Hello MC,

I assumed ~/.guile would be evaluated before any script. Perhaps I am mistaken. > Try exporting the GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE variable before running your > program, or setting it inline in front of your guile command: Yes, that does work. Now every time I want to disable autocompile I must: GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=0 guile ~/scheme/hello.scm If there is a hello.go under $XDG_CACHE_HOME/guile then it will be used anyway unless it is considered out of date. I would very much prefer to: eliminate the unnecessary chatter when no warnings or errors occur OR disable the auto-compile feature in ~/.guile. If these aren't possible, then I suppose I can make a shell alias or function for: GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=0 guile > Where have you seen that %load-should-autocompile variable documented? > It doesn't appear in the Guile Reference info manual. > > This doesn't seem to be a bug :) %load-should-autocompile was mentioned in IRC by the person who asked me to report this as a bug. It's also present in some commit messages I found by a general web search. Thanks.
