508 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
509 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a

517 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.

634 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
636 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
637 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
638 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
640 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
642 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
643 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
645 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

655 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
657 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
658 last-command fluid is not yet set.
660 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
662 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
664 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
665 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
666 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
668 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
670 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
671 handle :use-syntax correctly.
673 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
675 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
678 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
680 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
681 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.

683 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
684 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
686 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

690 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
692 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
694 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
695 primitives. Thanks Neil!
697 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
699 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
700 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
701 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
702 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
704 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
705 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
706 since there aren't definitions for them.
708 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
709 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
711 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
713 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
714 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
716 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
718 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
719 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
721 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
723 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
724 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
725 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
727 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
729 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
731 * tags.scm: Removed file.
733 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
735 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
736 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
738 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
739 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
740 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
743 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
745 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
746 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
748 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
750 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
751 Don't reset trace-level to 0.

769 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
771 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
772 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
774 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
777 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
778 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
779 No longer require `pretty-print'.
781 (slib:error): Delete.
782 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
784 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
789 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
793 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
795 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
796 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
797 rdelim) module. See below.
799 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
801 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
802 include-deprecated-features is true.
804 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
806 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
809 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
810 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
811 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
813 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
814 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
815 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
818 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
820 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
821 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
822 variable, not just a visible one.
823 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
824 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
825 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
826 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
827 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
828 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
830 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
832 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
833 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
835 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
837 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
838 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
840 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
842 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
844 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
846 Added exception notice to all files.
848 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
849 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
850 importing bindings once in a while.
852 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
854 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
855 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
856 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
857 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
858 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
859 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
860 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
861 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
863 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
864 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
866 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
868 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
869 fix command so that it works.
871 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
872 to access unbound variables.
874 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
875 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
876 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
877 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
878 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
880 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
882 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
883 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
884 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
885 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
886 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
887 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
888 argument for process-define-module.
889 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
890 arguments for process-use-modules.

895 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
896 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
897 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
900 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
901 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
902 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
904 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.

921 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
923 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
925 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
926 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!

931 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
933 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
934 * match.scm: Likewise.
935 * expect.scm: Likewise.
936 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
938 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
940 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
942 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
944 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
945 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
946 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
947 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
948 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
949 element list when adding "." to it.
950 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
951 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
953 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
955 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
957 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
958 now accepts arg; update callers.
959 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
960 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
962 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
963 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
964 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
965 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
966 `search-documentation-files'.
967 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
968 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
969 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
971 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
972 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
974 (find-documentation): Delete.
975 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
976 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.
978 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
980 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
981 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.

995 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
997 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
999 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
1000 the magical undefined value.

1002 the default default for bindings.
1004 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to

1006 (root-module-closure): Removed.
1007 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1008 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
1009 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
1010 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1011 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
1012 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
1013 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
1014 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1015 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1016 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1017 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1018 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1019 `set-current-module' call.
1020 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1021 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

1061 (process-use-modules): Arg is now `module-interface-specs',
1062 which is passed through to `resolve-interface' as before; nfc.
1063 (named-module-use!, top-repl): Abstraction maintenance: Use
1066 2001-05-06 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>

1251 buffered input procedure. Does not assume that a newline
1252 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
1254 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
1255 make-buffered-input-port.
1257 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1259 * match.scm: Don't export defstruct. Use (unquote defstruct) instead.
1261 2001-03-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1293 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added stack-catch.scm.
1295 2001-03-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

1312 2001-02-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1314 * boot-9.scm (eval-when, eval-case): Renamed `eval-when' to
1315 `eval-case', everywhere.
1317 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1319 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
1320 `interaction-evironment'.
1321 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
1323 (eval-when): New macro.
1324 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
1325 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
1326 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
1328 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the
1330 (define-module): Simply call `process-define-module' without any
1331 fuss (but only on top-level).
1332 (named-module-use!): New function.

1352 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to
1353 `and-let-star.scm'. Updated module name as well.
1354 * and-let-star-compat.scm: New file, installed as `and-let*.scm'.
1355 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced "and-let*.scm" with
1357 (install-data-local): Install "and-let-star-compat.scm" as
1358 "and-let*.scm", ignoring errors.
1359 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute `and-let-star-compat.scm'.
1361 2001-01-26 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1363 This patch fixes a problem reported by Martin Grabmueller about
1364 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
1366 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to

1369 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
1370 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
1372 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>

1387 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
1388 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
1390 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1392 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1393 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1394 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1395 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1396 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1397 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1398 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1400 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1402 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1403 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1405 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1407 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1410 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1412 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1415 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1417 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1419 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1421 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1422 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1423 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1424 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1425 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
1426 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,

