1 2007-09-01 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
3 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers)[warn, warn-override-core]:
4 Send warnings to `stderr' instead of `stdout'.
6 2007-08-08 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
8 * boot-9.scm (%record-type-check): Renamed to
10 (record-accessor): Directly use `struct-vtable' and
11 `struct-ref', thereby avoiding indirections and procedure-call
13 (record-modifier): Likewise.
15 2007-05-05 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@chbouib.org>
17 Implemented lazy duplicate binding handling. Fixed the
18 `module-observe-weak' API.
20 * boot-9.scm: Updated the `module-type' documentation under "{Low
22 (module-type)[import-obarray]: New slot.
23 [duplicates-interface, observer-id]: Removed.
24 (make-module): Updated accordingly. Use a weak-key hash table for
25 weak observers, so that observers aren't unregistered when the
26 observing closure gets GC'd.
27 (module-duplicates-interface, set-module-duplicates-interface!,
28 module-observer-id, set-module-observer-id!): Removed.
29 (module-import-obarray): New.
30 (module-observe-weak): Accept a new OBSERVER-ID argument allowing
31 callers control over when the observer will get unregistered.
32 (module-call-observers): Use `hash-for-each' rather than
34 (module-local-variable, module-variable): Removed, now implemented
36 (module-make-local-var!): Simplified. No need to check for the
37 value of a same-named imported binding since the newly created
38 variable is systematically assigned afterwards.
39 (module-use!): Check whether MODULE and INTERFACE are `eq?'.
40 (module-use-interfaces!): Simplified. No longer calls
42 (beautify-user-module!): Use `module-use!' rather than
43 `set-module-uses!' when importing THE-SCM-MODULE.
44 (process-define-module): Added an AUTOLOADS local variable so that
45 autoloads are handled separately from regular interfaces.
46 (make-autoload-interface): Updated `module-constructor'
48 (module-autoload!): New.
49 (make-duplicates-interface, process-duplicates): Removed.
50 (top-repl): Use `module-autoload!' rather than
51 `make-autoload-interface'.
53 2007-02-18 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
55 * gds-client.scm (connect-to-gds): Break generation of client name
57 (client-name): New procedure.
58 (client-name): Put something from (program-arguments) in the
59 client name that GDS displays in Emacs.
60 (connect-to-gds, client-name): Add application-name arg to allow
61 caller to specify client name.
63 2007-02-09 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
65 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added `i18n.scm'.
67 2007-01-31 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
69 * i18n.scm: Use `(ice-9 optargs)'. Don't export `LC_*_MASK'
70 variables. Added new exports.
71 (locale-encoding, locale-day-short, locale-day,
72 locale-month-short, locale-month, locale-am-string,
73 locale-pm-string, locale-date+time-format, locale-date-format,

