1 2008-07-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
3 * gds-client.scm (handle-nondebug-protocol): Add support for
4 setting a trap on code that is about to be evaluated.
6 2008-04-14 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
8 * gds-client.scm (gds-debug-trap): Ensure that frame index passed
9 to Emacs is always positive.
11 2008-03-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
13 * debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm (command-loop): Use
16 2008-02-22 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
18 * match.scm: Export `match:andmap'. This fixes evaluation of
19 expressions like `(match expr (((_ ...) ...) #t))' where a list
20 of lists is to be matched.
22 2008-01-22 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
26 2007-10-02 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
28 * slib.scm: Let SLIB's `guile.init' do most of the job. See the
29 `guile-devel@gnu.org' mailing list archive for details.
31 2007-09-01 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
33 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers)[warn, warn-override-core]:
34 Send warnings to `stderr' instead of `stdout'.
36 2007-08-08 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
38 * boot-9.scm (%record-type-check): Renamed to
40 (record-accessor): Directly use `struct-vtable' and
41 `struct-ref', thereby avoiding indirections and procedure-call
43 (record-modifier): Likewise.
45 2007-05-05 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@chbouib.org>
47 Implemented lazy duplicate binding handling. Fixed the
48 `module-observe-weak' API.
50 * boot-9.scm: Updated the `module-type' documentation under "{Low
52 (module-type)[import-obarray]: New slot.
53 [duplicates-interface, observer-id]: Removed.
54 (make-module): Updated accordingly. Use a weak-key hash table for
55 weak observers, so that observers aren't unregistered when the
56 observing closure gets GC'd.
57 (module-duplicates-interface, set-module-duplicates-interface!,
58 module-observer-id, set-module-observer-id!): Removed.
59 (module-import-obarray): New.
60 (module-observe-weak): Accept a new OBSERVER-ID argument allowing
61 callers control over when the observer will get unregistered.
62 (module-call-observers): Use `hash-for-each' rather than
64 (module-local-variable, module-variable): Removed, now implemented
66 (module-make-local-var!): Simplified. No need to check for the
67 value of a same-named imported binding since the newly created
68 variable is systematically assigned afterwards.
69 (module-use!): Check whether MODULE and INTERFACE are `eq?'.
70 (module-use-interfaces!): Simplified. No longer calls
72 (beautify-user-module!): Use `module-use!' rather than
73 `set-module-uses!' when importing THE-SCM-MODULE.
74 (process-define-module): Added an AUTOLOADS local variable so that
75 autoloads are handled separately from regular interfaces.
76 (make-autoload-interface): Updated `module-constructor'
78 (module-autoload!): New.
79 (make-duplicates-interface, process-duplicates): Removed.
80 (top-repl): Use `module-autoload!' rather than
81 `make-autoload-interface'.
83 2007-02-18 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
85 * gds-client.scm (connect-to-gds): Break generation of client name
87 (client-name): New procedure.
88 (client-name): Put something from (program-arguments) in the
89 client name that GDS displays in Emacs.
90 (connect-to-gds, client-name): Add application-name arg to allow
91 caller to specify client name.
93 2007-02-09 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
95 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added `i18n.scm'.
97 2007-01-31 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
99 * i18n.scm: Use `(ice-9 optargs)'. Don't export `LC_*_MASK'
100 variables. Added new exports.
101 (locale-encoding, locale-day-short, locale-day,
102 locale-month-short, locale-month, locale-am-string,

118 monetary-amount->locale-string, locale-digit-grouping,
119 locale-decimal-point, locale-thousands-separator,

