Hello,

HiPhish <hiph...@posteo.de> skribis:

>From the REPL you can use the “apropos” command:

  scheme@(guile-user)> ,apropos mkdir
  (guile): mkdir        #<procedure mkdir (_ #:optional _)>
  (guix build utils): mkdir-p   #<procedure mkdir-p (dir)>

But for Guix, you can always run “./pre-inst-env guile” to open a REPL
in the context of Guix (or run “guix repl”), and there you can “get into
a module” like this:

  ,m (gnu packages base)

HTH!
