1 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
3 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
4 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
5 Mikael for the suggestion.
7 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
9 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
10 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
12 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
14 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
17 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
19 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
21 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
23 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
24 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
27 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
28 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
31 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
33 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
34 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
36 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
37 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
38 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
40 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
42 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
44 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
46 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
47 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
49 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
51 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
52 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
54 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
56 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
57 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
59 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
61 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
63 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
65 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
67 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
69 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
71 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
72 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
74 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
76 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
79 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
80 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
81 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
82 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
85 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
87 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
89 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
91 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
93 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
94 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
96 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
98 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
101 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
102 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
103 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
104 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
105 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
106 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
107 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
110 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
112 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
114 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
116 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
117 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
118 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
121 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
123 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
124 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
125 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
126 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
127 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
128 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
129 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
131 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
133 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
134 accept complex numbers as parameter.
136 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
138 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
139 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
141 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
143 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
144 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
145 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
146 instead of remove-if when iterating.
147 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
148 delete-if! when iterating.
150 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
152 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
154 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
156 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
158 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
160 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
161 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
162 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
163 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
165 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
167 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
168 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
170 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
172 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
173 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
174 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
175 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
177 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
179 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
180 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
182 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
184 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
185 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
187 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
189 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
192 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
194 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
195 source of the numerous very short changes.
197 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
199 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
202 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
205 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
207 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
210 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
212 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
213 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
215 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
217 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
220 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
222 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
223 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
224 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
226 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
228 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
229 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
230 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
231 Narazaki for this change.
233 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
235 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
236 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
239 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
240 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
242 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
244 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
245 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
247 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
249 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
250 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
251 use define-public to export from the module.
253 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
255 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
256 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
257 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
259 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
261 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
263 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
265 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
266 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
268 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
270 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
272 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
274 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
276 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
278 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
279 long_long uniform vectors.
281 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
283 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
284 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
286 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
288 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
289 script to create generated files like this one.
291 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
293 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
294 available before using getpw and getuid.
295 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
296 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
298 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
299 check for .guile, instead of stat.
300 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
302 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
303 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
304 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
306 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
307 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
309 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
311 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
313 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
316 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
317 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
319 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
321 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
323 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
324 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
325 ("position"): New command.
326 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
327 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
328 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
329 to return a valid state.)
330 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
332 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
334 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
335 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
338 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
340 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
341 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
343 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
345 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
347 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
349 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
350 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
352 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
353 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
354 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
356 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
359 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
361 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
362 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
364 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
366 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
368 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
369 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
370 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
371 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
373 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
376 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
377 both forward and backward views of the stack
378 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
379 Use selector `frame-number';
380 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
381 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
383 Use readline conditionally.
385 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
387 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
388 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
389 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
391 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
392 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
395 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
397 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
399 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
401 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
403 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
405 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
407 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
408 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
409 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
410 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
411 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
412 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
413 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
414 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
415 libguile-config-stamp.
416 * version.scm.in: Delete.
417 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
418 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
419 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
420 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
422 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
424 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
425 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
426 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
428 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
429 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
430 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
431 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
434 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
436 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
438 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
440 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
442 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
443 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
445 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
447 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
448 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
449 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
450 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
451 objects starting with '#/'.
453 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
455 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
456 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
457 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
458 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
459 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
460 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
462 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
463 module-modified): New procedures.
464 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
465 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
467 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
469 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
472 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
474 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
475 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
476 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
478 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
481 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
483 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
484 at multiple calls to read.
485 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
486 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
487 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
488 continued-lines prompt.
490 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
493 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
495 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
496 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
498 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
500 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
501 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
504 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
506 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
507 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
509 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
510 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
511 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
512 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
513 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
516 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
518 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
519 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
521 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
523 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
524 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
525 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
526 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
528 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
530 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
532 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
533 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
534 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
537 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
539 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
540 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
541 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
542 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
543 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
544 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
545 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
546 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
547 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
548 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
549 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
551 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
553 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
554 peeked from the stream.
555 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
556 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
557 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
559 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
561 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
562 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
564 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
566 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
567 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
568 exiting repl with single control-D.
570 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
572 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
573 error catching loop after quit received.
574 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
576 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
577 primitive exit if non-interactive.
578 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
580 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
581 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
583 * popen.scm: new file.
585 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
587 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
588 (reverse-iota): removed.
590 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
592 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
593 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
595 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
597 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
598 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
599 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
600 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
601 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
603 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
605 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
607 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
608 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
610 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
611 Guile's module system.
613 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
615 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
616 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
617 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
618 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
619 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
620 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
622 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
623 '() when the condition is false.
625 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
627 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
629 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
631 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
633 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
635 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
636 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
637 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
639 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
641 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
642 argument order for hash-fold.
644 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
646 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
648 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
649 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
651 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
652 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
653 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
654 has been added to the load path).
658 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
660 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
661 module between system and user state.
663 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
665 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
667 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
670 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
672 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
673 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
674 system can create a wrapper class for it.
676 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
678 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
679 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
680 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
681 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
682 stack frame encountered.
684 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
685 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
686 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
687 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
