19 2002-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
21 * format.scm (format:fn-max): Increase to 400 so ~f and ~g can
22 print long real numbers with large positive and negative
25 2002-05-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
27 * syncase.scm: Use (ice-9 threads) so that with-mutex is defined.

31 * gap-buffer.scm: New file.
33 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add gap-buffer.scm.

51 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
53 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
55 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
56 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
57 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
59 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
61 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

69 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
71 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
73 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
74 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
75 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
76 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
78 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
80 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
82 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
83 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
84 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
86 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
88 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

99 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
101 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
102 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
103 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
105 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
106 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,
107 expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, ls.scm, mapping.scm,

110 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
111 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
112 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
113 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
116 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
118 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
121 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
123 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
124 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
125 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
126 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
128 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
130 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
131 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
132 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
135 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
137 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
139 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>
141 * expect.scm: Commentary fix; nfc.

145 2001-09-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
147 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Reference compile-psyntax.scm in
148 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
150 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
152 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
153 the `arglist' procedure property.
154 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
155 present a more detailed argument list.
157 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
159 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
161 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
162 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
165 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
167 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
169 (feature?): Deprecated.
171 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,

178 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
180 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
181 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
183 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated
186 * format.scm: Remove deprecated definition of format that was
187 needed to trick export.
189 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
191 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
193 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
195 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
197 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
199 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
201 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
202 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
203 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
205 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
207 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
208 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
210 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
212 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
214 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
216 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
220 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
222 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
223 last-command fluid is not yet set.
225 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
227 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
229 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
230 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
231 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
233 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
235 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
236 handle :use-syntax correctly.
238 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
240 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
243 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
245 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
246 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
247 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
248 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
249 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
251 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
253 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
254 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
255 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
257 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
259 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
260 primitives. Thanks Neil!
262 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
264 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
265 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
266 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
267 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
269 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
270 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
271 since there aren't definitions for them.
273 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
274 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
276 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
278 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
279 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
281 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
283 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
284 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
286 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
288 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
289 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
290 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
292 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
294 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
296 * tags.scm: Removed file.
298 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
300 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
301 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
303 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
304 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
305 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
308 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
310 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
311 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
313 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
315 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
316 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
318 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
319 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
320 evaluator trap options.)

324 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
326 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
328 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
330 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
332 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
334 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
336 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
337 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
339 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
342 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
343 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
344 No longer require `pretty-print'.
346 (slib:error): Delete.
347 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
349 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
354 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
358 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
360 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
361 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
362 rdelim) module. See below.
364 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
366 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
367 include-deprecated-features is true.
369 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
371 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
374 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
375 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
376 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
378 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
379 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
380 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
383 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
385 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
386 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
387 variable, not just a visible one.
388 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
389 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
390 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
391 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
392 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
393 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
395 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
397 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
398 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
400 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
402 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
403 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
405 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
407 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
409 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
411 Added exception notice to all files.
413 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
414 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
415 importing bindings once in a while.
417 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
419 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
420 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
421 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
422 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
423 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
424 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
425 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
426 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
428 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
429 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
431 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
433 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
434 fix command so that it works.
436 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
437 to access unbound variables.
439 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
440 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
441 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
442 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
443 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
445 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
447 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
448 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
449 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
450 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
451 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
452 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
453 argument for process-define-module.
454 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
455 arguments for process-use-modules.
456 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
458 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
460 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
461 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
462 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
465 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
466 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
467 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
469 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
471 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
473 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules
475 (cond-expand): Use feature information associated with modules.

479 * boot-9.scm (use-srfis): Do not extend the srfi-0 feature list.
480 (cond-expand-provide): New procedure.
482 2001-05-22 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
484 * boot-9.scm (define-module): Return the new module.
485 (process-define-module): Use `spec' instead of `module-name' when
486 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
488 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
490 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
491 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
493 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
496 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
498 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
499 * match.scm: Likewise.
500 * expect.scm: Likewise.
501 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
503 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
505 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
507 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
509 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
510 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
511 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
512 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
513 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
514 element list when adding "." to it.
515 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
516 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
518 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
520 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
522 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
523 now accepts arg; update callers.
524 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
525 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
527 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
528 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
529 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
530 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
531 `search-documentation-files'.
532 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
533 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
534 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
536 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
537 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
539 (find-documentation): Delete.
540 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
541 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.
543 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
545 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
546 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.
547 (use-srfis): New procedure.
549 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
551 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if
552 used module's public interface is not available.
553 No longer call `beautify-user-module!'.
554 Signal error now also if selected binding not found.
556 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
558 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
560 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
562 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
564 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
565 the magical undefined value.
566 (let-o-k-template): Use `#f' instead of the undefined value as
567 the default default for bindings.
569 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to
570 make-undefined-variable, use `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
571 (root-module-closure): Removed.
572 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
573 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
574 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
575 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
576 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
577 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
578 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
579 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
580 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
581 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to

