   3 The documentation consists of the following manuals.
   4
   5 - The Guile Tutorial (guile-tut.texi) contains a tutorial introduction
   6   to using Guile.
   7
   8 - The Guile Reference Manual (guile.texi) contains (or is intended to
   9   contain) reference documentation on all aspects of Guile.
  10
  11 - The Revised^5 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme (r5rs.texi).
  12
  13 Please be aware that this is all very much work in progress (apart
  14 from the Revised^5 Report).  Bug reports and contributions are
  15 welcome!

  17 The `sources' directory includes some stuff relevant to the Guile
  18 reference manual, and which may eventually be folded in to it.  It's
  19 not immediately relevant, however, which is why it's not in this
  20 directory.

  22 The Revised^4 Report (r4rs.texi) is no longer in this distribution, as
  23 it is completely superseded by the Revised^5 Report.  If you need to
  24 consult R4RS, it is still widely available, for example at
  25 http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/projects/info/SchemeDocs/r4rs/.
