I press c-x c-e because I know this is just a distribution of Emacs and that works In DrRacket there's the "run" button In Guile Studio I can't find it Is the intended user of guile studio supposed to know about c-x c-e ?

No.
There is a context menu. The splash screen on the right mentions
it.

Ok
Thanks for clarifying

Gladly.
There used to be a button in the toolbar, but I removed it for two
reasons:
+ it isn’t always applicable; I had it hooked to the Geiser mode,
so it would jarringly disappear when a different buffer was
selected.
+ the toolbar is really quite big and we already have a tab bar
and a menu bar
I found the context menu to be a good compromise, but you are the
second person to report confusion about it, so I’m willing to
reconsider this.
Would you prefer a button in the toolbar that will always send the
code from the main buffer to the REPL?

Personally, I would prefer a toolbar with a button in it, yes The simple reason is that this solution would be similar to what DrRacket has and has had for a long time So guile studio could play the simililarity card What would be really required, here, is a consideration of which population guile studio is meant for and then an investigation with such population But I understand that that's not within reach Some years ago I was enabled to work on a little project in Clojure thanks to a thing called "Emacs Live" It's here http://overtone.github.io/emacs-live/ it's a .emacs.d folder that you replace your one with and it gives you a complete environement, based on Emacs, to work with Clojure With REPL, autocompletion and all the features of a modern IDE (we should discuss what "modern" mean because the Smalltalk IDE was way more modern than many IDEs for java these days) So this idea of a distribution of Emacs taylored to introduce people to Guile is a good idea Kudos
