It’s fun to think we have a compiler from a subset of Bourne shell to

In guixSD, 'Globally-Visible Packages' packages installed accoding to

the thing is, if one is not from this community (or a similar one), one
will not know what "System Distribution" means. it is a very abstract term,
and can mean anything. it is not self explanatory, and while "Operating

Another idea that comes to mind: what about providing a “shell” language

convert it to (system* …), plus it would have a few built-in commands
like ‘cd’ and ‘ls’.
