5 * boot-9.scm: Comment grammar fixes; nfc.
6 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
8 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
10 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
11 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
12 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
14 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
16 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>
18 * regex.scm: Add commentary; nfc.
20 2002-02-05 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

24 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
26 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
28 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
29 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
30 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
31 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
33 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
35 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
37 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
38 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
39 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
41 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
43 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

49 scm_compile_shell_switches.
51 * debug.scm: Do not enable debugging and recording of source
54 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
56 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
57 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
58 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
60 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
61 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

65 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
66 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
67 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
68 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
71 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
73 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
76 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
78 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
79 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
80 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
81 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
83 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
85 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
86 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
87 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of

92 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
94 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>
96 * expect.scm: Commentary fix; nfc.
98 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): Fix typo.
100 2001-09-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
102 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Reference compile-psyntax.scm in
103 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
105 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
107 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
108 the `arglist' procedure property.
109 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
110 present a more detailed argument list.
112 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
114 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
116 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
117 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
120 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
122 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
124 (feature?): Deprecated.

135 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
136 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
138 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated
141 * format.scm: Remove deprecated definition of format that was
142 needed to trick export.
144 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
146 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
148 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

154 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
156 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
157 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
158 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
160 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
162 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
163 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
165 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
167 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
169 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
171 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
175 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
177 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
178 last-command fluid is not yet set.
180 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
182 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
184 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
185 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
186 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
188 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
190 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
191 handle :use-syntax correctly.
193 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
195 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
198 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
200 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
201 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
202 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
203 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
204 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
206 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
208 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
209 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
210 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
212 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
214 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
215 primitives. Thanks Neil!
217 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
219 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
220 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
221 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
222 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
224 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
225 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
226 since there aren't definitions for them.
228 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
229 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
231 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
233 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
234 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
236 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
238 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
239 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
241 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
243 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
244 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
245 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
247 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
249 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
251 * tags.scm: Removed file.
253 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
255 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
256 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
258 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
259 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
260 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
263 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
265 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
266 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
268 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
270 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
271 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
273 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
274 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
275 evaluator trap options.)

279 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
281 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
283 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
285 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
287 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
289 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
291 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
292 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
294 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
297 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
298 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
299 No longer require `pretty-print'.
301 (slib:error): Delete.
302 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
304 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
309 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
313 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
315 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
316 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
317 rdelim) module. See below.
319 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
321 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
322 include-deprecated-features is true.
324 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
326 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
329 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
330 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
331 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
333 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
334 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
335 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
338 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
340 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
341 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
342 variable, not just a visible one.
343 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
344 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
345 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
346 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
347 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
348 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
350 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
352 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
353 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
355 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
357 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
358 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
360 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
362 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
364 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
366 Added exception notice to all files.
368 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
369 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
370 importing bindings once in a while.
372 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
374 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
375 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
376 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
377 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
378 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
379 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
380 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
381 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
383 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
384 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
386 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
388 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
389 fix command so that it works.
391 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
392 to access unbound variables.
394 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
395 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
396 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
397 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
398 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
400 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
402 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
403 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
404 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
405 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
406 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
407 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
408 argument for process-define-module.
409 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
410 arguments for process-use-modules.
411 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
413 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
415 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
416 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
417 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
420 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
421 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
422 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
424 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
426 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
428 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules
430 (cond-expand): Use feature information associated with modules.

