45 * slib.scm (%system-define): Removed.
47 (define): Changed to use define-private instead of
50 * boot-9.scm (define-private): Undid my changes from 2002-11-16
51 until Guile supports hygienic macros.
53 2002-11-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
55 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it

75 2002-11-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
77 * format.scm (format): Use 'monitor' properly. Not the definition

106 * threads.scm (%thread-handler): Explicitely return '#f'. This
107 value will be returned by join-thread.
109 2002-10-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

150 should be unnecessary now.
152 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
154 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in

260 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
262 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
264 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
265 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
266 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
268 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
270 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

278 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
280 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
282 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
283 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
284 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
285 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
287 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
289 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
291 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
292 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
293 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
295 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
297 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

315 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

320 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
321 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
322 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
325 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
327 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
330 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
332 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
333 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
334 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
335 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
337 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
339 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
340 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,

370 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission

374 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
376 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
378 (feature?): Deprecated.

400 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
402 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

406 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
408 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
410 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
411 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
412 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
414 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
416 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
417 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
419 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

423 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
425 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
429 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

434 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
436 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
438 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
439 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
440 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
442 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
444 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
445 handle :use-syntax correctly.
447 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
449 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
452 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
454 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in

457 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
458 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
460 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

469 primitives. Thanks Neil!
471 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
473 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
474 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
475 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
476 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
478 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
479 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
480 since there aren't definitions for them.
482 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
483 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
485 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
487 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
488 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
490 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
492 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
493 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
495 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
497 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
498 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
499 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
501 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
503 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
505 * tags.scm: Removed file.

517 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
519 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
520 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
522 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
524 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
525 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
527 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
528 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
529 evaluator trap options.)

533 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
535 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
537 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
539 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
541 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
543 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
545 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
546 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
548 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
551 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.

556 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
558 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
563 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
567 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
569 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
570 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
571 rdelim) module. See below.
573 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
575 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
576 include-deprecated-features is true.
578 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
580 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
583 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
584 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
585 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
587 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
588 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
589 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
592 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
594 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
595 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
596 variable, not just a visible one.
597 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
598 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
599 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
600 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
601 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
602 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
604 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
606 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
607 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
609 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
611 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
612 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
614 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
616 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
618 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
620 Added exception notice to all files.
622 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
623 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
624 importing bindings once in a while.
626 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
628 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
629 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.

634 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
635 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
637 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
638 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.

642 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
643 fix command so that it works.
645 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
646 to access unbound variables.
648 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
649 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
650 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
651 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
652 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
654 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
656 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.

676 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.

719 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
720 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
721 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
722 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
723 element list when adding "." to it.

742 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
743 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".

746 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
748 (find-documentation): Delete.

782 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
783 (scm-module-closure): Removed.

785 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
786 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.

788 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
789 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
790 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to

