1 2003-01-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
3 * syncase.scm (guile-macro): Strip syntactic information from
4 expression before trying to treat it as a Guile macro call.
5 (Thanks to Kevin Ryde.)
7 2003-01-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
9 * threads.scm (parallel, letpar): Rewritten.

18 * occam-channel.scm (alt): New syntax.
20 * psyntax.ss (self-evaluating?): Removed. Guile now provides this
21 operator as a primitive procedure.

24 2003-01-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
26 * psyntax.ss (self-evaluating?): Allow procedures implanted in
27 source. (Guile uses this internally.)
29 2003-01-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
31 * psyntax.ss (build-data): Don't quote self-evaluating expressions
32 in output. (We normally *would* like also these expressions to be
33 quoted, but until Guile's native macros and syncase cooperates
34 better, it is less destructive not to quote.)
35 (self-evaluating?): Removed null? (In Guile, the empty list is not
37 (sc-chi): Export chi as sc-chi.
38 (external-macro): New syntax type.
40 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
42 * compile-psyntax.scm: Set expansion-eval-closure.
44 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Return *unspecified*.

47 the-syncase-eval-closure during booting so that variables are
48 created in the correct module.
49 (syncase): Set expansion-eval-closure.
50 (define-syntax define-syntax-public eval-when fluid-let-syntax
51 identifier-syntax let-syntax letrec-syntax syntax syntax-case
52 syntax-rules with-syntax include): Removed definitions (these are
53 created from within psyntax.pp).

94 * debugger/breakpoints/Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): VERSION ->
95 GUILE_EFFECTIVE_VERSION.
97 * debugger/Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): VERSION ->
98 GUILE_EFFECTIVE_VERSION.
100 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): VERSION -> GUILE_EFFECTIVE_VERSION.
102 2002-12-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
104 * threads.scm (parallel): New macro.
105 (par-map, par-for-each): New procedures.

113 removing it in my patch from 2002-11-16.
115 2002-11-24 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

120 * slib.scm (%system-define): Removed.
122 (define): Changed to use define-private instead of
125 * boot-9.scm (define-private): Undid my changes from 2002-11-16
126 until Guile supports hygienic macros.
128 2002-11-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
130 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it
131 has been removed from the core.
133 2002-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
135 * syncase.scm (define-syntax, eval-when, fluid-let-syntax,
136 identifier-syntax, let-syntax, letrec-syntax, syntax, syntax-case,
137 syntax-rules, with-syntax, include): Changed definitions to form
138 'real' macro definitions.
140 2002-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
142 * boot-9.scm (define-private, export-syntax, export-syntax):
143 Fixed my previous fix (blush).

147 * boot-9.scm (define-private, export-syntax, export-syntax):
148 Changed definitions to form 'real' macro definitions.
150 2002-11-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
152 * format.scm (format): Use 'monitor' properly. Not the definition
153 needs to be restricted, the actual function needs to be.
155 2002-11-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
157 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): Fix to "simplification"

174 2002-11-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
176 * format.scm (format): Wrap a monitor around format:format since
177 it is not thread-safe.
179 2002-10-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
181 * threads.scm (%thread-handler): Explicitely return '#f'. This
182 value will be returned by join-thread.
184 2002-10-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
186 Merging debugger enhancements previously in separate
187 `guile-debugger' package ...
189 * debugger.scm: Factored out into the following constituent parts
190 - see comment in file for more details.
191 (*not-yet-introduced*): New (avoids repeatedly introducing the
192 debugger when entering it from breakpoints).

225 should be unnecessary now.
227 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
229 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in
230 guile-user-module (should it be there?) instead of

252 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use "1" instead of "%deliver-signals" to
253 limit the signal stack.

334 * boot-9.scm: Comment grammar fixes; nfc.
335 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
337 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
339 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
340 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
341 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
343 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
345 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

353 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
355 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
357 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
358 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
359 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
360 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
362 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
364 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
366 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
367 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
368 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
370 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
372 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

395 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
396 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
397 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
400 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
402 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
405 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
407 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
408 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
409 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
410 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
412 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
414 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
415 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,

436 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
437 the `arglist' procedure property.
438 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to

471 needed to trick export.
473 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
475 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
477 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
479 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
481 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
483 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
485 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
486 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
487 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
489 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
491 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
492 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
494 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
496 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
498 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
500 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
504 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
506 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
507 last-command fluid is not yet set.
509 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
511 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
513 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
514 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
515 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
517 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
519 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
520 handle :use-syntax correctly.
522 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
524 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
527 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
529 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
530 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
531 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
532 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
533 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
535 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

541 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

544 primitives. Thanks Neil!
546 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
548 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
549 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
550 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
551 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
553 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
554 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
555 since there aren't definitions for them.
557 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
558 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
560 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
562 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
563 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
565 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>

568 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
570 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
572 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
573 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
574 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
576 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
578 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
580 * tags.scm: Removed file.
582 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

585 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
587 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
588 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.

