1 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
3 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
4 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
5 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
6 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
7 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
8 Pirotte for the bug report).
9 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
10 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
12 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
14 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
15 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
17 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
19 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
21 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
23 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): regexp-exec does not
24 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
27 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
29 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
32 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
34 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
35 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
36 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
38 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
39 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
40 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
41 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
42 actual documentation entries themselves.
44 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

55 Convert first argument to a string.
57 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
58 getter-and-setter-syntax,
59 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
60 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
62 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
64 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
66 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

70 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
72 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
74 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
76 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
77 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never

81 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
84 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

102 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
104 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
107 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
109 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
110 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
111 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
112 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
113 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
115 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
117 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
119 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
120 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
122 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
125 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
126 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
127 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
128 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
130 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
132 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
133 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
135 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
137 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
138 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
140 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
142 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
143 definition of module-type.
145 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
147 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
149 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
151 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
152 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
155 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
157 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
159 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
161 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
162 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
163 Mikael for the suggestion.
165 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
167 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
168 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
170 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
172 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
175 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
177 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
179 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
181 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
182 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
185 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
186 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
189 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
191 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
192 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
194 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
195 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
196 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
198 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
200 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
202 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
204 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
205 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
207 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
209 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
210 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
212 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
214 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
215 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
217 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
219 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
221 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.

227 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
229 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
230 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
232 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
234 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
237 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
238 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
239 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
240 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
243 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).

247 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
249 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
250 (write-all): Removed.
251 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
252 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
254 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
256 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
259 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
260 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
261 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
262 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
263 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
264 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
265 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
268 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
270 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
272 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
274 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
275 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
276 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
279 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
281 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
282 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
283 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
284 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
285 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
286 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
287 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
289 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
291 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
292 accept complex numbers as parameter.
294 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
296 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
297 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
299 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
301 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
302 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
303 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
304 instead of remove-if when iterating.
305 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
306 delete-if! when iterating.
308 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
310 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
312 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
314 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
316 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
318 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
319 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
320 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
321 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
323 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
325 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
326 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
328 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
330 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
331 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
332 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
333 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
335 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
337 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
338 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
340 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
342 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
343 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
345 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
347 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
350 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
352 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
353 source of the numerous very short changes.
355 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
357 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
360 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
363 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
365 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
368 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
370 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
371 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
373 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
375 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
378 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
380 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
381 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
382 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
384 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
386 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
387 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
388 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
389 Narazaki for this change.
391 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
393 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
394 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
397 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
398 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
400 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
402 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
403 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
405 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
407 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
408 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
409 use define-public to export from the module.
411 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
413 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
414 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
415 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
417 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
419 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
421 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
423 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
424 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
426 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
428 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
430 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
432 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
434 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
436 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
437 long_long uniform vectors.
439 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
441 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
442 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
444 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
446 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
447 script to create generated files like this one.
449 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
451 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
452 available before using getpw and getuid.
453 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
454 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
456 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
457 check for .guile, instead of stat.
458 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
460 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
461 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
462 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
464 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
465 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
467 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
469 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
471 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
474 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
475 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
477 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
479 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