88 monetary-amount->locale-string, locale-digit-grouping,

90 number->locale-string, locale-yes-regexp, locale-no-regexp): New
92 (define-vector-langinfo-mapping, define-simple-langinfo-mapping,
93 define-monetary-langinfo-mapping): New macros.
95 2007-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
97 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Check (defined? 'SIGBUS) before using that
98 value, there's no such signal on mingw. Reported by Cesar Strauss.
100 2006-12-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
102 * boot-9.scm (use-srfis, top-repl): Use process-use-modules, to
103 correctly handle duplicates between the core and other modules, in
104 particular srfi-17 which should replace `car' etc (but didn't).
106 2006-12-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
108 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Remove module-use! of the core `(guile)'
109 module. It's already in `(guile-user)' and the module-use! elevates
110 it making core bindings override those from elsewhere, such as `iota'
111 under a run of "guile --use-srfi=1". Reported by Sven Hartrumpf.
113 2006-11-13 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
115 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Change eval-closure-module call
116 back to procedure-property lookup. (This completes the reversion
117 of the change made on 2005-06-10, which was only partially undone
118 by the change on 2005-08-01.)
120 2006-10-13 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
122 Integration of Unix domain socket patch from William Xu:
124 * gds-client.scm (connect-to-gds): Try to connect by Unix domain
125 socket if TCP connection fails.
127 * gds-server.scm (run-server): Update to support listening on a
130 2006-10-05 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
132 * ftw.scm (visited?-proc): Use hashv since we know we're getting
133 numbers. Incorporate stat:dev, since stat:ino is only unique within a
134 single device. This fixes a bug where if two files with the same
135 inode on different devices where seen only the first would be returned
138 2006-10-03 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
140 * gds-client.scm (run-utility): Remove unnecessary
141 `connect-to-gds' call.
143 2006-09-30 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
145 * debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm (debug-trap): Use
146 `debugger-command-loop' instead of `read-and-dispatch-commands',
147 which isn't actually available. Thanks to Carlos Pita for
149 (debugger-command-loop): Define here for 1.6.x.
151 2006-09-25 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
153 * debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm (debugger:step):
154 Docstring improvements.
155 (debugger:next): Docstring improvements.
156 (debugger:continue): Docstring improvements.
158 * debugger/commands.scm (up, down): Docstring corrections.
159 (info-args, info-frame, position, evaluate): Docstring
162 2006-09-23 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
164 * boot-9.scm (log, log10, exp, sqrt): Remove, now in
167 2006-09-07 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
169 * format.scm: Module "(ice-9 threads)" no longer used, now no mutex.
170 (format:parse-float): Fix normalization of leading zeros like "02.5"
171 to "2.5". left-zeros was zeroed before adjusting format:fn-dot,
172 resulting in the latter being unchanged.
174 2006-08-18 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
176 * debugging/trc.scm: New file.
178 * debugging/traps.scm: New file.
180 * debugging/trace.scm: New file.
182 * debugging/steps.scm: New file.
184 * debugging/load-hooks.scm: New file.
186 * debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm: New file.
188 * debugging/example-fns.scm: New file.
190 * debugging/breakpoints.scm: New file.
192 * debugging/Makefile.am: New.
194 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add debugging.
196 2006-08-02 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
198 * boot-9.scm (%record-type-check): New function.
199 (record-accessor, record-modifier): Use it for a strict type check of
200 the given record. Previously an accessor returned #f on a wrong
201 record type, and modifier silently did nothing.
203 2006-06-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
205 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add new files.
207 * gds-client.scm, gds-server.scm: New files.
209 2006-05-28 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
211 * documentation.scm (file-commentary): Move make-regexp into
212 file-commentary so that it's possible to get to the repl prompt when
213 regexps are not available.
215 2006-05-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
217 * threads.scm (n-par-for-each, n-for-each-par-map): Two more spots
218 where `futures' should become `threads' from Marius' change of
221 2006-03-04 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
223 * ice-9/boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Don't call `set-car!' if
224 the autoload interface has already been removed from MODULE's uses.
225 This bug showed up when using a given module both with `autoload' and
228 2006-02-21 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
230 * format.scm (format:out-dollar): Use format:out-inf-nan per ~f etc.
232 2006-02-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
234 * deprecated.scm (make-uniform-array): Don't pass the prototype as
235 the fill value, dimensions->uniform-array will do the right thing
236 now. See scm_dimensions_to_uniform_array why we need to be tricky
237 about the fill value.
239 2006-02-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
241 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Make sure that module code is
242 loaded with the default reader (current-reader #f). Thanks to
243 Ludovic Courtès for pointing this problem out.
245 * stack-catch.scm (stack-catch): Use catch pre-unwind handler
246 instead of lazy-catch.
248 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Use catch pre-unwind handler
249 instead of lazy-catch.
251 2006-02-01 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
253 * deprecated.scm (make-uniform-array): Fill the returned vector with
254 PROT, per guile 1.6 behaviour.
256 2006-01-30 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
258 * threads.scm (ice-9): Export %thread-handler.
260 2006-01-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
262 * threads.scm: Replaced 'futures' with threads.
264 2006-01-13 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
266 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): Use value of current-reader fluid to
267 do the read, if set. (Thanks to Ludovic Courtès for the patch.)
269 2005-12-14 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
271 * boot-9.scm (load-module): Support an optional custom reader arg,
272 implemented by passing on to r4rs's load.
274 * r4rs.scm (load): Support an optional custom reader arg,
275 implemented by passing on to primitive-load.
277 2005-12-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
279 From Stephen Compall.
281 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Add srfi-61.
283 2005-10-27 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
285 * networking.scm (sockaddr:flowinfo, sockaddr:scopeid): New functions.
287 2005-09-01 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
289 * debugger/utils.scm: Export write-frame-long.
291 2005-08-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
293 * boot-9.scm (set-module-eval-closure!): Undone change from
294 2005-06-10; with the new weak hashtable semantics, cyclic
295 references are no longer a problem.
297 2005-07-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
299 * debugger.scm: Remove comments which are now incorrect.
301 * debugger/Makefile.am (ice9_debugger_sources): Removed
302 breakpoints.scm, behaviour.scm, trap-hooks.scm.
305 Changes to remove breakpoint support from CVS, as I am now
306 developing this function outside Guile core.
308 * debugger/commands.scm (assert-continuable, continue, finish,
309 trace-finish, step, next): Removed.
311 * debugger/breakpoints/*: Removed.
313 * debugger/breakpoints.scm: Removed.
315 * debugger/command-loop.scm: Remove command definitions for
316 continue, finish, trace-finish, step and next.
318 * debugger/behaviour.scm: Removed.
320 * debugger.scm (debug-stack): Remove GDS related code.
322 2005-06-10 Han-Wen Nienhuys <hanwen@xs4all.nl>
324 * boot-9.scm (set-module-eval-closure!): remove
325 set-procedure-property! closure 'module. Setting this property
326 causes un-gc-able modules.
328 2005-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
330 * boot-9.scm (substring-fill!): New, for compatability.
332 2005-04-23 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
334 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Moved to C code in list.c
336 2005-04-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
338 * boot-9.scm (1+, 1-): Moved to numbers.c.
340 2005-03-08 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
342 * slib.scm (*features*): Remove 'random, need to use the slib code for
343 that module since guile doesn't provide `random:chunk'.
345 2005-02-12 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
347 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): add srfi-55.
348 (require-extension): add require-extension macro for srfi-55.
350 2005-01-29 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
352 * regex.scm (regexp-quote): Use string-for-each, now that function is
355 2005-01-28 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
357 * boot-9.scm (while): Remove the unquote from do, it breaks with ice-9
358 syncase. Reported by Pach Roman.
360 2005-01-10 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
362 * arrays.scm, deprecated.scm (uniform-vector-fill!,
363 make-uniform-vector, make-uniform-array, list->uniform-vector):
364 Moved from arrays.scm to deprecated.scm.
365 * arrays.scm, boot-9.scm (array-dimensions): Moved from arrays.scm
367 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed arrays.scm.
369 2005-01-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
371 * arrays.scm (uniform-vector-fill!, make-uniform-vector,
372 make-uniform-array,list->uniform-array): Deprecated for real.
374 2004-12-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
376 * arrays.scm (make-array, list->array): Removed.
377 (uniform-vector-fill!): Prepared to be deprecated.
379 2004-12-22 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
381 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): When creating a new
382 variable, initialize it to the value of any imported variable with
383 the given name. This allows code like (define round round) to
386 From Antoine Mathys <tonigonenstein@users.sourceforge.net>:
388 * popen.scm: Support bidirectional communication by making
389 open-pipe support OPEN_BOTH as second argument and in that case
390 return a soft input-output port which uses two pipes internally.
391 Provide open-pipe* to execute programs without using the shell
392 (and actually base open-pipe on it) and the obvious
393 open-input-output-pipe.
395 2004-12-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
397 * boot-9.scm: (string-any, string-every): Use a scheme wrapper around
398 the C code so for the final call to the predicate procedure is a tail
399 call, per SRFI-13 spec.
401 2004-12-01 mvo <mvo@zagadka.de>
403 * boot-9.scm (app, %app): Renamed former to the latter.
404 Previously, 'app' was reserved in every module. Now '%app' is
405 reserved, which is slightly better. The real fix is to not use
406 'local-ref' etc to find modules. Changed all uses.
407 * syncase.scm: Changed 'app' to '%app'.
409 2004-11-12 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
411 * arrays.scm: Do not use prototypes, use creator functions.
413 2004-11-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
415 * arrays.scm (uniform-vector-read!, uniform-vector-write):
418 2004-11-05 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
420 * boot-9.scm: Do not add "." to %load-path. 'load' will still be
421 able to load files in the current directory, but 'use-modules' etc
424 2004-10-29 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
426 * arrays.scm: Do not install read-hash procedure for reading
427 arrays, this is done in libguile now.
429 2004-10-27 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
431 * arrays.scm (uniform-vector?, uniform-vector-set!): Removed, now
432 provided by libguile.
434 2004-10-26 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
436 * boot-9.scm: Added srfi-4 to cond-expand features.
438 2004-10-18 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
440 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Simplified considerably by using
441 object->string or display instead of implementing our own printer.
442 Handle format:read-proof here. Unreadable objects are recognized
443 by their "#<" prefix instead of by being unknown to the custom
444 printer (which would treat keywords as unprintable, for example).
445 (format:iobj->str): Removed.
447 2004-10-04 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
449 * boot-9.scm (symbol->keyword, keyword->symbol): Removed, they are
450 now implemented in C.
452 2004-09-26 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
454 * optargs.scm (let-optional-template, let-keywords-template): Change
455 "(begin body)" to "(let () body)" for empty bindings, since the former
456 allows "internal defines" in body leak out to the surrounding
459 2004-09-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
461 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Pass rest argument to
462 display-backtrace for wrong-type-arg and out-of-range errors so
463 that the bad value gets highlighted.
465 2004-09-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
467 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): Correction, should recurse into
468 itself, not stream-for-each-one.
470 * time.scm (time-proc): Make result inexact, since format ~f doesn't
471 support fractions currently.
473 2004-09-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
475 * boot-9.scm (expt): Only call integer-expt for an exact integer
476 exponent, not for an inexact integer one. Also, let integer-expt
477 handle negative exponents instead of doing it here.
479 2004-09-02 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
481 * format.scm (format:out): Ignore excess arguments, per common lisp.
483 * format.scm (format:out-num-padded): Print "+" on 0 under @ modifier.
485 2004-08-27 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
487 * regex.scm (regexp-quote): [ and | must be quoted. Quote ( ) { + ?
488 using char class [(] etc since \( in fact makes them become special in
491 2004-08-25 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
493 * and-let-star.scm (and-let*): Give #t for an empty body, per srfi-2
494 spec, previously came out as an empty (begin).
496 2004-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
498 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Added srfi-13 and srfi-14.
500 2004-08-20 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
502 * debugger/utils.scm (display-source): Use unmemoize-expr instead
504 (write-frame-short/expression): Likewise.
506 2004-08-18 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
508 * and-let-star.scm: Add cond-expand-provide srfi-2, since this module
509 provides that feature.
510 * receive.scm: Add cond-expand-provide srfi-8, since this module
511 provides that feature.
513 2004-08-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
515 From Matthias Koeppe. Thanks!
517 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): In the local procedure `wr', use
518 object->string to print all data (except for the reader macros),
519 rather than implementing an own printer. The user-visible
520 difference is that procedures and control characters like #\tab
521 are now printed in the same way as by `write'.
523 2004-08-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
525 * slib.scm (*features*): Remove array and array-for-each, core
526 definitions are insufficient for latest slib.
527 (t, nil): New constants slib says are supposed to exist.
528 (call-with-open-ports, browse-url): New functions for latest slib.
529 Implementations taken from Template.scm (public domain).
530 (open-file): Extend core definition to accept symbols for the mode,
531 required by latest slib.
532 (delete-file): Replace core definition with version returning #t/#f as
534 (system): Mark as #:replace to suppress override warning, use new
535 style "(@ (guile) system)" to call core function.
537 2004-05-25 Matthias Koeppe <mkoeppe@mail.math.uni-magdeburg.de>
539 * format.scm: Remove the arbitrary limit of 100 iterations for the
540 ~{...~} control structure.
542 2004-07-10 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
544 * and-let-star.scm (and-let*): Remove unused variable "val".
545 * pretty-print.scm (read-macro-prefix): Remove unused variable "tail".
547 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Add srfi-6 which is in the core.
549 * safe-r5rs.scm (re-export): Uncomment numerator, denominator,
550 rationalize, since they now exist.
552 2004-07-05 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
554 * slib.scm (system): Correction to redefinition, now guile is stricter
555 about when a define binding comes into existance.
557 2004-05-29 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
559 * boot-9.scm: Reordered definitions such that macro definitions
560 preceed their first usage. Include and define deprecated stuff
561 late in the file to have a better change of detecting accidental
562 uses of deprecated definitions. Further, unified the layout a
563 little and grouped definitions more cleanly into topics.
565 2004-05-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
567 * history.scm (use-value-history): Use resolve-interface instead
568 of resolve-module so that only the exported bindings are searched.
569 (save-value-history): Export the newly defined variable. Reported
570 by Wolfgang Jaehrling.
572 2004-05-04 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
574 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): Always start searching from the
575 root module. This will allow the C equivalent scm_resolve_module

