ice-9/ChangeLog

   1 1998-11-13  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
   2
   3         * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax.  Similar to begin but returns
   4         a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
   5         result of the last form.
   6
   7 1998-11-10  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
   8
   9         * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
  10         syncase.scm.
  11
  12         * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
  13
  14         * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
  15         readline-set!: New options interface.
  16
  17         * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
  18
  19 1998-11-05  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
  20
  21         * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
  22         at the end of boot-9.scm.
  23
  24 1998-11-01  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
  25
  26         * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
  27         correctly.  (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
  28
  29 1998-11-01  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
  30
  31         * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
  32         interactive session.
  33         (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
  34
  35         * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
  36         history at exit (add to exit-hook).
  37
  38 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
  39
  40         * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
  41
  42 1998-10-28  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
  43
  44         * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
  45         read line was empty.
  46
  47 1998-10-19  Jim Blandy  <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
  48
  49         * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
  50         r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
  51
  52         * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
  53
  54         Talked to Stallman.  Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
  55         problem.  Duh.
  56         * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
  57         * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
  58         * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
  59
  60         * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
  61         entering a read-eval-print loop.  Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
  62         into...
  63         (load-emacs-interface): New function.
  64         (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
  65         At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
  66
  67         We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
  68         core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
  69         assignments for this code.  We can certainly distribute them as a
  70         separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
  71         * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
  72         * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
  73         psyntax.ss.
  74         * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
  75
  76         * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
  77         * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
  78
  79 1998-10-18  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
  80
  81         * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
  82         and short vectors #h(...).
  83
  84 1998-10-14  Jim Blandy  <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
  85
  86         * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
  87         set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
  88         that syntax a long time ago.  (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
  89
  90 1998-10-12  Jim Blandy  <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
  91
  92         * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
  93         testing software-type here.  That's the least of our Windows
  94         porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
  95
  96 1998-10-09  Jim Blandy  <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
  97
  98         * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
  99         print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
 100
 101         * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
 102         (eq?  #f '()) assumptions.  Make functions that aren't documented
 103         to return anything else return the queue itself.  (Bug report from
 104         Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
 105
 106 1998-08-21  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 107
 108         * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
 109         trace flag.
 110
 111         * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
 112         order to allow the empty list as arg.
 113         (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
 114         context with traps enabled.
 115
 116 1998-08-19  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
 117
 118         * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
 119         module.
 120         (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
 121
 122 1998-08-15  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
 123
 124         * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
 125         available.  The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
 126         currently dependent upon regular expressions.  My change of
 127         1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
 128         module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
 129
 130 1998-07-29  Jim Blandy  <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
 131
 132         * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
 133         automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
 134
 135 1998-07-28  Jim Blandy  <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
 136
 137         * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
 138
 139 1998-07-28  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
 140
 141         * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file.  (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
 142
 143 1998-07-26  Jim Blandy  <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
 144
 145         * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
 146
 147 1998-07-21  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 148
 149         * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
 150         after first read line.  (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
 151
 152 1998-07-19  Jim Blandy  <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
 153
 154         * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
 155         ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
 156         more.  The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
 157         any of the standard I/O functions anyway.  (Thanks to Andrew
 158         Archibald.)
 159
 160         * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
 161         false.  Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
 162         list.  (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
 163
 164 1998-07-16  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
 165
 166         * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
 167         bindings from a module.  `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
 168         the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
 169         should be exported.  It can be used as an alternative to
 170         `define-public'.  `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
 171         but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
 172         (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
 173
 174 1998-07-15  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
 175
 176         * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
 177
 178 1998-07-14  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 179
 180         * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
 181         of module `(guile)'.  Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
