Guile Reference Manual

33.3 Runtime Options

Guile's runtime behaviour can be modified by setting options. For example, is the language that Guile accepts case sensitive, or should the debugger automatically show a backtrace on error?

Guile has two levels of interface for managing options: a low-level control interface, and a user-level interface which allows the enabling or disabling of options.

Moreover, the options are classified in groups according to whether they configure reading, printing, debugging or evaluating.
