35 2003-10-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
37 * poe.scm (funcq-assoc): Rewrite, don't assume '() is false, and
38 actually traverse the given alist.
40 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
42 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
46 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

86 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
87 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
88 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
89 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
90 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
92 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
94 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
95 the obarray, not an empty vector.

104 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
106 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
107 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
109 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
111 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
112 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
113 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
115 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
116 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
118 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>

139 instead of substring-move-left! or substring-move-right!. Thanks
142 * deprecated.scm (substring-move-left!, substring-move-right!):
145 * boot-9.scm (display-usage-report): Use keyword->symbol instead
146 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.

149 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
151 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
152 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
154 2003-04-25 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kvast.blakulla.net>

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

609 2002-04-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>
611 * gap-buffer.scm: New file.
613 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add gap-buffer.scm.
615 2002-03-12 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
617 * syncase.scm: fix bad let.
618 (gensym): fix failure on non-threaded
620 2002-03-05 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

628 * Makefile.am: Update path to pre-inst-guile automake frag.
630 * boot-9.scm: Comment grammar fixes; nfc.
631 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
633 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
635 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
636 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
637 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
639 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
641 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>
643 * regex.scm: Add commentary; nfc.
645 2002-02-05 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

649 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
651 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
653 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
654 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
655 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
656 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
658 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
660 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
662 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
663 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
664 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
666 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
668 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have
671 2001-11-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
673 * boot-9.scm (turn-on-debugging): New function, to be used by
674 scm_compile_shell_switches.
676 * debug.scm: Do not enable debugging and recording of source
679 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
681 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
682 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
683 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
685 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
686 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

690 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
691 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
692 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
693 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
696 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
698 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
701 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
703 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
704 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
705 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
706 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
708 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
710 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
711 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
712 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
715 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
717 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
719 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>
721 * expect.scm: Commentary fix; nfc.
723 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): Fix typo.
725 2001-09-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
727 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Reference compile-psyntax.scm in
728 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
730 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
732 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
733 the `arglist' procedure property.
734 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
735 present a more detailed argument list.
737 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
739 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
741 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
742 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
745 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
747 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
749 (feature?): Deprecated.
751 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,
752 eval-in-module, split-c-module-name,

758 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
760 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
761 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
763 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated
766 * format.scm: Remove deprecated definition of format that was
767 needed to trick export.
769 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
771 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
773 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
775 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
777 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
779 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
781 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
782 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
783 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
785 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
787 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
788 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
790 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
792 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
794 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
796 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
800 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
802 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
803 last-command fluid is not yet set.
805 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
807 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
809 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
810 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
811 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
813 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
815 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
816 handle :use-syntax correctly.
818 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
820 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
823 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
825 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
826 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
827 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
828 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
829 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
831 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
833 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
834 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
835 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
837 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
839 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
840 primitives. Thanks Neil!
842 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
844 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
845 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
846 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
847 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
849 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
850 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
851 since there aren't definitions for them.
853 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
854 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
856 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
858 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
859 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
861 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
863 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
864 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
866 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
868 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
869 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
870 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
872 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
874 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
876 * tags.scm: Removed file.
878 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
880 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
881 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
883 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
884 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
885 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
888 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
890 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
891 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
893 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
895 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
896 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
898 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
899 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
900 evaluator trap options.)

904 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
906 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
908 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
910 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
912 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
914 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
916 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
917 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
919 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
922 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
923 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
924 No longer require `pretty-print'.
926 (slib:error): Delete.
927 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
929 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
934 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
938 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
940 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
941 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
942 rdelim) module. See below.
944 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
946 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
947 include-deprecated-features is true.
949 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
951 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
954 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
955 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
956 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
958 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
959 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
960 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
963 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
965 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
966 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
967 variable, not just a visible one.
968 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
969 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
970 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
971 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
972 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
973 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
975 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
977 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
978 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
980 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
982 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
983 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
985 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
987 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
989 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
991 Added exception notice to all files.
993 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
994 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
995 importing bindings once in a while.
997 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
999 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
1000 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
1001 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1002 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
1003 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
1004 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
1005 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
1006 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
1008 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
1009 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
1011 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1013 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
1014 fix command so that it works.
1016 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
1017 to access unbound variables.
1019 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
1020 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
1021 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
1022 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
1023 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
1025 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1027 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
1028 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
1029 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
1030 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
1031 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
1032 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
1033 argument for process-define-module.
1034 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
1035 arguments for process-use-modules.
1036 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
1038 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1040 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
1041 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
1042 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
1045 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
1046 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
1047 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
1049 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
1051 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1053 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules
1055 (cond-expand): Use feature information associated with modules.

