I wrote guile-interface.el, which I still use most of the time. It
doesn't have half of the nice features of ilisp, though. It pretty
much just makes sure that when you evaluate some code, it goes into
the right module. I don't even like the way that I accomplished this
feat; if I had the chance to recode this, I would use a buffer local
variable, a la ilisp.
Since I wrote this code, I started using ilisp for CL, and I was very
impressed, so I think the way forward is to use ilisp. guile is
supported apparently. The only problem that I've had with ilisp is
that it steals some keybindings that I use, other than that it's
fantastic.