122 (define-vector-langinfo-mapping, define-simple-langinfo-mapping,
123 define-monetary-langinfo-mapping): New macros.
125 2007-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
127 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Check (defined? 'SIGBUS) before using that
128 value, there's no such signal on mingw. Reported by Cesar Strauss.
130 2006-12-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
132 * boot-9.scm (use-srfis, top-repl): Use process-use-modules, to
133 correctly handle duplicates between the core and other modules, in
134 particular srfi-17 which should replace `car' etc (but didn't).
136 2006-12-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
138 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Remove module-use! of the core `(guile)'
139 module. It's already in `(guile-user)' and the module-use! elevates
140 it making core bindings override those from elsewhere, such as `iota'
141 under a run of "guile --use-srfi=1". Reported by Sven Hartrumpf.
143 2006-11-13 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
145 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Change eval-closure-module call
146 back to procedure-property lookup. (This completes the reversion
147 of the change made on 2005-06-10, which was only partially undone
148 by the change on 2005-08-01.)
150 2006-10-13 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
152 Integration of Unix domain socket patch from William Xu:
154 * gds-client.scm (connect-to-gds): Try to connect by Unix domain
155 socket if TCP connection fails.
157 * gds-server.scm (run-server): Update to support listening on a
160 2006-10-05 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
162 * ftw.scm (visited?-proc): Use hashv since we know we're getting
163 numbers. Incorporate stat:dev, since stat:ino is only unique within a
164 single device. This fixes a bug where if two files with the same
165 inode on different devices where seen only the first would be returned
168 2006-10-03 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
170 * gds-client.scm (run-utility): Remove unnecessary
171 `connect-to-gds' call.
173 2006-09-30 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
175 * debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm (debug-trap): Use
176 `debugger-command-loop' instead of `read-and-dispatch-commands',
177 which isn't actually available. Thanks to Carlos Pita for
179 (debugger-command-loop): Define here for 1.6.x.
181 2006-09-25 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
183 * debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm (debugger:step):
184 Docstring improvements.
185 (debugger:next): Docstring improvements.
186 (debugger:continue): Docstring improvements.
188 * debugger/commands.scm (up, down): Docstring corrections.
189 (info-args, info-frame, position, evaluate): Docstring
192 2006-09-23 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
194 * boot-9.scm (log, log10, exp, sqrt): Remove, now in
197 2006-09-07 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
199 * format.scm: Module "(ice-9 threads)" no longer used, now no mutex.
200 (format:parse-float): Fix normalization of leading zeros like "02.5"
201 to "2.5". left-zeros was zeroed before adjusting format:fn-dot,
202 resulting in the latter being unchanged.
204 2006-08-18 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
206 * debugging/trc.scm: New file.
208 * debugging/traps.scm: New file.
210 * debugging/trace.scm: New file.
212 * debugging/steps.scm: New file.
214 * debugging/load-hooks.scm: New file.
216 * debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm: New file.
218 * debugging/example-fns.scm: New file.
220 * debugging/breakpoints.scm: New file.
222 * debugging/Makefile.am: New.
224 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add debugging.
226 2006-08-02 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
228 * boot-9.scm (%record-type-check): New function.
229 (record-accessor, record-modifier): Use it for a strict type check of
230 the given record. Previously an accessor returned #f on a wrong
231 record type, and modifier silently did nothing.
233 2006-06-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
235 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add new files.
237 * gds-client.scm, gds-server.scm: New files.
239 2006-05-28 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
241 * documentation.scm (file-commentary): Move make-regexp into
242 file-commentary so that it's possible to get to the repl prompt when
243 regexps are not available.
245 2006-05-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
247 * threads.scm (n-par-for-each, n-for-each-par-map): Two more spots
248 where `futures' should become `threads' from Marius' change of
251 2006-03-04 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
253 * ice-9/boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Don't call `set-car!' if
254 the autoload interface has already been removed from MODULE's uses.
255 This bug showed up when using a given module both with `autoload' and
258 2006-02-21 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
260 * format.scm (format:out-dollar): Use format:out-inf-nan per ~f etc.
262 2006-02-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
264 * deprecated.scm (make-uniform-array): Don't pass the prototype as
265 the fill value, dimensions->uniform-array will do the right thing
266 now. See scm_dimensions_to_uniform_array why we need to be tricky
267 about the fill value.
269 2006-02-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
271 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Make sure that module code is
272 loaded with the default reader (current-reader #f). Thanks to
273 Ludovic Courtès for pointing this problem out.
275 * stack-catch.scm (stack-catch): Use catch pre-unwind handler
276 instead of lazy-catch.
278 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Use catch pre-unwind handler
279 instead of lazy-catch.
281 2006-02-01 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
283 * deprecated.scm (make-uniform-array): Fill the returned vector with
284 PROT, per guile 1.6 behaviour.
286 2006-01-30 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
288 * threads.scm (ice-9): Export %thread-handler.
290 2006-01-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
292 * threads.scm: Replaced 'futures' with threads.
294 2006-01-13 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
296 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): Use value of current-reader fluid to
297 do the read, if set. (Thanks to Ludovic Courtès for the patch.)
299 2005-12-14 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
301 * boot-9.scm (load-module): Support an optional custom reader arg,
302 implemented by passing on to r4rs's load.
304 * r4rs.scm (load): Support an optional custom reader arg,
305 implemented by passing on to primitive-load.
307 2005-12-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
309 From Stephen Compall.
311 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Add srfi-61.
313 2005-10-27 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
315 * networking.scm (sockaddr:flowinfo, sockaddr:scopeid): New functions.
317 2005-09-01 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
319 * debugger/utils.scm: Export write-frame-long.
321 2005-08-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
323 * boot-9.scm (set-module-eval-closure!): Undone change from
324 2005-06-10; with the new weak hashtable semantics, cyclic
325 references are no longer a problem.
327 2005-07-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
329 * debugger.scm: Remove comments which are now incorrect.
331 * debugger/Makefile.am (ice9_debugger_sources): Removed
332 breakpoints.scm, behaviour.scm, trap-hooks.scm.
335 Changes to remove breakpoint support from CVS, as I am now
336 developing this function outside Guile core.
338 * debugger/commands.scm (assert-continuable, continue, finish,
339 trace-finish, step, next): Removed.
341 * debugger/breakpoints/*: Removed.
343 * debugger/breakpoints.scm: Removed.
345 * debugger/command-loop.scm: Remove command definitions for
346 continue, finish, trace-finish, step and next.
348 * debugger/behaviour.scm: Removed.
350 * debugger.scm (debug-stack): Remove GDS related code.
352 2005-06-10 Han-Wen Nienhuys <hanwen@xs4all.nl>
354 * boot-9.scm (set-module-eval-closure!): remove
355 set-procedure-property! closure 'module. Setting this property
356 causes un-gc-able modules.
358 2005-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
360 * boot-9.scm (substring-fill!): New, for compatability.
362 2005-04-23 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
364 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Moved to C code in list.c
366 2005-04-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
368 * boot-9.scm (1+, 1-): Moved to numbers.c.
370 2005-03-08 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
372 * slib.scm (*features*): Remove 'random, need to use the slib code for
373 that module since guile doesn't provide `random:chunk'.
375 2005-02-12 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
377 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): add srfi-55.
378 (require-extension): add require-extension macro for srfi-55.
380 2005-01-29 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
382 * regex.scm (regexp-quote): Use string-for-each, now that function is
385 2005-01-28 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
387 * boot-9.scm (while): Remove the unquote from do, it breaks with ice-9
388 syncase. Reported by Pach Roman.
390 2005-01-10 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
392 * arrays.scm, deprecated.scm (uniform-vector-fill!,
393 make-uniform-vector, make-uniform-array, list->uniform-vector):
394 Moved from arrays.scm to deprecated.scm.
395 * arrays.scm, boot-9.scm (array-dimensions): Moved from arrays.scm
397 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed arrays.scm.
399 2005-01-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
401 * arrays.scm (uniform-vector-fill!, make-uniform-vector,
402 make-uniform-array,list->uniform-array): Deprecated for real.
404 2004-12-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
406 * arrays.scm (make-array, list->array): Removed.
407 (uniform-vector-fill!): Prepared to be deprecated.
409 2004-12-22 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
411 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): When creating a new
412 variable, initialize it to the value of any imported variable with
413 the given name. This allows code like (define round round) to
416 From Antoine Mathys <tonigonenstein@users.sourceforge.net>:
418 * popen.scm: Support bidirectional communication by making
419 open-pipe support OPEN_BOTH as second argument and in that case
420 return a soft input-output port which uses two pipes internally.
421 Provide open-pipe* to execute programs without using the shell
422 (and actually base open-pipe on it) and the obvious
423 open-input-output-pipe.
425 2004-12-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
427 * boot-9.scm: (string-any, string-every): Use a scheme wrapper around
428 the C code so for the final call to the predicate procedure is a tail
429 call, per SRFI-13 spec.
431 2004-12-01 mvo <mvo@zagadka.de>
433 * boot-9.scm (app, %app): Renamed former to the latter.
434 Previously, 'app' was reserved in every module. Now '%app' is
435 reserved, which is slightly better. The real fix is to not use
436 'local-ref' etc to find modules. Changed all uses.
437 * syncase.scm: Changed 'app' to '%app'.
439 2004-11-12 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
441 * arrays.scm: Do not use prototypes, use creator functions.
443 2004-11-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
445 * arrays.scm (uniform-vector-read!, uniform-vector-write):
448 2004-11-05 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
450 * boot-9.scm: Do not add "." to %load-path. 'load' will still be
451 able to load files in the current directory, but 'use-modules' etc
454 2004-10-29 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
456 * arrays.scm: Do not install read-hash procedure for reading
457 arrays, this is done in libguile now.
459 2004-10-27 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
461 * arrays.scm (uniform-vector?, uniform-vector-set!): Removed, now
462 provided by libguile.
464 2004-10-26 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
466 * boot-9.scm: Added srfi-4 to cond-expand features.
468 2004-10-18 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
470 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Simplified considerably by using
471 object->string or display instead of implementing our own printer.
472 Handle format:read-proof here. Unreadable objects are recognized
473 by their "#<" prefix instead of by being unknown to the custom
474 printer (which would treat keywords as unprintable, for example).
475 (format:iobj->str): Removed.
477 2004-10-04 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
479 * boot-9.scm (symbol->keyword, keyword->symbol): Removed, they are
480 now implemented in C.
482 2004-09-26 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
484 * optargs.scm (let-optional-template, let-keywords-template): Change
485 "(begin body)" to "(let () body)" for empty bindings, since the former
486 allows "internal defines" in body leak out to the surrounding
489 2004-09-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
491 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Pass rest argument to
492 display-backtrace for wrong-type-arg and out-of-range errors so
493 that the bad value gets highlighted.
495 2004-09-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
497 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): Correction, should recurse into
498 itself, not stream-for-each-one.
500 * time.scm (time-proc): Make result inexact, since format ~f doesn't
501 support fractions currently.
503 2004-09-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
505 * boot-9.scm (expt): Only call integer-expt for an exact integer
506 exponent, not for an inexact integer one. Also, let integer-expt
507 handle negative exponents instead of doing it here.
509 2004-09-02 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
511 * format.scm (format:out): Ignore excess arguments, per common lisp.
513 * format.scm (format:out-num-padded): Print "+" on 0 under @ modifier.
515 2004-08-27 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
517 * regex.scm (regexp-quote): [ and | must be quoted. Quote ( ) { + ?
518 using char class [(] etc since \( in fact makes them become special in
521 2004-08-25 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
523 * and-let-star.scm (and-let*): Give #t for an empty body, per srfi-2
524 spec, previously came out as an empty (begin).
526 2004-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
528 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Added srfi-13 and srfi-14.
530 2004-08-20 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
532 * debugger/utils.scm (display-source): Use unmemoize-expr instead
534 (write-frame-short/expression): Likewise.
536 2004-08-18 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
538 * and-let-star.scm: Add cond-expand-provide srfi-2, since this module
539 provides that feature.
540 * receive.scm: Add cond-expand-provide srfi-8, since this module
541 provides that feature.
543 2004-08-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
545 From Matthias Koeppe. Thanks!
547 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): In the local procedure `wr', use
548 object->string to print all data (except for the reader macros),
549 rather than implementing an own printer. The user-visible
550 difference is that procedures and control characters like #\tab
551 are now printed in the same way as by `write'.
553 2004-08-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
555 * slib.scm (*features*): Remove array and array-for-each, core
556 definitions are insufficient for latest slib.
557 (t, nil): New constants slib says are supposed to exist.
558 (call-with-open-ports, browse-url): New functions for latest slib.
559 Implementations taken from Template.scm (public domain).
560 (open-file): Extend core definition to accept symbols for the mode,
561 required by latest slib.
562 (delete-file): Replace core definition with version returning #t/#f as
564 (system): Mark as #:replace to suppress override warning, use new
565 style "(@ (guile) system)" to call core function.
567 2004-05-25 Matthias Koeppe <mkoeppe@mail.math.uni-magdeburg.de>
569 * format.scm: Remove the arbitrary limit of 100 iterations for the
570 ~{...~} control structure.
572 2004-07-10 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
574 * and-let-star.scm (and-let*): Remove unused variable "val".
575 * pretty-print.scm (read-macro-prefix): Remove unused variable "tail".
577 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Add srfi-6 which is in the core.
579 * safe-r5rs.scm (re-export): Uncomment numerator, denominator,
580 rationalize, since they now exist.
582 2004-07-05 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>

