Hello Ludo!

When I pull, I can’t use guix shell, perhaps because you did not add
it to guix/self.scm?

I like that the new documentation does not target only developers and
hackers.

Hmmph.  I had seen the words “isolated environment” being used to
describe containers in "(guix)Managing Software the Guix Way".

Therefore I also had used the German term for “isolated” to explain
containers in other parts of the manual.  Probably this was not
necessary; if you apply guix shell with this term, I will change all
occurrences of “isoliert” in the German PO files.

But then again, maybe it would be better if you described pure
environments not as isolated.  I also see a mix-up further below:

Back to typos:

> +@section Invoking @command{guix environment}
> +

is to *assist*

So much for the docs.  I have not looked further.

Regards,
Florian