 182         suitable modules.  This change improves Guile stability
 183         substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
 184         module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
 185         affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
 186
 187 1998-06-19  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
 188
 189         * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
 190         themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
 191         loaded as root for relative filenames.  (After suggestion by
 192         Steven G. Johnson.)
 193
 194 1998-06-15  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 195
 196         * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
 197
 198 1998-06-14  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 199
 200         * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
 201
 202 1998-06-13  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
 203
 204         * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
 205         be completed.
 206
 207 1998-06-11  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 208
 209         * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
 210
 211 1998-06-09  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 212
 213         * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
 214         enabling readline.  (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
 215
 216 1998-06-07  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 217
 218         * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
 219         similar in use to `use-modules'.
 220         Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
 221         (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
 222         transformer.
 223         (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
 224         (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
 225
 226 1998-05-19  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 227
 228         * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
 229
 230 1998-05-13  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 231
 232         * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
 233         possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
 234         completion.
 235
 236         * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
 237         19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
 238
 239         * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
 240         Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
 241         from repl-read.  (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
 242
 243         * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
 244
 245 1998-05-11  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@kenneth>
 246
 247         * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
 248
 249         * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
 250         Symbolic completion.  (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
 251
 252 1998-04-22  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 253
 254         * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
 255
 256 1998-04-19  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 257
 258         * nonblocking.scm: Removed.  libguile is now inherently
 259         nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
 260
 261         * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
 262
 263         * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed.  tcltk.scm has made these
 264         obsolete.
 265
 266 1998-04-15  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@nada.kth.se>
 267
 268         * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
 269         (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
 270
 271 1998-03-30  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@nada.kth.se>
 272
 273         * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
 274
 275 1998-03-28  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 276
 277         * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro.  (Thanks to Maciej
 278         Stachowiak.)
 279
 280 1998-01-30  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 281
 282         * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
 283         (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler.  The most
 284         important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
 285         Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
 286         (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
 287         threads.
 288
 289 1998-01-01  Tim Pierce  <twp@skepsis.com>
 290
 291         A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
 292         * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
 293         (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
 294
 295 1997-12-24  Tim Pierce  <twp@skepsis.com>
 296
 297         * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
 298
 299         * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
 300         (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
 301
 302 1997-12-13  Tim Pierce  <twp@skepsis.com>
 303
 304         * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
 305         improved speed.  Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
 306         hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
 307         changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
 308         behavior of read-line.  On platforms which do not represent
 309         end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
 310         like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
 311         to go here.
 312
 313 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@kenneth>
 314
 315         * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
 316         is now a fluid.
 317
 318 1997-11-28  Tim Pierce  <twp@skepsis.com>
 319
 320         * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
 321         contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
 322         the shared library name from that file.  If the .la file does not
 323         exist, try to link against a .so file.  Libtool-generated compiled
 324         modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
 325         (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
 326
 327 Sun Nov  9 06:10:59 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 328
 329         * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
 330         usefully so they will work from a script.
 331
 332 1997-10-31  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 333
 334         * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
 335         neighborhood of the record code.
 336
 337 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
 338
 339         * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23.  It turns
 340         out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
 341         support.  It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
 342         worth fixing.  I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
 343
 344 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
 345
 346         * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
 347         installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
 348         * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
 349
 350 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
 351
 352         Add support for readline function.
 353         * readline.scm: New module.
 354         * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
 355         (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
 356         ourselves.  Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
 357         anything.
 358         (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
 359         repl-reader to use them.
 360         If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
 361
 362         * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
 363
 364 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
 365
 366         * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
 367         string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
 368
 369 Thu Oct  9 05:44:00 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 370
 371         * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in