1168 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1169 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1170 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1171 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1172 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1174 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1176 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1177 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1179 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1181 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1184 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1186 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1189 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1191 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1193 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1195 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1196 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1197 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1198 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1199 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
1200 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
1201 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1202 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
1203 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
1204 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1205 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1206 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1207 make-shared-substring.
1209 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1211 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1212 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1213 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1214 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1217 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1219 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1220 and open-output-pipe.
1222 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1224 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1225 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1226 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1227 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1228 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1229 Pirotte for the bug report).
1230 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1231 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1233 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1235 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
1236 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
1238 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1240 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
1242 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1244 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): regexp-exec does not
1245 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
1248 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1250 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
1253 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1255 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1256 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1257 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1259 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1260 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1261 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1262 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1263 actual documentation entries themselves.
1265 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1267 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1269 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1271 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
1273 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1275 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
1276 Convert first argument to a string.
1278 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
1279 getter-and-setter-syntax,
1280 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
1281 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
1283 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
1285 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
1287 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1289 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1291 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1293 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1295 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1297 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1298 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1299 even worked... /mdj.
1300 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1302 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1305 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1307 * psyntax.ss (set!): Added generalized set! support to core syntax
1310 2000-08-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1312 * optargs.scm (#\&): Changed #:allow-other-keys-value to
1313 #:allow-other-keys. Thanks to Bill Schottstaedt!
1315 2000-08-17 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1317 * optargs.scm (#\&): Emit warning about `#&' being deprecated.
1319 2000-08-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1321 * optargs.scm: Replaced `#&' reader syntax with keywords.
1323 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1325 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
1328 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1330 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1331 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1332 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1333 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1334 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1336 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1338 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1340 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1341 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1343 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1346 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1347 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1348 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1349 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1351 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1353 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
1354 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
1356 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
1358 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1359 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1361 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1363 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1364 definition of module-type.
1366 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1368 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1370 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1372 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1373 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1375 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1377 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1379 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1381 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1382 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1383 Mikael for the suggestion.
1385 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1387 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1388 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1390 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1392 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1395 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1397 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1399 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1401 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1402 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1405 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1406 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1409 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1411 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1412 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1414 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1415 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1416 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1418 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1420 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1422 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1424 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1425 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1427 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1429 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1430 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1432 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1434 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1435 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1437 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1439 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1441 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1443 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1445 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1447 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1449 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1450 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1452 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1454 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1457 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1458 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1459 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1460 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1463 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1465 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1467 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1469 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1470 (write-all): Removed.
1471 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1472 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1474 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1476 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1477 `proc-documentation'
1479 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1480 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1481 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1482 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1483 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1484 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1485 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1488 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1490 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1492 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1494 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1495 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1496 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1499 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1501 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1502 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1503 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1504 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1505 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1506 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1507 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1509 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1511 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1512 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1514 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1516 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1517 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1519 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1521 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1522 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1523 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1524 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1525 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1526 delete-if! when iterating.
1528 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1530 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1532 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1534 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1536 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1538 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1539 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1540 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1541 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1543 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1545 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1546 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1548 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1550 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1551 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1552 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1553 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1555 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1557 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1558 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1560 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1562 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1563 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1565 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1567 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1570 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1572 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1573 source of the numerous very short changes.
1575 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1577 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1580 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1583 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1585 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1588 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1590 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1591 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1593 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1595 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1598 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1600 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1601 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1602 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1604 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1606 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1607 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1608 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1609 Narazaki for this change.
1611 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1613 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1614 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1617 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1618 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1620 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1622 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1623 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1625 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1627 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1628 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1629 use define-public to export from the module.
1631 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1633 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1634 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1635 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1637 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1639 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1641 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1643 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1644 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1646 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1648 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1650 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1652 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1654 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1656 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1657 long_long uniform vectors.
1659 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1661 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1662 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1664 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1666 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1667 script to create generated files like this one.
1669 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1671 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1672 available before using getpw and getuid.
1673 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1674 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1676 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1677 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1678 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1680 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1681 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1682 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1684 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1685 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1687 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1689 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1691 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1692 than 'exit-debugger.
1694 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1695 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1697 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1699 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1701 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1702 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1703 ("position"): New command.
1704 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1705 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1706 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1707 to return a valid state.)
1708 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1710 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1712 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1713 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1716 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1718 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1719 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1721 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1723 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1725 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1727 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1728 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1730 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1731 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1732 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1734 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1737 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1739 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1740 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1742 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1744 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1746 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1747 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1748 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1749 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1751 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1754 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1755 both forward and backward views of the stack
1756 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1757 Use selector `frame-number';
1758 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1759 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1761 Use readline conditionally.
1763 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1765 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1766 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1767 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1769 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1770 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1773 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1775 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1777 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1779 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1781 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1783 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1785 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1786 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1787 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1788 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1789 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1790 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1791 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1792 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1793 libguile-config-stamp.
1794 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1795 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1796 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1797 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1798 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1800 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1802 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1803 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1804 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1806 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1807 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1808 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1809 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1812 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1814 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1816 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1818 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1820 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1821 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1823 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1825 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1826 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1827 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1828 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1829 objects starting with '#/'.
1831 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1833 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1834 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1835 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1836 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1837 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1838 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1840 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1841 module-modified): New procedures.
1842 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1843 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1845 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1847 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1850 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1852 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1853 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1854 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1856 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1859 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1861 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1862 at multiple calls to read.
1863 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1864 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1865 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1866 continued-lines prompt.
1868 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1869 reading expressions.
1871 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1873 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1874 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1876 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1878 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1879 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1882 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1884 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1885 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1887 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1888 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1889 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1890 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1891 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1894 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1896 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1897 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1899 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1901 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1902 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1903 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1904 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1906 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1908 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1910 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1911 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1912 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1915 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1917 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1918 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1919 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1920 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1921 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1922 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1923 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1924 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1925 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1926 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1927 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1929 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1931 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1932 peeked from the stream.
1933 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1934 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1935 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1937 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1939 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1940 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1942 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1944 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1945 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1946 exiting repl with single control-D.
1948 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1950 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1951 error catching loop after quit received.
1952 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1954 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1955 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1956 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1958 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1959 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1961 * popen.scm: new file.
1963 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1965 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1966 (reverse-iota): removed.
