55
56 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
57 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
58 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
59 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
60 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
61 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
62 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).

642000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
65

742000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
75
76 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
77 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
78 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
79 instead of remove-if when iterating.

92
93 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
94 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
95 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
96 descriptors still in use in parent ports.

982000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
99
100 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from

1032000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
104
105 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
106 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
107 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
108 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)

1102000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
111
112 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
113 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.

136 info pages.

146 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.

GH
1532000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
154
155 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
156 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
157 the time first either, since expect-select does it.

159Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
160
161 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
162 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
163 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
164 Narazaki for this change.

167
168 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
169 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
170 %S.
171
172 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
173 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.

1752000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
176
177 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
178 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.

187
188 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
189 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
190 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!

2241999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
225
226 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
227 available before using getpw and getuid.
228 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
229 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
230 check for stat.
231 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
232 check for .guile, instead of stat.
233 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
234 available.
235 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
236 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
237 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
238
239 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
240 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.

305
306 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as

309 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for

312 Use selector `frame-number';
313 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.

322 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
323
324 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
325 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to

339
340 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
341 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
342 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
343 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
344 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
345 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
346 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
347 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
348 libguile-config-stamp.
349 * version.scm.in: Delete.
350 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
351 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
352 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
353 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.

358 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
359 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
360
0fdcbcaa 361 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
d61d2039
MD
362 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
363 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
364 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
365 readline.
366
367 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.

384 objects starting with '#/'.

388 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
389 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
390 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
391 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
392 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
393 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and

438
439 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
440 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
441
442 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
443 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
444 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
445 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
446 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
447 instead of a port.

454 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
455
456 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
457 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
027ffa31 458 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
8ed3c2fb

459 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.

461 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
462
463 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
464
465 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
466 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
467 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
468 an alist.
469
470 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
471
ad226f25 472 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
aad827f4
JB
473 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
474 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
475 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
476 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
ad226f25 477 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
027ffa31 478 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
aad827f4
JB
479 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
480 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
027ffa31
JB
481 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
482 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.

484 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>

ad226f25 486 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
aad827f4
JB
487 peeked from the stream.
488 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
489 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
490 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
491
492 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>

501 exiting repl with single control-D.
502
503 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>

544 Guile's module system.
545
546 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
547 changes:
548 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
549 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
550 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
551 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
552 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
553 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
554 modern CL behavior.
555 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
556 '() when the condition is false.

584 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
585 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is

587 has been added to the load path).

6091999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
610
611 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
612 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
613 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
614 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
615 stack frame encountered.
616
617 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
618 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
619 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
620 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
621 list).]
622
623 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
624 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
625 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
626 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
627 please tell me!]
628
629 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
630 define-module switches:
631
632 (define-module (foo)
633 :no-backtrace)
634
635 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
636 modules.
637
638 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
639 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
640 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
641 module it is a system frame.
642
643 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
644 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
645 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
027ffa31 646 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
88124126
MD
647 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
648
649 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
650 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
651 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
652 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
653 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
654 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
655
656 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
657 status of a module.;
658 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
659 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.

872 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.

874 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
875 problem. Duh.
876 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.

880 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
881 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
882 into...
883 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
884 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
885 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
886
887 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
027ffa31
JB
888 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
889 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
890 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.

944 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
945 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
946 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
947 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
948 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.

974 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use

976 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
977 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
978 Archibald.)

986 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
027ffa31 987 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
a0cc0a01
MD
988 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
989 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
990 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
991 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.

1000 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
1001 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
1002 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
1003 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
1004 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
1005 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.

1038 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
1039 similar in use to `use-modules'.
1040 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
1041 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
1042 transformer.

1054 completion.
1055
1056 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
1057 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
1058
1059 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
1060 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
027ffa31 1061 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)

027ffa31 1103 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
13dc0cae
MD
1104 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
1105 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
1106 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other

f4be1689 1124 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
027ffa31 1125 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
848f2a01
TP
1126 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
1127 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
027ffa31 1128 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
848f2a01
TP
1129 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
1130 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
1131 to go here.

1142 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not

1228 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
1229 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.

1231 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,

1626 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
1627 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
1628 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
1629 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
1630 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.

1856 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.

e6875011 1858 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.

1859 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
1860 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
1861 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
1862 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
1863 traced.

1883 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
1884 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
1885 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when

1974 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
1975 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
1976 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list

1998 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a

7a818853 2016 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
7ad737b6
MD
2017 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
2018 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
2019 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
2020 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
2021
2022 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
027ffa31 2023 `*features*'.
7ad737b6
MD
2024
2025 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
2026 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
2027 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
2028 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
2029
2030 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
2031
2032 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
2033
7a818853 2034 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
7ad737b6
MD
2035 If the user wants to see this, he can do
2036 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
2037
7a818853 2038 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
7ad737b6
MD
2039 error.
2040
2041 Added `before-read-hook'.
2042
2043 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
2044
2045 (provide): New function.
2046
2047 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
2048 in backtraces.
2049
2050 (backtrace): New function.
2051
7a818853 2052 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
7ad737b6
MD
2053 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
2054 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
2055 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
2056 is found in operator position in a frame.
2057
2058 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
2059 by default.
2060
2061 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
2062 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
2063 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
2064
2065 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
2066
2067 (library-vicinity): Updated.
2068
2069 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
2070

JB
2080 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
2081 so they'll get distributed.
2082
2083 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
2084 should see as little clutter as possible.
2085 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.

JB
2098 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
2099 that are not.
2100 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
2101 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
2102
2103 * test.scm: New file.
2104
2105 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
2106 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
2107 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
2108
2109 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
2110 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
2111
99f97bfe 2112 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this

2138 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
2139 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into

1bb961a3 2141 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
027ffa31

2142 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
2143 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
1bb961a3 2144 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into

027ffa31
JB
2270 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
2271 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
2272 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
2273 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
2274 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
2275 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
2276 robust to just do it in the C code.

2342 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
2343 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
2344 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
2345 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
2346 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