957 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
958 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
959 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
960 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
961 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
962 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
963 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
965 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

977 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
980 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
982 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
984 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
986 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
987 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
988 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
989 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
990 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,

1002 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1003 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1004 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define

1008 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1010 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1011 and open-output-pipe.
1013 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1015 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1016 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1017 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1018 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1019 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1020 Pirotte for the bug report).
1021 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1022 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1024 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1026 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1047 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1048 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1050 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1051 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1052 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1053 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1054 actual documentation entries themselves.
1056 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1086 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1088 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1089 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1090 even worked... /mdj.
1091 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1093 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS

1119 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1121 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1122 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1123 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1124 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1125 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)

1154 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1155 definition of module-type.
1157 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1159 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1161 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1163 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1164 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1166 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1168 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1170 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1172 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1173 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1174 Mikael for the suggestion.
1176 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1178 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1179 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1181 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1183 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1186 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1188 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1190 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1192 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1193 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1196 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1197 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1200 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1202 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1203 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1205 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1206 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1207 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1209 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1211 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1213 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1215 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1216 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1218 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1220 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1221 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1223 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1225 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1226 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1228 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1230 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1232 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1234 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1236 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1238 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1240 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1241 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1243 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1245 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1248 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1249 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1250 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1251 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1254 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1256 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1258 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1260 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1261 (write-all): Removed.
1262 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1263 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1265 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1267 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1268 `proc-documentation'
1270 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1271 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1272 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1273 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1274 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1275 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1276 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1279 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1281 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1283 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1285 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1286 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1287 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1290 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1292 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1293 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1294 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1295 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1296 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1297 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1298 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1300 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1302 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1303 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1305 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1307 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1308 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1310 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1312 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1313 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1314 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1315 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1316 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1317 delete-if! when iterating.
1319 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1321 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1323 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1325 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1327 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1329 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1330 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1331 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1332 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1334 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1336 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1337 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1339 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1341 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1342 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1343 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1344 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1346 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1348 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1349 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1351 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1353 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1354 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1356 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1358 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1361 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1363 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1364 source of the numerous very short changes.
1366 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1368 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1371 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1374 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1376 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1379 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1381 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1382 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1384 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1386 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1389 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1391 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1392 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1393 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1395 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1397 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1398 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1399 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1400 Narazaki for this change.
1402 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1404 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1405 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1408 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1409 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1411 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1413 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1414 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1416 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1418 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1419 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1420 use define-public to export from the module.
1422 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1424 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1425 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1426 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1428 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1430 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1432 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1434 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1435 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1437 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1439 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1441 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1443 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1445 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1447 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1448 long_long uniform vectors.
1450 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1452 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1453 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1455 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1457 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1458 script to create generated files like this one.
1460 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1462 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1463 available before using getpw and getuid.
1464 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1465 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1467 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1468 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1469 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1471 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1472 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1473 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1475 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1476 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1478 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1480 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1482 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1483 than 'exit-debugger.
1485 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1486 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1488 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1490 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1492 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1493 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1494 ("position"): New command.
1495 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1496 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1497 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1498 to return a valid state.)
1499 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1501 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1503 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1504 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1507 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1509 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1510 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1512 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1514 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1516 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1518 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1519 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1521 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1522 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1523 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1525 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1528 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1530 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1531 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1533 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1535 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1537 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1538 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1539 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1540 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1542 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1545 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1546 both forward and backward views of the stack
1547 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1548 Use selector `frame-number';
1549 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1550 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1552 Use readline conditionally.
1554 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1556 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1557 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1558 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1560 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1561 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1564 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1566 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1568 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1570 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1572 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1574 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1576 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1577 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1578 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1579 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1580 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1581 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1582 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1583 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1584 libguile-config-stamp.