1428 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
1429 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
1430 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1431 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1432 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1433 make-shared-substring.
1435 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1437 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1438 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1439 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1440 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1443 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1445 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1446 and open-output-pipe.
1448 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1450 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1451 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1452 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1453 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1454 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1455 Pirotte for the bug report).
1456 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1457 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1459 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1461 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1471 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
1474 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1476 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
1479 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1481 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1482 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1483 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1485 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1486 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1487 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1488 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1489 actual documentation entries themselves.
1491 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1493 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1495 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1497 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
1499 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1507 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
1509 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
1511 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
1513 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1515 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1517 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1519 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1521 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1523 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1524 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1525 even worked... /mdj.
1526 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1528 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1531 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1554 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1556 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1557 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1558 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1559 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1560 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1562 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1564 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1566 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1567 provided by libguile/modules.c.)

1573 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.

1590 definition of module-type.

1618 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1621 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1623 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1625 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1651 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1653 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1655 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1656 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1658 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1660 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1661 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1663 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1665 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.

1695 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1696 (write-all): Removed.

1698 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1700 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1702 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1703 `proc-documentation'
1705 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1706 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1707 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1708 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1709 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1710 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1711 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive

1727 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1728 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1729 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1730 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1731 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1732 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1733 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1735 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1737 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1738 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1740 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1742 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1743 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1745 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1747 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1748 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1749 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1750 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1751 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1752 delete-if! when iterating.
1754 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1756 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1758 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1760 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1762 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1764 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1765 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1766 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1767 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1769 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1771 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1772 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1774 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1776 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1777 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1778 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1779 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1781 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1783 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1784 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1786 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1788 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1789 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1791 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1793 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1796 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1798 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1799 source of the numerous very short changes.
1801 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1803 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1806 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1809 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1811 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1814 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1816 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1817 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1819 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1821 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1824 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1826 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1827 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1828 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1830 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1832 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1833 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1834 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1835 Narazaki for this change.
1837 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1839 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1840 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1843 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1844 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1846 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1848 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1849 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1851 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1853 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1854 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1855 use define-public to export from the module.
1857 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1859 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1860 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1861 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1863 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1865 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1867 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1869 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1870 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1872 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1874 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1876 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1878 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1880 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1882 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1883 long_long uniform vectors.
1885 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1887 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1888 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1890 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1892 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1893 script to create generated files like this one.
1895 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1897 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1898 available before using getpw and getuid.
1899 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1900 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1902 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1903 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1904 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1906 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1907 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1908 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1910 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1911 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1913 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1915 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1917 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1918 than 'exit-debugger.
1920 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1921 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1923 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1925 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1927 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1928 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1929 ("position"): New command.
1930 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1931 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1932 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1933 to return a valid state.)
1934 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1936 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1938 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1939 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1942 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1944 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1945 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1947 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1949 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1951 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1953 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1954 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1956 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1957 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1958 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1960 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1963 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1965 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1966 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1968 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1970 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1972 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1973 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1974 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1975 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1977 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1980 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1981 both forward and backward views of the stack
1982 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1983 Use selector `frame-number';
1984 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1985 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1987 Use readline conditionally.
1989 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1991 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1992 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1993 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1995 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1996 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1999 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2001 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2003 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2005 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2007 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2009 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2011 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2012 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2013 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2014 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2015 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2016 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2017 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2018 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2019 libguile-config-stamp.
2020 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2021 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2022 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2023 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2024 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2026 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2028 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2029 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2030 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2032 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2033 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2034 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2035 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2038 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2040 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2042 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2044 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2046 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2047 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2049 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2051 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2052 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2053 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2054 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2055 objects starting with '#/'.
2057 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2059 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2060 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2061 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2062 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2063 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2064 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2066 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2067 module-modified): New procedures.
2068 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2069 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2071 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2073 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2076 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2078 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2079 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2080 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2082 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2085 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2087 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2088 at multiple calls to read.
2089 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2090 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2091 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2092 continued-lines prompt.
2094 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2095 reading expressions.
2097 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2099 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2100 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2102 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2104 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2105 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2108 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2110 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2111 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2113 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2114 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2115 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2116 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2117 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2120 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2122 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2123 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2125 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2127 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2128 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2129 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2130 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2132 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2134 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2136 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2137 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2138 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2141 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2143 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2144 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2145 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2146 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2147 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2148 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2149 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2150 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2151 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2152 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2153 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2155 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2157 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2158 peeked from the stream.
2159 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2160 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2161 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2163 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2165 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2166 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2168 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2170 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2171 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2172 exiting repl with single control-D.
2174 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2176 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2177 error catching loop after quit received.
2178 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2180 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2181 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2182 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2184 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2185 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2187 * popen.scm: new file.
2189 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2191 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2192 (reverse-iota): removed.
2194 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2196 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2197 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2199 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2201 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2202 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2203 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2204 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2205 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2207 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2209 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2211 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2212 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2214 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2215 Guile's module system.