435 (cond-expand-provide): New procedure.
437 2001-05-22 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
439 * boot-9.scm (define-module): Return the new module.
440 (process-define-module): Use `spec' instead of `module-name' when
441 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
443 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
445 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
446 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
448 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
451 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
453 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
454 * match.scm: Likewise.
455 * expect.scm: Likewise.
456 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
458 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
460 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
462 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
464 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
465 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
466 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
467 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
468 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
469 element list when adding "." to it.
470 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
471 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
473 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
475 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
477 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
478 now accepts arg; update callers.
479 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
480 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
482 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
483 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
484 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
485 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
486 `search-documentation-files'.
487 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
488 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
489 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
491 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
492 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
494 (find-documentation): Delete.
495 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
496 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.
498 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
500 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
501 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.
502 (use-srfis): New procedure.
504 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
506 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if
507 used module's public interface is not available.
508 No longer call `beautify-user-module!'.
509 Signal error now also if selected binding not found.
511 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
513 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
515 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
517 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
519 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
520 the magical undefined value.
521 (let-o-k-template): Use `#f' instead of the undefined value as
522 the default default for bindings.
524 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to
525 make-undefined-variable, use `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
526 (root-module-closure): Removed.
527 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
528 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
529 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
530 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
531 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
532 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
533 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
534 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
535 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
536 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
537 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
538 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
539 `set-current-module' call.
540 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
541 set-current-module. It is redefined later.
543 * debug.scm: Use `module-set!' instead of `variable-set!' to set
544 insert `debug-options' into the-root-module.
545 * format.scm: Likewise, for `format'.

549 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-repl): Call the E
550 ("eval'er") procedure via call-with-values and call the P

555 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Reduce feature list to built-in
558 2001-05-14 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
560 * boot-9.scm (-1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags):
563 2001-05-11 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
565 * boot-9.scm: Added `cond-expand' (SRFI-0) for portable feature
568 2001-05-10 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
570 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): Abstraction maintenance: Use
571 `module-public-interface'.

912 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
913 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
914 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
915 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
916 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
917 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
918 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
920 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

937 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
939 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
941 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
942 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
943 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm

963 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
965 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
966 and open-output-pipe.
968 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
970 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
971 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
972 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
973 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
974 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
975 Pirotte for the bug report).
976 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
977 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
979 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
981 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1002 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1003 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1005 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1006 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1007 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1008 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1009 actual documentation entries themselves.

1041 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1043 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1044 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1045 even worked... /mdj.
1046 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1048 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS

1076 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1077 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1078 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1079 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1080 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)

1155 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1157 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1158 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1160 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1161 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1162 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1164 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1166 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1168 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1170 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1171 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1173 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1175 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1176 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1178 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1180 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1181 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1183 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1185 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1187 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1189 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1191 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1193 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1195 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1196 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1198 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1200 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1203 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1204 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1205 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1206 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1209 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1211 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1213 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1215 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1216 (write-all): Removed.
1217 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1218 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1220 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1222 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1223 `proc-documentation'
1225 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1226 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1227 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1228 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1229 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1230 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1231 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1234 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1236 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1238 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1240 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1241 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1242 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1245 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1247 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1248 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1249 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1250 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1251 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1252 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1253 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1255 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1257 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1258 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1260 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1262 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1263 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1265 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1267 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1268 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1269 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1270 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1271 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1272 delete-if! when iterating.
1274 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1276 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1278 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1280 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1282 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1284 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1285 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1286 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1287 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1289 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1291 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1292 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1294 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1296 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1297 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1298 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1299 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1301 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1303 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1304 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1306 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1308 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1309 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1311 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1313 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1316 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1318 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1319 source of the numerous very short changes.
1321 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1323 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1326 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1329 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1331 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1334 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1336 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1337 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1339 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1341 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1344 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1346 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1347 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1348 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1350 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1352 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1353 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1354 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1355 Narazaki for this change.
1357 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1359 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1360 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1363 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1364 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1366 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1368 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1369 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1371 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1373 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1374 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1375 use define-public to export from the module.
1377 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1379 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1380 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1381 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1383 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1385 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1387 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1389 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1390 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1392 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1394 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1396 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1398 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1400 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1402 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1403 long_long uniform vectors.
1405 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1407 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1408 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1410 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1412 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1413 script to create generated files like this one.
1415 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1417 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1418 available before using getpw and getuid.
1419 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1420 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1422 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1423 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1424 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1426 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1427 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1428 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1430 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1431 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1433 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1435 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1437 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1438 than 'exit-debugger.
1440 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1441 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1443 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1445 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1447 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1448 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1449 ("position"): New command.
1450 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1451 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1452 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1453 to return a valid state.)
1454 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1456 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1458 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1459 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1462 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1464 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1465 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1467 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1469 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1471 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1473 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1474 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1476 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1477 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1478 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1480 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1483 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1485 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1486 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1488 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1490 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1492 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1493 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1494 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1495 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1497 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1500 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1501 both forward and backward views of the stack
1502 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1503 Use selector `frame-number';
1504 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1505 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1507 Use readline conditionally.
1509 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1511 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1512 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1513 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1515 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1516 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1519 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1521 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1523 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1525 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1527 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1529 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1531 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1532 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1533 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1534 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1535 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1536 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1537 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1538 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1539 libguile-config-stamp.
1540 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1541 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1542 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1543 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1544 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1546 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1548 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1549 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1550 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1552 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1553 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1554 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1555 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1558 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1560 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1562 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1564 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1566 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1567 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1569 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1571 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1572 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1573 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1574 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1575 objects starting with '#/'.
1577 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1579 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1580 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1581 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1582 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1583 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1584 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1586 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1587 module-modified): New procedures.
1588 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1589 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1591 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1593 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1596 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1598 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1599 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1600 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1602 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1605 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1607 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1608 at multiple calls to read.
1609 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1610 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1611 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1612 continued-lines prompt.
1614 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1615 reading expressions.
1617 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1619 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1620 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1622 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1624 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1625 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1628 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1630 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1631 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1633 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1634 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1635 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1636 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1637 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1640 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1642 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1643 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1645 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1647 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1648 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1649 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1650 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1652 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1654 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1656 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1657 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1658 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1661 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1663 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1664 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1665 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1666 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1667 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1668 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1669 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1670 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1671 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1672 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1673 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1675 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1677 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1678 peeked from the stream.
1679 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1680 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1681 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1683 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1685 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1686 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1688 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1690 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1691 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1692 exiting repl with single control-D.
1694 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1696 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1697 error catching loop after quit received.
1698 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1700 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1701 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1702 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1704 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1705 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1707 * popen.scm: new file.
1709 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1711 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1712 (reverse-iota): removed.
1714 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1716 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1717 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1719 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1721 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1722 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1723 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1724 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1725 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1727 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1729 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1731 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1732 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1734 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1735 Guile's module system.
1737 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1739 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1740 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1741 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1742 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1743 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1744 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1746 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1747 '() when the condition is false.
1749 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1751 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1753 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1755 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1757 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1759 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1760 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1761 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1763 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1765 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1766 argument order for hash-fold.
1768 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1770 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1772 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1773 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1775 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1776 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1777 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1778 has been added to the load path).
1780 Use try-load-module.
1782 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1784 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1785 module between system and user state.
1787 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1789 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1791 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1794 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1796 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1797 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1798 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1800 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1802 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1803 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1804 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1805 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1806 stack frame encountered.
1808 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1809 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1810 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1811 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1814 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1815 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1816 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1817 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
1820 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
1821 define-module switches:
