+
+ * guile.texi (Top): A little top-level reshuffling, with the aims

+ interfaces; (2) non-API-reference material such as the `Basic
+ Ideas in Scheme' chapter is collected together to form a new part
+ `Programming with Guile'. This new part will contain general
+ documentation on using and programming Guile in both Scheme and C,
+ including - for example - awareness of GC when C programming, how
+ to use the snarf macros, how to debug ...

+ appear together in the printed manual.