2217 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2219 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2220 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2221 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2222 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2223 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2224 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2226 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2227 '() when the condition is false.
2229 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2231 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2233 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2235 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2237 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2239 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2240 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2241 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2243 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2245 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2246 argument order for hash-fold.
2248 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2250 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2252 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2253 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2255 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2256 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2257 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2258 has been added to the load path).
2260 Use try-load-module.
2262 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2264 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2265 module between system and user state.
2267 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2269 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2271 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2274 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2276 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2277 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2278 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2280 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2282 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2283 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2284 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2285 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2286 stack frame encountered.
2288 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2289 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2290 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2291 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2294 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2295 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2296 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2297 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2300 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2301 define-module switches:
2303 (define-module (foo)
2306 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2309 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2310 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2311 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2312 module it is a system frame.
2314 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2315 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2316 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2317 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2318 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2320 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2321 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2322 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2323 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2324 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2325 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2327 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2328 status of a module.;
2329 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2330 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2332 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2333 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2334 closure to the module.
2336 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2338 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2340 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2342 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2344 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2346 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2348 Fix from Russ McManus:
2349 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2350 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2351 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2352 either an optional or required value.
2354 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2356 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2358 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2359 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2361 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2362 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2363 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2364 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2366 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2368 * optargs.scm: New file.
2369 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2370 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2372 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2374 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2375 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2376 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2378 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2380 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2381 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2384 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2386 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2388 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2390 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2391 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2392 applied to the module itself.
2394 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2396 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2398 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2399 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2401 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2403 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2405 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2407 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2409 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2411 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2412 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2414 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2416 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2417 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2418 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2419 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2420 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2421 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2422 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2424 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2426 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2427 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2429 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2431 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2432 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2435 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2437 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2439 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2441 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2443 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2445 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2446 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2447 adapt to the new hooks.
2449 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2451 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2452 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2453 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2455 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2456 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2458 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2459 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2460 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2461 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2462 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2463 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2464 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2465 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2466 first to register linked modules.
2468 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2469 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2470 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2472 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2473 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2474 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2475 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2477 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2479 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2482 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2483 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2484 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2486 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2488 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2489 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2490 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2492 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2494 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2495 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2496 result of the last form.
2498 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2500 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2503 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2505 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2506 readline-set!: New options interface.
2508 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2510 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2512 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2513 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2515 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2517 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2518 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2520 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2522 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2523 interactive session.
2524 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2526 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2527 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2529 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2531 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2533 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2535 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2536 read line was empty.
2538 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2540 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2541 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2543 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2545 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2547 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2548 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2549 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2551 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2552 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2554 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2555 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2556 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2558 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2559 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2560 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2561 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2562 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2563 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2565 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2567 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2568 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2570 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2572 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2573 and short vectors #h(...).
2575 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2577 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2578 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2579 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2581 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2583 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2584 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2585 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2587 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2589 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2590 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2592 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2593 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2594 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2595 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2597 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2599 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2602 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2603 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2604 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2605 context with traps enabled.
2607 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2609 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2611 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2613 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2615 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2616 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2617 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2618 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2619 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2621 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2623 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2624 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2626 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2628 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2630 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2632 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2634 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2636 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2638 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2640 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2641 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2643 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2645 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2646 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2647 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2648 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2651 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2652 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2653 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2655 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2657 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2658 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2659 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2660 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2661 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2662 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2663 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2665 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2667 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2669 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2671 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2672 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2673 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2674 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2675 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2676 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2678 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2680 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2681 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2682 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2685 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2687 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2689 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2691 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2693 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2695 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2698 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2700 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2702 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2704 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2705 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2707 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2709 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2710 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2711 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2712 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2714 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2715 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2717 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2719 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2721 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2723 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2724 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2727 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2728 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2730 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2731 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2732 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2734 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2736 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2738 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2740 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2741 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2743 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2745 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2747 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2749 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2750 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2752 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2754 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2757 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2759 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2760 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2762 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2764 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2766 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2768 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2771 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2773 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2774 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2775 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2776 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2777 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2780 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2782 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2783 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2784 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2786 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2788 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2790 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2791 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2793 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2795 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2796 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2797 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2798 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2799 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2800 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2801 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2804 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2806 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2809 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2811 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2812 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2813 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2814 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2815 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2816 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2818 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2820 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2821 usefully so they will work from a script.
2823 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2825 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2826 neighborhood of the record code.
2828 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2830 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2831 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2832 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2833 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2835 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2837 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2838 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2839 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2841 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2843 Add support for readline function.
2844 * readline.scm: New module.
2845 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2846 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2847 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2849 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2850 repl-reader to use them.
2851 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2853 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2855 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2857 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2858 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.