587 2004-02-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
589 * debugger/trap-hooks.scm (debug-hook-membership): New, exported.
591 * debugger/commands.scm (debug-trap-hooks): New, exported.
593 2004-02-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
595 * debugger/breakpoints/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES),
596 debugger/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES), Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES): Use
597 this variable instead of ETAGS_ARGS so that TAGS can be built
598 using separate build directory.
600 2004-01-20 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
602 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Back out 2003-11-19 change to

613 accordance with slib spec.
615 Revert this, it breaks test-suite/tests/r5rs_pitfalls.test where

617 ought to support this sort of thing, but it doesn't right now.)
618 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
619 to depend on expansion environment.

631 2004-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
633 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
634 to depend on expansion environment.
636 * slib.scm (-1+, <?, <=?, =?, >?, >=?): Define as aliases for 1-, <,
637 <=, =, >, >= respectively, required by slib 'rev2-procedures but no
638 longer in the guile core.
640 2003-11-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
642 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Defer lookup of

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

684 * ftw.scm (directory-files): Close dir-stream when done. Thanks
687 2003-10-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
689 * poe.scm (funcq-assoc): Rewrite, don't assume '() is false, and
690 actually traverse the given alist.
692 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
694 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
698 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
700 * debugger/ui-client.scm (ui-disable-async-thread,
701 ui-continue-async-thread, start-async-ui-thread): New.
702 (ui-command-loop): Call ui-disable-async-thread and
703 ui-continue-async-thread.
704 (handle-instruction): Read terminating newline char so it doesn't
705 cause following select to pop immediately.

