[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Dear Guile Hackers,

It would be great if guile could execute code passed via pipe from stdin
when it got the flag -.


Currently I can emulate this on Linux via

    echo "(display 1)(newline)" | guile -s /dev/stdin


But that is not cross-platform. What I had expected to work is

    echo "(display 1)(newline)" | guile -


I know the flag - (a bare hyphen) as the conventional way to do this, so
that’s what I propose for guile, too.

Best wishes,
Arne