 376
 377         * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive".  if
 378         #f, abort terminates the process.
 379         (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
 380         error-catching-loop.  the names are from scsh.

 393
 394         * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
 395         set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
 396         (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.

 398         user field).
 399         (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
 400         one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.

 406 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
 407
 408         Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
 409         * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
 410         This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
 411         * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
 412         string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
 413         boot-9.scm.
 414         * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
 415         distribution and installation.
 416         * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

 422 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 423
 424         * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
 425         named NAME, then NAME.scm.  On error, report the error occuring at
 426         the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
 427
 428         * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
 429         the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
 430         symbol.
 431
 432 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

 441         separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
 442         continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
 443         field a separate argument.

 450
 451         * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty

 459 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 460
 461         * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
 462         length --> string-length.  (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
 463         (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
 464         separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
 465         <mstachow@mit.edu>.  Thanks!
 466         (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
 467         registered.
 468         (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
 469         corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
 470         (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
 471         registered modules (for example those which have been statically
 472         linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
 473         link a .so-file.

 483
 484 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 485
 486         * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
 487
 488         * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
 489         the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
 490         syncase) has been loaded.  This is necessary to get correct
 491         expansion inside the slib module.
 492
 493         * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
 494         constructors.

 502
 503         * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
 504         Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
 505         syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
 506         source.
 507         Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
 508         variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
 509         been loaded.
 510
 511 Fri Sep  5 05:47:36 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>

 520         (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
 521         mutator for module-associated transformer.

 524         (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
 525         (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
 526         module.
 527         (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
 528
 529 Fri Sep  5 03:09:09 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 530
 531         * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
 532
 533         * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
 534         properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
 535         This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
 536         Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
 537         Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
 538

 540         (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as

 544         the syncase interface.
 545
 546 Thu Sep  4 14:57:04 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 547
 548         * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
 549         globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
 550         workings of the current module system).
 551
 552 Wed Sep  3 21:29:13 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 553
 554         * psyntax.ss: Updated.
 555         psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

 564 Mon Sep  1 20:08:32 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 565
 566         * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
 567         according to the following priorities:
 568         1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
 569         2. bindings from the-scm-module
 570         3. tcl bindings
 571         This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
 572         disabling the scheme interpreter.
 573         (new-interpreter): New function.
 574
 575         * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
 576         gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
 577         it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).

 594
 595         * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
 596         accumulator with a constant pair.  That led to mutation of the
 597         source!
 598

 607         number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
 608         in stack-ref).
 609
 610         * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
 611         non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
 612         Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
 613         (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
 614         (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
 615         result protocol;

 630
 631         * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling

 652
 653         * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
 654         that we now should set the port line count to the specified value

 656
 657         * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
 658         primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
 659         the top.
 660
 661         * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
 662         order to narrow it correctly.

 680
 681         * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
 682         *catalog* is #f until the first access.  Therefore we call
 683         require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
 684
 685 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

 719         (parse-path-symbol): Deleted.  Replaced by above.
 720         Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
 721         instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
 722         (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
 723
 724         * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
 725         from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
 726         optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
 727         definition.  Harmony reigneth?  (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)