1823 (define-module (foo)
1826 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
1829 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
1830 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
1831 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
1832 module it is a system frame.
1834 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
1835 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
1836 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
1837 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
1838 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
1840 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
1841 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
1842 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
1843 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
1844 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
1845 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
1847 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
1848 status of a module.;
1849 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
1850 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
1852 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
1853 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
1854 closure to the module.
1856 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
1858 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1860 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
1862 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1864 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
1866 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1868 Fix from Russ McManus:
1869 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
1870 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
1871 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
1872 either an optional or required value.
1874 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1876 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
1878 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
1879 of the '() key, not `rest'.
1881 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
1882 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
1883 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
1884 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1886 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1888 * optargs.scm: New file.
1889 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
1890 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
1892 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1894 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
1895 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
1896 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1898 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1900 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
1901 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
1904 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1906 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1908 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1910 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
1911 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
1912 applied to the module itself.
1914 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1916 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
1918 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
1919 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
1921 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1923 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
1925 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1927 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
1929 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1931 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
1932 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
1934 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1936 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
1937 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
1938 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
1939 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
1940 among BINDINGS is referenced.
1941 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
1942 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
1944 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1946 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
1947 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
1949 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1951 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
1952 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
1955 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1957 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
1959 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1961 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
1963 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1965 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
1966 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
1967 adapt to the new hooks.
1969 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1971 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
1972 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
1973 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
1975 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
1976 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
1978 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
1979 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
1980 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
1981 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
1982 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
1983 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
1984 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
1985 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
1986 first to register linked modules.
1988 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
1989 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
1990 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
1992 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
1993 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
1994 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
1995 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
1997 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
1999 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2002 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2003 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2004 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2006 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2008 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2009 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2010 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2012 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2014 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2015 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2016 result of the last form.
2018 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2020 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2023 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2025 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2026 readline-set!: New options interface.
2028 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2030 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2032 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2033 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2035 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2037 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2038 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2040 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2042 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2043 interactive session.
2044 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2046 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2047 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2049 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2051 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2053 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2055 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2056 read line was empty.
2058 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2060 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2061 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2063 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2065 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2067 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2068 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2069 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2071 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2072 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2074 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2075 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2076 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2078 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2079 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2080 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2081 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2082 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2083 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2085 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2087 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2088 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2090 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2092 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2093 and short vectors #h(...).
2095 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2097 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2098 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2099 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2101 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2103 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2104 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2105 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2107 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2109 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2110 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2112 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2113 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2114 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2115 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2117 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2119 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2122 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2123 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2124 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2125 context with traps enabled.
2127 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2129 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2131 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2133 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2135 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2136 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2137 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2138 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2139 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2141 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2143 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2144 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2146 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2148 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2150 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2152 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2154 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2156 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2158 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2160 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2161 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2163 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2165 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2166 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2167 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2168 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2171 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2172 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2173 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2175 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2177 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2178 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2179 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2180 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2181 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2182 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2183 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2185 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2187 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2189 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2191 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2192 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2193 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2194 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2195 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2196 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2198 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2200 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2201 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2202 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2205 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2207 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2209 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2211 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2213 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2215 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2218 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2220 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2222 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2224 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2225 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2227 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2229 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2230 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2231 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2232 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2234 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2235 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2237 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2239 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2241 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2243 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2244 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2247 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2248 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2250 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2251 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2252 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2254 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2256 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2258 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2260 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2261 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2263 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2265 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2267 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2269 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2270 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2272 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2274 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2277 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2279 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2280 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2282 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2284 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2286 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2288 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2291 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2293 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2294 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2295 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2296 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2297 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2300 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2302 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2303 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2304 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2306 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2308 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2310 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2311 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2313 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2315 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2316 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2317 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2318 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2319 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2320 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2321 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2324 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2326 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2329 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2331 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2332 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2333 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2334 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2335 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2336 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2338 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2340 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2341 usefully so they will work from a script.
2343 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2345 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2346 neighborhood of the record code.
2348 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2350 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2351 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2352 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2353 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2355 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2357 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2358 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2359 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2361 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2363 Add support for readline function.
2364 * readline.scm: New module.
2365 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2366 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2367 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2369 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2370 repl-reader to use them.
2371 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2373 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2375 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2377 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2378 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2380 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2382 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2383 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2384 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2386 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2388 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2389 #f, abort terminates the process.
2390 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2391 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2393 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2395 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2396 print-state, throw it away.
2398 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2400 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2403 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2405 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2406 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2407 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2408 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2410 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2411 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2413 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2415 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2417 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2419 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2420 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2421 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2422 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2423 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2425 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2426 distribution and installation.
2427 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2429 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2431 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2433 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2435 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2436 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2437 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2439 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2440 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2443 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2445 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2447 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2449 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2451 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2452 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2453 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2454 field a separate argument.
2456 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2458 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2460 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2462 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
2466 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2468 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
2470 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2472 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
2473 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2474 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2475 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2476 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2477 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2479 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2480 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2481 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2482 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2483 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2486 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2488 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!

