Subject: intern a top level variable
Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2023 08:41:18 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOcxjM4zekOeYmW6+oRxUET61dh0TBVJ4H4sc7cQt_OrrtVprA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,
How do I intern a top level variable? looks like intern-symbol is
deprecated? Is there a substitute? gensym does not seem to be it:

scheme@(guile-user)> (gensym "abc")
$11 = abc2652
scheme@(guile-user)> abc2652
;;; <unknown-location>: warning: possibly unbound variable `abc2652'
ERROR: In procedure module-lookup: Unbound variable: abc2652

Thanks
Mortimer