 730
 731         Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
 732         different version of ice-9.  People have been skewing things and
 733         sending in bug reports.
 734         * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
 735         produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
 736         * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
 737         display a warning if the two are different.
 738         * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
 739         Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
 740         * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
 741
 742 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
 743
 744         * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
 745
 746 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
 747
 748         * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
 749         check.  Correctly check for struct printer tag.
 750
 751         * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
 752         (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
 753         expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
 754         expect-select): Make these public definitions.
 755         (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
 756         regcomp and regexec.  We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
 757         that's okay.
 758
 759         * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out.  It has no
 760         users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
 761         regexp interface.
 762
 763         * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
 764         boolean.  This stuff has been true for a while.
 765
 766         * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
 767         function names.
 768
 769         * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
 770         fixes.
 771
 772 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
 773
 774         * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
 775         ../configure.in.
 776
 777 Fri Jun  6 14:37:18 1997  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 778
 779         * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
 780         vtable and not the one of the struct.
 781
 782 Wed Jun  4 23:27:16 1997  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 783
 784         * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
 785         make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
 786         to support printing of structures.
 787         (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
 788         function and initialize it with something appropriate.  Removed
 789         commented out printing code.
 790         (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
 791         (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
 792
 793 Tue Jun  3 17:04:18 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
 794
 795         * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
 796
 797 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 798
 799         * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
 800         don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
 801         top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
 802         during call to scm-style-repl.
 803
 804 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 805
 806         * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
 807         basic-load.  This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
 808         source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
 809         make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require.  If this
 810         breaks something, please let me know.  Maybe this is real dumb.
 811
 812 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 813
 814         * regex.scm: Add a module declaration.  Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
 815         * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
 816         (ice-9 regex).
 817
 818 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997  Tim Pierce  <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
 819
 820         * regex.scm: New file.
 821         * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
 822         * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
 823
 824 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
 825
 826         * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
 827         gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
 828         oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
 829         threads.scm: New address for FSF.
 830
 831 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 832
 833         * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
 834         in 1997.
 835
 836 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 837
 838         * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
 839         and use a floating point timeout when calling select.  Untested,
 840         since the regex library is currently AWOL.
 841
 842 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 843
 844         * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
 845         implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
 846         here.
 847
 848 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 849
 850         * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
 851
 852 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 853
 854         * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
 855
 856 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 857
 858         * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
 859         current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
 860         fixes this too.
 861
 862 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 863
 864         * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
 865         consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
 866         avoid screwing up GDB.  More detail in comments.
 867
 868 Mon May  5 13:18:38 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 869
 870         * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
 871         the Scheme code like code yet.
 872         * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
 873
 874 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 875
 876         * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
 877         dynamic-link and dynamic-call.  When the shared library exists it
 878         is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
 879
 880 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 881
 882         * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
 883         use-modules macro
 884         (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
 885         can't be found.
 886
 887 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 888
 889         * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
 890
 891 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 892
 893         * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
 894
 895         * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
 896         we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
 897         * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
 898
 899 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 900
 901         Get 'make dist' to work again.
 902         * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
 903         * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
 904
 905         Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
 906         no plugins.
 907         * configure.in, configure: Removed.
 908         * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
 909
 910 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
 911
 912         * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
 913         functions.
 914
 915 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 916
 917         * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
 918
 919 Tue Apr  1 17:46:49 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 920
 921         * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
 922         arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
 923
 924 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 925
 926         * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
 927         instead of in libguile.
 928         (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
 929         (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
 930
 931 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 932
 933         * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
 934         procedures.
 935         (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
 936         (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
 937
 938 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 939
 940         * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
 941         sockaddr:port): new functions.
 942
 943 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 944
 945         * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
 946         by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
 947         passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
 948         and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
 949
 950 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 951
 952         * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
 953         setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
 954
 955 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 956
 957         * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
 958
 959 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 960
 961         * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
 962         keywords and symbols.
 963
 964 Sat Mar  8 04:32:44 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 965
 966         * slib.scm: update read usage.
 967
 968         * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
 969         Don't define read-sharp.
 970
 971         * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
 972         (read-sharp): removed.
 973         Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
 974         case_i or read-sharp arguments.
 975
 976 Sat Mar  8 00:07:54 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
 977
 978         * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
 979
 980         * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'.  (Replaced by
 981         primitive procedure.)
 982
 983         * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
 984         interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
 985
 986 Thu Mar  6 07:26:34 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 987
 988         * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
 989
 990 Wed Mar  5 20:30:24 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 991
 992         * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
 993
 994 Sun Mar  2 19:47:14 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
 995
 996         * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
 997         read gets EOF.
 998         * (exit): alias for quit.
 999
1000 Sun Mar  2 05:25:11 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1001
1002         * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
1003         return the quit args.
1004         (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
1005         error-catching-repl.  Make -quit return its args.
1006         stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
1007
1008         (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
1009
1010 Sat Mar  1 15:24:39 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1011
1012         * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
1013
1014         * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
1015         explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
1016
1017         * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
1018         Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
1019
1020         * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
1021         stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
1022         of handlers.
1023
1024 Sat Mar  1 00:10:38 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1025
1026         * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
1027
1028         * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
1029         (add-hooks!): New macro.
1030         Change hooks to use these functions.
1031
1032         * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature.  I add
1033         it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
1034         making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
1035         the source! :-)
1036         (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
1037         Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
1038         (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
1039         Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures.  The tracing in
1040         Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
1041         procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
1042         This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
1043         traced.
1044
1045         * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
1046         and exit-frame exceptions.
1047
1048         * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
1049         (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
1050         (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
1051         string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
1052         result; otherwise display "> ".
1053         (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
1054
1055         * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
1056         `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
1057         we load r4rs.scm.  This is just a temporary fix to make the
1058         repository version runnable.
1059
1060 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1061
1062         * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
1063         recording of source code positions.  This was placed there for our
1064         convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
1065         once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
1066         we need it.  (These options are normally enabled at the end of
1067         boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
1068
1069 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1070
1071         * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
1072         (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
1073         and eval.
1074         * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
1075         "defined?".
1076         * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
1077         builtin "defined?".  It allways examines the slib module.
1078
1079 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1080
1081         * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE

1083 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1084
1085         * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
1086         %read-sharp layer.
1087
1088 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1089
1090         * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
1091         uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
1092
1093 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@kenneth>
1094
1095         * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed.  (A C version now exists in
1096         backtrace.c.)
1097
1098 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1099
1100         * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
1101         read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
1102
1103 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1104
1105         Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
1106
1107         * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1108         init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
1109         find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
1110         try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
1111         dynamic linking of modules.
1112         (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
1113         after failing to load it as Scheme code.
1114
1115 Wed Jan  8 05:50:14 1997  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1116
1117         * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
1118
1119 Tue Jan  7 20:02:24 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1120
1121         * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
1122         that's what it is.
1123
1124         * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
1125         the case of an empty buffer list.  The old code assumed that '()
1126         was false.
1127
1128 Mon Jan  6 01:13:53 1997  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@kenneth>
1129
1130         * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
1131         (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
1132         <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
1133
1134 Sun Jan  5 15:52:59 1997  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1135
1136         * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
1137         typing "$" will put you in the debugger.  This isn't implemented
1138         yet.
1139
1140 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1141
1142         * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
1143         been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
1144         (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
1145
1146 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1147
1148         * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
1149         controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
1150         (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
1151         (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
1152
1153         * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
1154         is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
1155         bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
1156         appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
1157         (such as the-scm-module).
1158
1159 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1160
1161         * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
1162         %search-load-path.
1163
1164 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996  Tom Tromey  <tromey@cygnus.com>
1165
1166         * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
1167         * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
1168         * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
1169
1170 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1171
1172         * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
1173         (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
1174         function, use it accordingly.
1175
1176 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1177
1178         It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk."  A thunk is a
1179         function of no arguments.
1180         * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
1181         (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
1182         set-current-module): Uses changed.
1183         (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
1184         root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
1185         set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
1186         (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
1187         *top-level-eval-closure*.
1188
1189 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1190
1191         * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
1192         (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
1193
1194 Sat Nov  2 20:00:42 1996  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1195
1196         * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
1197         aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
1198         debug.scm).  But during development we want to have them also
1199         *inside* boot-9.scm.  Therefore, two lines are added at the
1200         beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
1201
1202         Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
1203         `*features*'.
1204
1205         The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
1206         now commonly available for saving the stack.  Calling `save-stack'
1207         sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
1208         `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
1209
1210         Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
1211
1212         Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
1213
1214         The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
1215         If the user wants to see this, he can do
1216         (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
1217
1218         The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
1219         error.
1220
1221         Added `before-read-hook'.
1222
1223         Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
1224
1225         (provide): New function.
1226
1227         (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
1228         in backtraces.
1229
1230         (backtrace): New function.
1231
1232         (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
1233         specifier pairs.  The first specifier in a pair controls inner
1234         border, the second the outer border.  A number means cut that
1235         number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
1236         is found in operator position in a frame.
1237
1238         * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
1239         by default.
1240
1241         * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
1242         primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
1243         ".scm" extension.  (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
1244
1245         (implementation-vicinity): New function.  slib requires it
1246
1247         (library-vicinity): Updated.
1248
1249         Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
1250
1251         (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
1252
1253 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1254
1255         * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
1256
1257         * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
1258         try-load): Deleted.  I don't think they're being used.
1259
1260         * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
1261         so they'll get distributed.
1262
1263         Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default.  The new user
1264         should see as little clutter as possible.
1265         * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
1266         * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
1267         (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
1268
1269         * r4rs.scm: New file.
1270         * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
1271         (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
1272         open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
1273         close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
1274         call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
1275         with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
1276         with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
1277         with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
1278         r4rs.scm.  Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
1279         that are not.
1280         (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
1281         set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
1282
1283         * test.scm: New file.
1284
1285         * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
1286         present in libguile (which used to be called int?).  I have no
1287         idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
1288
1289         * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
1290         =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
1291
1292         * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
1293         work now.
1294         (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used.  Set %load-hook to
1295         call %load-announce.
1296
1297 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1298
1299         * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
1300         stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
1301         stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
1302         components.
1303         (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
1304
1305 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1306
1307         * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
1308         that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
1309         SCSH (which this isn't).
1310
1311 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1312
1313         * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
1314
1315 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1316
1317         * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
1318         after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
1319         to the error handler.  E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
1320         these.
1321         (save-stack): New function.  The stack is now made differently
1322         depending on the stack id.  (The motivation is to make a better
1323         choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
1324         (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
1325         save-stack.
1326
1327 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1328
1329         * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
1330
1331         * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
1332
1333         * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
1334         error-catching-loop.
1335         Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
1336         Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
1337         Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
1338
1339         Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
1340         error-catching-loop.
1341
1342 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1343
1344         * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
1345         (make-module): Rework for readability.
1346         (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
1347         should be '(), not #f.
1348
1349         * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
1350         primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
1351
1352 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
1353
1354         * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
1355         the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
1356         error-signal.
1357
1358 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
1359
1360         * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
1361         handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
1362         Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
1363         start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
1364
1365 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
1366
1367         * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
1368
1369 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
1370
1371         * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
1372
1373         * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
1374         throw-handler-default.
1375         ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
1376         reported.
1377         ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
1378         acro.
1379         ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
1380         error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
1381
1382 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1383
1384         * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
1385         make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
1386         port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
1387         * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
1388
1389 Sun Oct  6 03:54:59 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1390
1391         * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
1392         Append "." to the default %load-path.
1393         (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
1394         (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
1395         ...))
1396         (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
1397         (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
1398         (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
1399         (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
1400         file-is-directory?
1401
1402 Sat Oct  5 18:54:03 1996  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@kenneth>
1403
1404         * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
1405
1406         * threads.scm: New file.  Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
1407         distribution.
1408
1409         * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
1410         `switch-repl'.
1411
1412         * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
1413
1414 Wed Oct  2 23:38:44 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1415
1416         * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
1417         the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
1418
1419 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1420
1421         * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
1422
1423         * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
1424
1425 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1426
1427         * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error.  Throw
1428         to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
1429         Don't set up 'error as a key.
1430         Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
1431         (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
1432
1433         (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
1434         basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
1435         try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
1436         they seem redundant.
1437         (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
1438         (load): rewritten.  load tries to open the file directly and
1439         with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
1440         (should "." be added to %load-path?  then load could still open
1441         directly files starting with "/").
1442         (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
1443         (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
1444
1445         (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.

