Hello Damien,
That is probably, because keywords themselves can look different in Kawa and
Racket.
https://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/Keywords.html (mentions both syntaxes, but
also mentions #:name being more portable)
https://docs.racket-lang.org/guide/keywords.html (only mentions #:name syn
i understand not all.
i suppose it makes sense .
in fact my problem was parsing a scheme program to generate another scheme
program.
So i'm in the realm of simple text and as i was just searching the good
display i did not understand more the problem.
and even between kawa and racket behavior diff

thank you very much Tomas,
it solved my problem:
(symbol->keyword (list->symbol

note: seems a bit weird anyway that guile react differently in this case
than Kawa and Racket

My understanding is that keywords are not the same as symbols, that is why you
get a different representation.

Hi,
why does
(string->symbol "#:hello")
$1 = #{#:hello}#
gives #{#:hello}# in guile instead of #:hello ?
like in Kawa or Racket
i understand it is special to guile as i can write:
scheme@(guile-user)> #:hello
$1 = #:hello
but then how can i generate a #:hello from a string or a list of char?