585 about when a define binding comes into existance.
587 2004-05-29 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
589 * boot-9.scm: Reordered definitions such that macro definitions
590 preceed their first usage. Include and define deprecated stuff
591 late in the file to have a better change of detecting accidental
592 uses of deprecated definitions. Further, unified the layout a
593 little and grouped definitions more cleanly into topics.
595 2004-05-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
597 * history.scm (use-value-history): Use resolve-interface instead
598 of resolve-module so that only the exported bindings are searched.

600 by Wolfgang Jaehrling.
602 2004-05-04 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
604 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): Always start searching from the
605 root module. This will allow the C equivalent scm_resolve_module

610 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Make the (guile-user) module use the

617 2004-02-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
619 * debugger/trap-hooks.scm (debug-hook-membership): New, exported.
621 * debugger/commands.scm (debug-trap-hooks): New, exported.
623 2004-02-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
625 * debugger/breakpoints/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES),
626 debugger/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES), Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES): Use
627 this variable instead of ETAGS_ARGS so that TAGS can be built
628 using separate build directory.
630 2004-01-20 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
632 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Back out 2003-11-19 change to
633 lazy-handler-dispatch lookup.

642 * slib.scm (system): New function, giving an exit code return in
643 accordance with slib spec.
645 Revert this, it breaks test-suite/tests/r5rs_pitfalls.test where
646 false-if-exception is used within syntax-rules. (Suspect syntax-rules
647 ought to support this sort of thing, but it doesn't right now.)
648 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
649 to depend on expansion environment.
651 2004-01-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
653 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): Use with-fluid* when only one fluid is

659 Reported by Richard Todd.
661 2004-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
663 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
664 to depend on expansion environment.
666 * slib.scm (-1+, <?, <=?, =?, >?, >=?): Define as aliases for 1-, <,
667 <=, =, >, >= respectively, required by slib 'rev2-procedures but no
668 longer in the guile core.
670 2003-11-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
672 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Defer lookup of

681 * boot-9.scm: Started comment about module system workings.

