There are cmuscheme, slime, geiser, quack and maybe some others, I'm not sure which to select. If it does not require much Scheme code, maybe cmuscheme is enough.

I guess Geiser [1,2] is the most popular among guilers.

Guix is written in Guile, and Geiser is really the perfect thing for Guile (see HACKING). Roughly it provides features comparable to what Emacs provides for Emacs Lisp, plus a REPL, autodoc, jump-to-definition, and more. Ludo’. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