592 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
594 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
595 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
597 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
599 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
600 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
602 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,

642 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
644 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
645 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
646 rdelim) module. See below.
648 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
650 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
651 include-deprecated-features is true.

655 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
658 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
659 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
660 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
662 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
663 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
664 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
667 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
669 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
670 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
671 variable, not just a visible one.
672 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
673 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
674 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
675 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
676 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
677 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
679 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
681 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
682 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
684 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
686 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
687 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
689 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>

693 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
695 Added exception notice to all files.
697 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
698 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
699 importing bindings once in a while.
701 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
703 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
704 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.

709 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
710 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
712 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
713 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.

721 to access unbound variables.
723 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
724 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
725 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
726 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
727 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
729 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
731 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
732 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
733 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
734 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
735 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
736 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
737 argument for process-define-module.
738 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
739 arguments for process-use-modules.

750 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
751 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.

783 * match.scm: Likewise.
784 * expect.scm: Likewise.
785 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
787 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
789 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
791 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
793 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
794 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
795 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
796 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
797 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
798 element list when adding "." to it.
799 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
800 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
802 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
804 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
806 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
807 now accepts arg; update callers.
808 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
809 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
811 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
812 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
813 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
814 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
815 `search-documentation-files'.
816 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
817 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
818 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
820 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
821 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
823 (find-documentation): Delete.

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

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

857 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
858 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
859 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
860 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
861 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.

863 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
864 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
865 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
866 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
867 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
868 `set-current-module' call.
869 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
870 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

910 (process-use-modules): Arg is now `module-interface-specs',
911 which is passed through to `resolve-interface' as before; nfc.
912 (named-module-use!, top-repl): Abstraction maintenance: Use

