(guile gtk)

(cons 'guile 'gtk)

Guile-Gtk brings the power of Scheme to your graphical application. Create windows and dialogs, interact with the user, even draw directly with Gdk primitives, all from Scheme code.

Guile-Gtk wraps Gtk 2.0 and up (or Guile-Gtk version 0.60 was the last to support Gtk 1.2).

The present status is "works very nicely so far as it goes", but not getting actively worked. For new applications or new work it's strongly recommended you use Guile-Gnome instead. Guile-Gnome has surpassed Guile-Gtk by a big margin, with a much fuller set of bindings for Gtk, Gnome, and related projects, and a much more flexible way to keep up with new things in Gtk and to wrap other libraries.