2492 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
2493 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
2495 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2497 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2499 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2500 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2501 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2502 expansion inside the slib module.
2504 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2506 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
2507 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.

2512 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
2514 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
2515 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2516 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2518 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2519 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2522 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2524 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2525 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2527 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
2529 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
2530 (make-module): Modified initialization.

2534 `scm:eval-transformer'.
2535 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
2536 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current

2542 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2544 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2545 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2546 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2547 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2548 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2550 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2551 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2552 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2554 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2555 the syncase interface.
2557 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2559 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2560 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2561 workings of the current module system).
2563 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2565 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2566 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

2577 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2578 according to the following priorities:
2579 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2580 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2582 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2583 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2584 (new-interpreter): New function.
2586 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2587 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2588 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2590 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2592 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2594 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2596 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

2606 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2607 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

2612 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2613 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
2614 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
2615 symbols matching regexp.
2617 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
2618 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2621 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2622 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
2623 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
2624 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
2625 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2627 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2628 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2630 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2632 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.

2664 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2665 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2666 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2668 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2669 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2672 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2673 order to narrow it correctly.
2674 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

2683 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
2685 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2687 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2688 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2690 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2692 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2693 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2694 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.

2729 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2730 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2731 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2732 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2733 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2735 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2736 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2737 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2738 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2740 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2742 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2743 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2744 sending in bug reports.
2745 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2746 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2747 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2748 display a warning if the two are different.
2749 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2750 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2751 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2753 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2755 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
2757 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2759 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2760 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2762 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2763 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2764 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2765 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2766 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2767 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2770 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2771 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2774 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2775 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2777 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2780 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2783 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2785 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
2788 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2790 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2791 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2793 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2795 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2796 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2797 to support printing of structures.
2798 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2799 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2800 commented out printing code.
2801 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2802 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
2804 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2806 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
2808 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2810 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
2811 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2812 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2813 during call to scm-style-repl.
2815 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2817 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2818 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2819 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
2820 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
2821 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
2823 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2825 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
2826 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
2829 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
2831 * regex.scm: New file.
2832 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
2833 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2835 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2837 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
2838 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
2839 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
2840 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
2842 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2844 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
2847 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2849 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
2850 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
2851 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
2853 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2855 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
2856 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
2859 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2861 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2863 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2865 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2867 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2869 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
2870 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
2873 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2875 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
2876 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
2877 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
2879 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2881 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
2882 the Scheme code like code yet.
2883 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
2885 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2887 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
2888 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
2889 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
2891 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2893 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
2895 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
2898 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2900 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
2902 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2904 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
2906 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
2907 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
2908 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
2910 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2912 Get 'make dist' to work again.
2913 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
2914 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
2916 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
2918 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
2919 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2921 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2923 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
2926 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2928 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
2930 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2932 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
2933 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
2935 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2937 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
2938 instead of in libguile.
2939 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
2940 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
2942 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2944 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
2946 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
2947 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
2949 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2951 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
2952 sockaddr:port): new functions.
2954 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2956 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
2957 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
2958 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
2959 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
2961 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2963 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
2964 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
2966 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2968 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
2970 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2972 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
2973 keywords and symbols.
2975 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2977 * slib.scm: update read usage.
2979 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
2980 Don't define read-sharp.
2982 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
2983 (read-sharp): removed.
2984 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
2985 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
2987 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2989 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
2991 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
2992 primitive procedure.)
2994 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
2995 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
2997 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2999 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3001 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3003 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3005 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3007 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3009 * (exit): alias for quit.
3011 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3013 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3014 return the quit args.
3015 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3016 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3017 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3019 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3021 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3023 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3025 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3026 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3028 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3029 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3031 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3032 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3035 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3037 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3039 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3040 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3041 Change hooks to use these functions.
3043 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3044 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3045 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3047 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3048 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3049 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3050 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3051 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3052 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3053 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3056 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3057 and exit-frame exceptions.
3059 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3060 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3061 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3062 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3063 result; otherwise display "> ".
3064 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3066 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3067 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3068 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3069 repository version runnable.
3071 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3073 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3074 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3075 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3076 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3077 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3078 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3080 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3082 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3083 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3085 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3087 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3088 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3090 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3092 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3094 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3096 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3099 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3101 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3102 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3104 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3106 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3109 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3111 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3112 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3114 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3116 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3118 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3119 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3120 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3121 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3122 dynamic linking of modules.
3123 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3124 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3126 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3128 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3130 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3132 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3135 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3136 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3139 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3141 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3142 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3143 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3145 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3147 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3148 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3151 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3153 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3154 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3155 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3157 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3159 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3160 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3161 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3162 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3164 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3165 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3166 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3167 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3168 (such as the-scm-module).
3170 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3172 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3175 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3177 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3178 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3179 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3181 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3183 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3184 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3185 function, use it accordingly.
3187 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3189 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3190 function of no arguments.
3191 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3192 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3193 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3194 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3195 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3196 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3197 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3198 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3200 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3202 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3203 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3205 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3207 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3208 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3209 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3210 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3211 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3213 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3216 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3217 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3218 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3219 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3221 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3223 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3225 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3226 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3227 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3229 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3232 Added `before-read-hook'.
3234 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3236 (provide): New function.
3238 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3241 (backtrace): New function.
3243 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3244 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3245 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3246 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3247 is found in operator position in a frame.
3249 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3252 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3253 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3254 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3256 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3258 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3260 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3262 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3264 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3266 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3268 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3269 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3271 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3272 so they'll get distributed.
3274 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3275 should see as little clutter as possible.
3276 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3277 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3278 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3280 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3281 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3282 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3283 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3284 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3285 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3286 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3287 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3288 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3289 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3291 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3292 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3294 * test.scm: New file.
3296 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3297 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3298 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3300 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3301 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3303 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3305 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3306 call %load-announce.
3308 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3310 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3311 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3312 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3314 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3316 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3318 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3319 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3320 SCSH (which this isn't).
3322 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3324 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3326 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3328 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3329 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3330 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3332 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3333 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3334 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3335 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3338 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3340 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3342 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3344 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3345 error-catching-loop.
3346 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3347 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3348 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3350 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3351 error-catching-loop.
3353 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3355 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3356 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3357 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3358 should be '(), not #f.
3360 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3361 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3363 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3365 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3366 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3369 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3371 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3372 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3373 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3374 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3376 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3378 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3380 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3382 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3384 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3385 throw-handler-default.
3386 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3388 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3390 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3391 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3393 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3395 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3396 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3397 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3398 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3400 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3402 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3403 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3404 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3405 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3407 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3408 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3409 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3410 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3413 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3415 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3417 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3420 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3423 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3425 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3427 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3428 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3430 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3432 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3434 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3436 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3438 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3439 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3440 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3441 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3442 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3444 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3445 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3446 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3447 they seem redundant.
3448 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3449 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3450 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3451 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3452 directly files starting with "/").
3453 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3454 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3456 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3458 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3460 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3461 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3462 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3463 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3464 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3465 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3466 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3467 robust to just do it in the C code.
3469 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3471 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3472 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3473 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3474 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3475 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3477 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3479 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3480 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3481 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3483 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3485 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3486 system-error, not every kind of error.
3487 (scm-error): new procedure.
3489 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3491 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3493 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3495 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3496 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3497 of args are supplied.
3498 (%%system-errors): removed.
3499 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3500 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3501 %%handle-system-error.
3502 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3503 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3504 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3505 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3507 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3509 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3510 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3511 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3512 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3514 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3516 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3517 the empty list if they are #f.
3518 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3520 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3522 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3524 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3525 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3526 aborting, just the key and subr.
3527 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3528 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3529 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3531 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3533 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3534 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3535 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3536 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3537 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3539 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3541 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3542 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3543 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3544 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3546 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3548 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3549 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3550 initialize %load-path.
3552 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3553 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3555 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3557 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3558 Add the directory named after the version number.
3559 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3560 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3561 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3562 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3563 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3564 (install): Create the above directories.
3565 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3566 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3568 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3570 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3571 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3572 in the Makefile directly.
3573 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3575 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3577 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3578 here, where people expect to find them.
3580 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3582 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3583 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3585 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3587 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3589 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3590 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3592 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3594 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
3595 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3597 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
3598 weak-key-hash-table.
3600 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3602 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3603 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3604 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
3605 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
3606 (%open-file): removed.
3607 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3608 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3610 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3612 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3613 (manifest): Deleted.
3614 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
3615 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3617 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3619 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3620 now that they throw errors directly.
3621 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3622 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
3624 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3626 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
3628 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
3630 * The more things change...
