54
55 * gh.texi, data-rep.texi: Moved `@deftyp {Data type} SCM' line
56 from gh.texi to data-rep.texi. Both files already had similar
57 descriptions for SCM. Given that gh.texi is deprecated, looking
58 up `SCM' in the index should take one to the primary location
59 rather than deprecated section. Hence this change. Added
60 `@deftp' for scm_t_bits data type so that a proper index entry is
61 added for this. Thanks to Richard Y. Kim!
62
63 * data-rep.texi (Subrs): Changed scm_make_gsubr to
64 scm_c_define_gsubr. Thanks to Richard Y. Kim!

530 * guile.texi (Top): A little top-level reshuffling, with the aims
531 that: (1) the `Guile Scheme' (reference) part of the manual
532 becomes the `Guile API Reference', and covers both Scheme and C
533 interfaces; (2) non-API-reference material such as the `Basic
534 Ideas in Scheme' chapter is collected together to form a new part
535 `Programming with Guile'. This new part will contain general
536 documentation on using and programming Guile in both Scheme and C,
537 including - for example - awareness of GC when C programming, how
538 to use the snarf macros, how to debug ...
539 (Top): Move inclusion of scheme-indices.texi so that all indices
540 appear together in the printed manual.
541
542 * Makefile.am (guile_TEXINFOS): Removed appendices.texi, added
