The Guile manual [1] mentions the existance of a repl command called `show'. When I tried this, I get the following message. scheme@(guile-user)> ,show Show Commands: While executing meta-command: ERROR: In procedure car: ERROR: Wrong type argument in position 1 (expecting pair): #f scheme@(guile-user)> ,show w While executing meta-command: ERROR: In procedure car: ERROR: Wrong type argument in position 1 (expecting pair): #f The description of `show' says: "With one argument, tries to show a particular piece of information; currently supported topics are `warranty' (or `w'), `copying' (or `c'), and `version' (or `v'). Without any argument, a list of topics is displayed." That seem to be inconsistant with what is displayed in response to the command. I thought I will report it here. May be I am missing something.
