I'm new to guile and scheme. I compiled 2.2.4 from source yesterday. I wish to silence the auto-compile chatter, other than real warnings and errors while testing my programs. There seems to be no way to do it, so I looked for a way to disable auto-compile in ~/.guile configuration file. No luck so far, but the variables %load-should-autocompile and GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE seem promising. Sadly, they don't seem to prevent auto-compile when set within ~/.guile.
Below is an excerpt of my shell session to demonstrate. In case it may be poorly formatted, I could make a web paste for easy viewing. $ rm -R $XDG_CACHE_HOME/guile/ccache rm: cannot remove '/home/me/.cache/guile/ccache': No such file or directory $ rm ~/.guile rm: cannot remove '/home/me/.guile': No such file or directory $ $ printf %s\\n '(display "Hello world!")'
