MU SCM
NAME
mu scm - bindings and shell for the GNU Guile programming language.
SYNOPSIS
mu scm [_COMMON-OPTIONS_]
starts the GNU Guile shell.
mu scm [_COMMON-OPTIONS_] _COMMAND_] -- [_COMMAND-OPTIONS_
runs a GNU Guile script.
DESCRIPTION
mu scm is the command to use the bindings to the GNU Guile programming language. It can either open a shell ("REPL") or run scripts.
Using mu scm, you can script mu.
SCM OPTIONS
–listen
With the --listen parameter, mu scm starts listening on a UNIX domain socket.
This can be used for communicating with the REPL using some external tool, such
as Emacs with the "Geiser" package. For details, refer to the mu-scm Info
manual.
It blocks after printing the name of the socket (which is a randomized name), prefixed by UNIX_CONNECT: and ending with a newline. For instance:
UNIX-CONNECT:/run/user/1000/mu-scm-socket-4eb5db40
ENVIRONMENT
By default, mu scm expects its internal files to be found in
<prefix>/hare/mu/scm. However, for development/testing you can set the
environment variable MU_SCM_DIR to some alternative directory.

The full documentation for mu scm is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If the info and mu programs are properly installed at your site, the command info mu-scm should give you access to the complete manual.