484 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
485 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
486 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
487 to return a valid state.)
488 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
490 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
492 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
493 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
496 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
498 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
499 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
501 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
503 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
505 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
507 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
508 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
510 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
511 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
512 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
514 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
517 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
519 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
520 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
522 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
524 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
526 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
527 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
528 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
529 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
531 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
534 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
535 both forward and backward views of the stack
536 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
537 Use selector `frame-number';
538 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
539 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
541 Use readline conditionally.
543 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
545 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
546 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
547 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
549 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
550 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
553 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
555 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
557 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
559 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
561 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
563 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
565 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
566 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
567 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
568 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
569 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
570 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
571 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
572 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
573 libguile-config-stamp.
574 * version.scm.in: Delete.
575 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
576 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
577 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
578 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
580 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
582 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
583 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
584 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
586 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
587 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
588 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
589 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
592 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
594 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
596 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
598 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
600 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
601 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
603 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
605 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
606 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
607 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
608 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
609 objects starting with '#/'.
611 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
613 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
614 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
615 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
616 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
617 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
618 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
620 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
621 module-modified): New procedures.
622 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
623 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
625 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
627 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
630 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
632 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
633 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
634 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
636 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
639 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
641 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
642 at multiple calls to read.
643 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
644 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
645 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
646 continued-lines prompt.
648 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
651 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
653 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
654 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
656 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
658 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
659 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
662 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
664 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
665 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
667 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
668 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
669 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
670 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
671 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
674 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
676 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
677 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
679 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
681 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
682 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
683 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
684 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
686 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
688 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
690 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
691 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
692 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
695 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
697 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
698 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
699 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
700 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
701 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
702 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
703 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
704 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
705 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
706 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
707 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
709 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
711 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
712 peeked from the stream.
713 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
714 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
715 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
717 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
719 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
720 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
722 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
724 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
725 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
726 exiting repl with single control-D.
728 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
730 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
731 error catching loop after quit received.
732 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
734 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
735 primitive exit if non-interactive.
736 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
738 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
739 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
741 * popen.scm: new file.
743 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
745 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
746 (reverse-iota): removed.
748 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
750 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
751 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
753 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
755 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
756 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
757 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
758 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
759 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
761 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
763 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
765 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
766 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
768 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
769 Guile's module system.
771 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
773 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
774 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
775 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
776 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
777 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
778 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
780 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
781 '() when the condition is false.
783 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
785 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
787 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
789 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
791 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
793 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
794 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
795 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
797 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
799 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
800 argument order for hash-fold.
802 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
804 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
806 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
807 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
809 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
810 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
811 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
812 has been added to the load path).
816 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
818 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
819 module between system and user state.
821 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
823 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
825 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
828 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
830 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
831 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
832 system can create a wrapper class for it.
834 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
836 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
837 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
838 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
839 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
840 stack frame encountered.
842 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
843 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
844 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
845 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
848 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
849 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
850 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
851 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
854 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
855 define-module switches:
860 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
863 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
864 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
865 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
866 module it is a system frame.
868 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
869 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
870 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
871 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
872 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
874 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
875 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
876 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
877 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
878 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
879 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
881 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
883 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
884 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
886 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
887 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
888 closure to the module.
890 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
892 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
894 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
896 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
898 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
900 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
902 Fix from Russ McManus:
903 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
904 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
905 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
906 either an optional or required value.
908 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
910 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
912 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
913 of the '() key, not `rest'.
915 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
916 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
917 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
918 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
920 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
922 * optargs.scm: New file.
923 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
924 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
926 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
928 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
929 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
930 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
932 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
934 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
935 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
938 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
940 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
942 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
944 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
945 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
946 applied to the module itself.
948 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
950 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
952 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
953 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
955 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
957 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
959 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
961 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
963 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
965 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
966 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
968 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
970 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
971 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
972 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
973 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
974 among BINDINGS is referenced.
975 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
976 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
978 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
980 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
981 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
983 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
985 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
986 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
989 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
991 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
993 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
995 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
997 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
999 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
1000 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
1001 adapt to the new hooks.
1003 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1005 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
1006 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
1007 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
1009 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
1010 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
1012 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
1013 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
1014 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
1015 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
1016 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
1017 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
1018 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
1019 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
1020 first to register linked modules.
1022 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
1023 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
1024 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
1026 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
1027 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
1028 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
1029 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
1031 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
1033 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
1036 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
1037 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
1038 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
1040 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1042 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
1043 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
1044 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
1046 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1048 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
1049 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
1050 result of the last form.
1052 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1054 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
1057 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
1059 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
1060 readline-set!: New options interface.
1062 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
1064 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1066 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
1067 at the end of boot-9.scm.
1069 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1071 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
