Hello,
I've been using Chez/Petite Scheme's system command as a sort of Scheme
interface to Netpbm and other executables. Any information -- more than
what is in the documentation -- on a Guile equivalent?
Thanks

Guile has a `system' procedure as well.
Note that its behavior does not seem to be one-to-one equivalent to that
of Chez; you can refer to its documentation for details.

The POSIX Processes section. There are system and system*, and POSIX
fork-and-exec primitives for the adventurous.
A string search on system* in the one-page html version of the manual
(my favorite version) should find it most easily.
