Hi All,

Guix repl exists, but is there any way to get a list of functions/names and
meta information thats been defined that can help a person understand what
functions there are and some actual context and usage info?

Thanks,
Hafeez

Well, Guile provides the command ,describe and ,apropos (type ,help to
see more :-)).  However, it does not fit for discoverability.  Maybe,
the best is via the manual and the programming index part [1].