1585 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1586 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1587 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1588 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1589 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1591 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1593 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1594 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1595 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1597 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1598 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1599 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1600 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1603 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1605 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1607 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1609 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1611 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1612 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1614 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1616 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1617 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1618 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1619 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1620 objects starting with '#/'.
1622 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1624 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1625 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1626 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1627 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1628 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1629 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1631 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1632 module-modified): New procedures.
1633 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1634 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1636 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1638 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1641 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1643 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1644 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1645 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1647 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1650 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1652 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1653 at multiple calls to read.
1654 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1655 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1656 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1657 continued-lines prompt.
1659 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1660 reading expressions.
1662 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1664 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1665 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1667 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1669 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1670 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1673 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1675 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1676 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1678 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1679 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1680 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1681 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1682 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1685 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1687 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1688 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1690 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1692 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1693 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1694 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1695 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1697 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1699 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1701 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1702 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1703 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1706 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1708 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1709 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1710 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1711 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1712 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1713 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1714 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1715 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1716 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1717 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1718 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1720 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1722 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1723 peeked from the stream.
1724 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1725 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1726 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1728 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1730 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1731 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1733 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1735 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1736 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1737 exiting repl with single control-D.
1739 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1741 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1742 error catching loop after quit received.
1743 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1745 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1746 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1747 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1749 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1750 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1752 * popen.scm: new file.
1754 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1756 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1757 (reverse-iota): removed.
1759 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1761 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1762 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1764 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1766 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1767 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1768 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1769 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1770 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1772 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1774 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1776 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1777 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1779 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1780 Guile's module system.
1782 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1784 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1785 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1786 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1787 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1788 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1789 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1791 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1792 '() when the condition is false.
1794 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1796 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1798 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1800 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1802 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1804 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1805 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1806 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1808 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1810 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1811 argument order for hash-fold.
1813 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1815 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1817 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1818 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1820 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1821 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1822 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1823 has been added to the load path).
1825 Use try-load-module.
1827 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1829 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1830 module between system and user state.
1832 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1834 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1836 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1839 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1841 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1842 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1843 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1845 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1847 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1848 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1849 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1850 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1851 stack frame encountered.
1853 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1854 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1855 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1856 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1859 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1860 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1861 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1862 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
1865 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
1866 define-module switches:
1868 (define-module (foo)
1871 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
1874 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
1875 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
1876 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
1877 module it is a system frame.
1879 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
1880 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
1881 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
1882 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
1883 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
1885 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
1886 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
1887 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
1888 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
1889 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
1890 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
1892 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
1893 status of a module.;
1894 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
1895 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
1897 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
1898 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
1899 closure to the module.
1901 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
1903 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1905 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
1907 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1909 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
1911 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1913 Fix from Russ McManus:
1914 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
1915 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
1916 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
1917 either an optional or required value.
1919 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1921 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
1923 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
1924 of the '() key, not `rest'.
1926 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
1927 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
1928 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
1929 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1931 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1933 * optargs.scm: New file.
1934 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
1935 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
1937 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1939 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
1940 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
1941 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1943 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1945 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
1946 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
1949 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1951 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1953 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1955 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
1956 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
1957 applied to the module itself.
1959 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1961 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
1963 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
1964 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
1966 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1968 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
1970 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1972 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
1974 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1976 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
1977 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
1979 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1981 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
1982 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
1983 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
1984 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
1985 among BINDINGS is referenced.
1986 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
1987 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
1989 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1991 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
1992 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
1994 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1996 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
1997 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2000 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2002 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2004 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2006 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2008 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2010 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2011 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2012 adapt to the new hooks.
2014 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2016 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2017 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2018 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2020 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2021 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2023 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2024 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2025 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2026 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2027 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2028 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2029 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2030 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2031 first to register linked modules.
2033 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2034 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2035 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2037 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2038 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2039 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2040 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2042 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2044 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2047 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2048 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2049 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2051 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2053 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2054 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2055 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2057 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2059 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2060 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2061 result of the last form.
