44
45 * slib.scm (%system-define): Removed.
46
47 (define): Changed to use define-private instead of
48 %system-define.
49
50 * boot-9.scm (define-private): Undid my changes from 2002-11-16
51 until Guile supports hygienic macros.
52
53 2002-11-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
54
55 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it
56 has been removed from the core.
57
58 2002-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
59

64
65 2002-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

74
75 2002-11-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
76
77 * format.scm (format): Use 'monitor' properly. Not the definition
78 needs to be restricted, the actual function needs to be.
79
80 2002-11-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
81
82 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): Fix to "simplification"

92 code.
93
94 * debugger/command-loop.scm (read-and-dispatch-command): Import
95 set-readline-prompt dynamically if we need to. (Previous
96 arrangement didn't work if this module was loaded before (ice-9
97 readline).)
98
99 2002-11-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
100
101 * format.scm (format): Wrap a monitor around format:format since
102 it is not thread-safe.
103
104 2002-10-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
105
106 * threads.scm (%thread-handler): Explicitely return '#f'. This

134 trace-finish, step, next): New debugger commands for continuing
135 execution from a breakpoint.
136

146
147 2002-10-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
148
149 * threads.scm (%thread-handler): Do not call unmask-signals, that
150 should be unnecessary now.
151
152 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
153
154 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in

202
203 * slib.scm (make-exchanger): Added. Thanks to Clinton Ebadi!

262 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
263
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.
267
268 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
269
270 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

281
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!
286
287 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
288
289 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
290
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.
294
295 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
296
297 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have
298 these in the core.
299
300 2001-11-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
301
302 * boot-9.scm (turn-on-debugging): New function, to be used by

308 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
309
310 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
311 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
312 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
313
314 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
315 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,
316 expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, ls.scm, mapping.scm,
317 null.scm, optargs.scm, poe.scm, popen.scm, pretty-print.scm,
318 q.scm, r5rs.scm, rdelim.scm, regex.scm, runq.scm, safe-r5rs.scm,
319 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.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
323 exporting bindings.
324
325 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
326
327 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,

329
330 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
331
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.)
336
337 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
338
339 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,

341 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
342 builtin-variable.
343
344 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
345
346 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.

356 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Reference compile-psyntax.scm in
357 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
358
359 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
360
361 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
362 the `arglist' procedure property.
363 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
364 present a more detailed argument list.
365
366 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
367
368 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
369

374 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
375
376 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
377
378 (feature?): Deprecated.
379
380 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,
381 eval-in-module, split-c-module-name,
382 (convert-c-registered-modules, registered-modules,
383 register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation, init-dynamic-module,
384 dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
385 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
386 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
387 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
388
389 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
390 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
391
392 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated
393 functionality.
394
395 * format.scm: Remove deprecated definition of format that was
396 needed to trick export.

399

407
408 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
409
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.
413
414 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
415
416 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
417 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
418
419 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
420
421 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
422

424
425 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
426 Touch up docstrings.
427 Augment commentary.
428
429 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
430
431 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
432 last-command fluid is not yet set.
433
434 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
435
436 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
437
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.
441
442 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
443
444 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
445 handle :use-syntax correctly.
446
447 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
448
449 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
450 compile-psyntax.scm.
451
452 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
453
454 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
455 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
456 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
457 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
458 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
459
460 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
461
462 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
463 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
464 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
465
466 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
467
468 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
469 primitives. Thanks Neil!
470
471 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
472
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'.
477
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.
481
482 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
483 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
484
485 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
486
487 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
488 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
489
490 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
491
492 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
493 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
494
495 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
496
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 #*.
500
501 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
502
503 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
504
505 * tags.scm: Removed file.
506

509 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
510 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
511
512 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
513 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
514 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
515 New.
516
517 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
518
519 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
520 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
521
522 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
523
524 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
525 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
526
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.)
530
531 2001-06-25 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>

566
567 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
568
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.
572
573 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
574
575 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
576 include-deprecated-features is true.
577
578 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
579
580 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
581 unknown objects.
582
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!
586
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
590 Köppe!
591
592 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
593
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
603 variables.
604 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
605
606 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
607 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
608
609 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
610
611 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
612 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
613
614 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
615
616 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
617
618 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
619
620 Added exception notice to all files.
621
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.
625
626 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
627
628 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
629 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
630 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
631 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
632 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
633 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
634 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
635 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
636 message.
637 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
638 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
639
640 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
641
642 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
643 fix command so that it works.
644
645 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
646 to access unbound variables.
647
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.
653
654 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
655
656 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
657 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
658 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
659 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
660 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
661 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
662 argument for process-define-module.
663 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
664 arguments for process-use-modules.
665 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
666
667 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
668
669 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
670 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
671 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
672 module.
673
674 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
675 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
676 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
677
678 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
679
680 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
681

696
697 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
698
699 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
700 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
701
702 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
703 `display'.
704
705 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
706
707 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.

