Hi Andy,
I (clearly) don't think it is silly, but I don't think that the guile
developers should think it is silly either, as one of guile's original
goals was to be able to emulate other languages. Bash is a quite common
and useful language, so why shouldn't we try to emulate it? My idea
would perhaps put us one step closer to being able to emulate a whole
class of languages which have the capability of running executables like
bash does (tcsh, bash, tcl ...).
Thanks for the pointer. Do you know of any documentation on module
binder procs? I've looked in the manual and, (as usual) it doesn't
really say much of anything about them.
Regards,
Jon
