Zile in its traditional shipped form is indeed meant to be tiny and portable, but since it's been (ab)used for various experimental purposes (for example, the Lua version, which is currently still experimental), I'd be very happy to have a Guile integration branch too. I've found Zile a good platform for experimentation precisely because it's small and simple, but nonetheless a full-fledged editor. -- http://rrt.sc3d.org