1968 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1970 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1971 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1973 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1975 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1976 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1977 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1978 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1979 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1981 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1983 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1985 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1986 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1988 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1989 Guile's module system.
1991 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1993 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1994 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1995 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1996 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1997 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1998 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2000 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2001 '() when the condition is false.
2003 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2005 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2007 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2009 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2011 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2013 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2014 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2015 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2017 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2019 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2020 argument order for hash-fold.
2022 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2024 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2026 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2027 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2029 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2030 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2031 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2032 has been added to the load path).
2034 Use try-load-module.
2036 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2038 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2039 module between system and user state.
2041 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2043 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2045 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2048 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2050 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2051 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2052 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2054 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2056 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2057 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2058 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2059 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2060 stack frame encountered.
2062 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2063 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2064 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2065 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2068 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2069 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2070 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2071 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2074 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2075 define-module switches:
2077 (define-module (foo)
2080 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2083 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2084 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2085 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2086 module it is a system frame.
2088 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2089 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2090 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2091 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2092 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2094 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2095 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2096 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2097 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2098 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2099 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2101 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2102 status of a module.;
2103 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2104 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2106 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2107 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2108 closure to the module.
2110 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2112 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2114 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2116 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2118 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2120 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2122 Fix from Russ McManus:
2123 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2124 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2125 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2126 either an optional or required value.
2128 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2130 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2132 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2133 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2135 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2136 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2137 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2138 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2140 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2142 * optargs.scm: New file.
2143 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2144 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2146 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2148 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2149 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2150 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2152 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2154 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2155 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2158 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2160 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2162 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2164 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2165 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2166 applied to the module itself.
2168 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2170 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2172 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2173 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2175 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2177 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2179 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2181 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2183 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2185 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2186 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2188 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2190 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2191 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2192 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2193 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2194 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2195 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2196 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2198 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2200 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2201 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2203 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2205 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2206 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2209 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2211 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2213 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2215 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2217 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2219 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2220 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2221 adapt to the new hooks.
2223 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2225 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2226 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2227 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2229 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2230 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2232 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2233 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2234 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2235 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2236 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2237 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2238 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2239 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2240 first to register linked modules.
2242 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2243 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2244 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2246 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2247 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2248 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2249 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2251 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2253 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2256 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2257 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2258 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2260 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2262 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2263 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2264 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2266 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2268 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2269 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2270 result of the last form.
2272 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2274 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2277 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2279 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2280 readline-set!: New options interface.
2282 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2284 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2286 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2287 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2289 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2291 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2292 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2294 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2296 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2297 interactive session.
2298 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2300 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2301 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2303 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2305 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2307 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2309 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2310 read line was empty.
2312 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2314 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2315 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2317 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2319 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2321 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2322 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2323 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2325 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2326 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2328 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2329 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2330 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2332 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2333 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2334 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2335 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2336 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2337 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2339 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2341 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2342 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2344 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2346 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2347 and short vectors #h(...).
2349 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2351 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2352 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2353 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2355 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2357 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2358 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2359 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2361 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2363 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2364 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2366 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2367 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2368 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2369 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2371 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2373 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2376 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2377 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2378 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2379 context with traps enabled.
2381 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2383 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2385 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2387 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2389 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2390 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2391 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2392 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2393 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2395 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2397 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2398 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2400 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2402 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2404 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2406 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2408 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2410 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2412 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2414 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2415 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2417 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2419 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2420 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2421 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2422 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2425 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2426 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2427 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2429 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2431 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2432 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2433 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2434 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2435 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2436 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2437 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2439 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2441 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2443 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2445 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2446 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2447 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2448 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2449 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2450 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2452 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2454 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2455 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2456 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2459 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2461 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2463 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2465 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2467 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2469 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2472 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2474 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2476 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2478 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2479 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2481 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2483 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2484 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2485 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2486 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2488 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2489 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2491 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2493 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2495 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2497 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2498 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2501 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2502 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2504 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2505 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2506 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2508 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2510 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2512 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2514 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2515 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2517 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2519 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2521 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2523 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2524 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2526 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2528 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2531 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2533 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2534 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2536 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2538 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2540 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2542 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2545 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2547 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2548 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2549 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2550 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2551 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2554 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2556 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2557 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2558 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2560 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2562 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2564 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2565 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2567 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2569 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2570 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2571 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2572 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2573 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2574 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2575 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2578 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2580 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2583 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2585 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2586 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2587 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2588 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2589 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2590 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2592 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2594 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2595 usefully so they will work from a script.
2597 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2599 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2600 neighborhood of the record code.
2602 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2604 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2605 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2606 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2607 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2609 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2611 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2612 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2613 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2615 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2617 Add support for readline function.
2618 * readline.scm: New module.
2619 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2620 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2621 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2623 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2624 repl-reader to use them.
2625 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2627 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2629 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2631 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2632 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2634 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2636 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2637 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2638 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2640 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2642 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2643 #f, abort terminates the process.
2644 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2645 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2647 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2649 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2650 print-state, throw it away.
2652 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2654 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2657 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2659 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2660 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2661 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2662 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2664 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2665 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2667 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2669 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2671 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2673 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2674 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2675 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2676 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2677 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2679 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2680 distribution and installation.
2681 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2683 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2685 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2687 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2689 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2690 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2691 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2693 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2694 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2697 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2699 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2701 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2703 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2705 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2706 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2707 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2708 field a separate argument.
2710 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2712 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2714 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2716 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
2720 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2722 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
2724 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2726 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
2727 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2728 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2729 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2730 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2731 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2733 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2734 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2735 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2736 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2737 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2740 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2742 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
2744 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2746 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
2747 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
2749 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2751 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2753 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2754 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2755 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2756 expansion inside the slib module.
2758 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2760 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
2761 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
2762 (let): New core form.