2862 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2863 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2864 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2866 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2868 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2869 #f, abort terminates the process.
2870 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2871 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2873 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2875 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2876 print-state, throw it away.
2878 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2880 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2883 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2885 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2886 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2887 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2888 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2890 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2891 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2893 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2895 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2897 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2899 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2900 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2901 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2902 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2903 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2905 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2906 distribution and installation.
2907 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2909 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2911 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2913 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2915 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2916 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2917 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2919 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2920 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2923 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2925 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2927 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2929 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2931 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2932 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2933 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2934 field a separate argument.
2936 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2938 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2940 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2942 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty

2952 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
2953 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2954 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2955 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2956 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2957 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2959 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2960 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2961 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2962 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2963 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically

2977 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2979 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2980 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2981 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2982 expansion inside the slib module.
2984 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2986 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
2987 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.

2995 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2996 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2998 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2999 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3002 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3004 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3005 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3007 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3009 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.

3022 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3024 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3025 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3026 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3027 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3028 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3030 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3031 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3032 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3034 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3035 the syncase interface.
3037 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3039 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3040 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3041 workings of the current module system).
3043 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3045 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3046 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

3057 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3058 according to the following priorities:
3059 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3060 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3062 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3063 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3064 (new-interpreter): New function.
3066 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3067 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3068 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3070 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3072 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3074 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3076 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

3084 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3086 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3087 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

3092 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3093 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.

3098 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3101 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3102 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3103 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
3104 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
3105 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3107 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,

3146 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3148 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3149 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at

3172 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3173 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3174 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.

3211 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3212 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3213 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3215 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3216 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3217 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3218 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3220 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3222 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3223 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3224 sending in bug reports.
3225 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3226 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3227 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3228 display a warning if the two are different.
3229 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3230 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.

3244 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3245 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3246 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3247 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3250 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3251 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3254 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3255 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3257 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated

3277 to support printing of structures.
3278 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3279 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3280 commented out printing code.
3281 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.

