The scwm.el mode that comes with scwm (http://scwm.mit.edu/) is actually
really nice for working with Guile in general. It'd be great if someone
wanted to make the changes to that mode to support talking to a
guile-server instead of only to a running Scwm process (they should be
pretty straightforward changes).
The mode features completion, apropros, function documentation lookup in
guile info pages or in Scwm's specially-formatted doc files, and lots
more.
