3 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bug fixed.
5 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
7 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
10 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
12 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
13 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
14 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
15 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
16 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
18 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
20 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
21 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
22 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
24 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
26 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
27 primitives. Thanks Neil!
29 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
31 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
32 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
33 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
34 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
36 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
37 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
38 since there aren't definitions for them.
40 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
41 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
43 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
45 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
46 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
48 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
50 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
51 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
53 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
55 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
56 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
57 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
59 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
61 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
63 * tags.scm: Removed file.
65 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
67 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
68 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
70 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
71 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
72 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
75 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
77 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
78 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
80 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
82 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
83 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
85 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
86 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
87 evaluator trap options.)

99 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
101 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
103 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
104 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
106 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
109 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
110 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
111 No longer require `pretty-print'.
113 (slib:error): Delete.
114 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
116 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
121 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
125 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
127 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
128 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
129 rdelim) module. See below.
131 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
133 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
134 include-deprecated-features is true.
136 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
138 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
141 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
142 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
143 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
145 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
146 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
147 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
150 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
152 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
153 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
154 variable, not just a visible one.
155 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
156 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
157 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
158 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
159 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
160 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
162 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
164 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
165 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
167 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
169 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
170 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
172 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
174 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
176 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
178 Added exception notice to all files.
180 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
181 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
182 importing bindings once in a while.
184 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
186 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
187 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
188 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
189 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
190 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
191 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
192 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
193 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
195 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
196 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
198 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
200 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
201 fix command so that it works.
203 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
204 to access unbound variables.
206 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
207 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
208 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
209 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
210 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
212 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
214 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
215 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
216 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
217 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
218 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
219 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
220 argument for process-define-module.
221 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
222 arguments for process-use-modules.
223 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
225 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
227 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
228 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
229 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
232 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
233 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
234 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
236 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.

263 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
265 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
266 * match.scm: Likewise.
267 * expect.scm: Likewise.
268 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
270 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
272 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
274 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
276 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
277 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
278 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
279 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
280 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
281 element list when adding "." to it.
282 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
283 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
285 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
287 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
289 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
290 now accepts arg; update callers.
291 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
292 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
294 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
295 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
296 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
297 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
298 `search-documentation-files'.
299 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
300 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
301 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
303 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
304 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
306 (find-documentation): Delete.

312 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
313 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.

327 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
329 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
331 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
332 the magical undefined value.

338 (root-module-closure): Removed.
339 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
340 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
341 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
342 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
343 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
344 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.

346 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
347 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
348 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
349 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
350 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
351 `set-current-module' call.
352 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
353 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

393 (process-use-modules): Arg is now `module-interface-specs',
394 which is passed through to `resolve-interface' as before; nfc.
395 (named-module-use!, top-repl): Abstraction maintenance: Use

580 2001-03-10 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
582 * buffered-input.scm (make-buffered-input-port): New, more general
583 buffered input procedure. Does not assume that a newline
584 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
586 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
587 make-buffered-input-port.
589 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
591 * match.scm: Don't export defstruct. Use (unquote defstruct) instead.
593 2001-03-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
595 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Added rule for producing psyntax.pp.

