I can do it, if nobody shims in... When I am finished with the tutorial.

Any comment is welcome.

First I tried to follow hylang tutorial [0], but I found it too short. I 
really like clojure koans [1], but there is not guilescript. I did not 
do much research, in particular there might be interesting stuff to use 
in "how to design programs" [2].

So I settled on 4 parts tutorial split into sections, but not deeper, 
where the first paragraph introduce a concept and the second paragraph 
apply the concept in the general context of guilers doing a hackfest. I 
did not talk about macros, I will think about a way to spread the 
different macros in all the parts.

Here is the plan:

# Learn Scheme Guile

## Getting started [3]

The main illustration is a breakfast box.

- call procedure
- define a variable
- how to create list
- how to create pairs
- how to create scheme dictionary aka. assoc
- how to define a procedure
- how to to create new list with initial list and a procedure using map

## Foward [4]

This continue with breakfast box and explain records with a mini todo 
list app.

- how to define a more complex procedure
- how to define variable inside procedures
- a short hand to make recursive procedures ie. named `let`
- how to define mutable datastructures ie. records

## Beyond [not written yet]

I don't know yet which example to use.

- goops
- values/receive
- apply
- compose

## Reference

A summary of all the syntax and procedure of the tutorial. This should 
be similar to hylang tutorial.