709 * debugger/ui-client.scm, debugger/ui-server.scm: New (work in

712 2003-09-24 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
714 * debugger.scm (default-default-lazy-handler, debug-on-error):
717 * debugger/behaviour.scm (debug-if-flag-set): Display debug entry

736 2003-09-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
738 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
739 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
740 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
741 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
742 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
744 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
746 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
747 the obarray, not an empty vector.
748 (make-module): Always construct a hashtable for the obarray, even
751 * format.scm (format:error): Use 'format:format' instead of
752 'format' since the latter will lock the mutex again that we have
754 (format:format-work): Flag multiple '#' as an error.
756 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
758 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
759 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
761 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
763 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
764 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
765 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
767 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
768 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
770 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
772 * threads.scm (parallel): For no forms, use `(values)' not `(begin)'.

791 instead of substring-move-left! or substring-move-right!. Thanks
794 * deprecated.scm (substring-move-left!, substring-move-right!):
797 * boot-9.scm (display-usage-report): Use keyword->symbol instead
798 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.
800 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-get-handle): Pass only the expected four
801 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
803 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
804 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
806 2003-04-25 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kvast.blakulla.net>
808 * serialize.scm: New file.
810 2003-04-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
812 * threads.scm (n-for-each-par-map): New procedure.

834 2003-03-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
836 * format.scm (format:out-substr): Update the column counter
837 correctly. This fixes the behavior of ~T (tabbing) after ~F, for
838 instance. Thanks to Matthias Koeppe!
840 2003-03-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
842 * session.scm (apropos): Don't look in duplicates interface.
844 2003-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
846 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers): Make sure the merge-generics
847 and merge-accessors handlers are available also before (oop goops)
848 has been loaded. This is so that people can put them as default
849 handlers without worrying about availability.

953 (Thanks to Kevin Ryde.)
955 2003-01-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>

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

1061 removing it in my patch from 2002-11-16.
1063 2002-11-24 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1065 Thanks to Mikael Djurfeldt for a bugreport which led to the
1068 * slib.scm (%system-define): Removed.
1070 (define): Changed to use define-private instead of

1074 until Guile supports hygienic macros.
1076 2002-11-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1078 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it
1079 has been removed from the core.

1124 * format.scm (format): Wrap a monitor around format:format since

1127 2002-10-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

1173 should be unnecessary now.
1175 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1177 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in
1178 guile-user-module (should it be there?) instead of
1181 2002-10-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1183 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use 2 as the limit when saving the stack.
1184 (error-catching-loop): use call-with-blocked-asyncs and
1185 call-with-unblocked-asyncs instead of mask-signals and
1188 2002-10-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1190 * buffered-input.scm (make-buffered-input-port): Build an
1191 input-waiting thunk for just extended version of make-soft-port.

1201 limit the signal stack.
1203 2002-09-15 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1205 * boot-9.scm (feature?): Added deprecation message.
1207 2002-09-14 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1209 * boot-9.scm (sqrt): minor indentation fix.
1211 2002-09-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

1217 2002-09-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1219 * syncase.scm (expansion-eval-closure, env->eval-closure): New.
1220 (sc-macro): Set the expansion-eval-closure expanding the form.
1221 (putprop, getprop): Use the expansion-eval-closure to find
1222 variables instead of the current module.
1224 2002-07-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

1254 print long real numbers with large positive and negative
1257 2002-05-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1259 * syncase.scm: Use (ice-9 threads) so that with-mutex is defined.

1282 * boot-9.scm: Comment grammar fixes; nfc.
1283 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
1285 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1287 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
1288 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
1289 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
1291 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
1293 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>
1295 * regex.scm: Add commentary; nfc.
1297 2002-02-05 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>
1299 * Makefile.am: Include $(top_srcdir)/pre-inst-guile.am.
1301 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
1303 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1305 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
1306 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
1307 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
1308 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
1310 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1312 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1314 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
1315 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
1316 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
1318 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1320 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have
1323 2001-11-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1325 * boot-9.scm (turn-on-debugging): New function, to be used by
1326 scm_compile_shell_switches.
1328 * debug.scm: Do not enable debugging and recording of source
1331 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1333 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
1334 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
1335 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
1337 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
1338 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

1342 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
1343 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
1344 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
1345 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
1348 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1350 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
1353 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1355 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
1356 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
1357 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
1358 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
1360 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1362 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
1363 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
1364 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
1367 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
1369 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
1371 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>

1380 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
1382 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1384 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
1385 the `arglist' procedure property.
1386 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
1387 present a more detailed argument list.
1389 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1391 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1393 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
1394 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
1397 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1399 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
1401 (feature?): Deprecated.

1412 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
1413 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!'.
1415 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated
1418 * format.scm: Remove deprecated definition of format that was
1419 needed to trick export.
1421 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1423 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
1425 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1427 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
1429 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
1431 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1433 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
1434 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
1435 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
1437 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1439 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
1440 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
1442 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1444 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
1446 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1448 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
1449 Touch up docstrings.
1452 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1454 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
1455 last-command fluid is not yet set.
1457 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1459 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
1461 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
1462 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
1463 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
1465 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
1467 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
1468 handle :use-syntax correctly.
1470 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1472 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
1473 compile-psyntax.scm.
1475 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1477 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
1478 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
1479 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
1480 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
1481 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
1483 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1485 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
1486 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
1487 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
1489 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1491 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
1492 primitives. Thanks Neil!
1494 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1496 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
1497 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
1498 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
1499 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
1501 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
1502 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
1503 since there aren't definitions for them.
1505 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
1506 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
1508 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1510 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
1511 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
1513 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1515 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
1516 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
1518 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1520 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
1521 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
1522 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
1524 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1526 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
1528 * tags.scm: Removed file.
1530 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1532 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
1533 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
1535 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
1536 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
1537 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
1540 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1542 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
1543 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
1545 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1547 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
1548 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
1550 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
1551 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
1552 evaluator trap options.)
1554 2001-06-25 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1556 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
1558 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1560 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.