690 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
691 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
692 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
693 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
696 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
697 define-module switches:
702 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
705 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
706 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
707 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
708 module it is a system frame.
710 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
711 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
712 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
713 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
714 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
716 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
717 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
718 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
719 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
720 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
721 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
723 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
725 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
726 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
728 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
729 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
730 closure to the module.
732 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
734 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
736 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
738 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
740 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
742 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
744 Fix from Russ McManus:
745 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
746 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
747 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
748 either an optional or required value.
750 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
752 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
754 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
755 of the '() key, not `rest'.
757 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
758 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
759 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
760 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
762 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
764 * optargs.scm: New file.
765 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
766 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
768 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
770 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
771 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
772 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
774 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
776 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
777 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
780 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
782 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
784 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
786 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
787 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
788 applied to the module itself.
790 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
792 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
794 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
795 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
797 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
799 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
801 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
803 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
805 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
807 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
808 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
810 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
812 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
813 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
814 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
815 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
816 among BINDINGS is referenced.
817 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
818 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
820 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
822 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
823 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
825 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
827 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
828 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
831 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
833 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
835 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
837 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
839 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
841 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
842 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
843 adapt to the new hooks.
845 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
847 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
848 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
849 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
851 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
852 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
854 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
855 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
856 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
857 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
858 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
859 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
860 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
861 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
862 first to register linked modules.
864 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
865 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
866 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
868 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
869 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
870 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
871 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
873 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
875 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
878 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
879 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
880 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
882 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
884 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
885 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
886 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
888 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
890 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
891 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
892 result of the last form.
894 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
896 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
899 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
901 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
902 readline-set!: New options interface.
904 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
906 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
908 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
909 at the end of boot-9.scm.
911 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
913 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
914 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
916 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
918 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
920 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
922 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
923 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
925 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
927 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
929 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
931 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
934 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
936 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
937 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
939 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
941 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
943 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
944 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
945 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
947 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
948 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
950 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
951 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
952 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
954 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
955 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
956 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
957 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
958 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
959 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
961 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
963 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
964 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
966 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
968 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
969 and short vectors #h(...).
971 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
973 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
974 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
975 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
977 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
979 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
980 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
981 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
983 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
985 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
986 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
988 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
989 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
990 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
991 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
993 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
995 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
998 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
999 order to allow the empty list as arg.
1000 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
1001 context with traps enabled.
1003 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1005 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
1007 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
1009 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1011 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
1012 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
1013 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
1014 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
1015 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
1017 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1019 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
1020 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
1022 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1024 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
1026 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1028 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
1030 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1032 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
1034 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1036 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
1037 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
1039 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1041 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
1042 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
1043 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
1044 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
1047 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
1048 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
1049 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
1051 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1053 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
1054 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
1055 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
1056 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
1057 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
1058 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
1059 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1061 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1063 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
1065 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1067 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
1068 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
1069 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
1070 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
1071 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
1072 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
1074 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1076 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
1077 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
1078 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
1081 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1083 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
1085 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1087 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
1089 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1091 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
1094 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1096 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
1098 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1100 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
1101 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
1103 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1105 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
1106 similar in use to `use-modules'.
1107 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
1108 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
1110 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
1111 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
1113 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1115 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
1117 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1119 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
1120 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
1123 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
1124 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
1126 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
1127 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
1128 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
1130 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
1132 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1134 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
1136 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
1137 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
1139 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1141 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
1143 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1145 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
1146 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
1148 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
1150 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
1153 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
1155 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
1156 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
1158 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
1160 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
1162 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1164 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
1167 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1169 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
1170 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
1171 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
1172 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
1173 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
1176 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
1178 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
1179 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
1180 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
1182 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
1184 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
1186 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
1187 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
1189 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
1191 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
1192 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
1193 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
1194 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
1195 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
1196 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
1197 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
1200 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1202 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
1205 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
1207 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
1208 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
1209 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
1210 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
1211 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
1212 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
1214 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1216 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
1217 usefully so they will work from a script.
1219 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1221 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
1222 neighborhood of the record code.
1224 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1226 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
1227 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
1228 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
1229 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
1231 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1233 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
1234 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
1235 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1237 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1239 Add support for readline function.
1240 * readline.scm: New module.
1241 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
1242 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
1243 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
1245 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
1246 repl-reader to use them.
1247 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
1249 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
1251 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1253 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
1254 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
1256 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1258 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
1259 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
1260 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
1262 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1264 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
1265 #f, abort terminates the process.
1266 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
1267 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
1269 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1271 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
1272 print-state, throw it away.
1274 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
1276 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
1279 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
1281 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
1282 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
1283 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
1284 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
1286 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
1287 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
1289 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1291 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
1293 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1295 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
1296 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
1297 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
1298 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
1299 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
1301 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
1302 distribution and installation.
1303 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1305 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1307 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
1309 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1311 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
1312 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
1313 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
1315 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
1316 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
1319 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1321 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
1323 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
1325 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1327 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
1328 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
1329 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
1330 field a separate argument.
1332 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
1334 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1336 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
1338 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
1342 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1344 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
1346 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1348 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
1349 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
1350 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
1351 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
1352 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
1353 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
1355 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
1356 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
1357 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
1358 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
1359 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
1362 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1364 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!

