See this thread:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2016-05/msg00702.html
I want to add Texmaker (an editor for TeX). Putting it in texlive.scm
wouldn't really fit because it's not part of Texlive. So, the idea is
to put everything TeX-related into one file (tex.scm).
Kind regards,
Roel Janssen
