[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Dear Guile team , displaying the Scheme symbols "{" and "}" seems erroneous
to me , see log below . Many thanks ! Mirko


scheme@(guile-user)> (version)
$1 = "3.0.9"
scheme@(guile-user)> (symbol? '{)
$2 = #t
scheme@(guile-user)> (display '{) ; wrong
#{\x7b;}#scheme@(guile-user)> (char? #\{)
$3 = #t
scheme@(guile-user)> (display #\{) ; OK
{scheme@(guile-user)> (write '{) ; OK
#{\x7b;}#scheme@(guile-user)> (write #\{) ; OK
#\{scheme@(guile-user)>