1368 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
1369 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
1371 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1373 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
1375 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
1376 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
1377 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
1378 expansion inside the slib module.
1380 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
1382 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
1383 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.

1388 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
1390 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
1391 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
1392 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
1394 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
1395 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
1398 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
1400 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
1401 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
1403 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
1405 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
1406 (make-module): Modified initialization.
1407 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
1408 mutator for module-associated transformer.
1409 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
1410 `scm:eval-transformer'.
1411 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
1412 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current

1418 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
1420 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
1421 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
1422 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
1423 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
1424 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
1426 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
1427 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
1428 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
1430 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
1431 the syncase interface.
1433 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1435 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
1436 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
1437 workings of the current module system).
1439 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1441 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
1442 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

1447 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
1448 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
1449 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.

1453 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
1454 according to the following priorities:
1455 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
1456 2. bindings from the-scm-module
1458 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
1459 disabling the scheme interpreter.
1460 (new-interpreter): New function.
1462 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
1463 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
1464 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
1466 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1468 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1470 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1472 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

1476 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
1478 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
1480 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1482 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
1483 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
1486 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1488 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
1489 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
1490 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
1491 symbols matching regexp.
1493 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
1494 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
1497 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
1498 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
1499 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
1500 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
1501 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
1503 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
1504 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
1506 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1508 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.

1526 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
1528 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1530 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
1531 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.

1540 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
1541 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
1542 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
1544 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
1545 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
1548 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
1549 order to narrow it correctly.
1550 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

1557 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1559 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
1561 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1563 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
1564 builtin `with-fluids*'.
1566 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1568 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
1569 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
1570 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
1572 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1585 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1587 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
1588 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
1591 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
1593 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