717 set-current-module.
718 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
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.
724 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
725 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
726

730 cleanup; nfc.
731 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
732 now accepts arg; update callers.
733 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
734 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
735
736 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
737 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
738 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
739 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
740 `search-documentation-files'.
741 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
742 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.

753
754 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,

764
765 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
766
767 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
768
769 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
770 the module obarray.
771 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
772
773 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
774 the magical undefined value.

776 the default default for bindings.
777
778 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to

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
791 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
792 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
793 `set-current-module' call.
794 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
795 set-current-module. It is redefined later.
796
797 * debug.scm: Use `module-set!' instead of `variable-set!' to set
798 insert `debug-options' into the-root-module.

824 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): Abstraction maintenance: Use
825 `module-public-interface'.
826 (resolve-interface): Extend to handle selection and renaming in spec.

1061 port implementation extracted from guile-readline/readline.scm.
1062

1111
1112 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Use `primitive-eval' instead of

1117

1120
1121 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1122
1123 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
1124 operating systems.

1141 conveniently define a group of option interface functions.

1144 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
1145
1146 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1147
1148 * boot-9.scm: don't import (ice-9 rdelim) here. it's done
1149 in C for now.
1150 * rdelim.scm: export the C primitives too.
1151 * documentation.scm: use (ice-9 rdelim).
1152
1153 2001-01-21 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>

1159 * boot-9.scm: import (ice-9 rdelim) for backwards compatibility,
1160 for now.
1161 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
1162 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
1163
1164 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1165
1166 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1167 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
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.
1173
1174 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1175
1176 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1177 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1178
1179 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1180
1181 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1182 any more.
1183
1184 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1185
1186 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1187 the-root-module.
1188
1189 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1190
1191 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1192
1193 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1194
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.
1208
1209 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1210
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
1215 scm-style-repl.
1216
1217 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1218
1219 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1220 and open-output-pipe.
1221
1222 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1223
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.
1232
1233 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1234
1235 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1242 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1243
1244 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): regexp-exec does not
1245 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
1246 patch.
1247
1248 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1249
1250 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to

1256 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1257 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1258

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.
1264
1265 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1266

1276 Convert first argument to a string.
1277
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.)

1294 `symbol-append'.
1295 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1296 args.
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
1301 `symbol->string'.
1302 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS

1329
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.)
1335
1336 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.

1338 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1382 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1383 Mikael for the suggestion.
1384
1385 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1386
1387 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called

