On the other hand, we could ask if these should not be part of the API.
The “(guix scrip <foo>)” seems a good clue. ;-)

From my point of view, your concern is not a real issue here.

Nice trick!

But using “guix repl” is just a way to avoid to the binding Scheme-Emacs
(or -Common) Lisp, for instance avoid Geiser.  IIUC.

Well, maybe invoking “guix repl” is the fastest way to write plumbing
interfaces avoiding the tough binding.


All the best,
