There are three options.
* Run a special console REPL that integrates with the main loop. See
glib/gnome/gobject/event-repl.scm and glib/gnome/glib.scm in the
guile-gnome-platform distribution.
* Run a special graphical REPL with a soft port that runs the main
loop. See gtk/examples/repl.scm in the guile-gnome-platform
distribution.
* Run the normal REPL in a separate thread. We don't make this very
easy, currently, but it is possible to do:
