1 2004-09-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
3 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): Correction, should recurse into
4 itself, not stream-for-each-one.
6 2004-09-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
8 * boot-9.scm (expt): Only call integer-expt for an exact integer
9 exponent, not for an inexact integer one. Also, let integer-expt
10 handle negative exponents instead of doing it here.
12 2004-09-02 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
14 * format.scm (format:out): Ignore excess arguments, per common lisp.
16 * format.scm (format:out-num-padded): Print "+" on 0 under @ modifier.
18 2004-08-27 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
20 * regex.scm (regexp-quote): [ and | must be quoted. Quote ( ) { + ?
21 using char class [(] etc since \( in fact makes them become special in
24 2004-08-25 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
26 * and-let-star.scm (and-let*): Give #t for an empty body, per srfi-2
27 spec, previously came out as an empty (begin).

37 (write-frame-short/expression): Likewise.
39 2004-08-18 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
41 * and-let-star.scm: Add cond-expand-provide srfi-2, since this module
42 provides that feature.
43 * receive.scm: Add cond-expand-provide srfi-8, since this module
44 provides that feature.
46 2004-08-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
48 From Matthias Koeppe. Thanks!
50 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): In the local procedure `wr', use
51 object->string to print all data (except for the reader macros),
52 rather than implementing an own printer. The user-visible
53 difference is that procedures and control characters like #\tab
54 are now printed in the same way as by `write'.
56 2004-08-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
58 * slib.scm (*features*): Remove array and array-for-each, core
59 definitions are insufficient for latest slib.
60 (t, nil): New constants slib says are supposed to exist.
61 (call-with-open-ports, browse-url): New functions for latest slib.
62 Implementations taken from Template.scm (public domain).
63 (open-file): Extend core definition to accept symbols for the mode,
64 required by latest slib.
65 (delete-file): Replace core definition with version returning #t/#f as
67 (system): Mark as #:replace to suppress override warning, use new
68 style "(@ (guile) system)" to call core function.
70 2004-05-25 Matthias Koeppe <mkoeppe@mail.math.uni-magdeburg.de>
72 * format.scm: Remove the arbitrary limit of 100 iterations for the
73 ~{...~} control structure.
75 2004-07-10 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
77 * and-let-star.scm (and-let*): Remove unused variable "val".
78 * pretty-print.scm (read-macro-prefix): Remove unused variable "tail".
80 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Add srfi-6 which is in the core.
82 * safe-r5rs.scm (re-export): Uncomment numerator, denominator,
83 rationalize, since they now exist.
85 2004-07-05 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
87 * slib.scm (system): Correction to redefinition, now guile is stricter
88 about when a define binding comes into existance.
90 2004-05-29 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
92 * boot-9.scm: Reordered definitions such that macro definitions
93 preceed their first usage. Include and define deprecated stuff
94 late in the file to have a better change of detecting accidental
95 uses of deprecated definitions. Further, unified the layout a
96 little and grouped definitions more cleanly into topics.
98 2004-05-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
100 * history.scm (use-value-history): Use resolve-interface instead
101 of resolve-module so that only the exported bindings are searched.
102 (save-value-history): Export the newly defined variable. Reported
103 by Wolfgang Jaehrling.
105 2004-05-04 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
107 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): Always start searching from the
108 root module. This will allow the C equivalent scm_resolve_module
109 to work, independent of what the current module is.
111 2004-02-18 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
113 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Make the (guile-user) module use the
116 2004-02-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
118 * boot-9.scm (module-map): Renamed hash-map -> hash-map->list.
120 2004-02-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
122 * debugger/trap-hooks.scm (debug-hook-membership): New, exported.
124 * debugger/commands.scm (debug-trap-hooks): New, exported.
126 2004-02-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
128 * debugger/breakpoints/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES),
129 debugger/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES), Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES): Use
130 this variable instead of ETAGS_ARGS so that TAGS can be built
131 using separate build directory.
133 2004-01-20 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
135 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Back out 2003-11-19 change to
136 lazy-handler-dispatch lookup.
138 2004-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
140 * mapping.scm: Use '#:' prefix for keywords instead of ':'.
141 Thanks to Richard Todd!
143 2004-01-11 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
145 * slib.scm (system): New function, giving an exit code return in
146 accordance with slib spec.
148 Revert this, it breaks test-suite/tests/r5rs_pitfalls.test where
149 false-if-exception is used within syntax-rules. (Suspect syntax-rules
150 ought to support this sort of thing, but it doesn't right now.)
151 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
152 to depend on expansion environment.
154 2004-01-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
156 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): Use with-fluid* when only one fluid is
159 2004-01-07 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
161 * q.scm (q-pop!): Should be "null?" not "not" for end-of-list.
162 Reported by Richard Todd.
164 2004-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
166 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
167 to depend on expansion environment.
169 * slib.scm (-1+, <?, <=?, =?, >?, >=?): Define as aliases for 1-, <,
170 <=, =, >, >= respectively, required by slib 'rev2-procedures but no
171 longer in the guile core.
173 2003-11-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
175 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Defer lookup of
176 lazy-handler-dispatch.

182 2003-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
184 * boot-9.scm: Started comment about module system workings.
186 2003-11-11 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
188 * debugger.scm: Change ui-* calls to gds-*.
189 (debug-on-error): Debug if throw key is in specified syms, not if
190 it isn't! Also throw 'abort after debugging, so as to skip the
193 * debugger/behaviour.scm (*trap*): New variable, stores trap type.
194 (before-enter-frame-hook, before-apply-frame-hook,
195 before-exit-frame-hook): Set here.

197 (at-step, at-next): Changed to debug at frame exit points as well.
199 * debugger/utils.scm: Big comment added.

208 debug immediately on connection.
209 (ui-eval): Handle exceptions during read and evaluation.
211 * debugger.scm (debug-on-error, default-default-lazy-handler):
212 Remove an unnecessary level of indirection in calling lazy
215 2003-10-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
217 * ftw.scm (directory-files): Close dir-stream when done. Thanks
220 2003-10-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
222 * poe.scm (funcq-assoc): Rewrite, don't assume '() is false, and
223 actually traverse the given alist.
225 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
227 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
231 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
233 * debugger/ui-client.scm (ui-disable-async-thread,
234 ui-continue-async-thread, start-async-ui-thread): New.
235 (ui-command-loop): Call ui-disable-async-thread and
236 ui-continue-async-thread.
237 (handle-instruction): Read terminating newline char so it doesn't
238 cause following select to pop immediately.
240 2003-09-25 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
242 * debugger/ui-client.scm, debugger/ui-server.scm: New (work in
243 progress on new debugging front end).
245 2003-09-24 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
247 * debugger.scm (default-default-lazy-handler, debug-on-error):
250 * debugger/behaviour.scm (debug-if-flag-set): Display debug entry
251 messages through (debugger-output-port).

267 reentrant. No mutex is necessary. Thanks to Clinton Ebadi!
269 2003-09-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
271 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
272 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
273 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
274 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
275 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
277 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
279 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
280 the obarray, not an empty vector.
281 (make-module): Always construct a hashtable for the obarray, even
284 * format.scm (format:error): Use 'format:format' instead of
285 'format' since the latter will lock the mutex again that we have
287 (format:format-work): Flag multiple '#' as an error.
289 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
291 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
292 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
294 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
296 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
297 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
298 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
300 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
301 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
303 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
305 * threads.scm (parallel): For no forms, use `(values)' not `(begin)'.
307 2003-05-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

312 2003-05-20 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>

319 call-with-input-file, to close ports when done.
321 2003-05-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>

324 instead of substring-move-left! or substring-move-right!. Thanks
327 * deprecated.scm (substring-move-left!, substring-move-right!):
330 * boot-9.scm (display-usage-report): Use keyword->symbol instead
331 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.
333 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-get-handle): Pass only the expected four
334 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
336 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
337 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
339 2003-04-25 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kvast.blakulla.net>
341 * serialize.scm: New file.
343 2003-04-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
345 * threads.scm (n-for-each-par-map): New procedure.
347 2003-04-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>

354 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added.
356 * boot-9.scm: Load "ice-9/deprecated.scm" when appropriate.

365 * list.scm: New file.
367 2003-03-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
369 * format.scm (format:out-substr): Update the column counter
370 correctly. This fixes the behavior of ~T (tabbing) after ~F, for
371 instance. Thanks to Matthias Koeppe!
373 2003-03-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
375 * session.scm (apropos): Don't look in duplicates interface.
377 2003-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
379 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers): Make sure the merge-generics
380 and merge-accessors handlers are available also before (oop goops)
381 has been loaded. This is so that people can put them as default
382 handlers without worrying about availability.
384 * slib.scm (logical:ipow-by-squaring): Removed.

415 default-module-duplicates-handler; Removed converter.

465 * boot-9.scm (make-module): Changed default size from 1021 to 31
466 (since the size now adapts).

484 * syncase.scm (guile-macro): Strip syntactic information from
485 expression before trying to treat it as a Guile macro call.
486 (Thanks to Kevin Ryde.)
488 2003-01-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>

513 in output. (We normally *would* like also these expressions to be
514 quoted, but until Guile's native macros and syncase cooperates
515 better, it is less destructive not to quote.)

598 Thanks to Mikael Djurfeldt for a bugreport which led to the
601 * slib.scm (%system-define): Removed.
603 (define): Changed to use define-private instead of
606 * boot-9.scm (define-private): Undid my changes from 2002-11-16
607 until Guile supports hygienic macros.
609 2002-11-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
611 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it
612 has been removed from the core.
614 2002-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
616 * syncase.scm (define-syntax, eval-when, fluid-let-syntax,
617 identifier-syntax, let-syntax, letrec-syntax, syntax, syntax-case,

619 'real' macro definitions.
621 2002-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
623 * boot-9.scm (define-private, export-syntax, export-syntax):

626 2002-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
628 * boot-9.scm (define-private, export-syntax, export-syntax):
629 Changed definitions to form 'real' macro definitions.
631 2002-11-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
633 * format.scm (format): Use 'monitor' properly. Not the definition
634 needs to be restricted, the actual function needs to be.
636 2002-11-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
638 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): Fix to "simplification"

658 it is not thread-safe.
660 2002-10-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
662 * threads.scm (%thread-handler): Explicitely return '#f'. This
663 value will be returned by join-thread.
665 2002-10-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

706 should be unnecessary now.
708 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
710 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in
711 guile-user-module (should it be there?) instead of

813 * Makefile.am: Update path to pre-inst-guile automake frag.
815 * boot-9.scm: Comment grammar fixes; nfc.
816 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
818 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
820 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
821 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
822 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
824 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
826 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

830 2002-02-05 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

834 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
836 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
838 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
839 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
840 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
841 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
843 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
845 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
847 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
848 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
849 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
851 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
853 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

870 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
871 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

875 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
876 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
877 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
878 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
881 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
883 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
886 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
888 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
889 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
890 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
891 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
893 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
895 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
896 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
897 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of

918 the `arglist' procedure property.
919 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to

926 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
927 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
930 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
932 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
934 (feature?): Deprecated.
936 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,
937 eval-in-module, split-c-module-name,
938 (convert-c-registered-modules, registered-modules,

