Do you mean Guile Studio?[1] It was really only intended to be a pre-configured editor for new Guilers, which is why it includes the picture language and Geiser with picture display. But as I wrote there There are many more things that can be done to make Emacs less confusing for people who use it just as a Guile IDE. I would be happy to hear your suggestions or apply patches to improve Guile Studio! This is still true today. [1]: https://elephly.net/guile-studio/ -- Ricardo
