16 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
18 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
19 last-command fluid is not yet set.
21 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
23 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
25 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
26 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
27 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
29 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
31 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
32 handle :use-syntax correctly.
34 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
36 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
39 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
41 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in

47 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
49 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
50 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
51 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
53 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
55 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
56 primitives. Thanks Neil!
58 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
60 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
61 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
62 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
63 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
65 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
66 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'

70 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
72 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
74 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
75 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
77 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
79 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
80 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
82 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
84 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
85 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
86 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
88 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
90 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
92 * tags.scm: Removed file.

96 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
97 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
99 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
100 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.

104 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
106 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it

130 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
132 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
133 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
135 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
138 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.

142 (slib:error): Delete.
143 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
145 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
150 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
154 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
156 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
157 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
158 rdelim) module. See below.
160 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
162 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
163 include-deprecated-features is true.
165 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
167 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
170 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
171 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
172 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
174 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
175 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
176 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
179 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
181 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
182 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
183 variable, not just a visible one.
184 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
185 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
186 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
187 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
188 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
189 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
191 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
193 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
194 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
196 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
198 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
199 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
201 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
203 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
205 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
207 Added exception notice to all files.
209 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
210 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
211 importing bindings once in a while.
213 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
215 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
216 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
217 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
218 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
219 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
220 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
221 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
222 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
224 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
225 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
227 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
229 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
230 fix command so that it works.
232 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
233 to access unbound variables.
235 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
236 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
237 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
238 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
239 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
241 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
243 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
244 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
245 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
246 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
247 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
248 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
249 argument for process-define-module.
250 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
251 arguments for process-use-modules.
252 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
254 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
256 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
257 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
258 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
261 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
262 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
263 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
265 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.

292 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
294 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
295 * match.scm: Likewise.
296 * expect.scm: Likewise.
297 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
299 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
301 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
303 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
305 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
306 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
307 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
308 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
309 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
310 element list when adding "." to it.
311 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
312 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
314 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
316 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
318 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
319 now accepts arg; update callers.
320 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
321 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
323 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
324 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
325 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
326 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
327 `search-documentation-files'.
328 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
329 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
330 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
332 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
333 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
335 (find-documentation): Delete.
336 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.

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

356 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
358 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
360 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with

367 (root-module-closure): Removed.
368 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
369 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
370 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
371 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
372 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
373 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
374 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
375 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
376 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
377 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
378 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
379 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
380 `set-current-module' call.
381 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
382 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

605 2001-03-12 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
607 * common-list.scm (count-if): New procedure.
609 2001-03-10 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
611 * buffered-input.scm (make-buffered-input-port): New, more general
612 buffered input procedure. Does not assume that a newline
613 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
615 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
616 make-buffered-input-port.
618 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
620 * match.scm: Don't export defstruct. Use (unquote defstruct) instead.
622 2001-03-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

633 changes in order to comply with paragraph 2a of the GPL. (Thanks
636 2001-03-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
638 * buffered-input.scm (make-line-buffered-input-port): Don't set
639 the continuation flag for leading whitespace. Thanks to Dirk
640 Herrmann for the suggestion.
642 2001-03-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
644 * optargs.scm (rest-arg->keyword-binding-list): Use "'()" instead
647 * buffered-input.scm: New file, with guts of line buffered input
648 port implementation extracted from guile-readline/readline.scm.
650 2001-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
652 * stack-catch.scm: New file.

