Does this take care of proper quoting the string-values?

What string values do you refer to?  We first generate an S-expression
(where we don’t need to take care of escaping things anyway) and then
format it as a string (with “format” and the “~s” format string), and
then we print that S-expression-as-a-string into a file.

I mean the values of the environment variables to be set, whcih might contain double-quotes or backslashes.

But I understand that these values are calculated within guile anyway and ~s takes care of proper quoting. So this is fine. Thanks for elaborating.