2063 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2065 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2068 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2070 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2071 readline-set!: New options interface.
2073 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2075 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2077 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2078 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2080 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2082 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2083 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2085 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2087 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2088 interactive session.
2089 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2091 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2092 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2094 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2096 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2098 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2100 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2101 read line was empty.
2103 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2105 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2106 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2108 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2110 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2112 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2113 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2114 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2116 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2117 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2119 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2120 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2121 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2123 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2124 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2125 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2126 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2127 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2128 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2130 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2132 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2133 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2135 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2137 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2138 and short vectors #h(...).
2140 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2142 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2143 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2144 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2146 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2148 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2149 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2150 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2152 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2154 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2155 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2157 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2158 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2159 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2160 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2162 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2164 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2167 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2168 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2169 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2170 context with traps enabled.
2172 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2174 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2176 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2178 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2180 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2181 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2182 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2183 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2184 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2186 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2188 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2189 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2191 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2193 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2195 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2197 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2199 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2201 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2203 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2205 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2206 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2208 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2210 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2211 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2212 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2213 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2216 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2217 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2218 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2220 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2222 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2223 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2224 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2225 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2226 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2227 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2228 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2230 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2232 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2234 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2236 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2237 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2238 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2239 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2240 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2241 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2243 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2245 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2246 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2247 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2250 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2252 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2254 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2256 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2258 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2260 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2263 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2265 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2267 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2269 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2270 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2272 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2274 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2275 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2276 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2277 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2279 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2280 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2282 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2284 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2286 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2288 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2289 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2292 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2293 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2295 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2296 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2297 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2299 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2301 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2303 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2305 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2306 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2308 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2310 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2312 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2314 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2315 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2317 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2319 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2322 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2324 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2325 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2327 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2329 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2331 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2333 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2336 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2338 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2339 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2340 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2341 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2342 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2345 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2347 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2348 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2349 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2351 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2353 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2355 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2356 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2358 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2360 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2361 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2362 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2363 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2364 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2365 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2366 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2369 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2371 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2374 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2376 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2377 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2378 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2379 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2380 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2381 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2383 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2385 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2386 usefully so they will work from a script.
2388 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2390 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2391 neighborhood of the record code.
2393 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2395 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2396 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2397 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2398 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2400 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2402 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2403 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2404 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2406 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2408 Add support for readline function.
2409 * readline.scm: New module.
2410 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2411 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2412 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2414 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2415 repl-reader to use them.
2416 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2418 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2420 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2422 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2423 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2425 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2427 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2428 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2429 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2431 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2433 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2434 #f, abort terminates the process.
2435 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2436 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2438 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2440 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2441 print-state, throw it away.
2443 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2445 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2448 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2450 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2451 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2452 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2453 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2455 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2456 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2458 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2460 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2462 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2464 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2465 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2466 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2467 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2468 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2470 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2471 distribution and installation.
2472 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2474 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2476 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2478 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2480 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2481 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2482 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2484 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2485 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2488 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2490 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2492 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2494 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2496 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2497 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2498 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2499 field a separate argument.
2501 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2503 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2505 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2507 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
2511 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2513 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
2515 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2517 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
2518 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2519 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2520 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2521 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2522 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2524 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2525 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2526 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2527 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2528 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2531 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2533 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
2535 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2537 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
2538 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
2540 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2542 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2544 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2545 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2546 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2547 expansion inside the slib module.
2549 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2551 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
2552 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
2553 (let): New core form.
2554 (if): Removed from core language.
2555 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.

