;;; Commentary:
;;;
;;; This module implements the "machine-readable" REPL provided by
;;; 'guix repl -t machine'. It's a lightweight module meant to be
;;; embedded in any Guile process providing REPL functionality.

The protocol of this REPL is meant to be machine-readable and provides proper

Guile's REPL prompt."