599 * match.scm: export defstruct.
601 2001-03-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
603 * psyntax.ss: Added FSF copyright notice. Added a notice of
604 changes in order to comply with paragraph 2a of the GPL. (Thanks
607 2001-03-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
609 * buffered-input.scm (make-line-buffered-input-port): Don't set
610 the continuation flag for leading whitespace. Thanks to Dirk
611 Herrmann for the suggestion.
613 2001-03-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
615 * optargs.scm (rest-arg->keyword-binding-list): Use "'()" instead
618 * buffered-input.scm: New file, with guts of line buffered input
619 port implementation extracted from guile-readline/readline.scm.
621 2001-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
623 * stack-catch.scm: New file.
625 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added stack-catch.scm.
627 2001-03-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
629 * boot-9.scm, rdelim.scm: Use "'()" instead of "()" in all places
630 where the empty list is meant.
632 2001-02-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
634 * boot-9.scm (save-stack): Use `primitive-eval' for stack
635 cutting. Makes backtraces work again! Also added a reference to
636 save-stack from the place in the repl where the primitive-eval
639 2001-02-25 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
641 * match.scm: New file, including Andrew K. Wright's pattern matcher.
642 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added match.scm.
644 2001-02-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
646 * boot-9.scm (eval-when, eval-case): Renamed `eval-when' to
647 `eval-case', everywhere.
649 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
651 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
652 `interaction-evironment'.
653 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
655 (eval-when): New macro.
656 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
657 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
658 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
660 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the
662 (define-module): Simply call `process-define-module' without any
663 fuss (but only on top-level).
664 (named-module-use!): New function.
665 (top-repl): Do not use `define-module'. Use equivalent low-level
668 2001-02-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
670 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Use `primitive-eval' instead of
672 (define-public): Do not use `eval'.
674 2001-02-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
676 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Display the warning to the
677 `current-error-port'.
679 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
681 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
684 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to
685 `and-let-star.scm'. Updated module name as well.
686 * and-let-star-compat.scm: New file, installed as `and-let*.scm'.
687 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced "and-let*.scm" with
689 (install-data-local): Install "and-let-star-compat.scm" as
690 "and-let*.scm", ignoring errors.
691 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute `and-let-star-compat.scm'.
693 2001-01-26 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
695 This patch fixes a problem reported by Martin Grabmueller about
696 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
698 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to
699 conveniently define a group of option interface functions.
701 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
702 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
704 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
706 * boot-9.scm: don't import (ice-9 rdelim) here. it's done
708 * rdelim.scm: export the C primitives too.
709 * documentation.scm: use (ice-9 rdelim).
711 2001-01-21 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
713 * rdelim.scm: new file implementing module (ice-9 rdelim).
714 * ice-9.scm (scm-line-incrementors read-line! read-delimited!
715 read-delimited read-line): moved to rdelim.scm.
716 scm-line-incrementors is not exported.
717 * boot-9.scm: import (ice-9 rdelim) for backwards compatibility,
719 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
720 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
722 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
724 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
725 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
726 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
727 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
728 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
729 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
730 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
732 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
734 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
735 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
737 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
739 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
742 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
744 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
747 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
749 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
751 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
753 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
754 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
755 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
756 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
757 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
758 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
759 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
760 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
761 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
762 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
763 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
764 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
765 make-shared-substring.
767 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
769 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
770 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
771 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
772 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
775 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
777 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
778 and open-output-pipe.
780 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
782 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
783 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
784 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
785 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
786 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
787 Pirotte for the bug report).
788 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
789 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
791 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
793 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
794 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
796 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
798 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
800 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
802 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): regexp-exec does not
803 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
806 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
808 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
811 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
813 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
814 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
815 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
817 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
818 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
819 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
820 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
821 actual documentation entries themselves.
823 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
825 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
827 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
829 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
831 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
833 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
834 Convert first argument to a string.
836 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
837 getter-and-setter-syntax,
838 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
839 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
841 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
843 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
845 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
847 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
849 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
851 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
853 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
855 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
856 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
858 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
860 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
863 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

881 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
883 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
886 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
888 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
889 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
890 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
891 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
892 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
894 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
896 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
898 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
899 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
901 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
904 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
905 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
906 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
907 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
909 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
911 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.