661 2001-02-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
663 * boot-9.scm (save-stack): Use `primitive-eval' for stack
664 cutting. Makes backtraces work again! Also added a reference to
665 save-stack from the place in the repl where the primitive-eval
668 2001-02-25 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
670 * match.scm: New file, including Andrew K. Wright's pattern matcher.
671 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added match.scm.
673 2001-02-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
675 * boot-9.scm (eval-when, eval-case): Renamed `eval-when' to
676 `eval-case', everywhere.
678 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
680 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
681 `interaction-evironment'.
682 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
684 (eval-when): New macro.
685 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
686 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
687 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
689 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the
691 (define-module): Simply call `process-define-module' without any
692 fuss (but only on top-level).
693 (named-module-use!): New function.
694 (top-repl): Do not use `define-module'. Use equivalent low-level
697 2001-02-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
699 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Use `primitive-eval' instead of
701 (define-public): Do not use `eval'.
703 2001-02-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
705 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Display the warning to the
706 `current-error-port'.
708 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
710 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
713 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to
714 `and-let-star.scm'. Updated module name as well.
715 * and-let-star-compat.scm: New file, installed as `and-let*.scm'.
716 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced "and-let*.scm" with
718 (install-data-local): Install "and-let-star-compat.scm" as
719 "and-let*.scm", ignoring errors.
720 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute `and-let-star-compat.scm'.
722 2001-01-26 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
724 This patch fixes a problem reported by Martin Grabmueller about
725 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
727 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to
728 conveniently define a group of option interface functions.
730 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
731 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
733 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
735 * boot-9.scm: don't import (ice-9 rdelim) here. it's done
737 * rdelim.scm: export the C primitives too.
738 * documentation.scm: use (ice-9 rdelim).
740 2001-01-21 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
742 * rdelim.scm: new file implementing module (ice-9 rdelim).
743 * ice-9.scm (scm-line-incrementors read-line! read-delimited!
744 read-delimited read-line): moved to rdelim.scm.
745 scm-line-incrementors is not exported.
746 * boot-9.scm: import (ice-9 rdelim) for backwards compatibility,
748 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
749 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
751 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
753 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
754 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
755 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
756 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
757 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
758 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
759 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
761 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
763 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
764 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
766 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
768 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
771 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
773 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
776 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
778 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
780 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
782 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
783 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
784 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
785 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
786 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
787 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
788 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
789 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
790 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
791 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
792 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
793 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
794 make-shared-substring.
796 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
798 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
799 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
800 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
801 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
804 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
806 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
807 and open-output-pipe.
809 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
811 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
812 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
813 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
814 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
815 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
816 Pirotte for the bug report).
817 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
818 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
820 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
822 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
823 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
825 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
827 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
829 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

832 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
835 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
837 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
840 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
842 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
843 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
844 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
846 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
847 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
848 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
849 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
850 actual documentation entries themselves.
852 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
854 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
856 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
858 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
860 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
862 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
863 Convert first argument to a string.
865 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
866 getter-and-setter-syntax,
867 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
868 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
870 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
872 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
874 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
876 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
878 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
880 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
882 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
884 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
885 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
887 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
889 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
892 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

910 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
912 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
915 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
917 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
918 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
919 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
920 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
921 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
923 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
925 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
927 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
928 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
930 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
933 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
934 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
935 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
936 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
938 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
940 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.

943 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
945 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
946 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
948 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
950 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
951 definition of module-type.
953 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
955 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
957 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
959 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
960 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
962 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
964 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
966 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
968 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
969 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
970 Mikael for the suggestion.
972 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
974 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
975 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
977 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
979 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
982 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
984 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
986 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
988 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
989 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
992 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
993 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
996 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
998 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
999 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1001 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1002 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1003 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1005 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1007 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1009 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1011 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1012 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1014 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1016 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1017 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1019 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1021 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1022 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1024 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1026 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1028 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1030 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1032 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1034 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1036 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1037 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1039 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1041 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1044 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1045 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1046 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1047 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.

1056 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1057 (write-all): Removed.
1058 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1059 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1061 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1063 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1064 `proc-documentation'
1066 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1067 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1068 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1069 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1070 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1071 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1072 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1075 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1077 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1079 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1081 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1082 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1083 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1086 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1088 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1089 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1090 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1091 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1092 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1093 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1094 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1096 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1098 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1099 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1101 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1103 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1104 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1106 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1108 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1109 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1110 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1111 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1112 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1113 delete-if! when iterating.
1115 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1117 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1119 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1121 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1123 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1125 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1126 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1127 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1128 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1130 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1132 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1133 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1135 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1137 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1138 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1139 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1140 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1142 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1144 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1145 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.

