What is eguile?
eguile is a way of processing a template file to create a guile script.
More specifically, within GnuCash, guile is used to combine HTML and guile code to create a report, such as an invoice or balance sheet.
The GnuCash version of eguile is eguile-gnc.scm, written in early 2009 by Chris Dennis, and based on Neale Pickett's eguile.scm.
For example,
<h3><?scm:d coyname ?></h3>
<h2><?scm:d reportname ?> as at <?scm:d (gnc-print-date opt-date-tp) ?></h2>
could be become
(display "<h3>")(display "Acme Tools Ltd.")(display "</h3>
<h2>)(display "Balance Sheet")(display " as at ")
(display "05/04/2009")(display "<h2">)
which is then evaluated as guile code to create the text of the report.