1447 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1448
1449         * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
1450         straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
1451         (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity.  2)
1452         Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
1453         not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
1454         than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
1455         something better if it wants.  3) In that case, it's much more
1456         robust to just do it in the C code.

1458 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1459
1460         * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load.  Previously
1461         %try-load itself was the primitive.
1462         (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
1463         Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
1464         (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
1465
1466 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@kenneth>
1467
1468         * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
1469         (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
1470         for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
1471
1472 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1473
1474         * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
1475         system-error, not every kind of error.
1476         (scm-error): new procedure.
1477
1478 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996  Jim Blandy  <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>

1483
1484         * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
1485         SCM-style errors.  handle the case that an unexpected number
1486         of args are supplied.
1487         (%%system-errors): removed.
1488         (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
1489         ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
1490         %%handle-system-error.
1491         (%%default-error-handler): removed.
1492         (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
1493         Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
1494         (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
1495
1496 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1497
1498         * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
1499         (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
1500         Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
1501         %S (embed an argument using "write").
1502
1503 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1504
1505         * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
1506         the empty list if they are #f.
1507         Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
1508
1509 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996  Gary Houston  <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1510
1511         * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
1512
1513         * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
1514         (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
1515         aborting, just the key and subr.
1516         Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
1517         Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
1518         Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.

1521
1522         * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
1523         resolved-ref --> nested-ref  Motivation: conformance to the other
1524         dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
1525         operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
1526         local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.

1531         by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
1532         (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
1533         (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.

1538         (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
1539         initialize %load-path.
1540
1541         * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
1542         "/", use one to separate it from the file.
1543
1544 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996  Thomas Morgan  <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1545
1546         * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
1547         Add the directory named after the version number.
1548         Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
1549         Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
1550         * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
1551         sitedatadir): New definitions.

1558
1559         Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
1560         Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
1561         in the Makefile directly.
1562         * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
1563         for these.
1564         * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
1565         aux_files.

1567         here, where people expect to find them.

1596         (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
1597         modified for open-file change (does not return #f).

1602         (manifest): Deleted.
1603         * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a

1607