685 * debugger.scm: Change ui-* calls to gds-*.
686 (debug-on-error): Debug if throw key is in specified syms, not if
687 it isn't! Also throw 'abort after debugging, so as to skip the

705 debug immediately on connection.
706 (ui-eval): Handle exceptions during read and evaluation.
708 * debugger.scm (debug-on-error, default-default-lazy-handler):

712 2003-10-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
714 * ftw.scm (directory-files): Close dir-stream when done. Thanks
717 2003-10-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
719 * poe.scm (funcq-assoc): Rewrite, don't assume '() is false, and
720 actually traverse the given alist.
722 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
724 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
728 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
730 * debugger/ui-client.scm (ui-disable-async-thread,
731 ui-continue-async-thread, start-async-ui-thread): New.
732 (ui-command-loop): Call ui-disable-async-thread and
733 ui-continue-async-thread.
734 (handle-instruction): Read terminating newline char so it doesn't
735 cause following select to pop immediately.
737 2003-09-25 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
739 * debugger/ui-client.scm, debugger/ui-server.scm: New (work in
740 progress on new debugging front end).
742 2003-09-24 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
744 * debugger.scm (default-default-lazy-handler, debug-on-error):
747 * debugger/behaviour.scm (debug-if-flag-set): Display debug entry

766 2003-09-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
768 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
769 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
770 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
771 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
772 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
774 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
776 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
777 the obarray, not an empty vector.
778 (make-module): Always construct a hashtable for the obarray, even
781 * format.scm (format:error): Use 'format:format' instead of
782 'format' since the latter will lock the mutex again that we have
784 (format:format-work): Flag multiple '#' as an error.
786 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
788 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
789 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
791 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
793 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
794 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
795 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
797 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
798 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
800 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
802 * threads.scm (parallel): For no forms, use `(values)' not `(begin)'.

821 instead of substring-move-left! or substring-move-right!. Thanks
824 * deprecated.scm (substring-move-left!, substring-move-right!):
827 * boot-9.scm (display-usage-report): Use keyword->symbol instead
828 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.
830 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-get-handle): Pass only the expected four
831 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
833 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
834 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
836 2003-04-25 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kvast.blakulla.net>
838 * serialize.scm: New file.
840 2003-04-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
842 * threads.scm (n-for-each-par-map): New procedure.
844 2003-04-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>

864 2003-03-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
866 * format.scm (format:out-substr): Update the column counter
867 correctly. This fixes the behavior of ~T (tabbing) after ~F, for
868 instance. Thanks to Matthias Koeppe!
870 2003-03-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
872 * session.scm (apropos): Don't look in duplicates interface.
874 2003-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
876 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers): Make sure the merge-generics
877 and merge-accessors handlers are available also before (oop goops)
878 has been loaded. This is so that people can put them as default
879 handlers without worrying about availability.

962 * boot-9.scm (make-module): Changed default size from 1021 to 31
963 (since the size now adapts).

982 expression before trying to treat it as a Guile macro call.
983 (Thanks to Kevin Ryde.)
985 2003-01-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
987 * threads.scm (parallel, letpar): Rewritten.

1010 in output. (We normally *would* like also these expressions to be

1090 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): Re-introduced after accidentally
1091 removing it in my patch from 2002-11-16.
1093 2002-11-24 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1095 Thanks to Mikael Djurfeldt for a bugreport which led to the
1098 * slib.scm (%system-define): Removed.
1100 (define): Changed to use define-private instead of
1103 * boot-9.scm (define-private): Undid my changes from 2002-11-16
1104 until Guile supports hygienic macros.
1106 2002-11-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1108 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it
1109 has been removed from the core.
1111 2002-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1152 2002-11-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1154 * format.scm (format): Wrap a monitor around format:format since
1155 it is not thread-safe.
1157 2002-10-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1159 * threads.scm (%thread-handler): Explicitely return '#f'. This
1160 value will be returned by join-thread.

1164 Merging debugger enhancements previously in separate
1165 `guile-debugger' package ...
1167 * debugger.scm: Factored out into the following constituent parts
1168 - see comment in file for more details.
1169 (*not-yet-introduced*): New (avoids repeatedly introducing the
1170 debugger when entering it from breakpoints).
1172 (debug): Rewrite to use more general `debug-stack'.
1174 * debugger/commands.scm, debugger/command-loop.scm,
1175 debugger/state.scm, debugger/utils.scm: New files containing bits
1176 of old (ice-9 debugger), plus some rewriting and enhancements for
1177 breakpoint support ...
1179 * debugger/state.scm (state-rtd): Add flags field.
1180 (make-state): Extend to optionally take flags.
1181 (state-flags): New, accessor for flags field.
1182 (set-state-index!, set-stack-index!): New.
1183 (write-state-short): Rewritten to print out the current source
1184 location in a way that is more easily trackable by Emacs.
1186 * debugger/commands.scm (assert-continuable, continue, finish,
1187 trace-finish, step, next): New debugger commands for continuing
1188 execution from a breakpoint.
1190 * debugger/behaviour.scm, debugger/breakpoints.scm,
1191 debugger/breakpoints/procedural.scm,

1203 should be unnecessary now.
1205 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1207 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in
1208 guile-user-module (should it be there?) instead of
1211 2002-10-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1213 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use 2 as the limit when saving the stack.
1214 (error-catching-loop): use call-with-blocked-asyncs and

1220 * buffered-input.scm (make-buffered-input-port): Build an
1221 input-waiting thunk for just extended version of make-soft-port.

1230 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use "1" instead of "%deliver-signals" to
1231 limit the signal stack.
1233 2002-09-15 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1235 * boot-9.scm (feature?): Added deprecation message.

1249 * syncase.scm (expansion-eval-closure, env->eval-closure): New.
1250 (sc-macro): Set the expansion-eval-closure expanding the form.
1251 (putprop, getprop): Use the expansion-eval-closure to find
1252 variables instead of the current module.
1254 2002-07-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

1281 2002-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1283 * format.scm (format:fn-max): Increase to 400 so ~f and ~g can
1284 print long real numbers with large positive and negative
1287 2002-05-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1289 * syncase.scm: Use (ice-9 threads) so that with-mutex is defined.