1410
1411 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',

1459 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1460 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1461 (help): Rewritten.
1462
1463 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1464
1465 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1466
1467 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1468
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.
1473
1474 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1475
1476 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1477 `proc-documentation'
1478
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
1486 getter...)
1487
1488 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1489
1490 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1491
1492 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1493
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
1497 closure.
1498
1499 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1500
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).
1508
1509 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1510
1511 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1512 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1513
1514 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1515
1516 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1517 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1518
1519 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1520
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.
1527
1528 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1529
1530 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1531
1532 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1533
1534 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1535
1536 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1537
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.
1542
1543 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1544
1545 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1546 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1547
1548 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1549
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.)
1554
1555 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1556
1557 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1558 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1559
1560 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1561
1562 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1563 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1564
1565 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1566
1567 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1568 Dirk Hermann!
1569
1570 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1571
1572 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1573 source of the numerous very short changes.
1574
1575 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1576
1577 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1578 public.
1579
1580 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1581 info pages.
1582
1583 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1584
1585 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1586 from slib docs.
1587
1588 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1589
1590 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1591 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1592
1593 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1594
1595 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1596 to string-append.
1597
1598 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1599
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.
1603
1604 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1605
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.
1610
1611 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1612
1613 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1614 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1615 %S.
1616
1617 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1618 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1619
1620 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1621
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.
1624
1625 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1626
1627 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1628 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1629 use define-public to export from the module.
1630
1631 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1632
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!
1636
1637 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1638
1639 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1640
1641 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1642
1643 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1644 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1645
1646 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1647
1648 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1649
1650 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1651
1652 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1653
1654 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1655
1656 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1657 long_long uniform vectors.
1658
1659 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1660
1661 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1662 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1663
1664 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1665
1666 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1667 script to create generated files like this one.
1668
1669 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1670
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
1675 check for stat.
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
1679 available.
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.
1683
1684 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1685 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1686
1687 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1688
1689 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1690
1691 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1692 than 'exit-debugger.
1693
1694 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1695 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1696
1697 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1698
1699 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1700
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.
1709
1710 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1711
1712 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1713 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1714 Badros.)
1715
1716 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1717
1718 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1719 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1720
1721 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1722
1723 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1724
1725 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1726
1727 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1728 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1729
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
1733 expression.
1734 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1735 Handle errors.
1736
1737 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1738
1739 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1740 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1741
1742 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1743
1744 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1745
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.
1750
1751 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1752 argument.
1753
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.
1760 Use (ice-9 debug).
1761 Use readline conditionally.
1762
1763 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1764
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.
1768
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
1771 Jan Nieuwenhuizen.)
1772
1773 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1774
1775 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1776
1777 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1778
1779 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1780
1781 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1782
1783 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1784
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.
1799
1800 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1801
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.)
1805
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
1810 readline.
1811
1812 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1813
1814 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1815
1816 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1817
1818 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1819
1820 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1821 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1822
1823 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1824
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 '#/'.
1830
1831 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1832
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
1839 `observer-id'.
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.
1844
1845 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1846
1847 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1848 defines.
1849
1850 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1851
1852 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1853 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1854 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1855
1856 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1857 position.
1858
1859 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1860
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.
1867
1868 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1869 reading expressions.
1870
1871 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1872
1873 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1874 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1875
1876 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1877
1878 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1879 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1880 Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1881
1882 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1883
1884 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1885 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1886
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
1892 instead of a port.
1893
1894 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1895
1896 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1897 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1898
1899 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1900
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.
1905
1906 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1907
1908 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1909
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
1913 an alist.
1914
1915 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1916
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.
1928
1929 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1930
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.
1936
1937 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1938
1939 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1940 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1941
1942 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1943
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.
1947
1948 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1949
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.
1953
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.
1957
1958 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1959 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1960 boot-9.scm.
1961 * popen.scm: new file.
1962
1963 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1964
1965 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1966 (reverse-iota): removed.
1967
1968 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1969
1970 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1971 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1972
1973 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1974
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).
1980
1981 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1982
1983 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1984
1985 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1986 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1987
1988 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1989 Guile's module system.
1990
1991 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1992 changes:
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
1999 modern CL behavior.
2000 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2001 '() when the condition is false.
2002
2003 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2004
2005 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2006
2007 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2008
2009 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2010
2011 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2012
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.
2016
2017 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2018
2019 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2020 argument order for hash-fold.
2021
2022 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2023
2024 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2025 resolve-module.
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).
2028
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).
2033
2034 Use try-load-module.
2035
2036 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2037
2038 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2039 module between system and user state.
2040
2041 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2042
2043 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2044
2045 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2046 definition.
2047
2048 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2049
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.
2053
2054 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2055
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.
2061
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
2066 list).]
2067
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
2072 please tell me!]
2073
2074 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2075 define-module switches:
2076
2077 (define-module (foo)
2078 :no-backtrace)
2079
2080 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2081 modules.
2082
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.
2087
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!)
2093
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.)
2100
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.
2105
2106 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2107 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2108 closure to the module.
2109
2110 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2111
2112 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2113
2114 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2115
2116 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2117
2118 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2119
2120 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2121
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.
2127
2128 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2129
2130 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2131
2132 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2133 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2134
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.
2139
2140 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2141
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.
2145
2146 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2147
2148 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2149 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2150 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2151
2152 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2153
