Maybe this is a documentation error. I tried the sequence in another scheme
implementation (racket)
and resulted in a similar output, implying separate functions are processed
one by one,
whose outputs intersperesed each time with command prompts.
So, you need to enclose multiple functions (commands) with "begin"
in a case like this, as follows:
guile> (begin
(display a)
(newline))
HTH, and happy schemeing!
