The procedural features of Guile are that of Scheme. Although Scheme
allows a functional style of programming, it doesn't require it. I
really should have said that Scheme has good support for procedural
programming.
In addition, Guile also has an advanced object system, modeled on
CLOS.
The site
http://www.schemers.org/
has material for learning more about Scheme.

`call-with-current-continuation', a nice, mind-boggling feature of
Scheme. It should also be explained at the schemers.org site.
If you have further questions about the use of Guile, please use the