1564 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
1566 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1568 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
1569 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
1571 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1574 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
1575 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
1576 No longer require `pretty-print'.
1578 (slib:error): Delete.
1579 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
1581 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1586 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
1590 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1592 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
1593 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
1594 rdelim) module. See below.
1596 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1598 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
1599 include-deprecated-features is true.
1601 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1603 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
1606 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
1607 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
1608 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1610 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
1611 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
1612 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
1615 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1617 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
1618 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
1619 variable, not just a visible one.
1620 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
1621 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
1622 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
1623 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
1624 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
1625 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
1627 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
1629 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
1630 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
1632 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1634 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
1635 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
1637 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1639 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
1641 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1643 Added exception notice to all files.
1645 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
1646 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
1647 importing bindings once in a while.
1649 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1651 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
1652 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
1653 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1654 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
1655 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
1656 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
1657 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
1658 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
1660 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
1661 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
1663 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1665 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
1666 fix command so that it works.
1668 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
1669 to access unbound variables.
1671 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
1672 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
1673 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
1674 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
1675 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
1677 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1679 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
1680 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
1681 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
1682 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
1683 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
1684 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
1685 argument for process-define-module.
1686 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
1687 arguments for process-use-modules.
1688 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
1690 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1692 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
1693 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
1694 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
1697 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
1698 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
1699 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
1701 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
1703 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1705 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules
1707 (cond-expand): Use feature information associated with modules.
1709 2001-05-21 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1711 * boot-9.scm (use-srfis): Do not extend the srfi-0 feature list.
1712 (cond-expand-provide): New procedure.
1714 2001-05-22 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1716 * boot-9.scm (define-module): Return the new module.
1717 (process-define-module): Use `spec' instead of `module-name' when
1718 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1720 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1722 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
1723 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!

1741 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
1742 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
1743 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
1744 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
1745 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
1746 element list when adding "." to it.
1747 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
1748 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
1750 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1752 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
1754 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
1755 now accepts arg; update callers.
1756 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
1757 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
1759 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
1760 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.

1812 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1813 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1814 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1815 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1816 `set-current-module' call.
1817 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1818 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

2049 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
2051 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
2052 make-buffered-input-port.
2054 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

2114 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2116 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
2117 `interaction-evironment'.
2118 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
2120 (eval-when): New macro.
2121 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
2122 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
2123 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
2125 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the

2144 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2146 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
2149 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to

2161 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
2163 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to
2164 conveniently define a group of option interface functions.
2166 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
2167 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
2169 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>

2185 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
2187 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2189 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
2190 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
2191 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
2192 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
2193 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
2194 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
2195 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
2197 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2199 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
2200 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
2202 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2204 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
2207 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2209 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
2212 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
2214 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
2216 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2218 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
2219 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
2220 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
2221 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
2222 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
2223 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
2224 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2225 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
2226 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
2227 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
2228 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
2229 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
2230 make-shared-substring.
2232 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2234 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
2235 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
2236 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
2237 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
2240 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2242 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
2243 and open-output-pipe.
2245 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2247 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
2248 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
2249 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
2250 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
2251 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
2252 Pirotte for the bug report).
2253 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
2254 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
2256 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2258 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

2265 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2267 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): regexp-exec does not
2268 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
2271 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2273 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
2276 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
2278 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
2279 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
2280 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
2282 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
2283 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
2284 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
2285 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
2286 actual documentation entries themselves.
2288 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2290 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
2292 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2294 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
2296 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2298 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
2299 Convert first argument to a string.
2301 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
2302 getter-and-setter-syntax,
2303 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
2304 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
2306 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
2308 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
2310 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2312 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
2314 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2316 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
2318 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
2320 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
2321 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
2322 even worked... /mdj.
2323 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
2325 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
2328 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2330 * psyntax.ss (set!): Added generalized set! support to core syntax

2346 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2348 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
2351 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2353 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
2354 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
2355 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
2356 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
2357 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
2359 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
2361 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2363 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
2364 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
2366 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
2369 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
2370 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
2371 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
2372 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
2374 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
2376 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
2377 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
2379 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
2381 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
2382 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
2384 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
2386 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
2387 definition of module-type.
2389 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
2391 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
2393 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
2395 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
2396 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
2398 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2400 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
2402 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2404 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
2405 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
2406 Mikael for the suggestion.
2408 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2410 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
2411 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
2413 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2415 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
2418 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2420 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
2422 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2424 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
2425 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
2428 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
2429 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
2432 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2434 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
2435 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
2437 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
2438 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
2439 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
2441 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
2443 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
2445 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2447 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
2448 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
2450 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2452 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
2453 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
2455 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2457 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
2458 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
2460 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2462 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
2464 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2466 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
2468 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2470 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
2472 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
2473 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
2475 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
2477 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
2480 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
2481 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
2482 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
2483 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
2486 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
2488 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
2490 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2492 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
2493 (write-all): Removed.
2494 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
2495 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
2497 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
2499 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
2500 `proc-documentation'
2502 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
2503 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
2504 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
2505 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
2506 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
2507 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
2508 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
2511 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2513 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
2515 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2517 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
2518 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
2519 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
2522 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2524 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
2525 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
2526 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
2527 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
2528 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
2529 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
2530 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
2532 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2534 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
2535 accept complex numbers as parameter.
2537 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2539 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
2540 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
2542 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2544 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
2545 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
2546 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
2547 instead of remove-if when iterating.
2548 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
2549 delete-if! when iterating.
2551 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2553 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
2555 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2557 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
2559 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2561 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
2562 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
2563 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
2564 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
2566 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2568 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
2569 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
2571 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2573 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
2574 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
2575 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
2576 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
2578 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
2580 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
2581 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
2583 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2585 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
2586 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
2588 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2590 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
2593 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2595 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
2596 source of the numerous very short changes.
2598 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2600 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
2603 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
2606 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2608 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
2611 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2613 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
2614 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
2616 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2618 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
2621 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2623 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
2624 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
2625 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
2627 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2629 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
2630 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
2631 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
2632 Narazaki for this change.
2634 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2636 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
2637 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
2640 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
2641 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
2643 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2645 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
2646 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
2648 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2650 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
2651 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
2652 use define-public to export from the module.
2654 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2656 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
2657 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
2658 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
2660 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2662 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
2664 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2666 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
2667 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
2669 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2671 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
2673 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
2675 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
2677 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2679 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
2680 long_long uniform vectors.
2682 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2684 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
2685 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
2687 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2689 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
2690 script to create generated files like this one.
2692 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2694 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2695 available before using getpw and getuid.
2696 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2697 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2699 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2700 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2701 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2703 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2704 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2705 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2707 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2708 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2710 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2712 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2714 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2715 than 'exit-debugger.
2717 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2718 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2720 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.