945 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,

952 needed to trick export.
954 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
956 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
958 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
960 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
962 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
964 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
966 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
967 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
968 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
970 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
972 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
973 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
975 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
977 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
979 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
981 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
985 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
987 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
988 last-command fluid is not yet set.
990 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
992 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
994 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
995 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
996 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
998 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
1000 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
1001 handle :use-syntax correctly.
1003 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1005 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
1006 compile-psyntax.scm.
1008 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1010 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
1011 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
1012 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
1013 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
1014 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
1016 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1018 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
1019 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
1020 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
1022 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1024 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
1025 primitives. Thanks Neil!
1027 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1029 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
1030 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
1031 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
1032 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
1034 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
1035 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
1036 since there aren't definitions for them.
1038 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
1039 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
1041 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1043 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
1044 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
1046 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
1048 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
1049 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
1051 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1053 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
1054 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
1055 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
1057 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1059 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
1061 * tags.scm: Removed file.
1063 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1065 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
1066 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
1068 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
1069 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
1070 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
1073 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1075 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
1076 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
1078 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1080 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
1081 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
1083 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
1084 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
1085 evaluator trap options.)
1087 2001-06-25 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1089 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
1091 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1093 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
1095 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1097 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
1099 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1101 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
1102 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
1104 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1107 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
1108 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
1109 No longer require `pretty-print'.
1111 (slib:error): Delete.
1112 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
1114 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1119 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
1123 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1125 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
1126 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
1127 rdelim) module. See below.
1129 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1131 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
1132 include-deprecated-features is true.
1134 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1136 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
1139 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
1140 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
1141 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1143 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
1144 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
1145 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
1148 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1150 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
1151 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
1152 variable, not just a visible one.
1153 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
1154 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
1155 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
1156 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
1157 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
1158 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
1160 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
1162 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
1163 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
1165 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1167 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
1168 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
1170 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1172 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
1174 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1176 Added exception notice to all files.
1178 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
1179 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
1180 importing bindings once in a while.
1182 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

1207 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
1208 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.

1723 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1724 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1725 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1726 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1727 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1728 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1730 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1732 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1733 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1735 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1737 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1740 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1742 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1745 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1747 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1749 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1751 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1752 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1753 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1754 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1755 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
1756 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
1757 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1758 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
1759 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
1760 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1761 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1762 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1763 make-shared-substring.
1765 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1767 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1768 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1769 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1770 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1773 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1775 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1776 and open-output-pipe.
1778 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1780 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1781 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1782 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1783 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1784 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1785 Pirotte for the bug report).
1786 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1787 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1789 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1791 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
1792 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
1794 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1796 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
1798 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1800 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): regexp-exec does not
1801 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
1804 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1806 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
1809 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1811 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1812 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1813 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1815 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1816 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1817 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1818 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1819 actual documentation entries themselves.
1821 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1823 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1825 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1827 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
1829 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1831 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
1832 Convert first argument to a string.
1834 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
1835 getter-and-setter-syntax,
1836 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
1837 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
1839 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
1841 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
1843 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1845 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1847 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1849 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1851 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1853 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1854 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1855 even worked... /mdj.
1856 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1858 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1861 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1863 * psyntax.ss (set!): Added generalized set! support to core syntax
1866 2000-08-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1868 * optargs.scm (#\&): Changed #:allow-other-keys-value to
1869 #:allow-other-keys. Thanks to Bill Schottstaedt!