1149 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1150 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1152 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1154 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1157 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1159 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1160 source of the numerous very short changes.
1162 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1164 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1167 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1170 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1172 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1175 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1177 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1178 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1180 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1182 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1185 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1187 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1188 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1189 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1191 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1193 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1194 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1195 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1196 Narazaki for this change.
1198 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1200 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1201 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1204 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1205 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1207 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1209 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1210 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1212 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1214 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1215 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1216 use define-public to export from the module.
1218 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1220 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1221 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1222 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1224 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1226 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1228 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1230 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1231 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1233 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1235 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1237 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1239 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1241 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1243 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1244 long_long uniform vectors.
1246 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1248 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1249 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1251 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1253 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1254 script to create generated files like this one.
1256 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1258 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1259 available before using getpw and getuid.
1260 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1261 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1263 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1264 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1265 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1267 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1268 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1269 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1271 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1272 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1274 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1276 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1278 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1279 than 'exit-debugger.
1281 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1282 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1284 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1286 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1288 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1289 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1290 ("position"): New command.
1291 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1292 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1293 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1294 to return a valid state.)
1295 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1297 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1299 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1300 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1303 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1305 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1306 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1308 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1310 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1312 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1314 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1315 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1317 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1318 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1319 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1321 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1324 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1326 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1327 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1329 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1331 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1333 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1334 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1335 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1336 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1338 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1341 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1342 both forward and backward views of the stack
1343 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1344 Use selector `frame-number';
1345 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1346 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1348 Use readline conditionally.
1350 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1352 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1353 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1354 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1356 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1357 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1360 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1362 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1364 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1366 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1368 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1370 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1372 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1373 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1374 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1375 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1376 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1377 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1378 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1379 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1380 libguile-config-stamp.
1381 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1382 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1383 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1384 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1385 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1387 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1389 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1390 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1391 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1393 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1394 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1395 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1396 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1399 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1401 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1403 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1405 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1407 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1408 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1410 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1412 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1413 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1414 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1415 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1416 objects starting with '#/'.
1418 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1420 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1421 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1422 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1423 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1424 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1425 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1427 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1428 module-modified): New procedures.
1429 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1430 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1432 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1434 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1437 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1439 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1440 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1441 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1443 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1446 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1448 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1449 at multiple calls to read.
1450 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1451 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1452 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1453 continued-lines prompt.
1455 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1456 reading expressions.
1458 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1460 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1461 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1463 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1465 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1466 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1469 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1471 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1472 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1474 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1475 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1476 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1477 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1478 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1481 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1483 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1484 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1486 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1488 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1489 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1490 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1491 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1493 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1495 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1497 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1498 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1499 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1502 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1504 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1505 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1506 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1507 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1508 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1509 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1510 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1511 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1512 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1513 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1514 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1516 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1518 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1519 peeked from the stream.
1520 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1521 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1522 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1524 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1526 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1527 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1529 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1531 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1532 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1533 exiting repl with single control-D.
1535 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1537 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1538 error catching loop after quit received.
1539 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1541 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1542 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1543 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1545 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1546 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1548 * popen.scm: new file.
1550 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1552 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1553 (reverse-iota): removed.
1555 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1557 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1558 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1560 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1562 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1563 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1564 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1565 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1566 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1568 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1570 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1572 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1573 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1575 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1576 Guile's module system.
1578 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1580 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1581 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1582 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1583 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1584 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1585 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1587 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1588 '() when the condition is false.
1590 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1592 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1594 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1596 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1598 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1600 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1601 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1602 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1604 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1606 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1607 argument order for hash-fold.
1609 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1611 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1613 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1614 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1616 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1617 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1618 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1619 has been added to the load path).
1621 Use try-load-module.
1623 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1625 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1626 module between system and user state.
1628 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1630 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1632 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1635 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1637 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1638 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1639 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1641 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1643 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1644 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1645 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1646 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1647 stack frame encountered.
1649 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1650 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1651 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1652 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1655 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1656 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1657 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1658 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
1661 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
1662 define-module switches:
1664 (define-module (foo)
1667 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
1670 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
1671 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
1672 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
1673 module it is a system frame.
1675 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
1676 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
1677 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
1678 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
1679 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
1681 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
