guix-package-manager-without-make-install/ Good luck / have fun! - Chris