1873 * optargs.scm (#\&): Emit warning about `#&' being deprecated.
1875 2000-08-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1877 * optargs.scm: Replaced `#&' reader syntax with keywords.
1879 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1881 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
1884 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1886 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1887 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1888 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1889 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1890 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1892 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1894 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1896 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1897 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1899 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1902 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1903 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1904 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1905 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1907 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1909 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
1910 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
1912 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
1914 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1915 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1917 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1919 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1920 definition of module-type.
1922 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1924 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1926 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1928 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1929 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1931 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1933 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1935 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1937 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1938 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1939 Mikael for the suggestion.
1941 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1943 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1944 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1946 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1948 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1951 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1953 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1955 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1957 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1958 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1961 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1962 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1965 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1967 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1968 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1970 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1971 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1972 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1974 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1976 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1978 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1980 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1981 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1983 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1985 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1986 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1988 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1990 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1991 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1993 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1995 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1997 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1999 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
2001 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2003 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
2005 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
2006 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
2008 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
2010 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
2013 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
2014 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
2015 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
2016 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
2019 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
2021 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
2023 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2025 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
2026 (write-all): Removed.
2027 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
2028 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
2030 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
2032 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
2033 `proc-documentation'
2035 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
2036 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
2037 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
2038 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
2039 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
2040 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
2041 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
2044 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2046 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
2048 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2050 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
2051 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
2052 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
2055 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2057 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
2058 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
2059 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
2060 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
2061 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
2062 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
2063 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
2065 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2067 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
2068 accept complex numbers as parameter.
2070 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2072 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
2073 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
2075 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2077 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
2078 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
2079 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
2080 instead of remove-if when iterating.
2081 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
2082 delete-if! when iterating.
2084 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2086 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
2088 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2090 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
2092 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2094 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
2095 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
2096 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
2097 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
2099 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2101 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
2102 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
2104 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2106 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
2107 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
2108 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
2109 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
2111 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
2113 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
2114 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
2116 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2118 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
2119 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
2121 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2123 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
2126 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2128 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
2129 source of the numerous very short changes.
2131 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2133 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
2136 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
2139 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2141 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
2144 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2146 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
2147 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
2149 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2151 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
2154 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2156 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
2157 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
2158 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
2160 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2162 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
2163 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
2164 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
2165 Narazaki for this change.
2167 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2169 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
2170 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
2173 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
2174 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
2176 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2178 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
2179 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
2181 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2183 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
2184 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
2185 use define-public to export from the module.
2187 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2189 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
2190 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
2191 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
2193 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2195 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
2197 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2199 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
2200 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
2202 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2204 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
2206 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
2208 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
2210 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2212 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
2213 long_long uniform vectors.
2215 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2217 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
2218 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
2220 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2222 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
2223 script to create generated files like this one.
2225 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2227 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2228 available before using getpw and getuid.
2229 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2230 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2232 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2233 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2234 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2236 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2237 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2238 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2240 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2241 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2243 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2245 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2247 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2248 than 'exit-debugger.
2250 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2251 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2253 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
2255 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2257 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
2258 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
2259 ("position"): New command.
2260 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2261 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
2262 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
2263 to return a valid state.)
2264 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
2266 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2268 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
2269 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
2272 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2274 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2275 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2277 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2279 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2281 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2283 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2284 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2286 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2287 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2288 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2290 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2293 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2295 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2296 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2298 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2300 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2302 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2303 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2304 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2305 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2307 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2310 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2311 both forward and backward views of the stack
2312 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2313 Use selector `frame-number';
2314 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2315 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2317 Use readline conditionally.
2319 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2321 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2322 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2323 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2325 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2326 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2329 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2331 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2333 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2335 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2337 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2339 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2341 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2342 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2343 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2344 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2345 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2346 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2347 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2348 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2349 libguile-config-stamp.
2350 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2351 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2352 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2353 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2354 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2356 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2358 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2359 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2360 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2362 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2363 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2364 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2365 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2368 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2370 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2372 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2374 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2376 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2377 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2379 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2381 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2382 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2383 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2384 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2385 objects starting with '#/'.
2387 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2389 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2390 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2391 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2392 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2393 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2394 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2396 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2397 module-modified): New procedures.
2398 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2399 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2401 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2403 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2406 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2408 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2409 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2410 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2412 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2415 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2417 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2418 at multiple calls to read.
2419 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2420 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2421 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2422 continued-lines prompt.
2424 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2425 reading expressions.
2427 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2429 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2430 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2432 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2434 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2435 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2438 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2440 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2441 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2443 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2444 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2445 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2446 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2447 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2450 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2452 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2453 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2455 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2457 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2458 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2459 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2460 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2462 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2464 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2466 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2467 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2468 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2471 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2473 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2474 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2475 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2476 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2477 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2478 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2479 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2480 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2481 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2482 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2483 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2485 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2487 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2488 peeked from the stream.
2489 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2490 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2491 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2493 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2495 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2496 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2498 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2500 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2501 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2502 exiting repl with single control-D.
2504 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2506 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2507 error catching loop after quit received.
2508 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2510 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2511 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2512 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2514 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2515 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2517 * popen.scm: new file.
2519 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2521 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2522 (reverse-iota): removed.
2524 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2526 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2527 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2529 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2531 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2532 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2533 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2534 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2535 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2537 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2539 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2541 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2542 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2544 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2545 Guile's module system.
2547 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2549 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2550 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2551 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2552 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2553 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2554 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2556 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2557 '() when the condition is false.
2559 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2561 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2563 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2565 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2567 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2569 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2570 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2571 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2573 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2575 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2576 argument order for hash-fold.
2578 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2580 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2582 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2583 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2585 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2586 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2587 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2588 has been added to the load path).
2590 Use try-load-module.
2592 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2594 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2595 module between system and user state.