2727 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2728 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.

2736 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
2739 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2741 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2742 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2744 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2746 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2748 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2750 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2751 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2753 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2754 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2755 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2757 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2760 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2762 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2763 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2765 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2767 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2769 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2770 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2771 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2772 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2774 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2777 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2778 both forward and backward views of the stack
2779 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2780 Use selector `frame-number';
2781 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2782 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2784 Use readline conditionally.
2786 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2788 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2789 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2790 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2792 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2793 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2796 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2798 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2800 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2802 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2804 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2806 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2808 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2809 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2810 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2811 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2812 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2813 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2814 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2815 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2816 libguile-config-stamp.
2817 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2818 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2819 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2820 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2821 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2823 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2825 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2826 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2827 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2829 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2830 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2831 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2832 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2835 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2837 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2839 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2841 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2843 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2844 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2846 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2848 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2849 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2850 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2851 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2852 objects starting with '#/'.
2854 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2856 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2857 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2858 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2859 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2860 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2861 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2863 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2864 module-modified): New procedures.
2865 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2866 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2868 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2870 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2873 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2875 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2876 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2877 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2879 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2882 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2884 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2885 at multiple calls to read.
2886 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2887 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2888 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2889 continued-lines prompt.
2891 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2892 reading expressions.
2894 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2896 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2897 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2899 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2901 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2902 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2905 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2907 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2908 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2910 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2911 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2912 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2913 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2914 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2917 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2919 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2920 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2922 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2924 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2925 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2926 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2927 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2929 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2931 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2933 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2934 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2935 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2938 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2940 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2941 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2942 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2943 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2944 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2945 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2946 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2947 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2948 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2949 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2950 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2952 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2954 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2955 peeked from the stream.
2956 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2957 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2958 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2960 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2962 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2963 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2965 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2967 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2968 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2969 exiting repl with single control-D.
2971 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2973 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2974 error catching loop after quit received.
2975 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2977 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2978 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2979 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2981 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2982 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2984 * popen.scm: new file.
2986 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2988 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2989 (reverse-iota): removed.
2991 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2993 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2994 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2996 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2998 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2999 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
3000 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
3001 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3002 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
3004 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3006 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
3008 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
3009 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3011 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
3012 Guile's module system.
3014 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
3016 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
3017 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
3018 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
3019 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
3020 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
3021 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
3023 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
3024 '() when the condition is false.
3026 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3028 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3030 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3032 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
3034 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3036 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
3037 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
3038 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
3040 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3042 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
3043 argument order for hash-fold.
3045 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3047 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
3049 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
3050 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
3052 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
3053 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
3054 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
3055 has been added to the load path).
3057 Use try-load-module.
3059 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3061 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
3062 module between system and user state.
3064 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3066 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
3068 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
3071 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3073 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
3074 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
3075 system can create a wrapper class for it.
3077 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3079 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
3080 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
3081 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
3082 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
3083 stack frame encountered.
3085 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
3086 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
3087 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
3088 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
3091 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
3092 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
3093 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
3094 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
3097 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
3098 define-module switches:
3100 (define-module (foo)
3103 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
3106 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
3107 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
3108 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
3109 module it is a system frame.
3111 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
3112 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
3113 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
3114 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
3115 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
3117 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
3118 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
3119 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
3120 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
3121 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
3122 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
3124 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
3125 status of a module.;
3126 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
3127 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
3129 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
3130 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
3131 closure to the module.
3133 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
3135 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3137 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
3139 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
3141 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
3143 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3145 Fix from Russ McManus:
3146 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
3147 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
3148 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
3149 either an optional or required value.
3151 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
3153 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
3155 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
3156 of the '() key, not `rest'.
3158 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
3159 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
3160 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
3161 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3163 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
3165 * optargs.scm: New file.
3166 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
3167 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
3169 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3171 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
3172 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
3173 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3175 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3177 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
3178 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
3181 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3183 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3185 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3187 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
3188 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
3189 applied to the module itself.
3191 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3193 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
3195 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
3196 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
3198 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3200 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
3202 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3204 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
3206 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
3208 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
3209 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
3211 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3213 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
3214 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
3215 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
3216 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
3217 among BINDINGS is referenced.
3218 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
3219 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
3221 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3223 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
3224 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
3226 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
3228 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
3229 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
3232 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3234 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
3236 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3238 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
3240 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3242 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
3243 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
3244 adapt to the new hooks.
3246 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3248 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
3249 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
3250 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
3252 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
3253 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
3255 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
3256 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
3257 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
3258 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
3259 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
3260 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
3261 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
3262 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
3263 first to register linked modules.
3265 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
3266 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
3267 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
3269 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
3270 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
3271 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
3272 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
3274 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
3276 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
3279 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
3280 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
3281 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
3283 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3285 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
3286 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
3287 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
3289 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3291 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
3292 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
3293 result of the last form.
3295 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3297 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
3300 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
3302 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
3303 readline-set!: New options interface.
3305 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
3307 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3309 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
3310 at the end of boot-9.scm.
3312 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3314 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
3315 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
3317 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3319 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
3320 interactive session.
3321 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
3323 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
3324 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
3326 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3328 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
3330 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3332 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
3333 read line was empty.
3335 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3337 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
3338 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
3340 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
3342 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
3344 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
3345 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
3346 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
3348 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
3349 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
3351 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
3352 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
3353 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
3355 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
3356 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
3357 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
3358 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
3359 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
3360 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
3362 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3364 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
3365 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3367 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3369 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
3370 and short vectors #h(...).
3372 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3374 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
3375 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
3376 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
3378 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3380 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
3381 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
3382 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
3384 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3386 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
3387 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
3389 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
3390 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
3391 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
3392 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
3394 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3396 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
3399 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
3400 order to allow the empty list as arg.
3401 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
3402 context with traps enabled.
3404 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3406 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
3408 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
3410 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3412 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
3413 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
3414 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
3415 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
3416 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
3418 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3420 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
3421 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
3423 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3425 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
3427 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3429 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
3431 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3433 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
3435 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3437 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
3438 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
3440 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
3442 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
3443 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
3444 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
3445 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
3448 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
3449 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
3450 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
3452 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3454 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
3455 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
3456 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
3457 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
3458 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
3459 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
3460 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
3462 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3464 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
3466 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3468 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
3469 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
3470 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
3471 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
3472 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
3473 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
3475 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3477 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
3478 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
3479 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
3482 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3484 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
3486 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3488 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
3490 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3492 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
3495 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3497 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
3499 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3501 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
3502 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
3504 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3506 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
3507 similar in use to `use-modules'.
3508 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
3509 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
3511 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
3512 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
3514 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3516 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
3518 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3520 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
3521 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
3524 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
3525 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
3527 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
3528 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
3529 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
3531 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
3533 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3535 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
3537 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
3538 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
3540 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3542 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
3544 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3546 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
3547 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
3549 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
3551 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
3554 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3556 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
3557 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
3559 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3561 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
3563 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3565 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
3568 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3570 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
3571 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
3572 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
3573 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
3574 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
3577 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3579 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
3580 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
3581 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
3583 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3585 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
3587 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
3588 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
3590 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3592 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
3593 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
3594 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
3595 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
3596 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
3597 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
3598 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
3601 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3603 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
3606 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3608 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
3609 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
3610 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
3611 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
3612 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
3613 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
3615 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3617 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
3618 usefully so they will work from a script.
3620 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3622 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
3623 neighborhood of the record code.
3625 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3627 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
3628 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
3629 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
3630 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
3632 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3634 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
3635 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
3636 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3638 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3640 Add support for readline function.
3641 * readline.scm: New module.
3642 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
3643 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
3644 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
3646 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
3647 repl-reader to use them.
3648 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
3650 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
3652 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3654 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3655 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
3657 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3659 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
3660 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
3661 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
3663 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3665 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
3666 #f, abort terminates the process.
3667 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
3668 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
3670 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3672 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
3673 print-state, throw it away.
3675 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3677 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
3680 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3682 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
3683 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
3684 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
3685 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
3687 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
3688 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
3690 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3692 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3694 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3696 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3697 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3698 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3699 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3700 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3702 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3703 distribution and installation.
3704 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3706 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3708 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3710 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3712 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3713 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3714 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3716 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3717 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3720 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3722 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3724 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3726 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3728 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3729 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3730 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3731 field a separate argument.
3733 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3735 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3737 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3739 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3743 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3745 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3747 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3749 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3750 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3751 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3752 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3753 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3754 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3756 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3757 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3758 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3759 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3760 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3763 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3765 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
3767 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3769 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3770 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3772 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3774 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3776 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3777 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3778 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3779 expansion inside the slib module.
3781 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3783 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3784 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
3785 (let): New core form.
3786 (if): Removed from core language.
3787 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
3788 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
3789 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3791 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3792 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3793 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3795 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3796 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3799 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3801 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3802 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3804 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3806 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3807 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3808 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3809 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3810 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3811 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3812 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3813 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
3815 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
3817 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3819 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3821 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3822 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3823 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3824 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3825 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3827 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3828 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3829 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3831 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3832 the syncase interface.
3834 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3836 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3837 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3838 workings of the current module system).
3840 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3842 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3843 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
3846 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3848 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
3849 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3850 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3852 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3854 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3855 according to the following priorities:
3856 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3857 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3859 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3860 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3861 (new-interpreter): New function.
3863 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3864 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote

3867 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3869 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3871 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3873 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

3883 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3884 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

3889 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3890 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.

3905 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3907 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3909 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
3910 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
3912 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
3913 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
3915 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
3917 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3919 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling

3936 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
3939 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3941 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3942 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3943 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3945 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3946 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3949 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3950 order to narrow it correctly.
3951 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
3953 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3955 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
3956 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
3958 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3960 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3962 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3964 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3965 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3967 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3969 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3970 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3971 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3973 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3975 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
3978 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3980 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
3981 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
3982 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
3983 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
3984 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
3986 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3988 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
3989 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
3992 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
3994 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3996 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
3997 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
3998 notation, instead of #/ notation.
4000 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to

4005 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
4006 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
4007 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
4008 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
4009 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
4010 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
4012 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
4013 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
4014 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
4015 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
4017 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
4019 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
4020 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
4021 sending in bug reports.
4022 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
4023 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
4024 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
4025 display a warning if the two are different.
4026 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
4027 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
4028 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
4030 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
4032 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
4034 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
4036 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
4037 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
4039 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
4040 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
4041 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
4042 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
4043 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
4044 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
4047 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
4048 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
4051 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
4052 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
4054 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
4057 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
4060 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

4065 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4067 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
4068 vtable and not the one of the struct.
4070 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4072 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
4073 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
4074 to support printing of structures.
4075 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
4076 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
4077 commented out printing code.
4078 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
4079 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
4081 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4083 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
4085 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4087 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
4088 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
4089 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
4090 during call to scm-style-repl.
4092 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4094 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
4095 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
4096 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
4097 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
4098 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
4100 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4102 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
4103 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
4106 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
4108 * regex.scm: New file.
4109 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
4110 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
4112 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4114 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
4115 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
4116 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
4117 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
4119 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4121 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
4124 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4126 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
4127 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
4128 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
4130 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4132 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
4133 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
4136 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4138 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
4140 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4142 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
4144 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4146 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
4147 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
4150 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4152 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
4153 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
4154 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
4156 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4158 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
4159 the Scheme code like code yet.
4160 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
4162 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4164 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
4165 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
4166 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
4168 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4170 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
4172 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
4175 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4177 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
4179 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4181 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
4183 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
4184 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
4185 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
4187 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4189 Get 'make dist' to work again.
4190 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
4191 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
4193 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
4195 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
4196 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
4198 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4200 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
4203 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>