914 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
916 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
917 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
919 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
921 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
922 definition of module-type.
924 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
926 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
928 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
930 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
931 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
933 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
935 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
937 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
939 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
940 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
941 Mikael for the suggestion.
943 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
945 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
946 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
948 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
950 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
953 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
955 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
957 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
959 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
960 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
963 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
964 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
967 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
969 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
970 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
972 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
973 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
974 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
976 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
978 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
980 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
982 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
983 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
985 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
987 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
988 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
990 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
992 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
993 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
995 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
997 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
999 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1001 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1003 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1005 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1007 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1008 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1010 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1012 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1015 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1016 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1017 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1018 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1021 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1023 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1025 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1027 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1028 (write-all): Removed.
1029 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1030 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1032 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1034 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1035 `proc-documentation'
1037 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1038 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1039 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1040 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1041 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1042 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1043 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1046 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1048 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1050 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1052 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1053 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1054 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1057 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1059 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1060 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1061 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1062 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1063 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1064 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1065 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1067 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1069 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1070 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1072 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1074 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1075 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1077 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1079 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1080 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1081 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1082 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1083 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1084 delete-if! when iterating.
1086 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1088 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1090 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1092 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1094 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1096 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1097 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1098 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1099 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1101 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1103 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1104 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1106 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1108 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1109 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1110 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1111 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1113 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1115 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1116 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1118 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1120 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1121 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1123 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1125 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1128 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1130 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1131 source of the numerous very short changes.
1133 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1135 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1138 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1141 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1143 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1146 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1148 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1149 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1151 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1153 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1156 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1158 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1159 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1160 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1162 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1164 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1165 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1166 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1167 Narazaki for this change.
1169 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1171 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1172 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1175 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1176 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1178 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1180 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1181 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1183 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1185 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1186 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1187 use define-public to export from the module.
1189 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1191 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1192 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1193 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1195 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1197 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1199 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1201 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1202 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1204 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1206 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1208 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1210 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1212 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1214 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1215 long_long uniform vectors.
1217 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1219 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1220 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1222 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1224 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1225 script to create generated files like this one.
1227 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1229 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1230 available before using getpw and getuid.
1231 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1232 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1234 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1235 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1236 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1238 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1239 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1240 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1242 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1243 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1245 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1247 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1249 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1250 than 'exit-debugger.
1252 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1253 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1255 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1257 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1259 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1260 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1261 ("position"): New command.
1262 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1263 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1264 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1265 to return a valid state.)
1266 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1268 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1270 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1271 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1274 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1276 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1277 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1279 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1281 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1283 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1285 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1286 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1288 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1289 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1290 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1292 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1295 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1297 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1298 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1300 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1302 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1304 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1305 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1306 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1307 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1309 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1312 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1313 both forward and backward views of the stack
1314 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1315 Use selector `frame-number';
1316 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1317 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1319 Use readline conditionally.
1321 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1323 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1324 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1325 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1327 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1328 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1331 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1333 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1335 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1337 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1339 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1341 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1343 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1344 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1345 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1346 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1347 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1348 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1349 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1350 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1351 libguile-config-stamp.
1352 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1353 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1354 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1355 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1356 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1358 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1360 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1361 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1362 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1364 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1365 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1366 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1367 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1370 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1372 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1374 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1376 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1378 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1379 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1381 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1383 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1384 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1385 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1386 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1387 objects starting with '#/'.
1389 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1391 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1392 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1393 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1394 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1395 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1396 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1398 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1399 module-modified): New procedures.
1400 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1401 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1403 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1405 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1408 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1410 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1411 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1412 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1414 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1417 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1419 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1420 at multiple calls to read.
1421 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1422 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1423 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1424 continued-lines prompt.
1426 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1427 reading expressions.
1429 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1431 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1432 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1434 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1436 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1437 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1440 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1442 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1443 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1445 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1446 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1447 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1448 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1449 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1452 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1454 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1455 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1457 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1459 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1460 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1461 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1462 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1464 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1466 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1468 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1469 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1470 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1473 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1475 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1476 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1477 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1478 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1479 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1480 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1481 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1482 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1483 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1484 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1485 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1487 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1489 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1490 peeked from the stream.
1491 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1492 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1493 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1495 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1497 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1498 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1500 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1502 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1503 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1504 exiting repl with single control-D.
1506 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1508 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1509 error catching loop after quit received.
1510 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1512 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1513 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1514 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1516 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1517 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1519 * popen.scm: new file.
1521 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1523 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1524 (reverse-iota): removed.
1526 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1528 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1529 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1531 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1533 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1534 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1535 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1536 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1537 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1539 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1541 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1543 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1544 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1546 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1547 Guile's module system.
1549 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1551 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1552 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1553 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1554 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1555 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1556 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1558 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1559 '() when the condition is false.