2597 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2599 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2601 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2604 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2606 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2607 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2608 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2610 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2612 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2613 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2614 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2615 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2616 stack frame encountered.
2618 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2619 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2620 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2621 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2624 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2625 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2626 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2627 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2630 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2631 define-module switches:
2633 (define-module (foo)
2636 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2639 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2640 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2641 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2642 module it is a system frame.
2644 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2645 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2646 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2647 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2648 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2650 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2651 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2652 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2653 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2654 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2655 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2657 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2658 status of a module.;
2659 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2660 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2662 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2663 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2664 closure to the module.
2666 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2668 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2670 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2672 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2674 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2676 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2678 Fix from Russ McManus:
2679 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2680 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2681 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2682 either an optional or required value.
2684 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2686 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2688 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2689 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2691 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2692 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2693 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2694 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2696 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2698 * optargs.scm: New file.
2699 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2700 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2702 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2704 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2705 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2706 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2708 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2710 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2711 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2714 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2716 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2718 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2720 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2721 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2722 applied to the module itself.
2724 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2726 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2728 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2729 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2731 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2733 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2735 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2737 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2739 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2741 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2742 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2744 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2746 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2747 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2748 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2749 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2750 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2751 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2752 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2754 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2756 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2757 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2759 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2761 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2762 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2765 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2767 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2769 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2771 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2773 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2775 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2776 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2777 adapt to the new hooks.
2779 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2781 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2782 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2783 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2785 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2786 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2788 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2789 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2790 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2791 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2792 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2793 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2794 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2795 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2796 first to register linked modules.
2798 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2799 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2800 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2802 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2803 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2804 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2805 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2807 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2809 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2812 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2813 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2814 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2816 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2818 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2819 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2820 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2822 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2824 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2825 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2826 result of the last form.
2828 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2830 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2833 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2835 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2836 readline-set!: New options interface.
2838 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2840 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2842 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2843 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2845 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2847 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2848 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2850 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2852 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2853 interactive session.
2854 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2856 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2857 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2859 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2861 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2863 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2865 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2866 read line was empty.
2868 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2870 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2871 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2873 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2875 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2877 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2878 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2879 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2881 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2882 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2884 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2885 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2886 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2888 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2889 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2890 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2891 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2892 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2893 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2895 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2897 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2898 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2900 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2902 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2903 and short vectors #h(...).
2905 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2907 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2908 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2909 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2911 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2913 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2914 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2915 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2917 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2919 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2920 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2922 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2923 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2924 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2925 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2927 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2929 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2932 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2933 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2934 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2935 context with traps enabled.
2937 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2939 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2941 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2943 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2945 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2946 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2947 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2948 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2949 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2951 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2953 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2954 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2956 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2958 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2960 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2962 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2964 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2966 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2968 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2970 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2971 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2973 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2975 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2976 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2977 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2978 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2981 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2982 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2983 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2985 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2987 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2988 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2989 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2990 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2991 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2992 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2993 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2995 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2997 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2999 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3001 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
3002 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
3003 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
3004 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
3005 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
3006 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
3008 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3010 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
3011 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
3012 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
3015 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3017 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
3019 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3021 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
3023 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
3025 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
3028 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3030 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
3032 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3034 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
3035 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
3037 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3039 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
3040 similar in use to `use-modules'.
3041 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
3042 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
3044 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
3045 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
3047 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3049 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
3051 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3053 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
3054 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
3057 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
3058 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
3060 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
3061 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
3062 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
3064 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
3066 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3068 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
3070 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
3071 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
3073 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3075 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
3077 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3079 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
3080 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
3082 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
3084 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
3087 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3089 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
3090 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
3092 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3094 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
3096 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3098 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
3101 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3103 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
3104 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
3105 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
3106 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
3107 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
3110 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3112 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
3113 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
3114 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
3116 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3118 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
3120 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
3121 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
3123 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3125 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
3126 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
3127 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
3128 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
3129 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
3130 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
3131 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
3134 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3136 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
3139 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3141 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
3142 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
3143 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
3144 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
3145 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
3146 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
3148 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3150 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
3151 usefully so they will work from a script.
3153 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3155 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
3156 neighborhood of the record code.
3158 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3160 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
3161 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
3162 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
3163 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
3165 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3167 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
3168 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
3169 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3171 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3173 Add support for readline function.
3174 * readline.scm: New module.
3175 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
3176 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
3177 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
3179 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
3180 repl-reader to use them.
3181 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
3183 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
3185 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3187 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3188 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
3190 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3192 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
3193 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
3194 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
3196 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3198 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
3199 #f, abort terminates the process.
3200 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
3201 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
3203 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3205 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
3206 print-state, throw it away.
3208 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3210 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
3213 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3215 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
3216 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
3217 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
3218 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
3220 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
3221 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
3223 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3225 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3227 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3229 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3230 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3231 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3232 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3233 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3235 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3236 distribution and installation.
3237 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3239 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3241 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3243 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3245 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3246 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3247 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3249 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3250 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3253 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3255 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3257 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3259 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3261 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3262 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3263 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3264 field a separate argument.
3266 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3268 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3270 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3272 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3276 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3278 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3280 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3282 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3283 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3284 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3285 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3286 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3287 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3289 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3290 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3291 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3292 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3293 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3296 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3298 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
3300 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3302 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3303 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3305 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3307 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3309 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3310 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3311 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3312 expansion inside the slib module.