1177 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the
1179 (define-module): Simply call `process-define-module' without any
1180 fuss (but only on top-level).
1181 (named-module-use!): New function.
1182 (top-repl): Do not use `define-module'. Use equivalent low-level
1185 2001-02-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1187 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Use `primitive-eval' instead of
1189 (define-public): Do not use `eval'.
1191 2001-02-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
1193 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Display the warning to the
1194 `current-error-port'.
1196 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1198 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
1201 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to
1202 `and-let-star.scm'. Updated module name as well.
1203 * and-let-star-compat.scm: New file, installed as `and-let*.scm'.
1204 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced "and-let*.scm" with
1206 (install-data-local): Install "and-let-star-compat.scm" as
1207 "and-let*.scm", ignoring errors.
1208 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute `and-let-star-compat.scm'.
1210 2001-01-26 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1212 This patch fixes a problem reported by Martin Grabmueller about
1213 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
1215 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to
1216 conveniently define a group of option interface functions.
1218 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
1219 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
1221 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1223 * boot-9.scm: don't import (ice-9 rdelim) here. it's done
1225 * rdelim.scm: export the C primitives too.
1226 * documentation.scm: use (ice-9 rdelim).
1228 2001-01-21 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1230 * rdelim.scm: new file implementing module (ice-9 rdelim).
1231 * ice-9.scm (scm-line-incrementors read-line! read-delimited!
1232 read-delimited read-line): moved to rdelim.scm.
1233 scm-line-incrementors is not exported.
1234 * boot-9.scm: import (ice-9 rdelim) for backwards compatibility,
1236 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
1237 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
1239 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1241 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1242 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1243 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1244 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1245 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1246 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1247 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1249 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1251 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1252 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1254 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1256 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1259 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1261 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1264 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1266 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1268 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1270 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1271 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1272 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1273 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1274 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
1275 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
1276 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1277 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
1278 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
1279 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1280 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1281 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1282 make-shared-substring.
1284 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1286 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1287 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1288 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1289 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1292 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1294 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1295 and open-output-pipe.
1297 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1299 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1300 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1301 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1302 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1303 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1304 Pirotte for the bug report).
1305 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1306 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1308 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1310 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
1311 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
1313 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1315 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
1317 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1319 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): regexp-exec does not
1320 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
1323 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1325 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
1328 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1330 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1331 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1332 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1334 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1335 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1336 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1337 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1338 actual documentation entries themselves.
1340 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1342 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1344 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1346 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
1348 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1350 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
1351 Convert first argument to a string.
1353 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
1354 getter-and-setter-syntax,
1355 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
1356 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
1358 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
1360 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
1362 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1364 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1366 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1368 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1370 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1372 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1373 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1374 even worked... /mdj.
1375 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1377 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1380 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1382 * psyntax.ss (set!): Added generalized set! support to core syntax
1385 2000-08-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1387 * optargs.scm (#\&): Changed #:allow-other-keys-value to
1388 #:allow-other-keys. Thanks to Bill Schottstaedt!
1390 2000-08-17 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1392 * optargs.scm (#\&): Emit warning about `#&' being deprecated.
1394 2000-08-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1396 * optargs.scm: Replaced `#&' reader syntax with keywords.
1398 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1400 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
1403 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1405 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1406 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1407 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1408 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1409 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1411 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1413 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1415 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1416 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1418 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1421 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1422 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1423 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1424 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1426 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1428 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
1429 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
1431 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
1433 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1434 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1436 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1438 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1439 definition of module-type.
1441 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1443 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1445 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1447 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1448 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1450 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1452 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1454 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1456 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1457 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1458 Mikael for the suggestion.
1460 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1462 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1463 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1465 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1467 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1470 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1472 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1474 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1476 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1477 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1480 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1481 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1484 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1486 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1487 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1489 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1490 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1491 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1493 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1495 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1497 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1499 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1500 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1502 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1504 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1505 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1507 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1509 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1510 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1512 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1514 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1516 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1518 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1520 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1522 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1524 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1525 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1527 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1529 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1532 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1533 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1534 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1535 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1538 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1540 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1542 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1544 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1545 (write-all): Removed.
1546 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1547 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1549 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1551 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1552 `proc-documentation'
1554 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1555 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1556 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1557 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1558 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1559 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1560 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1563 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1565 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1567 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1569 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1570 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1571 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1574 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1576 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1577 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1578 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1579 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1580 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1581 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1582 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1584 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1586 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1587 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1589 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1591 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1592 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1594 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1596 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1597 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1598 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1599 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1600 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1601 delete-if! when iterating.
1603 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1605 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1607 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1609 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1611 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1613 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1614 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1615 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1616 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1618 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1620 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1621 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1623 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1625 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1626 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1627 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1628 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1630 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1632 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1633 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1635 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1637 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1638 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1640 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1642 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1645 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1647 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1648 source of the numerous very short changes.
1650 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1652 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1655 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1658 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1660 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1663 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1665 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1666 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1668 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1670 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1673 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1675 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1676 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1677 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1679 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1681 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1682 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1683 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1684 Narazaki for this change.
1686 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1688 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1689 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1692 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1693 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1695 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1697 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1698 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1700 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1702 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1703 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1704 use define-public to export from the module.
1706 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1708 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1709 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1710 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1712 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1714 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1716 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1718 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1719 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1721 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1723 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1725 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1727 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1729 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1731 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1732 long_long uniform vectors.
1734 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1736 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1737 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1739 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1741 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1742 script to create generated files like this one.
1744 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1746 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1747 available before using getpw and getuid.
1748 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1749 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1751 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1752 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1753 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1755 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1756 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1757 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1759 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1760 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1762 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1764 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1767 than 'exit-debugger.
1769 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.

1779 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1780 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1781 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected

1785 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1787 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1788 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1791 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1793 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1794 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1796 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1798 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1800 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1802 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1803 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1805 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1806 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1807 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1809 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1812 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1814 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1815 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1817 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1819 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1821 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1822 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1823 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1824 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1826 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1829 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1830 both forward and backward views of the stack
1831 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1832 Use selector `frame-number';
1833 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1834 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1836 Use readline conditionally.
1838 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1840 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1841 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1842 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1844 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1845 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1848 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1850 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1852 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1854 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1856 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1858 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1860 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1861 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1862 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1863 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1864 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1865 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1866 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1867 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1868 libguile-config-stamp.
1869 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1870 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1871 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1872 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1873 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1875 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1877 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1878 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1879 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1881 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1882 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1883 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1884 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1887 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1889 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1891 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1893 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1895 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1896 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1898 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1900 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1901 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1902 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1903 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1904 objects starting with '#/'.
1906 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1908 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1909 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1910 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1911 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1912 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1913 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1915 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1916 module-modified): New procedures.
1917 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1918 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1920 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1922 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1925 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1927 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1928 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1929 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1931 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1934 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1936 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1937 at multiple calls to read.
1938 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1939 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1940 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1941 continued-lines prompt.
1943 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1944 reading expressions.
1946 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1948 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1949 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1951 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1953 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1954 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1957 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1959 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1960 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1962 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1963 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1964 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1965 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1966 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1969 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1971 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1972 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1974 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1976 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1977 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1978 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1979 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1981 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1983 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1985 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1986 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1987 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1990 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1992 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1993 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1994 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1995 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1996 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1997 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1998 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1999 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2000 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2001 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2002 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2004 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2006 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2007 peeked from the stream.
2008 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2009 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2010 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2012 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2014 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2015 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2017 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2019 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2020 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2021 exiting repl with single control-D.
2023 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2025 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2026 error catching loop after quit received.
2027 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2029 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2030 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2031 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2033 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2034 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2036 * popen.scm: new file.
2038 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2040 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2041 (reverse-iota): removed.
2043 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2045 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2046 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2048 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2050 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2051 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2052 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2053 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2054 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2056 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2058 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2060 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2061 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2063 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2064 Guile's module system.
2066 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2068 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2069 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2070 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2071 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2072 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2073 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2075 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2076 '() when the condition is false.
2078 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2080 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2082 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2084 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2086 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2088 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2089 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2090 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2092 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2094 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2095 argument order for hash-fold.
2097 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2099 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2101 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2102 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2104 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2105 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2106 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2107 has been added to the load path).
2109 Use try-load-module.
2111 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2113 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2114 module between system and user state.
2116 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2118 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2120 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2123 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2125 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2126 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2127 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2129 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2131 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2132 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2133 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2134 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2135 stack frame encountered.
2137 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2138 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2139 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2140 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2143 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2144 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2145 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2146 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2149 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2150 define-module switches:
2152 (define-module (foo)
2155 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2158 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2159 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2160 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2161 module it is a system frame.
2163 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2164 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2165 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2166 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2167 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2169 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2170 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2171 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2172 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2173 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2174 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2176 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2177 status of a module.;
2178 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2179 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2181 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2182 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2183 closure to the module.
2185 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2187 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2189 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2191 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2193 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2195 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2197 Fix from Russ McManus:
2198 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2199 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2200 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2201 either an optional or required value.
2203 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2205 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2207 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2208 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2210 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2211 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2212 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2213 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2215 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2217 * optargs.scm: New file.
2218 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2219 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2221 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2223 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.