1561 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1563 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1565 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1567 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1569 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1571 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1572 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1573 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1575 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1577 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1578 argument order for hash-fold.
1580 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1582 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1584 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1585 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1587 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1588 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1589 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1590 has been added to the load path).
1592 Use try-load-module.
1594 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1596 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1597 module between system and user state.
1599 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1601 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1603 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1606 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1608 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1609 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1610 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1612 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1614 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1615 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1616 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1617 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1618 stack frame encountered.
1620 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1621 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1622 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1623 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1626 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1627 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1628 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1629 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
1632 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
1633 define-module switches:
1635 (define-module (foo)
1638 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
1641 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
1642 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
1643 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
1644 module it is a system frame.
1646 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
1647 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
1648 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
1649 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
1650 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
1652 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
1653 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
1654 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
1655 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
1656 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
1657 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
1659 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
1660 status of a module.;
1661 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
1662 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
1664 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
1665 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
1666 closure to the module.
1668 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
1670 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1672 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
1674 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1676 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
1678 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1680 Fix from Russ McManus:
1681 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
1682 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
1683 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
1684 either an optional or required value.
1686 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1688 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
1690 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
1691 of the '() key, not `rest'.
1693 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
1694 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
1695 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
1696 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1698 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1700 * optargs.scm: New file.
1701 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
1702 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
1704 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1706 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
1707 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
1708 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1710 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1712 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
1713 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
1716 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1718 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1720 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1722 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
1723 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
1724 applied to the module itself.
1726 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1728 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
1730 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
1731 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
1733 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1735 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
1737 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1739 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
1741 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1743 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
1744 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
1746 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1748 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
1749 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
1750 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
1751 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
1752 among BINDINGS is referenced.
1753 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
1754 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
1756 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1758 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
1759 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
1761 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1763 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
1764 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
1767 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1769 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
1771 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1773 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
1775 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1777 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
1778 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
1779 adapt to the new hooks.
1781 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1783 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
1784 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
1785 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
1787 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
1788 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
1790 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
1791 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
1792 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
1793 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
1794 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
1795 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
1796 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
1797 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
1798 first to register linked modules.
1800 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
1801 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
1802 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
1804 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
1805 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
1806 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
1807 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
1809 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
1811 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
1814 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
1815 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
1816 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
1818 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1820 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
1821 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
1822 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
1824 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1826 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
1827 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
1828 result of the last form.
1830 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1832 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
1835 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
1837 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
1838 readline-set!: New options interface.
1840 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
1842 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1844 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
1845 at the end of boot-9.scm.
1847 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1849 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
1850 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1852 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1854 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
1855 interactive session.
1856 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
1858 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
1859 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
1861 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1863 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
1865 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1867 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
1868 read line was empty.
1870 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1872 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
1873 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
1875 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
1877 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
1879 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
1880 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
1881 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
1883 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
1884 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
1886 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
1887 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
1888 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
1890 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
1891 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
1892 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
1893 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
1894 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
1895 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
1897 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1899 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1900 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1902 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1904 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
1905 and short vectors #h(...).
1907 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1909 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
1910 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
1911 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
1913 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1915 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
1916 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
1917 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
1919 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1921 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
1922 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
1924 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
1925 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
1926 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
1927 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
1929 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1931 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
1934 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
1935 order to allow the empty list as arg.
1936 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
1937 context with traps enabled.
1939 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1941 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
1943 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
1945 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1947 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
1948 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
1949 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
1950 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
1951 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
1953 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1955 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
1956 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
1958 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1960 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
1962 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1964 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
1966 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1968 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
1970 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1972 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
1973 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
1975 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1977 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
1978 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
1979 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
1980 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
1983 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
1984 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
1985 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
1987 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1989 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
1990 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
1991 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
1992 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
1993 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
1994 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
1995 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1997 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1999 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2001 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2003 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2004 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2005 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2006 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2007 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2008 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2010 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2012 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2013 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2014 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2017 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2019 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2021 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2023 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2025 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2027 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2030 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2032 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2034 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2036 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2037 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2039 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2041 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2042 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2043 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2044 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2046 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2047 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2049 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2051 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2053 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2055 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2056 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2059 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2060 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2062 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2063 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2064 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2066 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2068 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2070 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2072 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2073 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2075 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2077 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2079 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2081 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2082 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2084 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2086 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2089 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2091 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2092 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2094 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2096 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2098 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2100 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2103 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2105 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2106 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2107 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2108 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2109 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2112 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2114 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2115 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2116 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2118 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2120 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2122 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2123 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2125 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2127 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2128 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2129 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2130 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2131 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2132 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2133 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2136 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2138 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2141 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2143 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2144 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2145 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2146 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2147 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2148 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2150 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2152 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2153 usefully so they will work from a script.
2155 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2157 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2158 neighborhood of the record code.
2160 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2162 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2163 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2164 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2165 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2167 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2169 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2170 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2171 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2173 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2175 Add support for readline function.
2176 * readline.scm: New module.
2177 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2178 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2179 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2181 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2182 repl-reader to use them.
2183 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2185 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2187 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2189 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2190 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2192 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2194 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2195 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2196 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2198 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2200 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2201 #f, abort terminates the process.
2202 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2203 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2205 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2207 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2208 print-state, throw it away.
2210 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2212 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of

