1 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
3 * debugger/ui-client.scm (ui-disable-async-thread,
4 ui-continue-async-thread, start-async-ui-thread): New.
5 (ui-command-loop): Call ui-disable-async-thread and
6 ui-continue-async-thread.
7 (handle-instruction): Read terminating newline char so it doesn't
8 cause following select to pop immediately.
10 2003-09-25 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
12 * debugger/ui-client.scm, debugger/ui-server.scm: New (work in
13 progress on new debugging front end).
15 2003-09-24 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
17 * debugger.scm (default-default-lazy-handler, debug-on-error):
20 * debugger/behaviour.scm (debug-if-flag-set): Display debug entry

39 2003-09-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
41 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
42 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
43 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
44 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
45 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
47 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
49 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
50 the obarray, not an empty vector.

55 'format' since the latter will lock the mutex again that we have
57 (format:format-work): Flag multiple '#' as an error.
59 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
61 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
62 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
64 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
66 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
67 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
68 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
70 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
71 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
73 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>

101 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.
103 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-get-handle): Pass only the expected four
104 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
106 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
107 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!

145 * session.scm (apropos): Don't look in duplicates interface.

149 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers): Make sure the merge-generics
150 and merge-accessors handlers are available also before (oop goops)

152 handlers without worrying about availability.

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

608 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in

611 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
613 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
615 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
617 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
618 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
619 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
621 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
623 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

634 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
636 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
637 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be

645 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
646 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
647 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
648 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
651 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
653 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
656 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
658 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
659 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
660 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
661 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
663 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
665 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
666 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,

696 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
697 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
700 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
702 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).

734 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
736 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
737 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
738 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
740 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
742 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
743 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
745 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

749 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
751 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
755 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
757 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
758 last-command fluid is not yet set.
760 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
762 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
764 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
765 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
766 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
768 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
770 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
771 handle :use-syntax correctly.
773 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

778 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
780 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
781 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
782 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
783 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
784 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
786 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

790 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
792 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
794 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
795 primitives. Thanks Neil!
797 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
799 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
800 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
801 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
802 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
804 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
805 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
806 since there aren't definitions for them.
808 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
809 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
811 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
813 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
814 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
816 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
818 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
819 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
821 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
823 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
824 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
825 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
827 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
829 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
831 * tags.scm: Removed file.
833 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
835 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
836 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
838 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
839 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
840 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
843 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
845 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
846 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
848 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
850 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
851 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
853 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
854 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by

865 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
867 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
869 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
871 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
872 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
874 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
877 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
878 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.

881 (slib:error): Delete.
882 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
884 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
889 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
893 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
895 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
896 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
897 rdelim) module. See below.
899 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
901 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
902 include-deprecated-features is true.
904 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
906 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
909 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
910 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
911 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
913 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
914 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
915 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
918 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
920 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
921 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
922 variable, not just a visible one.
923 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
924 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
925 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
926 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
927 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
928 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
930 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
932 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
933 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
935 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
937 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
938 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
940 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
942 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
944 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
946 Added exception notice to all files.
948 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
949 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
950 importing bindings once in a while.
952 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
954 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
955 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
956 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
957 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
958 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
959 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
960 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
961 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
963 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
964 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
966 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
968 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
969 fix command so that it works.
971 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
972 to access unbound variables.
974 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
975 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
976 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
977 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
978 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
980 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
982 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
983 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
984 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
985 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
986 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
987 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
988 argument for process-define-module.
989 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
990 arguments for process-use-modules.
991 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
993 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
995 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
996 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
997 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
1000 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
1001 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
1002 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
1004 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
1006 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1008 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules

1023 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1025 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
1026 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
1028 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
1031 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1033 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
1034 * match.scm: Likewise.
1035 * expect.scm: Likewise.
1036 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
1038 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
1040 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
1042 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
1044 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
1045 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
1046 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
1047 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
1048 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
1049 element list when adding "." to it.
1050 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
1051 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
1053 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1055 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
1057 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
1058 now accepts arg; update callers.
1059 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
1060 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
1062 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
1063 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
1064 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
1065 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
1066 `search-documentation-files'.
1067 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
1068 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
1069 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
1071 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
1072 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
1074 (find-documentation): Delete.
1075 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
1076 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.