1313 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
1315 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1317 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
1318 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
1319 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
1321 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
1323 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>
1325 * regex.scm: Add commentary; nfc.
1327 2002-02-05 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

1335 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
1336 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
1337 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
1338 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
1340 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1342 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1344 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
1345 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
1346 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
1348 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1350 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have
1353 2001-11-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1355 * boot-9.scm (turn-on-debugging): New function, to be used by
1356 scm_compile_shell_switches.
1358 * debug.scm: Do not enable debugging and recording of source
1361 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1363 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
1364 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
1365 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
1367 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
1368 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

1372 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
1373 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
1374 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
1375 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
1378 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1380 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
1383 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1385 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
1386 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
1387 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
1388 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
1390 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1392 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
1393 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
1394 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
1397 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1399 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
1401 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>

1410 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
1412 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1414 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
1415 the `arglist' procedure property.

1421 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1423 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
1424 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
1427 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1429 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
1431 (feature?): Deprecated.
1433 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,
1434 eval-in-module, split-c-module-name,
1435 (convert-c-registered-modules, registered-modules,
1436 register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation, init-dynamic-module,
1437 dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
1438 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
1439 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
1440 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
1442 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
1443 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!'.
1445 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated
1448 * format.scm: Remove deprecated definition of format that was
1449 needed to trick export.
1451 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1453 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
1455 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1457 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
1459 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
1461 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1463 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
1464 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
1465 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
1467 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1469 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
1470 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
1472 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1474 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
1476 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1478 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
1479 Touch up docstrings.
1482 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1484 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
1485 last-command fluid is not yet set.
1487 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1489 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
1491 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
1492 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
1493 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
1495 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
1497 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
1498 handle :use-syntax correctly.
1500 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1502 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
1503 compile-psyntax.scm.
1505 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1507 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
1508 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
1509 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
1510 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
1511 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
1513 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1515 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
1516 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
1517 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
1519 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1521 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
1522 primitives. Thanks Neil!
1524 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1526 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
1527 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
1528 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
1529 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
1531 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
1532 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
1533 since there aren't definitions for them.
1535 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
1536 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
1538 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1540 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
1541 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
1543 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1545 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
1546 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
1548 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1550 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
1551 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
1552 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
1554 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1556 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
1558 * tags.scm: Removed file.
1560 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1562 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
1563 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
1565 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
1566 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
1567 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
1570 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1572 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
1573 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
1575 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1577 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
1578 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
1580 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
1581 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
1582 evaluator trap options.)
1584 2001-06-25 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1586 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
1588 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1590 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
1592 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1594 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
1596 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1598 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
1599 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
1601 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1604 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
1605 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
1606 No longer require `pretty-print'.
1608 (slib:error): Delete.
1609 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
1611 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1616 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
1620 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1622 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
1623 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
1624 rdelim) module. See below.
1626 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1628 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
1629 include-deprecated-features is true.
1631 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1633 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
1636 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
1637 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
1638 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1640 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
1641 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
1642 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
1645 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1647 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
1648 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
1649 variable, not just a visible one.
1650 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
1651 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
1652 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
1653 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
1654 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
1655 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
1657 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
1659 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
1660 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
1662 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1664 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
1665 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
1667 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1669 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
1671 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1673 Added exception notice to all files.
1675 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
1676 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
1677 importing bindings once in a while.
1679 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1681 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
1682 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
1683 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1684 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
1685 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
1686 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
1687 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
1688 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
1690 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
1691 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
1693 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1695 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
1696 fix command so that it works.
1698 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
1699 to access unbound variables.
1701 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
1702 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
1703 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
1704 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
1705 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
1707 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1709 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
1710 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
1711 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
1712 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
1713 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
1714 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
1715 argument for process-define-module.
1716 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
1717 arguments for process-use-modules.
1718 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
1720 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

2266 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
2267 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
2270 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2272 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
2273 and open-output-pipe.
2275 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2277 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
2278 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
2279 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
2280 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
2281 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
2282 Pirotte for the bug report).
2283 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
2284 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
2286 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2288 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

2291 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
2293 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
2295 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

2298 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
2301 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2303 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
2306 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
2308 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
2309 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
2310 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
2312 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
2313 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
2314 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
2315 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
2316 actual documentation entries themselves.
2318 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2320 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
2322 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2324 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
2326 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2328 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
2329 Convert first argument to a string.
2331 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
2332 getter-and-setter-syntax,
2333 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
2334 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
2336 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
2338 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
2340 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2342 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
2344 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2346 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
2348 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
2350 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
2351 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
2352 even worked... /mdj.
2353 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
2355 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
2358 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2360 * psyntax.ss (set!): Added generalized set! support to core syntax

2376 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2378 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
2381 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2383 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
2384 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
2385 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
2386 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
2387 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
2389 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
2391 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2393 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
2394 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
2396 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
2399 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
2400 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
2401 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
2402 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
2404 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
2406 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
2407 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
2409 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
2411 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
2412 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
2414 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2416 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
2417 definition of module-type.
2419 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
2421 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
2423 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
2425 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
2426 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
2428 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2430 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
2432 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2434 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
2435 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
2436 Mikael for the suggestion.
2438 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2440 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
2441 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
2443 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2445 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
2448 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2450 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
2452 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2454 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
2455 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
2458 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
2459 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
2462 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2464 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
2465 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
2467 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
2468 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
2469 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
2471 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
2473 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
2475 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2477 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
2478 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
2480 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2482 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
2483 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
2485 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2487 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
2488 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
2490 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2492 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
2494 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2496 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
2498 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2500 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
2502 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
2503 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
2505 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
2507 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
2510 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
2511 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
2512 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
2513 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
2516 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
2518 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
2520 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2522 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
2523 (write-all): Removed.
2524 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
2525 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
2527 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
2529 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
2530 `proc-documentation'
2532 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
2533 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
2534 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
2535 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
2536 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
2537 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
2538 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
2541 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2543 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
2545 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2547 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
2548 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
2549 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
2552 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2554 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
2555 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
2556 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
2557 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
2558 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
2559 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
2560 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
2562 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2564 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
2565 accept complex numbers as parameter.
2567 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2569 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
2570 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
2572 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2574 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
2575 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
2576 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
2577 instead of remove-if when iterating.
2578 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
2579 delete-if! when iterating.
2581 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2583 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
2585 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2587 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
2589 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2591 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
2592 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
2593 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
2594 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
2596 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2598 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
2599 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
2601 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2603 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
2604 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
2605 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
2606 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
2608 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
2610 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
2611 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
2613 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2615 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
2616 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
2618 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2620 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
2623 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2625 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
2626 source of the numerous very short changes.
2628 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2630 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
2633 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
2636 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2638 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
2641 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2643 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
2644 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
2646 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2648 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
2651 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2653 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
2654 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
2655 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
2657 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2659 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
2660 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
2661 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
2662 Narazaki for this change.
2664 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2666 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
2667 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
2670 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
2671 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
2673 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2675 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
2676 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
2678 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2680 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
2681 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
2682 use define-public to export from the module.
2684 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2686 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
2687 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
2688 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
2690 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2692 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
2694 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2696 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
2697 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
2699 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2701 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
2703 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.