2766 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
2768 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
2769 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2770 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2772 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2773 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has

2790 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
2792 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)

2796 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2798 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2799 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2800 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2801 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2802 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2804 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2805 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2806 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2808 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2809 the syncase interface.
2811 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2813 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2814 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2815 workings of the current module system).
2817 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2819 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2820 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

2829 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2831 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2832 according to the following priorities:
2833 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2834 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2836 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2837 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2838 (new-interpreter): New function.
2840 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2841 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2842 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).

2860 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2861 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

2872 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2875 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when

2882 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2884 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2886 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2887 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2889 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2890 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2892 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2894 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2896 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2897 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
2898 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.

2902 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.

2916 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2918 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2919 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2920 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2922 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2923 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2926 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2927 order to narrow it correctly.
2928 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

2941 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2942 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2944 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2946 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2947 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2948 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2950 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2952 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2955 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2957 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
2958 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
2959 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
2960 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.

2963 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2965 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
2966 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
2969 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.

2982 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2983 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2984 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2985 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2986 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2987 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2989 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2990 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2991 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2992 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2994 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2996 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2997 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2998 sending in bug reports.
2999 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3000 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3001 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3002 display a warning if the two are different.
3003 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3004 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3005 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

3013 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3014 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3016 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3017 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3018 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3019 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3020 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3021 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3024 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3025 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3028 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3029 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3031 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3034 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3037 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

3042 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3044 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3045 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3047 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3049 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3050 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3051 to support printing of structures.
3052 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3053 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3054 commented out printing code.
3055 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3056 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".

3065 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
3066 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3067 during call to scm-style-repl.
3069 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3071 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3072 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3073 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3074 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3075 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3077 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3079 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3080 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3083 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3085 * regex.scm: New file.
3086 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.

3094 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3096 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3098 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3101 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3103 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3104 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3105 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3107 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3109 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3110 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3113 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3115 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.

3119 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3121 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3123 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3124 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3127 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3129 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3130 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3131 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3133 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3135 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3136 the Scheme code like code yet.
3137 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3139 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3141 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3142 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3143 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3145 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3147 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3149 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules

3154 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3156 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3158 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3160 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3161 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3162 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3164 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3166 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3167 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3168 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.

3198 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3200 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3201 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3203 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3205 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,

3210 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3211 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3212 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3213 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3215 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3217 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,

3231 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3233 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3234 Don't define read-sharp.
3236 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3237 (read-sharp): removed.
3238 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3239 case_i or read-sharp arguments.

