Hi, I have been subscribed to this list, with some techical
lapses, since about the middle of 1998, that probably makes
me old-time, but I never use Guile, and I have no copy of GUSH.

I was about to advise you to port SCSH to Guile and say it
is GUSH.  To that end I checked the Scsh FAQ for licence and
copyright issues, and found there this text:

The Scsh FAQ came up about third from the top in a Google
search for "scsg scheme shell".

Of course, that should be a search for "scsh scheme shell".

Actually, one of the reasons why I was interested in GUSH initially is
that it's the first answer one gets when searching the web for "guile
argp", i.e., GUSH apparently contained an implementation in Scheme of
GNU `argp' [0].  So I'm afraid SCSH won't help for this specific
purpose.  :-)

Thanks,
Ludovic.
