Just so this won't be a yet-another-penis-comparision posting, it
appears to me that Guile isn't all that suitable for interactive use.
Is there any reason it doesn't do readline?   I tried to dynamic-link it 
and use it from within Guile, but I couldn't work out how to do anything 
sensible with the return value (I only got the NEWS file as
documentation:-) 

Would it be useful to extend Guile with (what I think is called) a
listener?  Or has it been done already?