2154 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2155 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2156 for isn't loaded.
2157
2158 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2159
2160 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2161
2162 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2163
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.
2167
2168 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2169
2170 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2171
2172 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2173 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2174
2175 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2176
2177 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2178
2179 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2180
2181 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2182
2183 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2184
2185 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2186 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2187
2188 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2189
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.
2197
2198 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2199
2200 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2201 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2202
2203 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2204
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
2207 static libraries.
2208
2209 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2210
2211 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2212
2213 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2214
2215 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2216
2217 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2218
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.
2222
2223 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2224
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
2228 code.
2229 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2230 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2231
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.
2241
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.
2245
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'.
2250
2251 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2252 to use from C:
2253 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2254 libguile/feature.c.
2255
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.
2259
2260 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2261
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?'.
2265
2266 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2267
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.
2271
2272 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2273
2274 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2275 syncase.scm.
2276
2277 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2278
2279 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2280 readline-set!: New options interface.
2281
2282 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2283
2284 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2285
2286 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2287 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2288
2289 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2290
2291 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2292 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2293
2294 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2295
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.
2299
2300 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2301 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2302
2303 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2304
2305 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2306
2307 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2308
2309 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2310 read line was empty.
2311
2312 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2313
2314 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2315 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2316
2317 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2318
2319 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2320 problem. Duh.
2321 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2322 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2323 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2324
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)
2327 into...
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.
2331
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
2338 psyntax.ss.
2339 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2340
2341 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2342 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2343
2344 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2345
2346 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2347 and short vectors #h(...).
2348
2349 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2350
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.)
2354
2355 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2356
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.
2360
2361 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2362
2363 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2364 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2365
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!)
2370
2371 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2372
2373 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2374 trace flag.
2375
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.
2380
2381 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2382
2383 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2384 module.
2385 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2386
2387 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2388
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.
2394
2395 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2396
2397 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2398 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2399
2400 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2401
2402 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2403
2404 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2405
2406 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2407
2408 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2409
2410 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2411
2412 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2413
2414 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2415 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2416
2417 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2418
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
2423 Archibald.)
2424
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.)
2428
2429 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2430
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.)
2438
2439 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2440
2441 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2442
2443 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2444
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.
2451
2452 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2453
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
2457 Steven G. Johnson.)
2458
2459 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2460
2461 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2462
2463 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2464
2465 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2466
2467 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2468
2469 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2470 be completed.
2471
2472 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2473
2474 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2475
2476 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2477
2478 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2479 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2480
2481 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2482
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
2487 transformer.
2488 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2489 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2490
2491 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2492
2493 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2494
2495 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2496
2497 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2498 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2499 completion.
2500
2501 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2502 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2503
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'.)
2507
2508 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2509
2510 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2511
2512 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2513
2514 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2515 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2516
2517 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2518
2519 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2520
2521 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2522
2523 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2524 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2525
2526 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2527
2528 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2529 obsolete.
2530
2531 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2532
2533 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2534 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2535
2536 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2537
2538 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2539
2540 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2541
2542 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2543 Stachowiak.)
2544
2545 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2546
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
2552 threads.
2553
2554 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2555
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'.
2559
2560 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2561
2562 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2563
2564 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2565 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2566
2567 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2568
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
2576 to go here.
2577
2578 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2579
2580 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2581 is now a fluid.
2582
2583 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2584
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.
2591
2592 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2593
2594 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2595 usefully so they will work from a script.
2596
2597 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2598
2599 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2600 neighborhood of the record code.
2601
2602 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2603
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.
2608
2609 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2610
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.
2614
2615 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2616
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
2622 anything.
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.
2626
2627 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2628
2629 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2630
2631 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2632 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2633
2634 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2635
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.
2639
2640 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2641
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.
2646
2647 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2648
2649 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2650 print-state, throw it away.
2651
2652 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2653
2654 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2655 `0'.
2656
2657 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2658
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
2663 user field).
2664 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2665 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2666
2667 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2668
2669 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2670
2671 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2672
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
2678 boot-9.scm.
2679 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2680 distribution and installation.
2681 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2682
2683 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2684
2685 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2686
2687 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2688
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).
2692
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
2695 symbol.
2696
2697 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2698
2699 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2700
2701 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2702
2703 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2704
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.
2709
2710 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2711
2712 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2713
2714 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2715
2716 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
2717 vicinity;
2718 Provide defmacro.
2719
2720 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2721
2722 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
2723
2724 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2725
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
2732 registered.
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
2738 link a .so-file.
2739
2740 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2741
2742 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
2743
2744 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2745
2746 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
2747 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
2748
2749 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2750
2751 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2752
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.
2757
2758 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2759 constructors.
2760 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
2761 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
2762 (let): New core form.
2763 (if): Removed from core language.
2764 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
2765 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
2766 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
2767
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
2771 source.
2772 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2773 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2774 been loaded.
2775
2776 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2777
2778 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2779 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2780 `use-syntax'.
2781 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
2782
2783 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
2784 (make-module): Modified initialization.
2785 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
2786 mutator for module-associated transformer.
2787 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
2788 `scm:eval-transformer'.
2789 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
2790 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
2791 module.
2792 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
2793
2794 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2795
2796 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2797
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.
2803
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

