NAME

       guile-gnome-0  -  starts  guile  and sets it up for loading guile-gnome
       modules

SYNOPSIS

       guile-gnome-0 [ guile options ]

DESCRIPTION

       The purpose of this script is twofold. First, it serves to  find  guile
       in  the  load  path  instead of statically “linking” to /usr/bin/guile.
       Second, it will set up the guile load path and the  library  path  such
       that  using  guile-gnome  modules  will  Just  Work.  This is necessary
       because we might choose to break  the  application  interfaces  in  the
       future, so we need to allow for parallel installs.

       Note  that  the  proper  way to make a script that will use this as the
       interpreter is as follows:

       #! /bin/sh
       exec guile-gnome-0 -s $0 "$@"
       !#

       This will allow the shell to find guile-gnome-0 in the path.

ENVIRONMENT

          GUILE_LOAD_PATH

          LD_LIBRARY_PATH
                 These are extended (or set, if unset or empty)  before  exec-
                 ing guile.