3293 during call to scm-style-repl.
3295 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3297 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3298 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3299 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3300 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3301 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3303 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3305 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3306 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3309 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3311 * regex.scm: New file.
3312 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3313 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3315 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3317 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3318 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3319 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3320 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3322 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3324 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3327 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3329 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3330 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3331 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3333 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3335 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3336 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3339 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3341 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3343 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3345 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3347 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3349 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3350 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3353 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3355 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3356 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3357 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3359 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3361 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3362 the Scheme code like code yet.
3363 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3365 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3367 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3368 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3369 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3371 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3373 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3375 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3378 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3380 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3382 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3384 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3386 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3387 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3388 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3390 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3392 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3393 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3394 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3396 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3398 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3399 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3401 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3403 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3406 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3408 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3410 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3412 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3413 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3415 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3417 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3418 instead of in libguile.
3419 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3420 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3422 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3424 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3426 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3427 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3429 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3431 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3432 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3434 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3436 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3437 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3438 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3439 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3441 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3443 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3444 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3446 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3448 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3450 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3452 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3453 keywords and symbols.
3455 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3457 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3459 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3460 Don't define read-sharp.
3462 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3463 (read-sharp): removed.
3464 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3465 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3467 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3469 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3471 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3472 primitive procedure.)
3474 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3475 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3477 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3479 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3481 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3483 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3485 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3487 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3489 * (exit): alias for quit.
3491 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3493 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3494 return the quit args.
3495 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3496 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3497 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3499 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3501 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3503 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3505 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3506 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3508 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3509 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3511 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3512 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3515 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3517 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3519 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3520 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3521 Change hooks to use these functions.
3523 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3524 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3525 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3527 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3528 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3529 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3530 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3531 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3532 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3533 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3536 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3537 and exit-frame exceptions.
3539 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3540 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3541 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3542 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3543 result; otherwise display "> ".
3544 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3546 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3547 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3548 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3549 repository version runnable.
3551 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3553 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3554 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3555 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3556 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3557 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3558 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3560 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3562 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3563 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3565 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3567 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3568 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3570 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3572 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3574 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3576 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3579 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3581 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3582 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3584 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3586 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3589 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3591 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3592 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3594 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3596 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3598 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3599 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3600 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3601 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3602 dynamic linking of modules.
3603 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3604 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3606 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3608 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3610 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3612 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3615 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3616 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3619 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3621 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3622 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3623 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3625 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3627 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3628 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3631 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3633 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3634 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3635 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3637 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3639 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3640 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3641 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3642 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3644 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3645 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3646 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3647 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3648 (such as the-scm-module).
3650 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3652 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3655 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3657 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3658 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3659 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3661 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3663 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3664 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3665 function, use it accordingly.
3667 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3669 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3670 function of no arguments.
3671 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3672 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3673 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3674 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3675 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3676 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3677 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3678 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3680 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3682 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3683 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3685 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3687 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3688 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3689 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3690 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3691 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3693 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3696 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3697 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3698 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3699 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3701 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3703 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3705 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3706 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3707 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3709 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3712 Added `before-read-hook'.
3714 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3716 (provide): New function.
3718 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3721 (backtrace): New function.
3723 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3724 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3725 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3726 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3727 is found in operator position in a frame.
3729 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3732 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3733 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3734 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3736 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3738 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3740 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3742 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3744 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3746 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3748 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3749 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3751 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3752 so they'll get distributed.
3754 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3755 should see as little clutter as possible.
3756 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3757 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3758 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3760 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3761 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3762 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3763 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3764 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3765 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3766 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3767 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3768 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3769 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3771 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3772 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3774 * test.scm: New file.
3776 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3777 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3778 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3780 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3781 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3783 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3785 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3786 call %load-announce.
3788 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3790 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3791 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3792 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3794 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3796 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3798 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3799 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3800 SCSH (which this isn't).
3802 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3804 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3806 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3808 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3809 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3810 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3812 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3813 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3814 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3815 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3818 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3820 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3822 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3824 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3825 error-catching-loop.
3826 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3827 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3828 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3830 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3831 error-catching-loop.
3833 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3835 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3836 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3837 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3838 should be '(), not #f.
3840 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3841 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3843 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3845 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3846 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3849 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3851 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3852 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3853 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3854 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3856 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3858 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3860 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3862 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3864 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3865 throw-handler-default.
3866 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3868 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3870 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3871 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3873 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3875 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3876 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3877 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3878 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3880 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3882 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3883 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3884 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3885 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3887 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3888 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3889 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3890 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3893 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3895 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3897 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3900 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3903 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3905 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3907 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3908 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3910 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3912 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3914 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3916 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3918 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3919 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3920 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3921 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3922 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3924 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3925 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3926 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3927 they seem redundant.
3928 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3929 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3930 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3931 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3932 directly files starting with "/").
3933 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3934 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3936 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3938 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3940 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3941 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3942 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3943 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3944 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3945 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3946 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3947 robust to just do it in the C code.
3949 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3951 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3952 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3953 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3954 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3955 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3957 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3959 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3960 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3961 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3963 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3965 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3966 system-error, not every kind of error.
3967 (scm-error): new procedure.
3969 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3971 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3973 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3975 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3976 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3977 of args are supplied.
3978 (%%system-errors): removed.
3979 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3980 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3981 %%handle-system-error.
3982 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3983 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3984 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3985 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3987 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3989 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3990 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3991 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3992 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3994 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3996 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3997 the empty list if they are #f.
3998 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4000 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4002 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4004 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4005 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4006 aborting, just the key and subr.
4007 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4008 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4009 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4011 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4013 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4014 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4015 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4016 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4017 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4019 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4021 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4022 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4023 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4024 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4026 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4028 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4029 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4030 initialize %load-path.
4032 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4033 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4035 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4037 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4038 Add the directory named after the version number.
4039 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4040 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4041 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4042 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4043 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4044 (install): Create the above directories.
4045 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4046 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4048 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4050 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4051 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4052 in the Makefile directly.
4053 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4055 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4057 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4058 here, where people expect to find them.
4060 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4062 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4063 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4065 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4067 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4069 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
4070 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4072 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4074 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
4075 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
4077 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
4078 weak-key-hash-table.
4080 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4082 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
4083 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
4084 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
4085 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
4086 (%open-file): removed.
4087 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
4088 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
4090 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4092 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
4093 (manifest): Deleted.
4094 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
4095 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
4097 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4099 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
4100 now that they throw errors directly.
4101 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
4102 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
4104 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4106 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
4108 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
4110 * The more things change...