2809 the syncase interface.
2810
2811 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2812
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).
2816
2817 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2818
2819 * psyntax.ss: Updated.

2823 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2824
2825 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
2826 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.

2828
2829 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2830
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
2835 3. tcl bindings
2836 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2837 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2838 (new-interpreter): New function.
2839
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).
2843

2859
2860 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2861 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
2862 source!
2863
2864 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2865
2866 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2867 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
2868 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
2869 symbols matching regexp.
2870
2871 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
2872 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2873 in stack-ref).
2874
2875 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2876 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;

2883
2884 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2885
2886 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2887 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2888
2889 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2890 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2891
2892 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2893
2894 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2895
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.

2907
2908 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
2909 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.
2910
2911 Sat Aug 16 18:44:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2912
2913 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
2914 cstime.
2915
2916 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2917
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).
2921
2922 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2923 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2924 the top.
2925
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.
2929
2930 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2931
2932 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
2933 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
2934
2935 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2936
2937 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
2938
2939 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2940
2941 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2942 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2943
2944 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2945
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.
2949
2950 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2951
2952 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2953 automatically.
2954
2955 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2956
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.
2961 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
2962
2963 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2964
2965 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
2966 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
2967 a default of /.
2968
2969 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
2970
2971 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2972
2973 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
2974 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
2975 notation, instead of #/ notation.
2976
2977 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
2978 make-regexp.
2979
2980 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2981
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.)
2988
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.)
2993
2994 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2995
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.
3006
3007 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3008
3009 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
3010
3011 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3012
3013 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3014 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3015
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
3022 that's okay.
3023
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
3026 regexp interface.
3027
3028 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3029 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3030
3031 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3032 function names.
3033
3034 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3035 fixes.
3036
3037 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3038
3039 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
3040 ../configure.in.
3041
3042 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3043
3044 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3045 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3046
3047 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3048
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".
3057

3059
3060 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
3061
3062 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3063
3064 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
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.
3068
3069 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3070
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.
3076
3077 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3078
3079 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3080 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3081 (ice-9 regex).
3082
3083 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3084
3085 * regex.scm: New file.
3086 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3087 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3088
3089 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3090
3091 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3092 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3093 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3094 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3095
3096 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3097
3098 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3099 in 1997.
3100
3101 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3102
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.
3106
3107 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3108
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
3111 here.
3112
3113 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3114
3115 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3116
3117 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3118
3119 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3120
3121 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3122
3123 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3124 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3125 fixes this too.
3126
3127 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3128
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.
3132
3133 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3134
3135 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3136 the Scheme code like code yet.
3137 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3138
3139 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3140
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.
3144
3145 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3146
3147 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3148 use-modules macro
3149 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3150 can't be found.
3151
3152 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3153
3154 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3155
3156 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3157
3158 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3159
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.
3163
3164 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3165
3166 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3167 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.

3173 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3174
3175 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3176
3177 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3178 functions.
3179
3180 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3181
3182 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3183

3185
3186 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3187 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3188
3189 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3190
3191 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3192 instead of in libguile.
3193 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3194 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3195
3196 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3197

3204
3205 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3206 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3207
3208 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3209
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.)
3214
3215 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3216
3217 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3218 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3219
3220 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3221
3222 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3223
3224 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3225
3226 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3227 keywords and symbols.
3228
3229 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>