3324 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3325 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3326 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3328 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3329 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has

3352 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3354 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3355 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3356 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3357 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3358 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3360 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3361 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3362 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3364 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3365 the syncase interface.
3367 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3369 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3370 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner

3375 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3376 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

3387 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3388 according to the following priorities:
3389 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3390 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3392 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3393 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3394 (new-interpreter): New function.
3396 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3397 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3398 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).

3438 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3440 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3442 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.

3445 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
3446 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
3448 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
3450 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3452 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling

3472 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3474 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3475 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3476 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3478 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3479 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3482 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3483 order to narrow it correctly.
3484 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

3498 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3500 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3502 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3503 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3504 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3506 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3508 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces

3538 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
3539 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3540 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3541 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3542 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3543 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3545 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3546 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3547 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3548 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3550 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3552 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3553 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3554 sending in bug reports.
3555 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3556 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3557 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3558 display a warning if the two are different.
3559 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3560 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.

3569 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3570 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3572 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3573 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3574 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3575 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3576 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3577 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3580 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3581 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3584 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3585 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3587 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3590 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3593 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

3605 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3606 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3607 to support printing of structures.
3608 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3609 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3610 commented out printing code.
3611 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3612 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".

3623 during call to scm-style-repl.
3625 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3627 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3628 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3629 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3630 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3631 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3633 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3635 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3636 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3639 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3641 * regex.scm: New file.
3642 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.

3650 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3652 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3654 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3657 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3659 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3660 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3661 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3663 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3665 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3666 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy

3671 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.

3675 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3677 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3679 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3680 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3683 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3685 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3686 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3687 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3689 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3691 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3692 the Scheme code like code yet.
3693 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3695 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3697 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3698 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3699 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3701 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3703 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the

3710 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3712 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3714 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3716 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3717 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3718 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3720 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3722 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3723 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.

3766 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3767 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,

3771 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3773 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,

3787 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3789 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3790 Don't define read-sharp.
3792 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3793 (read-sharp): removed.
3794 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take