1080 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
1081 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.

1084 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1086 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if
1087 used module's public interface is not available.
1088 No longer call `beautify-user-module!'.
1089 Signal error now also if selected binding not found.
1091 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1093 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
1095 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
1097 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
1099 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
1100 the magical undefined value.
1101 (let-o-k-template): Use `#f' instead of the undefined value as
1102 the default default for bindings.
1104 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to
1105 make-undefined-variable, use `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1106 (root-module-closure): Removed.
1107 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1108 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
1109 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
1110 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1111 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
1112 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
1113 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
1114 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1115 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1116 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1117 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1118 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1119 `set-current-module' call.
1120 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1121 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

1124 insert `debug-options' into the-root-module.

1135 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Reduce feature list to built-in
1138 2001-05-14 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1140 * boot-9.scm (-1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags):
1143 2001-05-11 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1145 * boot-9.scm: Added `cond-expand' (SRFI-0) for portable feature

1154 or a interface spec.
1155 (symbol-prefix-proc): New proc.
1156 (%autoloader-developer-mode): Delete.
1157 (process-define-module): Use "define-module" in error messages
1158 instead of "defmodule". Factor error into internal proc.
1159 Rewrite `use-module' and `use-syntax' handlers.
1160 Replace some single-arm `if-not' constructs w/ `or'.
1161 (process-use-modules): Arg is now `module-interface-specs',
1162 which is passed through to `resolve-interface' as before; nfc.
1163 (named-module-use!, top-repl): Abstraction maintenance: Use

1355 make-buffered-input-port.
1357 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

1421 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit

1492 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1493 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1494 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1495 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1496 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1497 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1498 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1500 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1512 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1515 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1517 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1519 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1521 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1522 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1523 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1524 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,

1530 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1531 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,

1537 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1538 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1539 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1540 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1543 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1545 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1546 and open-output-pipe.
1548 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1550 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1551 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1552 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1553 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1554 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1555 Pirotte for the bug report).
1556 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1557 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1559 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1561 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1581 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1582 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1583 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1585 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1586 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1587 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1588 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1589 actual documentation entries themselves.
1591 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1617 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1621 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1623 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1624 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1625 even worked... /mdj.
1626 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1628 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS

1656 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1657 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1658 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1659 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1660 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)

