  56
  57         * preface.texi: Use MANUAL_EDITION variable.

  63
  64         * scheme-indices.texi (R5RS Index, Guile Extensions Index): Use
  65         @unnumbered rather than @chapter for these indices.
  66
  67         * guile.texi (Top): A little top-level reshuffling, with the aims
  68         that: (1) the `Guile Scheme' (reference) part of the manual
  69         becomes the `Guile API Reference', and covers both Scheme and C
  70         interfaces; (2) non-API-reference material such as the `Basic
  71         Ideas in Scheme' chapter is collected together to form a new part
  72         `Programming with Guile'.  This new part will contain general
  73         documentation on using and programming Guile in both Scheme and C,
  74         including - for example - awareness of GC when C programming, how
  75         to use the snarf macros, how to debug ...
  76         (Top): Move inclusion of scheme-indices.texi so that all indices
  77         appear together in the printed manual.
  78
  79         * Makefile.am (guile_TEXINFOS): Removed appendices.texi, added
  80         debugging.texi.
  81
  82         * appendices.texi: Removed.
  83
  84         * debugging.texi (Debugger User Interface): New file, same as the
  85         material that used to be in appendices.texi, but now a chapter in
  86         Part II rather than an appendix.
  87
  88         * appendices.texi (Obtaining and Installing Guile): Moved to
  89         become a chapter in ...
  90         * intro.texi: ... Part I: Introduction to Guile.
  91
  92         * scm.texi (I/O Extensions): Moved to become a section of ...
  93         * scheme-io.texi (Input and Output): ... this chapter.
  94
  95         * scm.texi (Handling Errors): Moved to become a section of ...
  96         * scheme-control.texi (Control Mechanisms): ... this chapter.
  97
  98 2001-11-06  Thien-Thi Nguyen  <ttn@glug.org>

 101         time and clock resolution, SRFI-19 Time object and accessors,
 102         SRFI-19 Time comparison procedures, SRFI-19 Time arithmetic
 103         procedures, SRFI-19 Date object and accessors, SRFI-19
 104         Time/Date/Julian Day/Modified Julian Day converters, SRFI-19 Date
 105         to string/string to date converters): New nodes.
 106         (SRFI Support): Add "SRFI-19" to menu.

 111
 112 2001-10-27  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
 113
 114         * guile.texi, scsh.texi: removed obsolete guile-scsh material
 115         and updated links (I don't know if it should remain in the
 116         main menu.  It's like slib I think.)
 117
 118         * minor updates to the slib installation notes.

 159         the stable CVS branch.
 160

 172         The change log for files in this directory continues backwards
 173         from 2001-08-27 in ../ChangeLog, as all the Guile documentation
 174         prior to this date was contained in a single directory.