4207 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4209 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
4210 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
4212 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4214 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
4215 instead of in libguile.
4216 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
4217 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
4219 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4221 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
4223 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
4224 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
4226 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4228 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
4229 sockaddr:port): new functions.
4231 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4233 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
4234 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
4235 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
4236 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
4238 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4240 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
4241 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
4243 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4245 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
4247 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4249 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
4250 keywords and symbols.
4252 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4254 * slib.scm: update read usage.
4256 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
4257 Don't define read-sharp.
4259 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
4260 (read-sharp): removed.
4261 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
4262 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
4264 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4266 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
4268 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
4269 primitive procedure.)
4271 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
4272 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
4274 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4276 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
4278 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4280 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
4282 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4284 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
4286 * (exit): alias for quit.
4288 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4290 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
4291 return the quit args.
4292 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
4293 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
4294 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
4296 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
4298 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4300 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
4302 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
4303 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
4305 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
4306 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
4308 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
4309 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
4312 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4314 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
4316 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
4317 (add-hooks!): New macro.
4318 Change hooks to use these functions.
4320 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
4321 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
4322 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
4324 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
4325 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
4326 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
4327 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
4328 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
4329 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
4330 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
4333 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
4334 and exit-frame exceptions.
4336 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
4337 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
4338 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
4339 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
4340 result; otherwise display "> ".
4341 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
4343 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
4344 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
4345 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
4346 repository version runnable.
4348 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4350 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
4351 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
4352 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
4353 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
4354 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
4355 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
4357 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4359 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
4360 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
4362 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
4364 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
4365 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
4367 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4369 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
4371 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4373 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
4376 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4378 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
4379 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
4381 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4383 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
4386 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4388 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
4389 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
4391 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4393 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
4395 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
4396 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
4397 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
4398 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
4399 dynamic linking of modules.
4400 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
4401 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
4403 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4405 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
4407 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4409 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
4412 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
4413 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
4416 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4418 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
4419 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
4420 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
4422 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4424 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
4425 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
4428 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4430 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
4431 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
4432 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
4434 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4436 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
4437 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
4438 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
4439 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
4441 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
4442 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
4443 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
4444 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
4445 (such as the-scm-module).
4447 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4449 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
4452 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
4454 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
4455 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
4456 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
4458 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
4460 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
4461 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
4462 function, use it accordingly.
4464 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4466 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
4467 function of no arguments.
4468 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
4469 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
4470 set-current-module): Uses changed.
4471 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
4472 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
4473 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
4474 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
4475 *top-level-eval-closure*.
4477 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4479 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
4480 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
4482 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4484 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
4485 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
4486 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
4487 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
4488 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
4490 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
4493 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
4494 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
4495 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
4496 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
4498 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
4500 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
4502 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
4503 If the user wants to see this, he can do
4504 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
4506 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
4509 Added `before-read-hook'.
4511 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
4513 (provide): New function.
4515 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
4518 (backtrace): New function.
4520 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
4521 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
4522 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
4523 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
4524 is found in operator position in a frame.
4526 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
4529 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
4530 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
4531 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
4533 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
4535 (library-vicinity): Updated.
4537 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
4539 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
4541 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4543 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
4545 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
4546 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
4548 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
4549 so they'll get distributed.
4551 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
4552 should see as little clutter as possible.
4553 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
4554 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
4555 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
4557 * r4rs.scm: New file.
4558 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
4559 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
4560 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
4561 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
4562 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
4563 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
4564 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
4565 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
4566 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
4568 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
4569 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
4571 * test.scm: New file.
4573 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
4574 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
4575 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
4577 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
4578 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
4580 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
4582 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
4583 call %load-announce.
4585 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4587 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
4588 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
4589 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
4591 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
4593 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4595 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
4596 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
4597 SCSH (which this isn't).
4599 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4601 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4603 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4605 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
4606 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
4607 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
4609 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
4610 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
4611 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
4612 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
4615 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4617 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
4619 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
4621 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
4622 error-catching-loop.
4623 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
4624 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
4625 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
4627 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
4628 error-catching-loop.
4630 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4632 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
4633 (make-module): Rework for readability.
4634 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
4635 should be '(), not #f.
4637 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
4638 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
4640 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4642 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
4643 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
4646 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4648 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
4649 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
4650 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
4651 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
4653 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4655 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
4657 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4659 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
4661 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
4662 throw-handler-default.
4663 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
4665 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
4667 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
4668 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
4670 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4672 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
4673 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
4674 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
4675 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
4677 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4679 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
4680 Append "." to the default %load-path.
4681 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
4682 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
4684 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
4685 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
4686 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
4687 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
4690 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4692 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4694 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4697 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4700 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4702 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4704 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4705 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4707 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4709 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4711 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4713 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4715 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4716 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4717 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4718 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4719 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4721 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4722 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4723 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4724 they seem redundant.
4725 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4726 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4727 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4728 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4729 directly files starting with "/").
4730 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4731 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4733 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4735 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4737 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4738 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4739 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4740 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4741 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4742 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4743 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4744 robust to just do it in the C code.
4746 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4748 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4749 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4750 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4751 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4752 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4754 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4756 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4757 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4758 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4760 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4762 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4763 system-error, not every kind of error.
4764 (scm-error): new procedure.
4766 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4768 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4770 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4772 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4773 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4774 of args are supplied.
4775 (%%system-errors): removed.
4776 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4777 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4778 %%handle-system-error.
4779 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4780 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4781 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4782 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4784 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4786 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4787 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4788 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4789 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4791 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4793 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4794 the empty list if they are #f.
4795 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4797 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4799 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4801 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4802 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4803 aborting, just the key and subr.
4804 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4805 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4806 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4808 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4810 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4811 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4812 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4813 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4814 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4816 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4818 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4819 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4820 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4821 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4823 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4825 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4826 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4827 initialize %load-path.
4829 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4830 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4832 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4834 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4835 Add the directory named after the version number.
4836 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4837 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4838 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4839 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4840 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4841 (install): Create the above directories.
4842 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4843 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4845 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4847 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4848 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4849 in the Makefile directly.
4850 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4852 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4854 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4855 here, where people expect to find them.
4857 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4859 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4860 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4862 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4864 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