1064 * boot-9.scm (define-module): Return the new module.
1065 (process-define-module): Use `spec' instead of `module-name' when
1066 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1068 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1070 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
1071 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
1073 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
1076 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1078 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
1079 * match.scm: Likewise.
1080 * expect.scm: Likewise.
1081 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
1083 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
1085 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
1087 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
1089 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
1090 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
1091 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
1092 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
1093 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
1094 element list when adding "." to it.
1095 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
1096 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
1098 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1100 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
1102 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
1103 now accepts arg; update callers.
1104 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
1105 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
1107 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
1108 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
1109 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
1110 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
1111 `search-documentation-files'.
1112 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
1113 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
1114 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
1116 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
1117 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
1119 (find-documentation): Delete.
1120 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
1121 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.
1123 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1125 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
1126 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.
1127 (use-srfis): New procedure.
1129 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1131 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if
1132 used module's public interface is not available.
1133 No longer call `beautify-user-module!'.
1134 Signal error now also if selected binding not found.
1136 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1138 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
1140 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
1142 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
1144 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
1145 the magical undefined value.
1146 (let-o-k-template): Use `#f' instead of the undefined value as
1147 the default default for bindings.
1149 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to
1150 make-undefined-variable, use `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1151 (root-module-closure): Removed.
1152 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1153 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
1154 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
1155 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1156 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
1157 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
1158 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
1159 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1160 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1161 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1162 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1163 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1164 `set-current-module' call.
1165 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1166 set-current-module. It is redefined later.
1168 * debug.scm: Use `module-set!' instead of `variable-set!' to set

1399 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
1400 make-buffered-input-port.
1402 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

1466 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit

1537 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1538 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1539 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1540 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1541 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1542 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1543 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1545 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1547 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only

1550 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1552 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1555 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1557 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1560 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1562 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1564 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1566 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1567 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1568 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1569 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1570 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,

1575 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1576 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,

1582 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1583 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1584 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1585 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1588 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1590 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1591 and open-output-pipe.
1593 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1595 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1596 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1597 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1598 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1599 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1600 Pirotte for the bug report).
1601 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1602 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1604 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1606 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1624 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1626 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1627 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1628 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1630 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1631 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1632 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1633 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1634 actual documentation entries themselves.
1636 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1644 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1650 getter-and-setter-syntax,
1651 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
1652 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)