1682 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
1683 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
1684 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
1685 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
1686 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
1688 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
1689 status of a module.;
1690 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
1691 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
1693 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
1694 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
1695 closure to the module.
1697 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
1699 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1701 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
1703 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1705 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
1707 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1709 Fix from Russ McManus:
1710 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
1711 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
1712 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
1713 either an optional or required value.
1715 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1717 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
1719 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
1720 of the '() key, not `rest'.
1722 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
1723 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
1724 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
1725 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1727 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1729 * optargs.scm: New file.
1730 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
1731 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
1733 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1735 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
1736 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
1737 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1739 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1741 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
1742 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
1745 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1747 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1749 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1751 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
1752 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
1753 applied to the module itself.
1755 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1757 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
1759 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
1760 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
1762 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1764 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
1766 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1768 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
1770 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1772 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
1773 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
1775 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1777 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
1778 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
1779 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
1780 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
1781 among BINDINGS is referenced.
1782 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
1783 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
1785 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1787 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
1788 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
1790 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1792 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
1793 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
1796 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1798 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
1800 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1802 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
1804 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1806 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
1807 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
1808 adapt to the new hooks.
1810 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1812 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
1813 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
1814 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
1816 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
1817 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
1819 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
1820 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
1821 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
1822 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
1823 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
1824 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
1825 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
1826 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
1827 first to register linked modules.
1829 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
1830 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
1831 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
1833 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
1834 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
1835 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
1836 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
1838 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
1840 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
1843 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
1844 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
1845 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
1847 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1849 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
1850 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
1851 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
1853 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1855 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
1856 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
1857 result of the last form.
1859 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1861 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
1864 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
1866 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
1867 readline-set!: New options interface.
1869 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
1871 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1873 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
1874 at the end of boot-9.scm.
1876 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1878 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
1879 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1881 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1883 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
1884 interactive session.
1885 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
1887 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
1888 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
1890 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1892 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
1894 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1896 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
1897 read line was empty.
1899 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1901 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
1902 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
1904 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
1906 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
1908 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
1909 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
1910 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
1912 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
1913 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
1915 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
1916 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
1917 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
1919 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
1920 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
1921 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
1922 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
1923 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
1924 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
1926 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1928 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1929 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1931 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1933 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
1934 and short vectors #h(...).
1936 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1938 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
1939 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
1940 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
1942 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1944 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
1945 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
1946 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
1948 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1950 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
1951 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
1953 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
1954 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
1955 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
1956 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
1958 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1960 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
1963 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
1964 order to allow the empty list as arg.
1965 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
1966 context with traps enabled.
1968 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1970 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
1972 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
1974 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1976 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
1977 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
1978 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
1979 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
1980 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
1982 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1984 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
1985 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
1987 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1989 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
1991 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1993 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
1995 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1997 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
1999 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2001 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2002 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2004 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2006 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2007 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2008 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2009 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2012 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2013 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2014 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2016 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2018 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2019 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2020 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2021 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2022 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2023 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2024 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2026 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2028 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2030 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2032 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2033 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2034 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2035 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2036 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2037 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2039 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2041 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2042 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2043 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2046 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2048 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2050 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2052 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2054 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2056 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2059 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2061 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2063 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2065 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2066 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2068 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2070 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2071 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2072 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2073 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2075 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2076 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2078 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2080 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2082 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2084 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2085 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2088 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2089 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2091 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2092 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2093 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2095 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2097 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2099 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2101 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2102 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2104 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2106 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2108 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2110 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2111 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2113 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2115 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2118 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2120 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2121 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2123 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2125 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2127 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2129 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2132 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2134 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2135 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2136 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2137 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2138 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2141 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2143 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2144 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2145 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2147 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2149 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2151 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2152 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2154 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2156 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2157 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2158 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2159 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2160 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2161 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2162 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2165 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2167 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2170 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2172 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2173 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2174 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2175 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2176 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2177 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2179 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2181 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2182 usefully so they will work from a script.
2184 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2186 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2187 neighborhood of the record code.
2189 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2191 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2192 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2193 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2194 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2196 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2198 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2199 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2200 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2202 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2204 Add support for readline function.
2205 * readline.scm: New module.
2206 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2207 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2208 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2210 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2211 repl-reader to use them.

