Subject: Guile Elisp writer missing
Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2020 12:51:18 -0500
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
The writer in modules/language/elisp/spec.scm specifies Scheme's write as
the REPL writer, so that entering nil at the Elisp prompt prints out #nil,
which is meaningless to Elisp users.  Likewise, (print nil) does the same
thing.  A proper Elisp writer is needed.