1727 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1728 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1731 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1732 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1735 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1737 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1738 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1740 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1741 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1742 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1744 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1746 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1748 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1750 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1751 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1753 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1755 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1756 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1758 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1760 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1761 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1763 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1765 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1767 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1769 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1771 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1773 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1775 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1776 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1778 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1780 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1783 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1784 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1785 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1786 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1789 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1791 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1793 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1795 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1796 (write-all): Removed.
1797 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1798 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1800 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1802 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1803 `proc-documentation'
1805 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1806 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1807 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1808 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1809 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1810 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1811 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1814 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1816 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1818 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1820 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1821 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1822 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1825 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1827 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1828 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1829 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1830 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1831 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1832 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1833 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1835 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1837 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1838 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1840 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1842 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1843 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1845 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1847 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1848 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1849 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1850 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1851 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1852 delete-if! when iterating.
1854 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1856 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1858 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1860 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1862 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1864 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1865 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1866 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1867 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1869 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1871 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1872 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1874 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1876 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1877 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1878 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1879 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1881 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1883 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1884 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1886 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1888 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1889 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1891 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1893 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1896 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1898 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1899 source of the numerous very short changes.
1901 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1903 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1906 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1909 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1911 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1914 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1916 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1917 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1919 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1921 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1924 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1926 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1927 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1928 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1930 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1932 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1933 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1934 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1935 Narazaki for this change.
1937 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1939 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1940 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1943 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1944 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1946 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1948 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1949 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1951 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1953 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1954 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1955 use define-public to export from the module.
1957 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1959 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1960 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1961 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1963 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1965 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1967 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1969 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1970 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1972 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1974 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1976 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1978 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1980 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1982 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1983 long_long uniform vectors.
1985 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1987 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1988 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1990 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1992 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1993 script to create generated files like this one.
1995 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1997 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1998 available before using getpw and getuid.
1999 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2000 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2002 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2003 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2004 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2006 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2007 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2008 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2010 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2011 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2013 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2015 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2017 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2018 than 'exit-debugger.
2020 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2021 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2023 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
2025 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2027 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
2028 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
2029 ("position"): New command.
2030 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2031 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
2032 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
2033 to return a valid state.)
2034 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
2036 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2038 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
2039 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
2042 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2044 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2045 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2047 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2049 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2051 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2053 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2054 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2056 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2057 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2058 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2060 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2063 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2065 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2066 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2068 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2070 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2072 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2073 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2074 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2075 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2077 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2080 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2081 both forward and backward views of the stack
2082 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2083 Use selector `frame-number';
2084 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2085 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2087 Use readline conditionally.
2089 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2091 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2092 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2093 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2095 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2096 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2099 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2101 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2103 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2105 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2107 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2109 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2111 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2112 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2113 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2114 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2115 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2116 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2117 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2118 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2119 libguile-config-stamp.
2120 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2121 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2122 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2123 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2124 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2126 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2128 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2129 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2130 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2132 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2133 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2134 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2135 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2138 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2140 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2142 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2144 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2146 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2147 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2149 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2151 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2152 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2153 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2154 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2155 objects starting with '#/'.
2157 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2159 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2160 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2161 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2162 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2163 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2164 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2166 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2167 module-modified): New procedures.
2168 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2169 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2171 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2173 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2176 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2178 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2179 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2180 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2182 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2185 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2187 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2188 at multiple calls to read.
2189 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2190 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2191 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2192 continued-lines prompt.
2194 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2195 reading expressions.
2197 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2199 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2200 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2202 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2204 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2205 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2208 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2210 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2211 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2213 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2214 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2215 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2216 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2217 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2220 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2222 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2223 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2225 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2227 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2228 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2229 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2230 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2232 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2234 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2236 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2237 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2238 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2241 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2243 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2244 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2245 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2246 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2247 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2248 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2249 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2250 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2251 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2252 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2253 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2255 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2257 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2258 peeked from the stream.
2259 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2260 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2261 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2263 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2265 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2266 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2268 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2270 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2271 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2272 exiting repl with single control-D.
2274 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2276 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2277 error catching loop after quit received.
2278 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2280 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2281 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2282 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2284 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2285 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2287 * popen.scm: new file.
2289 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2291 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2292 (reverse-iota): removed.
2294 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2296 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2297 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2299 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2301 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2302 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2303 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2304 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2305 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2307 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2309 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2311 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2312 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2314 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2315 Guile's module system.
2317 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2319 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2320 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2321 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2322 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2323 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2324 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2326 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2327 '() when the condition is false.
2329 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2331 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2333 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2335 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2337 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2339 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2340 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2341 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2343 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2345 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2346 argument order for hash-fold.
2348 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2350 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2352 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2353 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2355 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2356 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2357 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2358 has been added to the load path).
2360 Use try-load-module.
2362 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2364 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2365 module between system and user state.
2367 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2369 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2371 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2374 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2376 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2377 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2378 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2380 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2382 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2383 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2384 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2385 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2386 stack frame encountered.
2388 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2389 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2390 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2391 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2394 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2395 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2396 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2397 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2400 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2401 define-module switches:
2403 (define-module (foo)
2406 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2409 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2410 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2411 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2412 module it is a system frame.
2414 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2415 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2416 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2417 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2418 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2420 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2421 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2422 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2423 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2424 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2425 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2427 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2428 status of a module.;
2429 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2430 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2432 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2433 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2434 closure to the module.
2436 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2438 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2440 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2442 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2444 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2446 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2448 Fix from Russ McManus:
2449 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2450 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2451 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2452 either an optional or required value.
2454 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2456 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2458 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2459 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2461 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2462 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2463 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2464 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2466 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2468 * optargs.scm: New file.
2469 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2470 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2472 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2474 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2475 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2476 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2478 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2480 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2481 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2484 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2486 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2488 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2490 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2491 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2492 applied to the module itself.
2494 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2496 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2498 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2499 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2501 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2503 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2505 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2507 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2509 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2511 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2512 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2514 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2516 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2517 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2518 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2519 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2520 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2521 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2522 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2524 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2526 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2527 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2529 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2531 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2532 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2535 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2537 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2539 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2541 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2543 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2545 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2546 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2547 adapt to the new hooks.
2549 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2551 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2552 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2553 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2555 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2556 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2558 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2559 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2560 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2561 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2562 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2563 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2564 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2565 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2566 first to register linked modules.
2568 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2569 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2570 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2572 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2573 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2574 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2575 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2577 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2579 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2582 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2583 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2584 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2586 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2588 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2589 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2590 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2592 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2594 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2595 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2596 result of the last form.
2598 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2600 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2603 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2605 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2606 readline-set!: New options interface.
2608 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2610 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2612 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2613 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2615 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2617 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2618 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2620 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2622 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2623 interactive session.
2624 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2626 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2627 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2629 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2631 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2633 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2635 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2636 read line was empty.
2638 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2640 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2641 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2643 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2645 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2647 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2648 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2649 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2651 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2652 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2654 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2655 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2656 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2658 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2659 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2660 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2661 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2662 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2663 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2665 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2667 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2668 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2670 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2672 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2673 and short vectors #h(...).
2675 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2677 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2678 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2679 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2681 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2683 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2684 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2685 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2687 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2689 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2690 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2692 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2693 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2694 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2695 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2697 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2699 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2702 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2703 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2704 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2705 context with traps enabled.
2707 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2709 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2711 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2713 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2715 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2716 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2717 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2718 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2719 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2721 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2723 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2724 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2726 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2728 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2730 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2732 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2734 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2736 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2738 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2740 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2741 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2743 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2745 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2746 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2747 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2748 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2751 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2752 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2753 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2755 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2757 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2758 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2759 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2760 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2761 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2762 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2763 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2765 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2767 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2769 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2771 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2772 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2773 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2774 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2775 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2776 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2778 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2780 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2781 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2782 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2785 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2787 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2789 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2791 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2793 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2795 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2798 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2800 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2802 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2804 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2805 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2807 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2809 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2810 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2811 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2812 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2814 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2815 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2817 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2819 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2821 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2823 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2824 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2827 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2828 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2830 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2831 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2832 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2834 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2836 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2838 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2840 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2841 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2843 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2845 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2847 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2849 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2850 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2852 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2854 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2857 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2859 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2860 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2862 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2864 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2866 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2868 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2871 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2873 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2874 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2875 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2876 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2877 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2880 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2882 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2883 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2884 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2886 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2888 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2890 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2891 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2893 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2895 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2896 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2897 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2898 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2899 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2900 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2901 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2904 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2906 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2909 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2911 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2912 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2913 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2914 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2915 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2916 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2918 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2920 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2921 usefully so they will work from a script.
2923 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2925 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2926 neighborhood of the record code.
2928 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2930 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2931 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2932 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2933 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2935 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2937 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2938 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2939 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2941 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2943 Add support for readline function.
2944 * readline.scm: New module.
2945 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2946 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2947 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2949 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2950 repl-reader to use them.
2951 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2953 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2955 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2957 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2958 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2960 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2962 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2963 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2964 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2966 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2968 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2969 #f, abort terminates the process.
2970 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2971 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2973 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2975 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2976 print-state, throw it away.
2978 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2980 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2983 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2985 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2986 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2987 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2988 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2990 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2991 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2993 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2995 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2997 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2999 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3000 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3001 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3002 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3003 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3005 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3006 distribution and installation.
3007 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3009 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3011 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3013 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3015 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3016 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3017 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3019 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3020 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3023 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3025 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3027 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3029 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3031 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3032 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3033 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3034 field a separate argument.
3036 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3038 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3040 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3042 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3046 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3048 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3050 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3052 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3053 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3054 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3055 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3056 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3057 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3059 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3060 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3061 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3062 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3063 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3066 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3068 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!