3821 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3823 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3824 return the quit args.
3825 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3826 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3827 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3829 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3831 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3833 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3835 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3836 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3838 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3839 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3841 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3842 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3845 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3847 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3849 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3850 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3851 Change hooks to use these functions.
3853 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3854 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3855 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3857 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3858 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3859 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3860 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3861 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3862 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3863 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3866 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3867 and exit-frame exceptions.
3869 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3870 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3871 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3872 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3873 result; otherwise display "> ".
3874 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3876 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3877 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3878 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3879 repository version runnable.
3881 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3883 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3884 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3885 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3886 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3887 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3888 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3890 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3892 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3893 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3895 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3897 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3898 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3900 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3902 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3904 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3906 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3909 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3911 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3912 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3914 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3916 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3919 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3921 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3922 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3924 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3926 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3928 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3929 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3930 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3931 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3932 dynamic linking of modules.
3933 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3934 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3936 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3938 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3940 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3942 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3945 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3946 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3949 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3951 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3952 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3953 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3955 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3957 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3958 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3961 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3963 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3964 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3965 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3967 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3969 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3970 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3971 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3972 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3974 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3975 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3976 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3977 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3978 (such as the-scm-module).
3980 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3982 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3985 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3987 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3988 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3989 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3991 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3993 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3994 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3995 function, use it accordingly.
3997 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3999 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
4000 function of no arguments.
4001 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
4002 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
4003 set-current-module): Uses changed.
4004 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
4005 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
4006 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
4007 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
4008 *top-level-eval-closure*.
4010 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4012 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
4013 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
4015 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4017 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
4018 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
4019 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
4020 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
4021 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
4023 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
4026 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
4027 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
4028 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
4029 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
4031 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
4033 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
4035 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
4036 If the user wants to see this, he can do
4037 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
4039 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
4042 Added `before-read-hook'.
4044 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
4046 (provide): New function.
4048 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
4051 (backtrace): New function.
4053 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
4054 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
4055 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
4056 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
4057 is found in operator position in a frame.
4059 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
4062 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
4063 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
4064 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
4066 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
4068 (library-vicinity): Updated.
4070 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
4072 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
4074 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4076 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
4078 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
4079 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
4081 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
4082 so they'll get distributed.
4084 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
4085 should see as little clutter as possible.
4086 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
4087 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
4088 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
4090 * r4rs.scm: New file.
4091 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
4092 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
4093 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
4094 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
4095 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
4096 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
4097 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
4098 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
4099 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
4101 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
4102 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
4104 * test.scm: New file.
4106 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
4107 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
4108 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
4110 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
4111 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
4113 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
4115 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
4116 call %load-announce.
4118 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4120 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
4121 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
4122 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
4124 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
4126 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4128 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
4129 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
4130 SCSH (which this isn't).
4132 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4134 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4136 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4138 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
4139 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
4140 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
4142 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
4143 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
4144 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
4145 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
4148 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4150 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
4152 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
4154 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
4155 error-catching-loop.
4156 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
4157 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
4158 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
4160 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
4161 error-catching-loop.
4163 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4165 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
4166 (make-module): Rework for readability.
4167 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
4168 should be '(), not #f.
4170 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
4171 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
4173 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4175 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
4176 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
4179 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4181 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
4182 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
4183 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
4184 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
4186 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4188 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
4190 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4192 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
4194 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
4195 throw-handler-default.
4196 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
4198 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
4200 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
4201 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
4203 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4205 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
4206 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
4207 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
4208 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
4210 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4212 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
4213 Append "." to the default %load-path.
4214 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
4215 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
4217 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
4218 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
4219 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
4220 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
4223 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4225 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4227 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4230 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4233 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4235 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4237 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4238 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4240 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4242 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4244 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4246 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4248 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4249 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4250 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4251 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4252 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4254 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4255 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4256 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4257 they seem redundant.
4258 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4259 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4260 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4261 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4262 directly files starting with "/").
4263 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4264 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4266 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4268 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4270 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4271 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4272 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4273 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4274 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4275 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4276 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4277 robust to just do it in the C code.
4279 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4281 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4282 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4283 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4284 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4285 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4287 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4289 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4290 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4291 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4293 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4295 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4296 system-error, not every kind of error.
4297 (scm-error): new procedure.
4299 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4301 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4303 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4305 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4306 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4307 of args are supplied.
4308 (%%system-errors): removed.
4309 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4310 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4311 %%handle-system-error.
4312 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4313 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4314 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4315 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4317 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4319 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4320 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4321 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4322 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4324 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4326 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4327 the empty list if they are #f.

4343 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4344 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4345 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4346 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4347 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4349 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4351 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown

4359 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4360 initialize %load-path.
4362 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4363 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4365 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4367 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4368 Add the directory named after the version number.
4369 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.

4382 in the Makefile directly.

4385 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and

4400 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4402 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>

4422 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
4423 (manifest): Deleted.
4424 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a

4427 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4429 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