1658 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1660 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1662 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1664 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1666 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1668 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1669 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1670 even worked... /mdj.
1671 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1673 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1676 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1699 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1701 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1702 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1703 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1704 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1705 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1707 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1709 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1729 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1730 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1732 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1734 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1735 definition of module-type.
1737 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1739 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1741 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1743 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1744 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1746 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1748 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1750 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1752 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1753 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1754 Mikael for the suggestion.
1756 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1758 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1759 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1761 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1763 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1766 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1768 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1770 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1772 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1773 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1776 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1777 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1780 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1782 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1783 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1785 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1786 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1787 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1789 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1791 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1793 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1795 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1796 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1798 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1800 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1801 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1803 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1805 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1806 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1808 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1810 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1812 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1814 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1816 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1818 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1820 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1821 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1823 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1825 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1828 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1829 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1830 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1831 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1834 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1836 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1838 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1840 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1841 (write-all): Removed.
1842 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1843 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1845 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1847 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1848 `proc-documentation'
1850 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1851 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1852 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1853 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1854 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1855 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1856 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1859 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1861 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1863 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1865 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1866 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1867 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1870 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1872 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1873 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1874 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1875 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1876 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1877 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1878 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1880 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1882 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1883 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1885 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1887 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1888 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1890 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1892 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1893 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1894 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1895 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1896 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1897 delete-if! when iterating.
1899 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1901 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1903 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1905 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1907 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1909 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1910 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1911 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1912 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1914 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1916 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1917 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1919 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1921 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1922 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1923 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1924 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1926 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1928 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1929 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1931 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1933 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1934 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1936 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1938 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1941 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1943 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1944 source of the numerous very short changes.
1946 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1948 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1951 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1954 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1956 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1959 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1961 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1962 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1964 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1966 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1969 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1971 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1972 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1973 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1975 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1977 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1978 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1979 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1980 Narazaki for this change.
1982 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1984 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1985 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1988 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1989 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1991 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1993 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1994 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1996 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1998 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1999 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
2000 use define-public to export from the module.
2002 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2004 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
2005 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
2006 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
2008 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2010 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
2012 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2014 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
2015 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
2017 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2019 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
2021 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
2023 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
2025 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2027 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
2028 long_long uniform vectors.
2030 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2032 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
2033 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
2035 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2037 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
2038 script to create generated files like this one.
2040 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2042 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2043 available before using getpw and getuid.
2044 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2045 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2047 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2048 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2049 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2051 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2052 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2053 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2055 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2056 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2058 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2060 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2062 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2063 than 'exit-debugger.
2065 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2066 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2068 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
2070 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2072 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
2073 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
2074 ("position"): New command.
2075 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2076 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
2077 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
2078 to return a valid state.)
2079 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
2081 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2083 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
2084 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
2087 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2089 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2090 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2092 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2094 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2096 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2098 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2099 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2101 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2102 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2103 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2105 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2108 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2110 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2111 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2113 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2115 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2117 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2118 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2119 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2120 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2122 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2125 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2126 both forward and backward views of the stack
2127 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2128 Use selector `frame-number';
2129 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2130 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2132 Use readline conditionally.
2134 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2136 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2137 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2138 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2140 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2141 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2144 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2146 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2148 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2150 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2152 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2154 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2156 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2157 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2158 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2159 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2160 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2161 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2162 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2163 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2164 libguile-config-stamp.
2165 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2166 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2167 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2168 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2169 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2171 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2173 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2174 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2175 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2177 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2178 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2179 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2180 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2183 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2185 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2187 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2189 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2191 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2192 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2194 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2196 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2197 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2198 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2199 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2200 objects starting with '#/'.
2202 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2204 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2205 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2206 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2207 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2208 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2209 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2211 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2212 module-modified): New procedures.
2213 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2214 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2216 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2218 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2221 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2223 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2224 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2225 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2227 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2230 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2232 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2233 at multiple calls to read.
2234 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2235 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2236 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2237 continued-lines prompt.
2239 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2240 reading expressions.
2242 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2244 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2245 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2247 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2249 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2250 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2253 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2255 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2256 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2258 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2259 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2260 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2261 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2262 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2265 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2267 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2268 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2270 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2272 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2273 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2274 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2275 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2277 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2279 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2281 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2282 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2283 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2286 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2288 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2289 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2290 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2291 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2292 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2293 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2294 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2295 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2296 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2297 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2298 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2300 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2302 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2303 peeked from the stream.
2304 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2305 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2306 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2308 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2310 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2311 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2313 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2315 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2316 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2317 exiting repl with single control-D.
2319 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2321 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2322 error catching loop after quit received.
2323 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2325 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2326 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2327 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2329 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2330 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2332 * popen.scm: new file.
2334 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2336 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2337 (reverse-iota): removed.
2339 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2341 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2342 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2344 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2346 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2347 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2348 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2349 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2350 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2352 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2354 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2356 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2357 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2359 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2360 Guile's module system.
2362 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2364 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2365 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2366 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2367 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2368 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2369 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2371 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2372 '() when the condition is false.
2374 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2376 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2378 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2380 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2382 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2384 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2385 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2386 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2388 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2390 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2391 argument order for hash-fold.
2393 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2395 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2397 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2398 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2400 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2401 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2402 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2403 has been added to the load path).
2405 Use try-load-module.
2407 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2409 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2410 module between system and user state.