2557 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
2559 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
2560 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2561 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2563 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2564 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2567 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2569 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2570 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2572 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
2574 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
2575 (make-module): Modified initialization.
2576 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
2577 mutator for module-associated transformer.
2578 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
2579 `scm:eval-transformer'.
2580 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
2581 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
2583 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
2585 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2587 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2589 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2590 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2591 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2592 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2593 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2595 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2596 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2597 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2599 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2600 the syncase interface.
2602 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2604 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2605 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2606 workings of the current module system).
2608 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2610 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2611 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
2614 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2616 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
2617 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
2618 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
2620 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2622 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2623 according to the following priorities:
2624 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2625 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2627 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2628 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2629 (new-interpreter): New function.
2631 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2632 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2633 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2635 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2637 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2639 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2641 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
2643 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2645 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
2647 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
2649 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2651 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2652 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
2655 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2657 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2658 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
2659 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
2660 symbols matching regexp.
2662 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
2663 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2666 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2667 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
2668 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
2669 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
2670 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2672 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2673 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2675 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2677 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2678 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2680 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2681 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2683 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2685 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2687 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2688 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
2689 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
2691 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
2693 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
2694 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
2695 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
2697 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2699 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
2700 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.
2702 Sat Aug 16 18:44:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2704 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
2707 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2709 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2710 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2711 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2713 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2714 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2717 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2718 order to narrow it correctly.
2719 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
2721 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2723 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
2724 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
2726 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2728 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
2730 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2732 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2733 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2735 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2737 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2738 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2739 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2741 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2743 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2746 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2748 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
2749 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
2750 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
2751 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
2752 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
2754 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2756 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
2757 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
2760 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
2762 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2764 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
2765 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
2766 notation, instead of #/ notation.
2768 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
2771 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2773 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2774 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2775 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2776 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2777 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2778 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2780 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2781 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2782 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2783 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2785 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2787 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2788 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2789 sending in bug reports.
2790 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2791 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2792 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2793 display a warning if the two are different.
2794 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2795 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2796 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2798 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2800 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
2802 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2804 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2805 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2807 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2808 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2809 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2810 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2811 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2812 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2815 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2816 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2819 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2820 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2822 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2825 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2828 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2830 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
2833 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2835 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2836 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2838 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2840 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2841 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2842 to support printing of structures.
2843 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2844 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2845 commented out printing code.
2846 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2847 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
2849 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2851 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
2853 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2855 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
2856 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2857 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2858 during call to scm-style-repl.
2860 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2862 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2863 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2864 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
2865 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
2866 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
2868 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2870 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
2871 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
2874 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
2876 * regex.scm: New file.
2877 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
2878 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2880 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2882 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
2883 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
2884 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
2885 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
2887 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2889 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
2892 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2894 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
2895 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
2896 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
2898 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2900 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
2901 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
2904 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2906 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2908 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2910 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2912 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2914 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
2915 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
2918 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2920 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
2921 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
2922 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
2924 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2926 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
2927 the Scheme code like code yet.
2928 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
2930 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2932 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
2933 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
2934 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
2936 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2938 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
2940 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
2943 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2945 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
2947 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2949 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
2951 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
2952 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
2953 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
2955 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2957 Get 'make dist' to work again.
2958 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
2959 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
2961 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
2963 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
2964 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2966 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2968 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
2971 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2973 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
2975 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2977 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
2978 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
2980 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2982 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
2983 instead of in libguile.
2984 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
2985 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
2987 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2989 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
2991 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
2992 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
2994 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2996 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
2997 sockaddr:port): new functions.
2999 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3001 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3002 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3003 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3004 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3006 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3008 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3009 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3011 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3013 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3015 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3017 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3018 keywords and symbols.
3020 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3022 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3024 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3025 Don't define read-sharp.
3027 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3028 (read-sharp): removed.
3029 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3030 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3032 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3034 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3036 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3037 primitive procedure.)
3039 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3040 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3042 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3044 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3046 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3048 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3050 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3052 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3054 * (exit): alias for quit.
3056 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3058 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3059 return the quit args.
3060 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3061 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3062 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3064 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3066 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3068 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3070 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3071 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3073 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3074 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3076 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3077 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3080 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3082 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3084 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3085 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3086 Change hooks to use these functions.
3088 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3089 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3090 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3092 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3093 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3094 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3095 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3096 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3097 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3098 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3101 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3102 and exit-frame exceptions.
3104 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3105 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3106 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3107 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3108 result; otherwise display "> ".
3109 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3111 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3112 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3113 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3114 repository version runnable.