2220 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2222 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2223 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2225 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2227 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2229 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2231 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2232 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2233 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2234 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2235 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2237 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2238 distribution and installation.
2239 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

2245 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2247 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2248 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2249 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2251 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2252 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2255 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2257 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2259 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2261 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2263 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2264 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2265 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2266 field a separate argument.
2268 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2270 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2272 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2274 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
2278 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2280 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.

2285 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2286 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2287 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2288 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2289 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2291 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2292 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2293 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2294 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2295 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2298 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2300 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!

2307 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2309 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2311 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2312 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2313 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2314 expansion inside the slib module.
2316 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2318 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
2319 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.

2324 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
2326 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
2327 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2328 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2330 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2331 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2334 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2336 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2337 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2339 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
2341 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
2342 (make-module): Modified initialization.
2343 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
2344 mutator for module-associated transformer.

2346 `scm:eval-transformer'.
2347 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
2348 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current

2354 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2356 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2357 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2358 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2359 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2360 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2362 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2363 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2364 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2366 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2367 the syncase interface.
2369 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2371 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2372 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2373 workings of the current module system).
2375 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2377 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2378 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
2381 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2383 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
2384 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
2385 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
2387 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2389 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2390 according to the following priorities:
2391 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2392 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2394 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2395 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2396 (new-interpreter): New function.
2398 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2399 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2400 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2402 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2404 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2406 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2408 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
2410 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2412 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
2414 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
2416 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2418 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2419 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
2422 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2424 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2425 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
2426 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
2427 symbols matching regexp.
2429 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
2430 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2433 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2434 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
2435 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
2436 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
2437 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2439 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2440 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2442 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2444 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2445 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2447 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2448 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2450 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2452 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2454 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2455 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
2456 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
2458 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
2460 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
2461 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
2462 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
2464 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2466 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
2467 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.

