Hello:
In 'The Perfect Setup', we suggest user to use the below emacs config:
```
;; Assuming the Guix checkout is in ~/src/guix.
(with-eval-after-load 'geiser-guile
(add-to-list 'geiser-guile-load-path "~/src/guix"))
```
This config need user to deal with %load-path of guix, which seem to be
a hard job for new guile user for many dirs of guix and other guix channels,
why not suggest new user to use the below config:
```
(setq geiser-guile-binary (list "guix" "repl"))
```
or:
```
(setq geiser-guile-binary (list "guix" "repl" "-L" "/path/to/user-own-config-dir"))
```
when user just want to develop his own guix config, just run:
```
emacs
```
guix and other channels installed by 'guix pull' will be used properly.
when user want to develop in guix.git, he just run emacs like the below:
```
./pre-inst-env emacs
```
The below is my guix emacs config, seem to work:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(require 'geiser)
(require 'geiser-guile)
(require 'guix)
(require 'magit)
;; ** My own guix config.
(defvar eh-geeguix-dir (expand-file-name "~/geeguix"))
;; ** Let geiser-guile use 'guix repl'
(setq geiser-guile-binary (list "guix" "repl" "-L" eh-geeguix-dir))
;; ** guix-devel-mode
(add-hook 'scheme-mode-hook #'guix-devel-mode)
;; ** Get guix dir installed by 'guix pull'.
(defun eh-guix-dir ()
(file-name-as-directory
(cl-find-if
(lambda (dir)
(file-exists-p (expand-file-name "guix.scm" dir)))
(directory-files
(expand-file-name "~/.cache/guix/checkouts/")
t))))
;; ** copyright-update
(when (eh-guix-dir)
(let* ((dir (eh-guix-dir))
(file (expand-file-name "etc/copyright.el" dir)))
(when (file-exists-p file)
(load-file file)
;; (add-hook 'after-save-hook 'copyright-update)
(setq copyright-names-regexp
(format "%s <%s>" user-full-name user-mail-address)))))
;; ** tempel
(when (eh-guix-dir)
(let* ((dir (eh-guix-dir))
(path (expand-file-name "etc/snippets/tempel/*" dir)))
(add-to-list 'tempel-path path)))

I would also add:
(add-hook! 'scheme-mode-hook #'display-fill-column-indicator-mode)
This creates a vertical line that reminds you that your code should fit
inside 80 columns.
Possible also mention how to set up page break lines:

Maybe we can add an example emacs config for develop guix in etc directory.

That's a good idea! I think there is/was a guix developer trying to write an
emacs configuration specifically to hack on guix...

The below is my current guix emacs config, I do not know whether it is
suitable for an example, maybe someone can try it :-)
If suitable, I will try to send a patch.

I would go ahead and send a patch to guix-patches. It might be a good idea to
review someone else' patch. Guix is in need of patch reviewers. :)
I should probably take my own advice and review someone else's patch too. :)

By the way, another good alternative to that Emacs package is:
https://depp.brause.cc/form-feed/
But I don't think that either of these packages should be
mentioned in The Perfect Setup. They don't relate to Guix
specifically.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing. Interesting to see other config.

Be careful, this can bite you. :-) Guile is run with --no-auto-compile
so the debugger is probably not working as expected. See [1,2].

Well, I do not know what you do with this but if you manually write in
this directory, then “guix pull” could be then broken.

I just read tempel templates and copyright.el from this directory.
maybe I should read them from another dir, but I do not know where,
in "~/.config/guix/current/share" seem can not find them.