3072 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3073 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3075 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3077 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3079 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3080 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3081 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3082 expansion inside the slib module.
3084 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3086 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3087 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.

3092 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3094 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3095 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3096 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3098 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3099 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3102 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3104 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3105 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3107 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3109 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3110 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3111 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3112 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3113 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3114 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3115 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3116 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current

3122 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3124 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3125 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3126 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3127 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3128 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3130 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3131 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3132 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3134 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3135 the syncase interface.
3137 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3139 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3140 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3141 workings of the current module system).
3143 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3145 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3146 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

3157 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3158 according to the following priorities:
3159 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3160 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3162 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3163 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3164 (new-interpreter): New function.
3166 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3167 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3168 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3170 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3172 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3174 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3176 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

3180 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
3182 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
3184 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3186 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3187 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

3192 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3193 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
3194 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
3195 symbols matching regexp.
3197 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
3198 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3201 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3202 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3203 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
3204 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
3205 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3207 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
3208 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3210 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3212 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.

3244 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3245 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3246 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3248 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3249 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3252 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3253 order to narrow it correctly.
3254 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

3261 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3263 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3265 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3267 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3268 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3270 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3272 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3273 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3274 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3276 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

3301 notation, instead of #/ notation.
3303 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
3306 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3308 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
3309 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3310 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3311 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3312 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3313 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3315 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3316 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3317 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3318 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3320 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3322 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3323 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3324 sending in bug reports.
3325 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3326 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3327 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3328 display a warning if the two are different.
3329 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3330 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3331 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3333 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3335 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
3337 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3339 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3340 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3342 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3343 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3344 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3345 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3346 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3347 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3350 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3351 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3354 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3355 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3357 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3360 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3363 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3365 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
3368 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3370 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3371 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3373 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3375 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3376 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3377 to support printing of structures.
3378 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3379 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3380 commented out printing code.
3381 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3382 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
3384 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3386 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
3388 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3390 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
3391 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
3392 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3393 during call to scm-style-repl.
3395 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3397 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3398 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3399 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3400 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3401 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3403 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3405 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3406 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3409 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3411 * regex.scm: New file.
3412 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3413 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3415 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3417 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3418 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3419 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3420 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3422 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3424 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3427 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3429 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3430 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3431 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3433 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3435 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3436 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3439 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3441 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3443 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3445 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3447 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3449 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3450 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3453 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3455 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3456 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3457 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3459 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3461 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3462 the Scheme code like code yet.
3463 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3465 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3467 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3468 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3469 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3471 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3473 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3475 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3478 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3480 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3482 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3484 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3486 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3487 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3488 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3490 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3492 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3493 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3494 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3496 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3498 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3499 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3501 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3503 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3506 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3508 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3510 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3512 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3513 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3515 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3517 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3518 instead of in libguile.
3519 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3520 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3522 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3524 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3526 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3527 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3529 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3531 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3532 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3534 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3536 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3537 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3538 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3539 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3541 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3543 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3544 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3546 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3548 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3550 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3552 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3553 keywords and symbols.
3555 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3557 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3559 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3560 Don't define read-sharp.
3562 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3563 (read-sharp): removed.
3564 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3565 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3567 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3569 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3571 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3572 primitive procedure.)
3574 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3575 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3577 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3579 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3581 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3583 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3585 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3587 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3589 * (exit): alias for quit.
3591 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3593 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3594 return the quit args.
3595 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3596 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3597 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3599 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3601 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3603 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3605 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3606 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3608 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3609 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3611 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3612 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3615 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3617 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3619 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3620 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3621 Change hooks to use these functions.
3623 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3624 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3625 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3627 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3628 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3629 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3630 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3631 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3632 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3633 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3636 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3637 and exit-frame exceptions.
3639 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3640 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3641 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3642 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3643 result; otherwise display "> ".
3644 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3646 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3647 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3648 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3649 repository version runnable.
3651 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3653 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3654 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3655 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3656 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3657 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3658 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3660 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3662 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3663 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3665 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3667 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3668 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3670 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3672 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3674 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3676 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3679 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3681 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3682 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3684 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3686 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3689 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3691 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3692 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3694 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3696 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3698 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3699 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3700 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3701 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3702 dynamic linking of modules.
