1 | Needed before release |

| 3 | * Add facilities for debugging Scheme programs. | |

5 | Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se> is working on this. The low-level |
| 6 | functions are available, but need a user interface. He has also | |
| 7 | written extensisons to GDB to allow it to print lispy values in lispy | |
| 8 | notation when debugging Guile's C code. | |

10 | * Merge in the Cygnus threads package. |

12 | This is done, but needs debugging. |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | * Documentation. | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | They should be complete and accurate. They should also have more | |
| 17 | general explanation (right now they're strictly reference), but | |
| 18 | perhaps that will have to wait until after the first release. | |

23 | * Good interface to Tk |
| 24 | ||
| a35cabe8 JB |
25 | * Add a convenient facility for running a pipeline of processes |
| 26 | with redirections. Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz> | |
| 27 | is working on this. | |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | * Make it possible to link Guile and TK without using libtcl.a, by | |
| 30 | providing Guile-based replacements for the libtcl.a functions that TK | |
| 31 | requires. | |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | * Make ordinary lambda functions work as callbacks for Tk; | |
| 34 | eliminate the need for tcl-lambda. | |
| 35 | ||
| 36 | * Translators for additional languages; in particular, Perl, Python, | |
| 37 | TCL, Emacs Lisp, and Rexx. | |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | * Clean up declarations of C functions to use a PROTO macro | |
| 40 | for conditional prototypes, instead of explicit conditionals. | |
| 41 | ||
| 42 | * A package for time conversions and formatting. |
