  12         scheme-data.texi, scheme-binding.texi, posix.texi,

  14         docstrings.
  15
  16 2001-11-04  Neil Jerram  <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
  17
  18         * preface.texi: Use MANUAL_EDITION variable.
  19         (Manual Layout): Updated to reflect reorg.
  20
  21         * guile.texi (MANUAL_EDITION): New variable, with value
  22         incremented from 1.0 to 1.1 to reflect the reorg described here.
  23         (Top): Use MANUAL_EDITION variable.
  24
  25         * scheme-indices.texi (R5RS Index, Guile Extensions Index): Use
  26         @unnumbered rather than @chapter for these indices.
  27
  28         * guile.texi (Top): A little top-level reshuffling, with the aims
  29         that: (1) the `Guile Scheme' (reference) part of the manual
  30         becomes the `Guile API Reference', and covers both Scheme and C
  31         interfaces; (2) non-API-reference material such as the `Basic
  32         Ideas in Scheme' chapter is collected together to form a new part
  33         `Programming with Guile'.  This new part will contain general
  34         documentation on using and programming Guile in both Scheme and C,
  35         including - for example - awareness of GC when C programming, how
  36         to use the snarf macros, how to debug ...
  37         (Top): Move inclusion of scheme-indices.texi so that all indices
  38         appear together in the printed manual.
  39
  40         * Makefile.am (guile_TEXINFOS): Removed appendices.texi, added
  41         debugging.texi.
  42
  43         * appendices.texi: Removed.
  44
  45         * debugging.texi (Debugger User Interface): New file, same as the
  46         material that used to be in appendices.texi, but now a chapter in
  47         Part II rather than an appendix.
  48
  49         * appendices.texi (Obtaining and Installing Guile): Moved to
  50         become a chapter in ...
  51         * intro.texi: ... Part I: Introduction to Guile.
  52
  53         * scm.texi (I/O Extensions): Moved to become a section of ...
  54         * scheme-io.texi (Input and Output): ... this chapter.
  55
  56         * scm.texi (Handling Errors): Moved to become a section of ...
  57         * scheme-control.texi (Control Mechanisms): ... this chapter.
  58
  59 2001-11-06  Thien-Thi Nguyen  <ttn@glug.org>

  62         time and clock resolution, SRFI-19 Time object and accessors,
  63         SRFI-19 Time comparison procedures, SRFI-19 Time arithmetic
  64         procedures, SRFI-19 Date object and accessors, SRFI-19
  65         Time/Date/Julian Day/Modified Julian Day converters, SRFI-19 Date
  66         to string/string to date converters): New nodes.
  67         (SRFI Support): Add "SRFI-19" to menu.

  72
  73 2001-10-27  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
  74
  75         * guile.texi, scsh.texi: removed obsolete guile-scsh material
  76         and updated links (I don't know if it should remain in the
  77         main menu.  It's like slib I think.)
  78
  79         * minor updates to the slib installation notes.