1605 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
1606 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
1607 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
1608 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
1609 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
1611 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
1612 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
1613 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
1614 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
1616 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1618 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
1619 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
1620 sending in bug reports.
1621 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
1622 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
1623 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
1624 display a warning if the two are different.
1625 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
1626 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
1627 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1629 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1631 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
1633 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1635 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
1636 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
1638 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
1639 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
1640 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
1641 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
1642 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
1643 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
1646 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
1647 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
1650 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
1651 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
1653 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
1656 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
1659 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
1661 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
1664 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1666 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
1667 vtable and not the one of the struct.
1669 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1671 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
1672 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
1673 to support printing of structures.
1674 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
1675 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
1676 commented out printing code.
1677 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
1678 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
1680 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1682 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
1684 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1686 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
1687 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
1688 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
1689 during call to scm-style-repl.
1691 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1693 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
1694 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
1695 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
1696 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
1697 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
1699 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1701 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
1702 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
1705 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
1707 * regex.scm: New file.
1708 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
1709 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1711 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
1713 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
1714 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
1715 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
1716 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
1718 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1720 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
1723 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1725 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
1726 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
1727 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
1729 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1731 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
1732 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
1735 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1737 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
1739 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1741 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
1743 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1745 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
1746 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
1749 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1751 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
1752 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
1753 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
1755 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1757 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
1758 the Scheme code like code yet.
1759 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
1761 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1763 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
1764 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
1765 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
1767 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1769 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
1771 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
1774 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1776 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
1778 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1780 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
1782 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
1783 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
1784 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
1786 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1788 Get 'make dist' to work again.
1789 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
1790 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
1792 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
1794 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
1795 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1797 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
1799 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
1802 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1804 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
1806 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1808 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
1809 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
1811 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1813 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
1814 instead of in libguile.
1815 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
1816 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
1818 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1820 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
1822 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
1823 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
1825 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1827 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
1828 sockaddr:port): new functions.
1830 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1832 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
1833 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
1834 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
1835 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
1837 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1839 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
1840 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
1842 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1844 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
1846 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1848 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
1849 keywords and symbols.
1851 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1853 * slib.scm: update read usage.
1855 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
1856 Don't define read-sharp.
1858 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
1859 (read-sharp): removed.
1860 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
1861 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
1863 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1865 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
1867 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
1868 primitive procedure.)
1870 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
1871 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
1873 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1875 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
1877 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1879 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
1881 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1883 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
1885 * (exit): alias for quit.
1887 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1889 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
1890 return the quit args.
1891 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
1892 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
1893 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
1895 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
1897 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1899 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
1901 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
1902 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
1904 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
1905 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
1907 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
1908 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
1911 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1913 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
1915 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
1916 (add-hooks!): New macro.
1917 Change hooks to use these functions.
1919 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
1920 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
1921 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
1923 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
1924 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
1925 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
1926 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
1927 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
1928 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
1929 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
1932 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
1933 and exit-frame exceptions.
1935 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
1936 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
1937 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
1938 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
1939 result; otherwise display "> ".
1940 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
1942 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
1943 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
1944 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
1945 repository version runnable.
1947 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1949 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
1950 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
1951 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
1952 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
1953 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
1954 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
1956 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1958 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
1959 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
1961 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
1963 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
1964 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
1966 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1968 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
1970 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1972 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
1975 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1977 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
1978 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
1980 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1982 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
1985 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
1987 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
1988 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
1990 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1992 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
1994 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1995 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
1996 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
1997 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
1998 dynamic linking of modules.
1999 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
2000 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
2002 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2004 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
2006 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2008 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
2011 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
2012 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
2015 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2017 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
2018 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
2019 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
2021 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2023 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
2024 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
2027 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2029 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
2030 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
2031 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
2033 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2035 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
2036 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
2037 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
2038 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
2040 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
2041 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
2042 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
2043 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
2044 (such as the-scm-module).
2046 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2048 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
2051 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
2053 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
2054 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
2055 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
2057 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2059 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
2060 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
2061 function, use it accordingly.
2063 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2065 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
2066 function of no arguments.
2067 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
2068 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
