  20         docstrings.
  21
  22 2001-11-04  Neil Jerram  <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
  23
  24         * preface.texi: Use MANUAL_EDITION variable.
  25         (Manual Layout): Updated to reflect reorg.
  26
  27         * guile.texi (MANUAL_EDITION): New variable, with value

  29         (Top): Use MANUAL_EDITION variable.
  30
  31         * scheme-indices.texi (R5RS Index, Guile Extensions Index): Use
  32         @unnumbered rather than @chapter for these indices.
  33
  34         * guile.texi (Top): A little top-level reshuffling, with the aims
  35         that: (1) the `Guile Scheme' (reference) part of the manual
  36         becomes the `Guile API Reference', and covers both Scheme and C
  37         interfaces; (2) non-API-reference material such as the `Basic
  38         Ideas in Scheme' chapter is collected together to form a new part
  39         `Programming with Guile'.  This new part will contain general
  40         documentation on using and programming Guile in both Scheme and C,
  41         including - for example - awareness of GC when C programming, how
  42         to use the snarf macros, how to debug ...
  43         (Top): Move inclusion of scheme-indices.texi so that all indices
  44         appear together in the printed manual.
  45
  46         * Makefile.am (guile_TEXINFOS): Removed appendices.texi, added
  47         debugging.texi.
  48
  49         * appendices.texi: Removed.
  50
  51         * debugging.texi (Debugger User Interface): New file, same as the
  52         material that used to be in appendices.texi, but now a chapter in
  53         Part II rather than an appendix.
  54
  55         * appendices.texi (Obtaining and Installing Guile): Moved to
  56         become a chapter in ...
  57         * intro.texi: ... Part I: Introduction to Guile.
  58
  59         * scm.texi (I/O Extensions): Moved to become a section of ...
  60         * scheme-io.texi (Input and Output): ... this chapter.
  61
  62         * scm.texi (Handling Errors): Moved to become a section of ...
  63         * scheme-control.texi (Control Mechanisms): ... this chapter.
  64
  65 2001-11-06  Thien-Thi Nguyen  <ttn@glug.org>

  68         time and clock resolution, SRFI-19 Time object and accessors,
  69         SRFI-19 Time comparison procedures, SRFI-19 Time arithmetic
  70         procedures, SRFI-19 Date object and accessors, SRFI-19
  71         Time/Date/Julian Day/Modified Julian Day converters, SRFI-19 Date
  72         to string/string to date converters): New nodes.
  73         (SRFI Support): Add "SRFI-19" to menu.
  74

  78
  79 2001-10-27  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
  80
  81         * guile.texi, scsh.texi: removed obsolete guile-scsh material
  82         and updated links (I don't know if it should remain in the
  83         main menu.  It's like slib I think.)
  84
  85         * minor updates to the slib installation notes.
  86

 126         the stable CVS branch.
 127