2412 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2414 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2416 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2419 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2421 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2422 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2423 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2425 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2427 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2428 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2429 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2430 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2431 stack frame encountered.
2433 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2434 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2435 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2436 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2439 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2440 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2441 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2442 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2445 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2446 define-module switches:
2448 (define-module (foo)
2451 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2454 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2455 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2456 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2457 module it is a system frame.
2459 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2460 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2461 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2462 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2463 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2465 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2466 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2467 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2468 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2469 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2470 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2472 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2473 status of a module.;
2474 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2475 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2477 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2478 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2479 closure to the module.
2481 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2483 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2485 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2487 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2489 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2491 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2493 Fix from Russ McManus:
2494 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2495 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2496 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2497 either an optional or required value.
2499 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2501 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2503 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2504 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2506 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2507 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2508 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2509 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2511 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2513 * optargs.scm: New file.
2514 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2515 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2517 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2519 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2520 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2521 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2523 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2525 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2526 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2529 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2531 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2533 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2535 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2536 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2537 applied to the module itself.
2539 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2541 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2543 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2544 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2546 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2548 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2550 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2552 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2554 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2556 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2557 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2559 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2561 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2562 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2563 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2564 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2565 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2566 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2567 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2569 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2571 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2572 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2574 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2576 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2577 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2580 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2582 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2584 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2586 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2588 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2590 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2591 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2592 adapt to the new hooks.
2594 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2596 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2597 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2598 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2600 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2601 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2603 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2604 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2605 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2606 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2607 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2608 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2609 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2610 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2611 first to register linked modules.
2613 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2614 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2615 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2617 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2618 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2619 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2620 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2622 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2624 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2627 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2628 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2629 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2631 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2633 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2634 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2635 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2637 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2639 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2640 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2641 result of the last form.
2643 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2645 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2648 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2650 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2651 readline-set!: New options interface.
2653 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2655 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2657 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2658 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2660 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2662 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2663 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2665 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2667 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2668 interactive session.
2669 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2671 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2672 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2674 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2676 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2678 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2680 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2681 read line was empty.
2683 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2685 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2686 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2688 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2690 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2692 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2693 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2694 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2696 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2697 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2699 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2700 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2701 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2703 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2704 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2705 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2706 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2707 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2708 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2710 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2712 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2713 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2715 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2717 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2718 and short vectors #h(...).
2720 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2722 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2723 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2724 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2726 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2728 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2729 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2730 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2732 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2734 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2735 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2737 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2738 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2739 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2740 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2742 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2744 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2747 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2748 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2749 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2750 context with traps enabled.
2752 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2754 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2756 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2758 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2760 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2761 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2762 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2763 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2764 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2766 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2768 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2769 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2771 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2773 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2775 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2777 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2779 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2781 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2783 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2785 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2786 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2788 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2790 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2791 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2792 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2793 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2796 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2797 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2798 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2800 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2802 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2803 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2804 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2805 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2806 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2807 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2808 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2810 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2812 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2814 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2816 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2817 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2818 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2819 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2820 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2821 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2823 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2825 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2826 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2827 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2830 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2832 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2834 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2836 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2838 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2840 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2843 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2845 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2847 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2849 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2850 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2852 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2854 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2855 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2856 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2857 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2859 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2860 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2862 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2864 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2866 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2868 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2869 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2872 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2873 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2875 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2876 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2877 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2879 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2881 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2883 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2885 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2886 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2888 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2890 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2892 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2894 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2895 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2897 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2899 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2902 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2904 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2905 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2907 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2909 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2911 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2913 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2916 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2918 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2919 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2920 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2921 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2922 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2925 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2927 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2928 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2929 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2931 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2933 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2935 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2936 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2938 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2940 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2941 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2942 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2943 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2944 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2945 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2946 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2949 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2951 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2954 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2956 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2957 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2958 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2959 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2960 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2961 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2963 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2965 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2966 usefully so they will work from a script.
2968 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2970 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2971 neighborhood of the record code.
2973 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2975 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2976 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2977 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2978 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2980 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2982 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2983 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2984 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2986 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2988 Add support for readline function.
2989 * readline.scm: New module.
2990 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2991 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2992 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2994 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2995 repl-reader to use them.
2996 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2998 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
3000 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3002 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3003 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
3005 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3007 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
3008 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
3009 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
3011 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3013 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
3014 #f, abort terminates the process.
3015 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
3016 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
3018 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3020 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
3021 print-state, throw it away.
3023 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3025 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
3028 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3030 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
3031 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
3032 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
3033 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
3035 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
3036 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
3038 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3040 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3042 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3044 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3045 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3046 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3047 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3048 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3050 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3051 distribution and installation.
3052 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3054 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3056 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3058 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3060 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3061 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3062 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3064 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3065 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3068 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3070 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3072 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3074 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3076 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3077 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3078 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3079 field a separate argument.
3081 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3083 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3085 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3087 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3091 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3093 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3095 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3097 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3098 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3099 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3100 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3101 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3102 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3104 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3105 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3106 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3107 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3108 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3111 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3113 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
3115 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3117 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3118 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3120 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3122 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3124 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3125 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3126 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3127 expansion inside the slib module.
3129 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3131 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3132 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
3133 (let): New core form.
3134 (if): Removed from core language.
3135 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.