2707 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2709 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
2710 long_long uniform vectors.
2712 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2714 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
2715 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
2717 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2719 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
2720 script to create generated files like this one.
2722 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2724 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2725 available before using getpw and getuid.
2726 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2727 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2729 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2730 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2731 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2733 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2734 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2735 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2737 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2738 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2740 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2742 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2744 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2745 than 'exit-debugger.
2747 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2748 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2750 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.

2757 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2758 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
2759 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
2760 to return a valid state.)

2763 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2765 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
2766 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg

2771 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2772 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2774 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2776 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2778 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2780 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2781 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2783 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2784 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2785 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2787 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2790 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2792 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2793 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2795 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2797 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2799 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2800 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2801 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2802 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2804 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2807 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2808 both forward and backward views of the stack
2809 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2810 Use selector `frame-number';
2811 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2812 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2814 Use readline conditionally.
2816 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2818 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2819 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2820 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2822 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2823 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2826 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2828 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2830 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2832 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2834 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2836 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2838 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2839 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2840 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2841 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2842 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2843 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2844 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2845 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2846 libguile-config-stamp.
2847 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2848 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2849 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2850 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2851 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2853 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2855 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2856 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2857 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2859 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2860 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2861 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2862 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2865 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2867 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2869 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2871 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2873 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2874 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2876 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2878 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2879 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2880 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2881 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2882 objects starting with '#/'.
2884 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2886 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2887 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2888 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2889 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2890 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2891 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2893 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2894 module-modified): New procedures.
2895 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2896 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2898 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2900 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2903 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2905 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2906 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2907 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2909 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2912 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2914 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2915 at multiple calls to read.
2916 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2917 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2918 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2919 continued-lines prompt.
2921 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2922 reading expressions.
2924 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2926 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2927 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2929 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2931 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2932 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2935 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2937 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2938 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2940 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2941 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2942 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2943 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2944 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2947 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2949 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2950 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2952 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2954 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2955 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2956 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2957 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2959 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2961 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2963 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2964 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2965 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2968 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2970 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2971 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2972 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2973 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2974 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2975 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2976 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2977 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2978 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2979 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2980 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2982 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2984 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2985 peeked from the stream.
2986 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2987 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2988 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2990 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2992 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2993 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2995 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2997 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2998 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2999 exiting repl with single control-D.
3001 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
3003 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
3004 error catching loop after quit received.
3005 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
3007 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
3008 primitive exit if non-interactive.
3009 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
3011 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
3012 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
3014 * popen.scm: new file.
3016 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
3018 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
3019 (reverse-iota): removed.
3021 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
3023 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
3024 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
3026 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3028 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
3029 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
3030 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
3031 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3032 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
3034 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3036 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
3038 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
3039 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3041 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
3042 Guile's module system.
3044 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
3046 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
3047 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
3048 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
3049 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
3050 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
3051 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
3053 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
3054 '() when the condition is false.
3056 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3058 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3060 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3062 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
3064 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3066 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
3067 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
3068 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
3070 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3072 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
3073 argument order for hash-fold.
3075 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3077 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
3079 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
3080 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
3082 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
3083 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
3084 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
3085 has been added to the load path).
3087 Use try-load-module.
3089 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3091 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
3092 module between system and user state.
3094 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3096 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
3098 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
3101 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3103 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
3104 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
3105 system can create a wrapper class for it.
3107 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3109 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
3110 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
3111 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
3112 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
3113 stack frame encountered.
3115 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
3116 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
3117 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
3118 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
3121 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
3122 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
3123 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
3124 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
3127 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
3128 define-module switches:
3130 (define-module (foo)
3133 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
3136 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
3137 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
3138 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
3139 module it is a system frame.
3141 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
3142 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
3143 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
3144 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
3145 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
3147 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
3148 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
3149 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
3150 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
3151 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
3152 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
3154 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
3155 status of a module.;
3156 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
3157 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
3159 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
3160 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
3161 closure to the module.
3163 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
3165 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3167 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
3169 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
3171 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
3173 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3175 Fix from Russ McManus:
3176 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
3177 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
3178 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
3179 either an optional or required value.
3181 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3183 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
3185 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
3186 of the '() key, not `rest'.
3188 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
3189 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
3190 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
3191 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3193 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
3195 * optargs.scm: New file.
3196 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
3197 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
3199 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3201 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
3202 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
3203 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3205 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3207 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
3208 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
3211 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3213 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3215 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3217 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
3218 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
3219 applied to the module itself.
3221 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3223 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
3225 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
3226 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
3228 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3230 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
3232 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3234 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
3236 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
3238 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
3239 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
3241 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3243 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
3244 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
3245 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
3246 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
3247 among BINDINGS is referenced.
3248 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
3249 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
3251 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3253 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
3254 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
3256 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
3258 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
3259 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
3262 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3264 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
3266 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3268 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
3270 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3272 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
3273 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
3274 adapt to the new hooks.
3276 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3278 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
3279 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
3280 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
3282 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
3283 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
3285 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
3286 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
3287 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
3288 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
3289 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
3290 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
3291 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
3292 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
3293 first to register linked modules.
3295 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
3296 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
3297 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
3299 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
3300 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
3301 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
3302 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
3304 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
3306 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
3309 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
3310 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
3311 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
3313 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3315 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
3316 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
3317 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
3319 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3321 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
3322 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
3323 result of the last form.
3325 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3327 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
3330 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
3332 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
3333 readline-set!: New options interface.
3335 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
3337 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3339 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
3340 at the end of boot-9.scm.
3342 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3344 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
3345 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
3347 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3349 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
3350 interactive session.
3351 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
3353 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
3354 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
3356 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3358 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
3360 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3362 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
3363 read line was empty.
3365 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3367 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
3368 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
3370 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
3372 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
3374 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
3375 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
3376 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
3378 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
3379 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
3381 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
3382 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
3383 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
3385 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
3386 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
3387 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
3388 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
3389 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
3390 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
3392 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3394 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
3395 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3397 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3399 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
3400 and short vectors #h(...).
3402 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3404 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
3405 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
3406 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
3408 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3410 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
3411 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
3412 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
3414 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3416 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
3417 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
3419 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
3420 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
3421 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
3422 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
3424 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3426 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
3429 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
3430 order to allow the empty list as arg.
3431 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
3432 context with traps enabled.
3434 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3436 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
3438 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
3440 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3442 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
3443 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
3444 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
3445 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
3446 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
3448 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3450 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
3451 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
3453 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3455 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
3457 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3459 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
3461 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3463 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
3465 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3467 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
3468 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
3470 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3472 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
3473 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
3474 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
3475 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
3478 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
3479 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
3480 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
3482 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3484 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
3485 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
3486 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
3487 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
3488 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
3489 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
3490 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
3492 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3494 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
3496 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3498 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
3499 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
3500 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
3501 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
3502 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
3503 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
3505 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3507 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
3508 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
3509 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
3512 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3514 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
3516 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3518 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
3520 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3522 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
3525 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3527 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
3529 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3531 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
3532 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
3534 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3536 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
3537 similar in use to `use-modules'.
3538 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
3539 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
3541 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
3542 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
3544 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3546 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
3548 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3550 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
3551 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
3554 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
3555 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
3557 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
3558 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
3559 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
3561 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
3563 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3565 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
3567 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
3568 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
3570 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3572 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
3574 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3576 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
3577 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
3579 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
3581 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
3584 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3586 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
3587 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
3589 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3591 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
3593 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3595 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
3598 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3600 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
3601 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
3602 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
3603 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
3604 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
3607 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3609 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
3610 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
3611 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
3613 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3615 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
3617 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
3618 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
3620 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3622 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
3623 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
3624 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
3625 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
3626 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
3627 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
3628 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
3631 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3633 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
3636 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3638 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
3639 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
3640 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
3641 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
3642 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
3643 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
3645 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3647 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
3648 usefully so they will work from a script.
3650 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3652 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
3653 neighborhood of the record code.
3655 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3657 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
3658 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
3659 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
3660 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
3662 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3664 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
3665 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
3666 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3668 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3670 Add support for readline function.
3671 * readline.scm: New module.
3672 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
3673 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
3674 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
3676 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
3677 repl-reader to use them.
3678 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
3680 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
3682 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3684 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3685 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
3687 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3689 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
3690 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
3691 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
3693 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3695 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
3696 #f, abort terminates the process.
3697 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
3698 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
3700 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3702 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
3703 print-state, throw it away.
3705 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3707 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
3710 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3712 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
3713 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
3714 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
3715 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
3717 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
3718 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
3720 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3722 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3724 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3726 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3727 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3728 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3729 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3730 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3732 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3733 distribution and installation.
3734 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3736 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3738 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3740 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3742 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3743 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3744 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3746 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3747 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3750 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3752 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3754 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3756 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3758 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3759 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3760 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3761 field a separate argument.
3763 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3765 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3767 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3769 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3773 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3775 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3777 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3779 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3780 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3781 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3782 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3783 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3784 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3786 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3787 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3788 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3789 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3790 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3793 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3795 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
3797 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3799 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3800 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3802 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3804 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3806 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3807 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3808 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3809 expansion inside the slib module.
3811 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3813 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3814 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
3815 (let): New core form.
3816 (if): Removed from core language.
3817 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
3818 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
3819 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3821 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3822 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3823 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3825 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3826 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3829 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3831 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3832 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3834 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3836 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3837 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3838 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3839 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3840 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3841 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3842 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3843 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
3845 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
3847 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3849 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3851 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3852 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3853 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3854 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3855 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3857 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3858 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3859 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3861 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3862 the syncase interface.
3864 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3866 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3867 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3868 workings of the current module system).
3870 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3872 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3873 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

