When I mentioned the "manifest" file, I wasn't aware it was common to refer to this file as `guix.scm`, but yes, this is definitely the first part. However, to clarify, my question is regarding the second part: how to get the `guix.scm` and any environment variables loaded as part of `guix environment -l guix.scm` or `guix environment -m project_manifest.scm`-- search paths and similar -- integrated into the buffers local to the project directory? I believe `.dir-locals.el` or similar might actually be the right approach here, but I'm still in the early stages of exploring this. I hope that clarifies my question better. For more reference, I'm also thinking of wingo's blog on developing v8 with guix[1] (though I believe `guix environment` wasn't yet available). Again, if this is the wrong list, I can move this question to emacs-help instead. -Kenny [1]: https://wingolog.org/archives/2015/08/04/developing-v8-with-guix