2230 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2233 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2235 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2237 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2239 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2240 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2241 applied to the module itself.
2243 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2245 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2247 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2248 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2250 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2252 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2254 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2256 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2258 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2260 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2261 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2263 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2265 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2266 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2267 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2268 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2269 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2270 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2271 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2273 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2275 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2276 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2278 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2280 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2281 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2284 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2286 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2288 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2290 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2292 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2294 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2295 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2296 adapt to the new hooks.
2298 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2300 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2301 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2302 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2304 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2305 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2307 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2308 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2309 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2310 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2311 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2312 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2313 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2314 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2315 first to register linked modules.
2317 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2318 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2319 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2321 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2322 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2323 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2324 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2326 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2328 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2331 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2332 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2333 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2335 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2337 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2338 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2339 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2341 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2343 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2344 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2345 result of the last form.
2347 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2349 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2352 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2354 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2355 readline-set!: New options interface.
2357 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2359 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2361 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2362 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2364 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2366 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2367 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2369 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2371 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2372 interactive session.
2373 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2375 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2376 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2378 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2380 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2382 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2384 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2385 read line was empty.
2387 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2389 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2390 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2392 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2394 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2396 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2397 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2398 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2400 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2401 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2403 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2404 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2405 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2407 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2408 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2409 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2410 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2411 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2412 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2414 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2416 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2417 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2419 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2421 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2422 and short vectors #h(...).
2424 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2426 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2427 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2428 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2430 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2432 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2433 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2434 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2436 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2438 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2439 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2441 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2442 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2443 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2444 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2446 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2448 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2451 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2452 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2453 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2454 context with traps enabled.
2456 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2458 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2460 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2462 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2464 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2465 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2466 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2467 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2468 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2470 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2472 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2473 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2475 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2477 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2479 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2481 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2483 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2485 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2487 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2489 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2490 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2492 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2494 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2495 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2496 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2497 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2500 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2501 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2502 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2504 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2506 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2507 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2508 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2509 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2510 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2511 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2512 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2514 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2516 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2518 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2520 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2521 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2522 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2523 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2524 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2525 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2527 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2529 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2530 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2531 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2534 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2536 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2538 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2540 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2542 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2544 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2547 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2549 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2551 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2553 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2554 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2556 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2558 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2559 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2560 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2561 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2563 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2564 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2566 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2568 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2570 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2572 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2573 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2576 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2577 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2579 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2580 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2581 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2583 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2585 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2587 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2589 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2590 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2592 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2594 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2596 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2598 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2599 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2601 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2603 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2606 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2608 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2609 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2611 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2613 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2615 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2617 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2620 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2622 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2623 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2624 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2625 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2626 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2629 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2631 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2632 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2633 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2635 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2637 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2639 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2640 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2642 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2644 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2645 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2646 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2647 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2648 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2649 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2650 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2653 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2655 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2658 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2660 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2661 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2662 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2663 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2664 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2665 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2667 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2669 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2670 usefully so they will work from a script.
2672 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2674 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2675 neighborhood of the record code.
2677 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2679 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2680 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2681 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2682 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2684 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2686 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2687 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2688 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2690 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2692 Add support for readline function.
2693 * readline.scm: New module.
2694 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2695 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2696 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2698 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2699 repl-reader to use them.
2700 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2702 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2704 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2706 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2707 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2709 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2711 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2712 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2713 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2715 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2717 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2718 #f, abort terminates the process.
2719 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2720 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2722 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2724 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2725 print-state, throw it away.
2727 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2729 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2732 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2734 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2735 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2736 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2737 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2739 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2740 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2742 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2744 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2746 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2748 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2749 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2750 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2751 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2752 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2754 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2755 distribution and installation.
2756 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2758 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2760 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2762 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2764 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2765 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2766 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2768 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2769 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global

2774 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.

2781 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2782 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2783 field a separate argument.
2785 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2787 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>

2802 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2803 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2804 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2805 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2806 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2808 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2809 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2810 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2811 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2812 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically

2826 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2828 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2829 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2830 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2831 expansion inside the slib module.
2833 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2835 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.

2844 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2845 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2847 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2848 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2851 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2853 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.

2871 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2873 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2874 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2875 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2876 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2877 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2879 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2880 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2881 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2883 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2884 the syncase interface.
2886 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2888 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2889 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2890 workings of the current module system).
2892 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2894 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2895 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

2904 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2906 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2907 according to the following priorities:
2908 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2909 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2911 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2912 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2913 (new-interpreter): New function.
2915 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2916 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2917 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2919 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2921 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

2957 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2959 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2961 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.

2964 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2965 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2967 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2969 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2971 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling

2991 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2993 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2994 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2995 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2997 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2998 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3001 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3002 order to narrow it correctly.
3003 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

3017 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3019 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3021 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3022 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3023 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3025 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3027 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces

3058 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3059 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3060 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3061 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3062 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3064 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3065 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3066 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3067 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3069 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3071 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3072 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3073 sending in bug reports.
3074 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3075 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3076 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3077 display a warning if the two are different.
3078 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3079 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3080 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

3088 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3089 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3091 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3092 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3093 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3094 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3095 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3096 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3099 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3100 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3103 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3104 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3106 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3109 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3112 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

3124 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3125 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3126 to support printing of structures.
3127 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3128 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3129 commented out printing code.
3130 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3131 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".

3142 during call to scm-style-repl.
3144 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3146 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3147 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3148 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3149 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3150 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3152 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3154 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3155 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3158 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3160 * regex.scm: New file.
3161 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.

3167 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3168 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3169 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3171 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3173 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3176 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3178 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3179 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3180 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3182 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3184 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3185 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3188 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3190 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.

3194 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3196 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3198 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3199 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3202 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3204 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3205 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3206 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3208 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3210 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3211 the Scheme code like code yet.
3212 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3214 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3216 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3217 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3218 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3220 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3222 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3224 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules

3229 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3231 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3233 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3235 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3236 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3237 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3239 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3241 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3242 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3243 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.