3703 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3704 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3706 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3708 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3710 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3712 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3715 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3716 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3719 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3721 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3722 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3723 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3725 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3727 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3728 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3731 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3733 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3734 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3735 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3737 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3739 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3740 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3741 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3742 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3744 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3745 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3746 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3747 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3748 (such as the-scm-module).
3750 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3752 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3755 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3757 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3758 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3759 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3761 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3763 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3764 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3765 function, use it accordingly.
3767 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3769 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3770 function of no arguments.
3771 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3772 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3773 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3774 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3775 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3776 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3777 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3778 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3780 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3782 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3783 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3785 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3787 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3788 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3789 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3790 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3791 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3793 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3796 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3797 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3798 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3799 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3801 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3803 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3805 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3806 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3807 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3809 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3812 Added `before-read-hook'.
3814 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3816 (provide): New function.
3818 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3821 (backtrace): New function.
3823 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3824 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3825 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3826 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3827 is found in operator position in a frame.
3829 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3832 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3833 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3834 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3836 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3838 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3840 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3842 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3844 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3846 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3848 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3849 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3851 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3852 so they'll get distributed.
3854 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3855 should see as little clutter as possible.
3856 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3857 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3858 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3860 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3861 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3862 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3863 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3864 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3865 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3866 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3867 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3868 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3869 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3871 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3872 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3874 * test.scm: New file.
3876 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3877 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3878 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3880 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3881 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3883 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3885 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3886 call %load-announce.
3888 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3890 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3891 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3892 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3894 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3896 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3898 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3899 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3900 SCSH (which this isn't).
3902 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3904 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3906 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3908 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3909 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3910 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3912 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3913 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3914 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3915 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3918 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3920 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3922 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3924 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3925 error-catching-loop.
3926 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3927 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3928 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3930 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3931 error-catching-loop.
3933 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3935 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3936 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3937 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3938 should be '(), not #f.
3940 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3941 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3943 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3945 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3946 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3949 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3951 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3952 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3953 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3954 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3956 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3958 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3960 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3962 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3964 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3965 throw-handler-default.
3966 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3968 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3970 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3971 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3973 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3975 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3976 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3977 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3978 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3980 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3982 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3983 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3984 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3985 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3987 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3988 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3989 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3990 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3993 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3995 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3997 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4000 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4003 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4005 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4007 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4008 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4010 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4012 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4014 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4016 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4018 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4019 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4020 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4021 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4022 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4024 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4025 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4026 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4027 they seem redundant.
4028 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4029 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4030 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4031 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4032 directly files starting with "/").
4033 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4034 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4036 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4038 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4040 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4041 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4042 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4043 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4044 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4045 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4046 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4047 robust to just do it in the C code.
4049 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4051 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4052 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4053 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4054 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4055 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4057 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4059 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4060 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4061 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4063 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4065 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4066 system-error, not every kind of error.
4067 (scm-error): new procedure.
4069 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4071 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4073 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4075 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4076 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4077 of args are supplied.
4078 (%%system-errors): removed.
4079 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4080 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4081 %%handle-system-error.
4082 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4083 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4084 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4085 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4087 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4089 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4090 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4091 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4092 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4094 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4096 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4097 the empty list if they are #f.
4098 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4100 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4102 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4104 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4105 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4106 aborting, just the key and subr.
4107 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4108 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4109 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4111 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4113 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4114 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4115 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4116 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4117 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4119 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4121 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4122 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4123 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4124 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4126 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4128 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4129 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4130 initialize %load-path.
4132 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4133 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4135 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4137 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4138 Add the directory named after the version number.
4139 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4140 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4141 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4142 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4143 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4144 (install): Create the above directories.
4145 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4146 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4148 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4150 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4151 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4152 in the Makefile directly.
4153 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4155 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4157 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4158 here, where people expect to find them.
4160 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4162 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4163 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4165 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4167 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4169 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
4170 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4172 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4174 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
4175 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
4177 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
4178 weak-key-hash-table.
4180 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4182 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
4183 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
4184 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
4185 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
4186 (%open-file): removed.
4187 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
4188 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
4190 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4192 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
4193 (manifest): Deleted.
4194 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
4195 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
4197 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4199 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
4200 now that they throw errors directly.
4201 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
4202 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
4204 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4206 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
4208 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
4210 * The more things change...
