Subject: help does not display any output if readline is activated (V1.9.13)
Date: Mon, 18 Oct 2010 18:04:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CBC7E17.4040002@hulin.org.uk> (raw)

I've just installed guile 1,9.13 on my test machine,

(use-modules (ice-9 readline)) (activate-readline)

works as expected, but it suppresses any output from ¸help and suchlike.

scheme@(guile-user)> ,help compile
Compile Commands [abbrev]:

 ,compile EXP                 [,c] - Generate compiled code.

 ,disassemble EXP             [,x] - Disassemble a compiled procedure.

scheme@(guile-user)> ,help compile

guile hangs until you abort the command with ^C or similar.