3116 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3118 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3119 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3120 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3121 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3122 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3123 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3125 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3127 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3128 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3130 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3132 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3133 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3135 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3137 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3139 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3141 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3144 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3146 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3147 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3149 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3151 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3154 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3156 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3157 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3159 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3161 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3163 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3164 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3165 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3166 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3167 dynamic linking of modules.
3168 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3169 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3171 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3173 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3175 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3177 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3180 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3181 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3184 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3186 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3187 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3188 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3190 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3192 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3193 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3196 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3198 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3199 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3200 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3202 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3204 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3205 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3206 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3207 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3209 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3210 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3211 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3212 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3213 (such as the-scm-module).
3215 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3217 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3220 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3222 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3223 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3224 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3226 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3228 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3229 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3230 function, use it accordingly.
3232 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3234 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3235 function of no arguments.
3236 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3237 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3238 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3239 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3240 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3241 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3242 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3243 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3245 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3247 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3248 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3250 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3252 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3253 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3254 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3255 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3256 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3258 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3261 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3262 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3263 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3264 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3266 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3268 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3270 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3271 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3272 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3274 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3277 Added `before-read-hook'.
3279 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3281 (provide): New function.
3283 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3286 (backtrace): New function.
3288 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3289 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3290 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3291 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3292 is found in operator position in a frame.
3294 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3297 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3298 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3299 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3301 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3303 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3305 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3307 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3309 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3311 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3313 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3314 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3316 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3317 so they'll get distributed.
3319 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3320 should see as little clutter as possible.
3321 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3322 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3323 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3325 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3326 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3327 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3328 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3329 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3330 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3331 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3332 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3333 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3334 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3336 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3337 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3339 * test.scm: New file.
3341 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3342 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3343 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3345 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3346 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3348 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3350 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3351 call %load-announce.
3353 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3355 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3356 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3357 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3359 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3361 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3363 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3364 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3365 SCSH (which this isn't).
3367 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3369 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3371 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3373 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3374 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3375 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3377 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3378 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3379 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3380 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3383 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3385 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3387 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3389 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3390 error-catching-loop.
3391 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3392 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3393 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3395 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3396 error-catching-loop.
3398 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3400 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3401 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3402 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3403 should be '(), not #f.
3405 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3406 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3408 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3410 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3411 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3414 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3416 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3417 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3418 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3419 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3421 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3423 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3425 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3427 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3429 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3430 throw-handler-default.
3431 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3433 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3435 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3436 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3438 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3440 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3441 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3442 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3443 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3445 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3447 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3448 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3449 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3450 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3452 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3453 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3454 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3455 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3458 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3460 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3462 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3465 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3468 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3470 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3472 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3473 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3475 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3477 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3479 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3481 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3483 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3484 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3485 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3486 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3487 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3489 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3490 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3491 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3492 they seem redundant.
3493 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3494 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3495 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3496 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3497 directly files starting with "/").
3498 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3499 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3501 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3503 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3505 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3506 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3507 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3508 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3509 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3510 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3511 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3512 robust to just do it in the C code.
3514 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3516 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3517 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3518 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3519 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3520 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3522 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3524 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3525 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3526 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3528 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3530 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3531 system-error, not every kind of error.
3532 (scm-error): new procedure.
3534 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3536 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3538 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3540 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3541 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3542 of args are supplied.
3543 (%%system-errors): removed.
3544 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3545 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3546 %%handle-system-error.
3547 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3548 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3549 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3550 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3552 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3554 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3555 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3556 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3557 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3559 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3561 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3562 the empty list if they are #f.
3563 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3565 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3567 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3569 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3570 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3571 aborting, just the key and subr.
3572 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3573 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3574 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3576 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3578 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3579 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3580 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3581 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3582 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3584 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3586 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3587 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3588 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3589 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3591 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3593 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3594 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3595 initialize %load-path.
3597 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3598 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3600 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3602 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3603 Add the directory named after the version number.
3604 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3605 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3606 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3607 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3608 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3609 (install): Create the above directories.
3610 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3611 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3613 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3615 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3616 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3617 in the Makefile directly.
3618 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3620 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3622 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3623 here, where people expect to find them.
3625 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3627 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3628 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3630 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3632 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3634 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3635 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3637 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3639 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
3640 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3642 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
3643 weak-key-hash-table.
3645 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3647 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3648 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3649 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
3650 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
3651 (%open-file): removed.
3652 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3653 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3655 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3657 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3658 (manifest): Deleted.
3659 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
3660 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3662 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3664 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3665 now that they throw errors directly.
3666 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3667 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
3669 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3671 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
3673 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
3675 * The more things change...
