This is *great*! I look forward to having more documentation in Guile
(not that reading the sources hasn't been hugely educational). Thanks
for all the work you put into this!
I had to make a one-line fix to guile-doc-snarf.awk to get it to work
on my system:
--- guile-doc-snarf.awk~ Mon Dec 13 11:19:09 1999

if (numargs != numactuals && !registering)
{ print location ":*** `" copy "' is improperly registered as having " numactuals " arguments"; }
print " \n" copy (registering?")":"") > dot_doc_file ; }
This enables it to work with mawk 1.3.3; I installed the latest gawk
and it works with or without the escaped ).