2069 set-current-module): Uses changed.
2070 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
2071 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
2072 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
2073 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
2074 *top-level-eval-closure*.
2076 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2078 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
2079 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
2081 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2083 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
2084 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
2085 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
2086 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
2087 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
2089 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
2092 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
2093 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
2094 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
2095 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
2097 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
2099 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
2101 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
2102 If the user wants to see this, he can do
2103 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
2105 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
2108 Added `before-read-hook'.
2110 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
2112 (provide): New function.
2114 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
2117 (backtrace): New function.
2119 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
2120 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
2121 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
2122 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
2123 is found in operator position in a frame.
2125 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
2128 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
2129 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
2130 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
2132 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
2134 (library-vicinity): Updated.
2136 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
2138 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
2140 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2142 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
2144 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
2145 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
2147 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
2148 so they'll get distributed.
2150 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
2151 should see as little clutter as possible.
2152 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
2153 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
2154 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
2156 * r4rs.scm: New file.
2157 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
2158 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
2159 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
2160 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
2161 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
2162 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
2163 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
2164 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
2165 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
2167 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
2168 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
2170 * test.scm: New file.
2172 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
2173 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
2174 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
2176 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
2177 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
2179 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
2181 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
2182 call %load-announce.
2184 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2186 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
2187 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
2188 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
2190 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
2192 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2194 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
2195 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
2196 SCSH (which this isn't).
2198 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2200 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
2202 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2204 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
2205 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
2206 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
2208 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
2209 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
2210 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
2211 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
2214 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2216 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
2218 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
2220 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
2221 error-catching-loop.
2222 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
2223 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
2224 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
2226 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
2227 error-catching-loop.
2229 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2231 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
2232 (make-module): Rework for readability.
2233 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
2234 should be '(), not #f.
2236 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
2237 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
2239 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2241 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
2242 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
2245 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2247 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
2248 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
2249 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
2250 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
2252 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2254 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
2256 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2258 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
2260 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
2261 throw-handler-default.
2262 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
2264 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
2266 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
2267 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
2269 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2271 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
2272 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
2273 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
2274 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
2276 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2278 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
2279 Append "." to the default %load-path.
2280 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
2281 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
2283 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
2284 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
2285 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
2286 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
2289 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2291 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
2293 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
2296 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
2299 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
2301 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2303 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
2304 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
2306 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2308 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
2310 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
2312 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2314 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
2315 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
2316 Don't set up 'error as a key.
2317 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
2318 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
2320 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
2321 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
2322 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
2323 they seem redundant.
2324 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
2325 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
2326 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
2327 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
2328 directly files starting with "/").
2329 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
2330 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
2332 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
2334 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2336 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
2337 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
2338 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
2339 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
2340 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
2341 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
2342 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
2343 robust to just do it in the C code.
2345 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2347 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
2348 %try-load itself was the primitive.
2349 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
2350 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
2351 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
2353 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2355 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
2356 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
2357 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
2359 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2361 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
2362 system-error, not every kind of error.
2363 (scm-error): new procedure.
2365 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2367 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
2369 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2371 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
2372 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
2373 of args are supplied.
2374 (%%system-errors): removed.
2375 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
2376 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
2377 %%handle-system-error.
2378 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
2379 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
2380 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
2381 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
2383 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2385 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
2386 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
2387 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
2388 %S (embed an argument using "write").
2390 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2392 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
2393 the empty list if they are #f.
2394 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
2396 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2398 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
2400 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
2401 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
2402 aborting, just the key and subr.
2403 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
2404 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
2405 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
2407 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2409 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
2410 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
2411 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
2412 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
2413 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
2415 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2417 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
2418 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
2419 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
2420 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
2422 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2424 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
2425 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
2426 initialize %load-path.
2428 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
2429 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
2431 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
2433 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
2434 Add the directory named after the version number.
2435 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
2436 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
2437 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
2438 sitedatadir): New definitions.
2439 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
2440 (install): Create the above directories.
2441 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
2442 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
2444 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2446 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
2447 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
2448 in the Makefile directly.
2449 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
2451 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
2453 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
2454 here, where people expect to find them.
2456 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2458 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
2459 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
2461 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
2463 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2465 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
2466 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
2468 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
2470 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
2471 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
2473 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
2474 weak-key-hash-table.
2476 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2478 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
2479 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
2480 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
2481 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
2482 (%open-file): removed.
2483 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
2484 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
2486 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2488 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
2489 (manifest): Deleted.
2490 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
2491 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
2493 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2495 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
2496 now that they throw errors directly.
2497 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
2498 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
2500 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2502 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
2504 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
2506 * The more things change...