2231 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2232 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2234 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

2254 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2256 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2258 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2260 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2261 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2262 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2263 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2264 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2266 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for

2278 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2280 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2281 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2284 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2286 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2288 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2290 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2292 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2293 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2294 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2295 field a separate argument.
2297 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2299 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2301 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.

2316 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2317 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2318 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2320 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2321 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2322 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2323 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2324 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically

2338 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2340 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2341 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2342 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2343 expansion inside the slib module.
2345 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2347 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.

2357 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2359 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2360 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2363 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2365 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2366 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2368 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.

2383 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2385 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2386 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2387 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2388 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2389 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2391 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2392 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2393 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2395 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2396 the syncase interface.
2398 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2400 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2401 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2402 workings of the current module system).
2404 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2406 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2407 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

2416 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2418 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2419 according to the following priorities:
2420 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2421 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2423 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2424 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2425 (new-interpreter): New function.
2427 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2428 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2429 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2431 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2433 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2435 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2437 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

2445 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2447 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2448 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

2453 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2454 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.

2459 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2462 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2463 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
2464 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
2465 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
2466 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2468 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2469 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2471 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2473 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2474 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2476 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2477 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2479 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2481 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2483 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2484 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.

2489 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.

2503 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2505 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2506 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2507 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2509 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2510 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2513 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2514 order to narrow it correctly.
2515 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

2522 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2524 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
2526 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2528 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2529 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2531 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2533 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2534 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2535 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2537 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2539 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2542 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2544 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,

2550 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2552 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:

2569 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2570 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2571 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2572 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2573 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2574 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2576 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2577 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2578 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2579 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2581 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2583 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2584 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2585 sending in bug reports.
2586 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2587 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2588 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2589 display a warning if the two are different.
2590 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2591 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2592 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

2596 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
2598 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2600 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2601 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2603 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2604 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2605 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2606 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2607 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2608 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2611 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2612 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2615 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2616 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2618 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2621 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2624 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2626 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
2629 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2631 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2632 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2634 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2636 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2637 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2638 to support printing of structures.
2639 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2640 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2641 commented out printing code.
2642 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2643 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".

2652 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2653 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2654 during call to scm-style-repl.
2656 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2658 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2659 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2660 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
2661 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
2662 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
2664 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2666 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
2667 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
2670 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
2672 * regex.scm: New file.
2673 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
2674 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2676 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>