1072 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1074 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1076 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
1077 interactive session.
1078 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
1080 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
1081 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
1083 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1085 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
1087 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1089 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
1090 read line was empty.
1092 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1094 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
1095 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
1097 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
1099 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
1101 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
1102 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
1103 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
1105 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
1106 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
1108 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
1109 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
1110 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
1112 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
1113 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
1114 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
1115 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
1116 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
1117 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
1119 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1121 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1122 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1124 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1126 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
1127 and short vectors #h(...).
1129 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1131 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
1132 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
1133 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
1135 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1137 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
1138 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
1139 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
1141 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1143 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
1144 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
1146 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
1147 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
1148 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
1149 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
1151 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1153 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
1156 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
1157 order to allow the empty list as arg.
1158 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
1159 context with traps enabled.
1161 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1163 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
1165 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
1167 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1169 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
1170 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
1171 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
1172 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
1173 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
1175 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1177 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
1178 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
1180 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1182 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
1184 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1186 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
1188 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1190 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
1192 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1194 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
1195 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
1197 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1199 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
1200 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
1201 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
1202 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
1205 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
1206 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
1207 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
1209 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1211 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
1212 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
1213 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
1214 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
1215 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
1216 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
1217 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1219 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1221 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
1223 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1225 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
1226 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
1227 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
1228 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
1229 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
1230 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
1232 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1234 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
1235 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
1236 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
1239 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1241 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
1243 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1245 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
1247 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1249 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
1252 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1254 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
1256 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1258 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
1259 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
1261 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1263 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
1264 similar in use to `use-modules'.
1265 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
1266 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
1268 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
1269 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
1271 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1273 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
1275 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1277 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
1278 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
1281 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
1282 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
1284 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
1285 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
1286 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
1288 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
1290 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1292 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
1294 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
1295 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
1297 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1299 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
1301 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1303 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
1304 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
1306 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
1308 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
1311 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
1313 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
1314 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
1316 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
1318 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
1320 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1322 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
1325 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1327 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
1328 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
1329 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
1330 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
1331 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
1334 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
1336 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
1337 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
1338 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
1340 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
1342 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
1344 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
1345 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
1347 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
1349 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
1350 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
1351 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
1352 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
1353 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
1354 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
1355 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
1358 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1360 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
1363 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
1365 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
1366 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
1367 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
1368 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
1369 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
1370 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
1372 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1374 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
1375 usefully so they will work from a script.
1377 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1379 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
1380 neighborhood of the record code.
1382 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1384 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
1385 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
1386 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
1387 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
1389 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1391 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
1392 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
1393 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1395 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1397 Add support for readline function.
1398 * readline.scm: New module.
1399 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
1400 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
1401 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
1403 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
1404 repl-reader to use them.
1405 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
1407 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
1409 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1411 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
1412 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
1414 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1416 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
1417 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
1418 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
1420 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1422 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
1423 #f, abort terminates the process.
1424 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
1425 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
1427 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1429 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
1430 print-state, throw it away.
1432 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
1434 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
1437 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
1439 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
1440 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
1441 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
1442 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
1444 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
1445 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
1447 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1449 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
1451 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1453 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
1454 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
1455 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
1456 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
1457 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
1459 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
1460 distribution and installation.
1461 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1463 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1465 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
1467 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1469 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
1470 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
1471 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
1473 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
1474 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
1477 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1479 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
1481 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
1483 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1485 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
1486 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
1487 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
1488 field a separate argument.
1490 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
1492 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1494 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
1496 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
1500 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1502 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
1504 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1506 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
1507 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
1508 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
1509 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
1510 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
1511 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
1513 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
1514 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
1515 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
1516 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
1517 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
1520 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1522 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
1524 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1526 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
1527 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
1529 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1531 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
1533 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
1534 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
1535 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
1536 expansion inside the slib module.
1538 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
1540 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
1541 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
1542 (let): New core form.
1543 (if): Removed from core language.
1544 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
1545 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
1546 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
1548 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
1549 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
1550 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
1552 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
1553 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
1556 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
1558 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
1559 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
1561 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
1563 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
1564 (make-module): Modified initialization.
1565 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
1566 mutator for module-associated transformer.
1567 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
1568 `scm:eval-transformer'.
1569 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
1570 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
1572 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
1574 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1576 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
1578 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
1579 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
1580 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
1581 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
1582 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
1584 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
1585 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
1586 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
1588 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
1589 the syncase interface.
1591 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1593 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
1594 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
1595 workings of the current module system).
1597 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1599 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
1600 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
1603 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1605 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
1606 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
1607 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
1609 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1611 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
1612 according to the following priorities:
1613 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
1614 2. bindings from the-scm-module
1616 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
1617 disabling the scheme interpreter.
1618 (new-interpreter): New function.
1620 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
1621 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
1622 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
1624 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1626 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1628 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1630 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
1632 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1634 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
1636 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
1638 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1640 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
1641 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
1644 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1646 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
1647 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
1648 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
1649 symbols matching regexp.
1651 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
1652 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
1655 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
1656 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
1657 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);