3263 * (exit): alias for quit.
3265 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3267 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3268 return the quit args.
3269 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3270 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3271 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3273 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3275 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3277 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3279 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3280 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3282 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3283 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3285 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3286 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3289 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3291 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3293 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3294 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3295 Change hooks to use these functions.
3297 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3298 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3299 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3301 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3302 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3303 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3304 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3305 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3306 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3307 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3310 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3311 and exit-frame exceptions.
3313 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3314 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3315 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3316 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3317 result; otherwise display "> ".
3318 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3320 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3321 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3322 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3323 repository version runnable.
3325 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3327 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3328 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3329 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3330 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3331 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3332 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3334 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3336 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3337 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3339 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3341 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3342 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3344 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3346 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3348 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3350 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3353 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3355 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3356 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3358 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3360 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3363 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3365 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3366 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3368 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3370 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3372 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3373 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3374 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3375 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3376 dynamic linking of modules.
3377 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3378 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3380 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3382 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3384 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3386 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3389 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3390 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3393 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3395 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3396 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3397 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3399 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3401 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3402 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3405 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3407 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3408 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3409 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3411 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3413 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3414 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3415 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3416 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3418 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3419 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3420 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3421 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3422 (such as the-scm-module).
3424 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3426 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3429 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3431 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3432 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3433 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3435 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3437 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3438 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3439 function, use it accordingly.
3441 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3443 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3444 function of no arguments.
3445 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3446 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3447 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3448 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3449 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3450 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3451 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3452 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3454 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3456 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3457 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3459 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3461 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3462 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3463 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3464 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3465 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3467 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3470 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3471 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3472 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3473 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3475 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3477 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3479 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3480 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3481 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3483 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3486 Added `before-read-hook'.
3488 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3490 (provide): New function.
3492 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3495 (backtrace): New function.
3497 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3498 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3499 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3500 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3501 is found in operator position in a frame.
3503 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3506 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3507 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3508 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3510 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3512 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3514 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3516 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3518 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3520 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3522 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3523 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3525 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3526 so they'll get distributed.
3528 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3529 should see as little clutter as possible.
3530 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3531 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3532 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3534 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3535 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3536 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3537 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3538 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3539 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3540 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3541 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3542 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3543 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3545 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3546 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3548 * test.scm: New file.
3550 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3551 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3552 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3554 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3555 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3557 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3559 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3560 call %load-announce.
3562 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3564 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3565 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3566 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3568 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3570 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3572 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3573 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3574 SCSH (which this isn't).
3576 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3578 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3580 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3582 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3583 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3584 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3586 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3587 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3588 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3589 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3592 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3594 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3596 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3598 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3599 error-catching-loop.
3600 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3601 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3602 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3604 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3605 error-catching-loop.
3607 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3609 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3610 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3611 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3612 should be '(), not #f.
3614 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3615 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3617 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3619 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3620 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3623 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3625 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3626 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3627 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3628 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3630 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3632 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3634 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3636 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3638 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3639 throw-handler-default.
3640 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3642 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3644 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3645 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3647 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3649 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3650 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3651 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3652 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3654 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3656 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3657 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3658 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3659 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3661 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3662 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3663 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3664 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3667 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3669 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3671 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3674 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3677 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3679 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3681 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3682 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3684 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3686 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3688 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3690 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3692 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3693 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3694 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3695 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3696 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3698 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3699 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3700 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3701 they seem redundant.
3702 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3703 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3704 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3705 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3706 directly files starting with "/").
3707 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3708 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3710 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3712 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3714 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3715 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3716 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3717 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3718 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3719 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3720 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3721 robust to just do it in the C code.
3723 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3725 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3726 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3727 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3728 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3729 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3731 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3733 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3734 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3735 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3737 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3739 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3740 system-error, not every kind of error.
3741 (scm-error): new procedure.
3743 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3745 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3747 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3749 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3750 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3751 of args are supplied.
3752 (%%system-errors): removed.
3753 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3754 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3755 %%handle-system-error.
3756 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3757 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3758 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3759 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3761 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3763 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3764 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3765 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3766 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3768 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3770 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3771 the empty list if they are #f.
3772 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.

3776 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.

3787 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3788 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3789 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3790 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3791 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.

3803 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3804 initialize %load-path.

3826 in the Makefile directly.
3827 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3829 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and

3866 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3867 (manifest): Deleted.
3868 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a

3871 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3873 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