3266 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3267 instead of in libguile.

3269 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3271 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3273 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3275 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3276 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3278 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3280 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3281 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3283 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3285 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3286 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3287 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3288 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3290 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3292 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3293 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3295 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3297 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3299 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3301 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3302 keywords and symbols.
3304 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3306 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3308 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3309 Don't define read-sharp.
3311 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3312 (read-sharp): removed.
3313 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3314 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3316 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3318 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3320 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3321 primitive procedure.)
3323 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3324 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3326 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3328 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3330 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3332 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3334 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3336 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3338 * (exit): alias for quit.
3340 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3342 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3343 return the quit args.
3344 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3345 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3346 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3348 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3350 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3352 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3354 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3355 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3357 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3358 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3360 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3361 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3364 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3366 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3368 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3369 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3370 Change hooks to use these functions.
3372 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3373 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3374 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3376 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3377 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3378 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3379 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3380 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3381 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3382 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3385 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3386 and exit-frame exceptions.
3388 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3389 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3390 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3391 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3392 result; otherwise display "> ".
3393 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3395 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3396 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3397 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3398 repository version runnable.
3400 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3402 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3403 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3404 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3405 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3406 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3407 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3409 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3411 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3412 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3414 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3416 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3417 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3419 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3421 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3423 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3425 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3428 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3430 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3431 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3433 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3435 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3438 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3440 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3441 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3443 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3445 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3447 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3448 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3449 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3450 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3451 dynamic linking of modules.
3452 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3453 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3455 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3457 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3459 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3461 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3464 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3465 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3468 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3470 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3471 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3472 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3474 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3476 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3477 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3480 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3482 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3483 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3484 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3486 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3488 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3489 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3490 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3491 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3493 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3494 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3495 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3496 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3497 (such as the-scm-module).
3499 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3501 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3504 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3506 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3507 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3508 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3510 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3512 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3513 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3514 function, use it accordingly.
3516 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3518 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3519 function of no arguments.
3520 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3521 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3522 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3523 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3524 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3525 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3526 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3527 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3529 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3531 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3532 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3534 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3536 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3537 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3538 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3539 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3540 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3542 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3545 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3546 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3547 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3548 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3550 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3552 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3554 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3555 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3556 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3558 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3561 Added `before-read-hook'.
3563 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3565 (provide): New function.
3567 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3570 (backtrace): New function.
3572 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3573 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3574 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3575 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3576 is found in operator position in a frame.
3578 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3581 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3582 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3583 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3585 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3587 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3589 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3591 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3593 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3595 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3597 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3598 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3600 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3601 so they'll get distributed.
3603 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3604 should see as little clutter as possible.
3605 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3606 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3607 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3609 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3610 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3611 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3612 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3613 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3614 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3615 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3616 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3617 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3618 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3620 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3621 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3623 * test.scm: New file.
3625 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3626 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3627 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3629 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3630 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3632 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3634 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3635 call %load-announce.
3637 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3639 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3640 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3641 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3643 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3645 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3647 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3648 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3649 SCSH (which this isn't).
3651 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3653 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3655 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3657 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3658 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3659 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3661 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3662 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3663 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3664 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3667 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3669 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3671 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3673 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3674 error-catching-loop.
3675 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3676 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3677 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3679 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3680 error-catching-loop.
3682 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3684 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3685 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3686 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3687 should be '(), not #f.
3689 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3690 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3692 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3694 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3695 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3698 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3700 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3701 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3702 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3703 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3705 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3707 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3709 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3711 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3713 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3714 throw-handler-default.
3715 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3717 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3719 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3720 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3722 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3724 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3725 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3726 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3727 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3729 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3731 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3732 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3733 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3734 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3736 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3737 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3738 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3739 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3742 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3744 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3746 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3749 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3752 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3754 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3756 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3757 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3759 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3761 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3763 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3765 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3767 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3768 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3769 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3770 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3771 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3773 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3774 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3775 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3776 they seem redundant.
3777 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3778 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3779 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3780 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3781 directly files starting with "/").
3782 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3783 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3785 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3787 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3789 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3790 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3791 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3792 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3793 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3794 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3795 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3796 robust to just do it in the C code.
3798 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3800 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously

3810 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3812 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3814 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only

3862 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3863 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3864 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3865 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3866 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.

3901 in the Makefile directly.
3902 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3904 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3906 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files

3941 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3942 (manifest): Deleted.
3943 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