1659 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
1661 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
1662 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
1664 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1666 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
1667 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
1669 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
1670 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
1672 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
1674 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1676 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
1677 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
1678 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
1680 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
1682 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.

1693 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
1696 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1698 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
1699 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
1700 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
1702 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
1703 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
1706 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
1707 order to narrow it correctly.
1708 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
1710 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1712 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
1713 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
1715 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1717 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
1719 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1721 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
1722 builtin `with-fluids*'.
1724 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1726 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
1727 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
1728 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
1730 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1732 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
1735 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1737 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
1738 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
1739 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
1740 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
1741 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
1743 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1745 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
1746 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
1749 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
1751 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1753 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
1754 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
1755 notation, instead of #/ notation.
1757 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
1760 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1762 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
1763 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
1764 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
1765 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
1766 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
1767 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
1769 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
1770 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
1771 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
1772 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
1774 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1776 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
1777 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
1778 sending in bug reports.
1779 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
1780 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
1781 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
1782 display a warning if the two are different.
1783 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
1784 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
1785 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1787 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1789 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
1791 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1793 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
1794 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
1796 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
1797 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
1798 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
1799 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
1800 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
1801 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
1804 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
1805 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
1808 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
1809 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
1811 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
1814 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
1817 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1819 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
1822 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1824 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
1825 vtable and not the one of the struct.
1827 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1829 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
1830 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
1831 to support printing of structures.
1832 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
1833 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
1834 commented out printing code.
1835 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
1836 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
1838 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1840 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
1842 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1844 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
1845 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
1846 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
1847 during call to scm-style-repl.
1849 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1851 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
1852 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
1853 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
1854 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
1855 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
1857 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1859 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
1860 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
1863 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
1865 * regex.scm: New file.
1866 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
1867 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1869 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1871 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
1872 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
1873 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
1874 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
1876 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1878 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
1881 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1883 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
1884 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
1885 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
1887 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1889 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
1890 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
1893 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1895 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
1897 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1899 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
1901 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1903 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
1904 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
1907 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1909 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
1910 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
1911 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
1913 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1915 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
1916 the Scheme code like code yet.
1917 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
1919 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1921 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
1922 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
1923 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
1925 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1927 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
1929 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
1932 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1934 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
1936 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1938 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
1940 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
1941 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
1942 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
1944 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1946 Get 'make dist' to work again.
1947 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
1948 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
1950 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
1952 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
1953 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1955 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1957 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New