3882 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3884 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3885 according to the following priorities:
3886 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3887 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3889 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3890 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3891 (new-interpreter): New function.
3893 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3894 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3895 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).

3913 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3914 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

3919 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3920 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.

3922 symbols matching regexp.
3924 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
3925 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3928 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3929 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3930 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);

3932 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3934 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
3935 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3937 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3939 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
3940 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
3942 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
3943 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
3945 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
3947 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3949 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
3950 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
3951 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
3953 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
3955 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
3956 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
3957 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
3959 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

3969 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3971 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3972 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3973 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3975 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3976 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3979 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3980 order to narrow it correctly.
3981 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
3983 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3985 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
3986 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
3988 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3990 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3992 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3994 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3995 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3997 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3999 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
4000 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
4001 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
4003 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4005 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
4008 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4010 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
4011 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
4012 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
4013 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
4014 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
4016 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
4018 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
4019 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
4022 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
4024 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

4035 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
4036 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
4037 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
4038 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
4039 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
4040 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
4042 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
4043 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
4044 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
4045 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
4047 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
4049 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
4050 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
4051 sending in bug reports.
4052 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
4053 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
4054 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
4055 display a warning if the two are different.
4056 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
4057 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
4058 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

4062 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
4064 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
4066 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
4067 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
4069 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
4070 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
4071 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
4072 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
4073 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
4074 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
4077 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
4078 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
4081 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
4082 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
4084 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
4087 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
4090 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

4095 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4097 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
4098 vtable and not the one of the struct.
4100 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4102 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
4103 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
4104 to support printing of structures.
4105 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
4106 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
4107 commented out printing code.
4108 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
4109 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
4111 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>

4115 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4117 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
4118 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
4119 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
4120 during call to scm-style-repl.
4122 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4124 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
4125 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
4126 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
4127 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
4128 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
4130 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4132 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
4133 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
4136 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
4138 * regex.scm: New file.
4139 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
4140 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

4145 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
4146 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
4147 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
4149 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4151 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
4154 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4156 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
4157 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
4158 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
4160 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4162 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
4163 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
4166 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4168 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
4170 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4172 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
4174 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4176 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
4177 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
4180 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4182 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
4183 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
4184 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
4186 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4188 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
4189 the Scheme code like code yet.
4190 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
4192 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4194 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
4195 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
4196 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
4198 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4200 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
4202 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
4205 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4207 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
4209 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4211 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
4213 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
4214 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
4215 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
4217 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4219 Get 'make dist' to work again.
4220 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
4221 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
4223 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
4225 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
4226 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

4244 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
4245 instead of in libguile.
4246 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
4247 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
4249 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4251 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
4253 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
4254 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
4256 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4258 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
4259 sockaddr:port): new functions.
4261 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4263 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
4264 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
4265 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
4266 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
4268 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4270 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
4271 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.