3231 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3232
3233 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3234 Don't define read-sharp.
3235
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.
3240
3241 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3242
3243 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3244
3245 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3246 primitive procedure.)
3247
3248 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3249 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3250
3251 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3252
3253 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3254
3255 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3256
3257 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3258
3259 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3260
3261 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3262 read gets EOF.
3263 * (exit): alias for quit.
3264
3265 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3266
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.
3272
3273 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3274
3275 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3276
3277 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3278
3279 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3280 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3281
3282 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3283 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3284
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
3287 of handlers.
3288
3289 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3290
3291 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3292
3293 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3294 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3295 Change hooks to use these functions.
3296
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
3300 the source! :-)
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
3308 traced.
3309
3310 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3311 and exit-frame exceptions.
3312
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>.)
3319
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.
3324
3325 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3326
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.)
3333
3334 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3335
3336 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3337 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3338 and eval.
3339 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3340 "defined?".
3341 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3342 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3343
3344 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3345
3346 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3347
3348 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3349
3350 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3351 %read-sharp layer.
3352
3353 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3354
3355 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3356 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3357
3358 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3359
3360 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3361 backtrace.c.)
3362
3363 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3364
3365 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3366 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3367
3368 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3369
3370 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3371
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.
3379
3380 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3381
3382 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3383
3384 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3385
3386 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3387 that's what it is.
3388
3389 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3390 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3391 was false.
3392
3393 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3394
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.
3398
3399 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3400
3401 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3402 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3403 yet.
3404
3405 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3406
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!.
3410
3411 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3412
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.
3417
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).
3423
3424 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3425
3426 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3427 %search-load-path.
3428
3429 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3430
3431 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3432 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3433 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3434
3435 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3436
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.
3440
3441 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3442
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*.
3453
3454 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3455
3456 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3457 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3458
3459 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3460
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.
3466
3467 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3468 `*features*'.
3469
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'.
3474
3475 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3476
3477 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3478
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.
3482
3483 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3484 error.
3485
3486 Added `before-read-hook'.
3487
3488 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3489
3490 (provide): New function.
3491
3492 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3493 in backtraces.
3494
3495 (backtrace): New function.
3496
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.
3502
3503 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3504 by default.
3505
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.)
3509
3510 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3511
3512 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3513
3514 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3515
3516 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3517
3518 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3519
3520 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3521
3522 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3523 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3524
3525 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3526 so they'll get distributed.
3527
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.
3533
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
3544 that are not.
3545 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3546 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3547
3548 * test.scm: New file.
3549
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.
3553
3554 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3555 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3556
3557 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3558 work now.
3559 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3560 call %load-announce.
3561
3562 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3563
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
3567 components.
3568 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3569
3570 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3571
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).
3575
3576 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3577
3578 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3579
3580 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3581
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
3585 these.
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
3590 save-stack.
3591
3592 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3593
3594 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3595
3596 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3597
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.
3603
3604 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3605 error-catching-loop.
3606
3607 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3608
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.
3613
3614 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3615 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3616
3617 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3618
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
3621 error-signal.
3622
3623 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3624
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.
3629
3630 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3631
3632 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3633
3634 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3635
3636 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3637
3638 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3639 throw-handler-default.
3640 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3641 reported.
3642 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3643 acro.
3644 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3645 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3646
3647 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3648
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.
3653
3654 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3655
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
3660 ...))
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
3665 file-is-directory?
3666
3667 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3668
3669 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3670
3671 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3672 distribution.
3673
3674 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3675 `switch-repl'.
3676
3677 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3678
3679 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3680
3681 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3682 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3683
3684 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3685
3686 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3687
3688 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3689
3690 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3691
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.
3697
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.
3709
3710 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3711
3712 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3713
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.
3722
3723 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3724
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.
3730
3731 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3732
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).
3736
3737 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3738
3739 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3740 system-error, not every kind of error.
3741 (scm-error): new procedure.
3742
3743 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3744
3745 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3746
3747 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3748
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.
3760
3761 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3762
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").
3767
3768 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3769
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.
3773
3774 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3775
3776 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3777
3778 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3779 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3780 aborting, just the key and subr.
3781 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3782 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3783 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3784
3785 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3786
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.
3792
3793 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3794
3795 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3796 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3797 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3798 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3799
3800 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3801
3802 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3803 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3804 initialize %load-path.
3805
3806 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3807 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3808
3809 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3810
3811 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3812 Add the directory named after the version number.
3813 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3814 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3815 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3816 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3817 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3818 (install): Create the above directories.
3819 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3820 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3821
3822 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3823
3824 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3825 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3826 in the Makefile directly.
3827 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3828 for these.
3829 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3830 aux_files.
3831 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3832 here, where people expect to find them.
3833
3834 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3835
3836 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3837 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3838
3839 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3840
3841 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3842
3843 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->

3849 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3850
3851 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->

3855
3856 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3857 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3858 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).

3860 (%open-file): removed.
3861 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3862 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3863
3864 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3865
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
3869 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3870
3871 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3872
3873 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3874 now that they throw errors directly.
3875 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3876 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