1964 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1966 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
1967 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
1969 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1971 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
1972 instead of in libguile.
1973 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
1974 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
1976 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1978 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
1980 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
1981 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
1983 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1985 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
1986 sockaddr:port): new functions.
1988 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1990 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
1991 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
1992 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
1993 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
1995 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1997 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
1998 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
2000 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2002 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
2004 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2006 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
2007 keywords and symbols.
2009 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2011 * slib.scm: update read usage.
2013 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
2014 Don't define read-sharp.
2016 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
2017 (read-sharp): removed.
2018 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
2019 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
2021 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2023 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
2025 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
2026 primitive procedure.)
2028 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
2029 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
2031 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2033 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
2035 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2037 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
2039 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2041 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
2043 * (exit): alias for quit.
2045 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2047 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
2048 return the quit args.
2049 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
2050 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
2051 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
2053 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
2055 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2057 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
2059 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
2060 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
2062 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
2063 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
2065 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
2066 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
2069 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2071 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
2073 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
2074 (add-hooks!): New macro.
2075 Change hooks to use these functions.
2077 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
2078 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
2079 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
2081 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
2082 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
2083 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
2084 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
2085 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
2086 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
2087 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
2090 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
2091 and exit-frame exceptions.
2093 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
2094 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
2095 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
2096 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
2097 result; otherwise display "> ".
2098 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
2100 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
2101 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
2102 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
2103 repository version runnable.
2105 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2107 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
2108 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
2109 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
2110 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
2111 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
2112 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
2114 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2116 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
2117 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
2119 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
2121 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
2122 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
2124 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2126 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
2128 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2130 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
2133 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2135 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
2136 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
2138 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2140 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
2143 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2145 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
2146 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
2148 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2150 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
2152 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
2153 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
2154 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
2155 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
2156 dynamic linking of modules.
2157 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
2158 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
2160 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2162 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
2164 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2166 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
2169 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
2170 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
2173 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2175 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
2176 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
2177 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
2179 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2181 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
2182 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
2185 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2187 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
2188 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
2189 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
2191 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2193 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
2194 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
2195 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
2196 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
2198 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
2199 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
2200 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
2201 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
2202 (such as the-scm-module).
2204 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2206 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
2209 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
2211 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
2212 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
2213 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
2215 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2217 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
2218 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
2219 function, use it accordingly.
2221 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2223 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
2224 function of no arguments.
2225 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
2226 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
2227 set-current-module): Uses changed.
2228 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
2229 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
2230 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
2231 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
2232 *top-level-eval-closure*.
2234 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2236 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
2237 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
2239 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2241 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
2242 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
2243 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
2244 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
2245 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
2247 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
2250 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
2251 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
2252 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
2253 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
2255 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
2257 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
2259 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
2260 If the user wants to see this, he can do
2261 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
2263 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
2266 Added `before-read-hook'.
2268 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
2270 (provide): New function.
2272 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
2275 (backtrace): New function.
2277 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
2278 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
2279 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
2280 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
2281 is found in operator position in a frame.
2283 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
2286 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
2287 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
2288 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
2290 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
2292 (library-vicinity): Updated.
2294 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
2296 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
2298 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2300 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
2302 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
2303 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
2305 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
2306 so they'll get distributed.
2308 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
2309 should see as little clutter as possible.
2310 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
2311 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
2312 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
2314 * r4rs.scm: New file.
2315 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
2316 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
2317 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
2318 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
2319 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
2320 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
2321 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
2322 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
2323 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
2325 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
2326 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
2328 * test.scm: New file.
2330 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
2331 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
2332 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
2334 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
2335 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
2337 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
2339 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
2340 call %load-announce.
2342 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2344 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
2345 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
2346 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
2348 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
2350 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2352 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
2353 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
2354 SCSH (which this isn't).
2356 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2358 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
2360 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2362 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
2363 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
2364 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
2366 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
2367 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
2368 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
2369 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
2372 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2374 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
2376 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
2378 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
2379 error-catching-loop.
2380 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
2381 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
2382 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
2384 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
2385 error-catching-loop.
2387 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2389 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
2390 (make-module): Rework for readability.
2391 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
2392 should be '(), not #f.
2394 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
2395 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
2397 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2399 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
2400 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
2403 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2405 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
2406 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
2407 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
2408 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
2410 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2412 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
2414 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2416 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
2418 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
2419 throw-handler-default.
2420 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
2422 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
2424 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
2425 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
2427 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2429 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
2430 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
2431 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
2432 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
2434 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2436 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
2437 Append "." to the default %load-path.
2438 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
2439 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
2441 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
2442 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
2443 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
2444 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
2447 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2449 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
2451 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
2454 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
2457 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
2459 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2461 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
2462 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
2464 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2466 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
2468 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
2470 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2472 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
2473 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
2474 Don't set up 'error as a key.
2475 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
2476 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
2478 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
2479 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
2480 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
2481 they seem redundant.
2482 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
2483 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
2484 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
2485 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
2486 directly files starting with "/").
2487 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
2488 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
2490 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
2492 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2494 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
2495 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
2496 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
2497 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
2498 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
2499 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
2500 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
2501 robust to just do it in the C code.
2503 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2505 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
2506 %try-load itself was the primitive.
2507 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
2508 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
2509 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
2511 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2513 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
2514 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
2515 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
2517 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2519 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
2520 system-error, not every kind of error.
2521 (scm-error): new procedure.
2523 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2525 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
2527 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2529 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
2530 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
2531 of args are supplied.
2532 (%%system-errors): removed.
2533 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
2534 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
2535 %%handle-system-error.
2536 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
2537 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
2538 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
2539 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
2541 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2543 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
2544 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
2545 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
2546 %S (embed an argument using "write").
2548 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2550 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
2551 the empty list if they are #f.
2552 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
2554 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2556 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
2558 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
2559 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
2560 aborting, just the key and subr.
2561 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
2562 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
2563 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
2565 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2567 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
2568 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
2569 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
2570 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
2571 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
2573 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2575 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
2576 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
2577 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
2578 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
2580 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2582 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
2583 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
2584 initialize %load-path.
2586 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
2587 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
2589 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
2591 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
2592 Add the directory named after the version number.
2593 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
2594 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
2595 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
2596 sitedatadir): New definitions.
2597 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
2598 (install): Create the above directories.
2599 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
2600 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
2602 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2604 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
2605 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
2606 in the Makefile directly.
2607 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
2609 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
2611 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
2612 here, where people expect to find them.
2614 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2616 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
2617 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
2619 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
2621 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2623 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
2624 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
2626 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2628 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
2629 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
2631 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
2632 weak-key-hash-table.
2634 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2636 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
2637 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
2638 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
2639 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
2640 (%open-file): removed.
2641 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
2642 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
2644 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2646 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
2647 (manifest): Deleted.
2648 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
2649 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
2651 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2653 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