2679 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
2680 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
2681 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
2683 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2685 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
2688 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2690 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
2691 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
2692 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
2694 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2696 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
2697 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
2700 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2702 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2704 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2706 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2708 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2710 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
2711 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
2714 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2716 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
2717 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
2718 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
2720 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2722 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
2723 the Scheme code like code yet.
2724 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
2726 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2728 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
2729 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
2730 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
2732 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2734 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
2736 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
2739 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2741 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
2743 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2745 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
2747 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
2748 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
2749 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
2751 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2753 Get 'make dist' to work again.
2754 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
2755 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
2757 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
2759 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
2760 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2762 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2764 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
2767 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2769 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
2771 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2773 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
2774 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
2776 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2778 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
2779 instead of in libguile.
2780 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
2781 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
2783 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2785 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
2787 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
2788 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
2790 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2792 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
2793 sockaddr:port): new functions.
2795 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2797 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
2798 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
2799 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
2800 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
2802 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2804 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
2805 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
2807 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2809 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
2811 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2813 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
2814 keywords and symbols.
2816 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2818 * slib.scm: update read usage.
2820 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
2821 Don't define read-sharp.
2823 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
2824 (read-sharp): removed.
2825 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
2826 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
2828 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2830 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
2832 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
2833 primitive procedure.)
2835 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
2836 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
2838 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2840 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
2842 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2844 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
2846 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2848 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
2850 * (exit): alias for quit.
2852 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2854 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
2855 return the quit args.
2856 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
2857 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
2858 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
2860 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
2862 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2864 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
2866 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
2867 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
2869 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
2870 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
2872 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
2873 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
2876 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2878 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
2880 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
2881 (add-hooks!): New macro.
2882 Change hooks to use these functions.
2884 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
2885 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
2886 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
2888 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
2889 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
2890 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
2891 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
2892 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
2893 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
2894 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
2897 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
2898 and exit-frame exceptions.
2900 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
2901 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
2902 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
2903 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
2904 result; otherwise display "> ".
2905 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
2907 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
2908 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
2909 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
2910 repository version runnable.
2912 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2914 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
2915 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
2916 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
2917 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
2918 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
2919 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
2921 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2923 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
2924 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
2926 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
2928 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
2929 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
2931 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2933 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
2935 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2937 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
2940 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2942 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
2943 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
2945 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2947 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
2950 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2952 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
2953 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
2955 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2957 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
2959 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
2960 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
2961 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
2962 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
2963 dynamic linking of modules.
2964 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
2965 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
2967 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2969 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
2971 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2973 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
2976 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
2977 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
2980 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2982 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
2983 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
2984 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
2986 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2988 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
2989 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
2992 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2994 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
2995 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
2996 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
2998 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3000 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3001 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3002 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3003 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3005 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3006 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3007 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3008 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3009 (such as the-scm-module).
3011 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3013 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3016 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3018 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3019 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3020 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3022 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3024 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3025 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3026 function, use it accordingly.
3028 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3030 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3031 function of no arguments.
3032 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3033 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3034 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3035 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3036 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3037 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3038 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3039 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3041 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3043 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3044 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3046 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3048 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3049 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3050 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3051 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3052 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3054 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3057 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3058 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3059 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3060 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3062 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3064 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3066 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3067 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3068 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3070 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3073 Added `before-read-hook'.
3075 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3077 (provide): New function.
3079 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3082 (backtrace): New function.
3084 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3085 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3086 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3087 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3088 is found in operator position in a frame.
3090 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3093 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3094 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3095 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3097 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3099 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3101 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3103 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3105 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3107 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3109 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3110 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3112 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3113 so they'll get distributed.
3115 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3116 should see as little clutter as possible.
3117 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3118 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3119 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3121 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3122 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3123 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3124 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3125 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3126 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3127 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3128 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3129 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3130 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3132 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3133 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3135 * test.scm: New file.
3137 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3138 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3139 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3141 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3142 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3144 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3146 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3147 call %load-announce.
3149 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3151 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3152 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3153 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3155 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3157 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3159 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3160 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3161 SCSH (which this isn't).
3163 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3165 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3167 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3169 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3170 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3171 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3173 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3174 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3175 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3176 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3179 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3181 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3183 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3185 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3186 error-catching-loop.
3187 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3188 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3189 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3191 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3192 error-catching-loop.
3194 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3196 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3197 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3198 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3199 should be '(), not #f.
3201 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3202 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3204 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3206 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3207 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3210 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3212 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3213 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3214 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3215 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3217 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3219 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3221 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3223 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3225 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3226 throw-handler-default.
3227 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3229 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3231 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3232 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3234 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3236 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3237 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3238 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3239 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3241 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3243 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3244 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3245 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3246 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3248 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3249 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3250 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3251 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3254 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3256 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3258 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3261 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3264 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3266 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3268 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3269 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3271 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3273 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3275 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3277 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3279 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3280 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3281 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3282 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3283 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3285 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3286 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3287 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3288 they seem redundant.
3289 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3290 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3291 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3292 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3293 directly files starting with "/").
3294 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3295 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3297 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3299 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3301 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3302 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3303 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3304 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3305 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3306 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3307 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3308 robust to just do it in the C code.
3310 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3312 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3313 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3314 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3315 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3316 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3318 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3320 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3321 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3322 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3324 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3326 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3327 system-error, not every kind of error.
3328 (scm-error): new procedure.
3330 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3332 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3334 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3336 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3337 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3338 of args are supplied.
3339 (%%system-errors): removed.
3340 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3341 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3342 %%handle-system-error.
3343 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3344 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3345 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3346 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3348 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3350 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3351 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3352 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3353 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3355 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3357 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3358 the empty list if they are #f.
3359 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3361 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3363 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3365 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3366 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3367 aborting, just the key and subr.
3368 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3369 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3370 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3372 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3374 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3375 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3376 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3377 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3378 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3380 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3382 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3383 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3384 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3385 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3387 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3389 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3390 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3391 initialize %load-path.
3393 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3394 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3396 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3398 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3399 Add the directory named after the version number.
3400 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3401 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3402 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3403 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3404 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3405 (install): Create the above directories.
3406 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3407 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3409 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3411 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3412 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3413 in the Makefile directly.
3414 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3416 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3418 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3419 here, where people expect to find them.
3421 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3423 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3424 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3426 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3428 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3430 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3431 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3433 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3435 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
3436 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3438 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
3439 weak-key-hash-table.
3441 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3443 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3444 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3445 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
3446 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
3447 (%open-file): removed.
3448 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3449 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3451 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3453 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3454 (manifest): Deleted.
3455 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
3456 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3458 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3460 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3461 now that they throw errors directly.
3462 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3463 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
3465 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3467 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
3469 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
3471 * The more things change...