2471 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
2474 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2476 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2477 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2478 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2480 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2481 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2484 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2485 order to narrow it correctly.
2486 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
2488 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2490 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
2491 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
2493 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2495 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
2497 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2499 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2500 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2502 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2504 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2505 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2506 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2508 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2510 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2513 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2515 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
2516 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
2517 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
2518 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
2519 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
2521 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2523 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
2524 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
2527 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
2529 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2531 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
2532 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
2533 notation, instead of #/ notation.
2535 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
2538 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2540 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2541 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2542 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2543 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2544 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2545 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2547 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2548 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2549 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2550 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2552 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2554 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2555 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2556 sending in bug reports.
2557 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2558 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2559 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2560 display a warning if the two are different.
2561 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2562 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2563 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

2567 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
2569 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2571 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2572 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2574 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2575 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2576 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2577 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2578 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2579 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2582 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2583 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2586 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2587 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2589 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2592 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2595 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2597 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
2600 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2602 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2603 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2605 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2607 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2608 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2609 to support printing of structures.
2610 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2611 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2612 commented out printing code.
2613 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2614 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
2616 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2618 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
2620 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2622 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
2623 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2624 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2625 during call to scm-style-repl.
2627 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2629 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2630 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2631 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
2632 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
2633 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
2635 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2637 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
2638 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
2641 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
2643 * regex.scm: New file.
2644 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
2645 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2647 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2649 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
2650 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
2651 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
2652 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
2654 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2656 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
2659 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2661 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
2662 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
2663 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
2665 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2667 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
2668 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
2671 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2673 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2675 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2677 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2679 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2681 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
2682 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
2685 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2687 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
2688 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
2689 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
2691 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2693 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
2694 the Scheme code like code yet.
2695 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
2697 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2699 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
2700 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
2701 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
2703 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2705 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
2707 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
2710 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2712 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
2714 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2716 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
2718 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
2719 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
2720 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
2722 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2724 Get 'make dist' to work again.
2725 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
2726 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
2728 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
2730 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
2731 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2733 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2735 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
2738 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2740 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
2742 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2744 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
2745 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
2747 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2749 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
2750 instead of in libguile.
2751 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
2752 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
2754 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2756 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
2758 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
2759 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
2761 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2763 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
2764 sockaddr:port): new functions.
2766 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2768 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
2769 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
2770 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
2771 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
2773 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2775 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
2776 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
2778 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2780 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
2782 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2784 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
2785 keywords and symbols.
2787 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2789 * slib.scm: update read usage.
2791 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
2792 Don't define read-sharp.
2794 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
2795 (read-sharp): removed.
2796 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
2797 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
2799 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2801 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
2803 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
2804 primitive procedure.)
2806 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
2807 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
2809 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2811 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
2813 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2815 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
2817 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2819 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
2821 * (exit): alias for quit.
2823 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2825 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
2826 return the quit args.
2827 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
2828 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
2829 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
2831 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
2833 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2835 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
2837 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
2838 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
2840 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
2841 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
2843 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
2844 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
2847 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2849 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
2851 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
2852 (add-hooks!): New macro.
2853 Change hooks to use these functions.
2855 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
2856 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
2857 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
2859 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
2860 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
2861 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
2862 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
2863 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
2864 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
2865 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
2868 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
2869 and exit-frame exceptions.
2871 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
2872 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
2873 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
2874 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
2875 result; otherwise display "> ".
2876 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
2878 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
2879 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
2880 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
2881 repository version runnable.
2883 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2885 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
2886 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
2887 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
2888 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
2889 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
2890 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
2892 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2894 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
2895 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
2897 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
2899 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
2900 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
2902 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2904 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
2906 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2908 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
2911 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2913 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
2914 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
2916 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2918 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
2921 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2923 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
2924 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
2926 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2928 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
2930 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
2931 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
2932 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
2933 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
2934 dynamic linking of modules.
2935 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
2936 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
2938 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2940 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
2942 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2944 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
2947 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
2948 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
2951 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2953 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
2954 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
2955 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
2957 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2959 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
2960 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
2963 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2965 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
2966 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
2967 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
2969 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2971 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
2972 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
2973 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