4275 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
4277 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4279 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
4280 keywords and symbols.
4282 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4284 * slib.scm: update read usage.
4286 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
4287 Don't define read-sharp.
4289 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
4290 (read-sharp): removed.
4291 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
4292 case_i or read-sharp arguments.

4302 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
4304 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4306 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
4308 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4310 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
4312 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4314 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
4316 * (exit): alias for quit.
4318 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4320 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
4321 return the quit args.
4322 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
4323 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
4324 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
4326 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
4328 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4330 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
4332 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
4333 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
4335 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
4336 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
4338 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
4339 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
4342 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4344 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
4346 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
4347 (add-hooks!): New macro.
4348 Change hooks to use these functions.
4350 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
4351 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
4352 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
4354 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
4355 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
4356 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
4357 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
4358 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
4359 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
4360 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
4363 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
4364 and exit-frame exceptions.
4366 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
4367 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
4368 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
4369 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
4370 result; otherwise display "> ".
4371 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
4373 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
4374 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
4375 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
4376 repository version runnable.
4378 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4380 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
4381 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
4382 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
4383 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
4384 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
4385 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
4387 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4389 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
4390 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
4392 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
4394 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
4395 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
4397 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4399 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
4401 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4403 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
4406 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4408 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
4409 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
4411 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4413 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
4416 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4418 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
4419 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
4421 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4423 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
4425 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
4426 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
4427 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
4428 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
4429 dynamic linking of modules.
4430 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
4431 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
4433 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4435 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
4437 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4439 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
4442 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
4443 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
4446 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4448 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
4449 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
4450 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
4452 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4454 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
4455 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
4458 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4460 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
4461 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
4462 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
4464 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4466 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
4467 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
4468 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
4469 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
4471 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
4472 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
4473 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
4474 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
4475 (such as the-scm-module).
4477 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4479 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
4482 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
4484 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
4485 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
4486 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
4488 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4490 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
4491 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
4492 function, use it accordingly.
4494 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4496 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
4497 function of no arguments.
4498 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
4499 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
4500 set-current-module): Uses changed.
4501 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
4502 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
4503 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
4504 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
4505 *top-level-eval-closure*.
4507 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4509 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
4510 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
4512 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4514 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
4515 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
4516 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
4517 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
4518 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
4520 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
4523 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
4524 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
4525 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
4526 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
4528 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
4530 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
4532 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
4533 If the user wants to see this, he can do
4534 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
4536 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
4539 Added `before-read-hook'.
4541 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
4543 (provide): New function.
4545 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
4548 (backtrace): New function.
4550 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
4551 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
4552 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
4553 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
4554 is found in operator position in a frame.
4556 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
4559 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
4560 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
4561 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
4563 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
4565 (library-vicinity): Updated.
4567 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
4569 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
4571 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4573 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
4575 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
4576 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
4578 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
4579 so they'll get distributed.
4581 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
4582 should see as little clutter as possible.
4583 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
4584 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
4585 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
4587 * r4rs.scm: New file.
4588 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
4589 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
4590 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
4591 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
4592 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
4593 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
4594 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
4595 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
4596 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
4598 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
4599 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
4601 * test.scm: New file.
4603 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
4604 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
4605 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
4607 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
4608 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
4610 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
4612 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
4613 call %load-announce.
4615 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4617 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
4618 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
4619 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
4621 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
4623 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4625 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
4626 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
4627 SCSH (which this isn't).
4629 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4631 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4633 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4635 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
4636 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
4637 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
4639 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
4640 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
4641 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
4642 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
4645 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4647 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
4649 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
4651 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
4652 error-catching-loop.
4653 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
4654 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
4655 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
4657 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
4658 error-catching-loop.
4660 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4662 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
4663 (make-module): Rework for readability.
4664 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
4665 should be '(), not #f.
4667 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
4668 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
4670 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4672 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
4673 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
4676 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4678 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
4679 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
4680 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
4681 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
4683 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4685 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
4687 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4689 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
4691 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
4692 throw-handler-default.
4693 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
4695 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
4697 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
4698 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
4700 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4702 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
4703 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
4704 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
4705 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
4707 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4709 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
4710 Append "." to the default %load-path.
4711 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
4712 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
4714 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
4715 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
4716 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
4717 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
4720 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4722 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4724 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4727 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4730 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4732 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4734 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4735 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4737 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4739 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4741 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4743 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4745 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4746 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4747 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4748 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4749 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4751 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4752 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4753 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4754 they seem redundant.
4755 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4756 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4757 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4758 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4759 directly files starting with "/").
4760 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4761 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4763 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4765 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4767 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4768 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4769 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4770 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4771 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4772 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4773 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4774 robust to just do it in the C code.
4776 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4778 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4779 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4780 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4781 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4782 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4784 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4786 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4787 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4788 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4790 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4792 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4793 system-error, not every kind of error.
4794 (scm-error): new procedure.
4796 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4798 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4800 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4802 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4803 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4804 of args are supplied.
4805 (%%system-errors): removed.
4806 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4807 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4808 %%handle-system-error.
4809 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4810 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4811 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4812 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4814 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4816 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4817 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4818 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4819 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4821 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4823 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4824 the empty list if they are #f.
4825 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4827 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4829 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4831 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4832 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4833 aborting, just the key and subr.
4834 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4835 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4836 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4838 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4840 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4841 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4842 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4843 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4844 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4846 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4848 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4849 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4850 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4851 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4853 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4855 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4856 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4857 initialize %load-path.
4859 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4860 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4862 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4864 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4865 Add the directory named after the version number.
4866 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4867 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4868 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,

4885 here, where people expect to find them.
4887 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
