<p>To make the Guile integration useful, you have to design some kind of
hook into your application that application users can use to cause their
Scheme code to be evaluated.
</p>
<p>Technically, this is straightforward; you just have to decide on a
mechanism that is appropriate for your application. Think of Emacs, for
example: when you type <kbd class="kbd"><kbd class="key">ESC</kbd> :</kbd>, you get a prompt where you can
type in any Elisp code, which Emacs will then evaluate. Or, again like
Emacs, you could provide a mechanism (such as an init file) to allow
Scheme code to be associated with a particular key sequence, and
evaluate the code when that key sequence is entered.
</p>
<p>In either case, once you have the Scheme code that you want to evaluate,
as a null terminated string, you can tell Guile to evaluate it by
calling the <code class="code">scm_c_eval_string</code> function.