2974 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
2976 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
2977 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
2978 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
2979 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
2980 (such as the-scm-module).
2982 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2984 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
2987 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
2989 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
2990 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
2991 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
2993 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2995 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
2996 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
2997 function, use it accordingly.
2999 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3001 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3002 function of no arguments.
3003 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3004 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3005 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3006 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3007 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3008 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3009 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3010 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3012 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3014 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3015 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3017 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3019 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3020 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3021 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3022 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3023 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3025 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3028 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3029 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3030 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3031 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3033 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3035 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3037 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3038 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3039 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3041 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3044 Added `before-read-hook'.
3046 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3048 (provide): New function.
3050 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3053 (backtrace): New function.
3055 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3056 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3057 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3058 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3059 is found in operator position in a frame.
3061 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3064 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3065 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3066 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3068 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3070 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3072 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3074 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3076 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3078 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3080 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3081 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3083 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3084 so they'll get distributed.
3086 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3087 should see as little clutter as possible.
3088 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3089 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3090 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3092 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3093 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3094 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3095 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3096 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3097 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3098 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3099 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3100 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3101 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3103 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3104 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3106 * test.scm: New file.
3108 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3109 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3110 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3112 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3113 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3115 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3117 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3118 call %load-announce.
3120 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3122 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3123 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3124 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3126 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3128 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3130 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3131 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3132 SCSH (which this isn't).
3134 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3136 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3138 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3140 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3141 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3142 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3144 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3145 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3146 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3147 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3150 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3152 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3154 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3156 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3157 error-catching-loop.
3158 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3159 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3160 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3162 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3163 error-catching-loop.
3165 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3167 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3168 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3169 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3170 should be '(), not #f.
3172 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3173 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3175 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3177 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3178 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3181 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3183 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3184 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3185 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3186 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3188 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3190 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3192 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3194 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3196 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3197 throw-handler-default.
3198 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3200 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3202 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3203 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3205 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3207 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3208 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3209 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3210 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3212 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3214 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3215 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3216 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3217 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3219 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3220 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3221 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3222 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3225 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3227 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3229 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3232 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3235 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3237 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3239 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3240 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3242 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3244 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3246 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3248 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3250 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3251 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3252 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3253 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3254 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3256 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3257 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3258 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3259 they seem redundant.
3260 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3261 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3262 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3263 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3264 directly files starting with "/").
3265 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3266 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3268 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3270 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3272 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3273 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3274 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3275 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3276 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3277 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3278 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3279 robust to just do it in the C code.
3281 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3283 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3284 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3285 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3286 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3287 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3289 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3291 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3292 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3293 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3295 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3297 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3298 system-error, not every kind of error.
3299 (scm-error): new procedure.
3301 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3303 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3305 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3307 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3308 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3309 of args are supplied.
3310 (%%system-errors): removed.
3311 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3312 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3313 %%handle-system-error.
3314 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3315 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3316 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3317 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3319 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3321 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3322 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3323 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3324 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3326 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3328 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3329 the empty list if they are #f.
3330 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3332 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3334 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3336 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3337 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3338 aborting, just the key and subr.
3339 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3340 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3341 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3343 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3345 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3346 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3347 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3348 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3349 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3351 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3353 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3354 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3355 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3356 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3358 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3360 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3361 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3362 initialize %load-path.
3364 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3365 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3367 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3369 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3370 Add the directory named after the version number.
3371 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3372 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3373 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3374 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3375 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3376 (install): Create the above directories.
3377 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3378 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3380 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3382 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3383 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3384 in the Makefile directly.
3385 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3387 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3389 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3390 here, where people expect to find them.
3392 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3394 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3395 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3397 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3399 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3401 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3402 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3404 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3406 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
3407 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3409 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
3410 weak-key-hash-table.
3412 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3414 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3415 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3416 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
3417 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
3418 (%open-file): removed.
3419 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3420 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3422 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3424 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3425 (manifest): Deleted.
3426 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
3427 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3429 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3431 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3432 now that they throw errors directly.
3433 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3434 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
3436 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3438 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
3440 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
3442 * The more things change...