3137 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3139 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3140 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3141 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3143 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3144 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3147 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3149 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3150 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3152 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3154 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3155 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3156 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3157 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3158 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3159 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3160 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3161 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
3163 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
3165 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3167 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3169 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3170 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3171 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3172 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3173 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3175 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3176 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3177 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3179 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3180 the syncase interface.
3182 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3184 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3185 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3186 workings of the current module system).
3188 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3190 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3191 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
3194 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3196 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
3197 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3198 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3200 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3202 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3203 according to the following priorities:
3204 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3205 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3207 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3208 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3209 (new-interpreter): New function.
3211 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3212 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3213 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3215 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3217 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3219 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3221 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
3223 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3225 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
3227 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
3229 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3231 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3232 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
3235 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3237 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3238 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
3239 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
3240 symbols matching regexp.
3242 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
3243 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3246 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3247 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3248 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
3249 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
3250 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3252 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
3253 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3255 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3257 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
3258 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
3260 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
3261 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
3263 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
3265 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3267 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
3268 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
3269 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
3271 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
3273 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
3274 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
3275 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
3277 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3279 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
3280 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.
3282 Sat Aug 16 18:44:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3284 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
3287 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3289 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3290 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3291 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3293 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3294 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3297 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3298 order to narrow it correctly.
3299 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
3301 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3303 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
3304 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
3306 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3308 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3310 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3312 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3313 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3315 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3317 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3318 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3319 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3321 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3323 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
3326 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3328 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
3329 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
3330 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
3331 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
3332 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
3334 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3336 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
3337 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
3340 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
3342 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3344 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
3345 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
3346 notation, instead of #/ notation.
3348 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
3351 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3353 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
3354 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3355 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3356 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3357 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3358 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3360 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3361 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3362 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3363 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3365 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3367 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3368 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3369 sending in bug reports.
3370 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3371 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3372 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3373 display a warning if the two are different.
3374 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3375 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3376 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3378 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3380 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
3382 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3384 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3385 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3387 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3388 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3389 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3390 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3391 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3392 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3395 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3396 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3399 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3400 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3402 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3405 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3408 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3410 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
3413 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3415 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3416 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3418 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3420 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3421 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3422 to support printing of structures.
3423 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3424 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3425 commented out printing code.
3426 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3427 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
3429 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3431 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
3433 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3435 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
3436 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
3437 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3438 during call to scm-style-repl.
3440 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3442 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3443 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3444 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3445 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3446 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3448 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3450 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3451 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3454 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3456 * regex.scm: New file.
3457 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3458 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3460 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3462 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3463 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3464 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3465 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3467 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3469 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3472 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3474 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3475 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3476 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3478 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3480 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3481 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3484 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3486 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3488 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3490 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3492 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3494 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3495 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3498 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3500 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3501 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3502 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3504 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3506 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3507 the Scheme code like code yet.
3508 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3510 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3512 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3513 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3514 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3516 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3518 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3520 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3523 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3525 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3527 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3529 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3531 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3532 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3533 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3535 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3537 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3538 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3539 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3541 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3543 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3544 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3546 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3548 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3551 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3553 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3555 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3557 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3558 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3560 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3562 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3563 instead of in libguile.
3564 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3565 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3567 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3569 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3571 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3572 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3574 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3576 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3577 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3579 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3581 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3582 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3583 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3584 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3586 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3588 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3589 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3591 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3593 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3595 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3597 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3598 keywords and symbols.
3600 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3602 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3604 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3605 Don't define read-sharp.
3607 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3608 (read-sharp): removed.
3609 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3610 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3612 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3614 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3616 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3617 primitive procedure.)
3619 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3620 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3622 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3624 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3626 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3628 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3630 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3632 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3634 * (exit): alias for quit.
3636 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3638 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3639 return the quit args.
3640 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3641 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3642 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3644 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3646 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3648 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3650 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3651 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3653 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3654 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3656 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3657 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3660 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3662 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3664 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3665 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3666 Change hooks to use these functions.
3668 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3669 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3670 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3672 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3673 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3674 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3675 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3676 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3677 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3678 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3681 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3682 and exit-frame exceptions.
3684 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3685 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3686 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3687 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3688 result; otherwise display "> ".
3689 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3691 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3692 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3693 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3694 repository version runnable.
3696 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3698 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3699 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3700 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3701 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3702 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3703 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3705 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3707 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3708 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3710 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3712 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3713 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3715 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3717 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3719 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3721 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3724 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3726 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3727 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3729 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3731 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3734 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3736 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3737 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3739 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3741 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3743 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3744 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3745 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3746 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3747 dynamic linking of modules.
3748 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3749 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3751 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3753 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3755 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3757 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3760 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3761 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3764 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3766 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3767 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3768 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3770 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3772 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3773 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3776 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3778 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3779 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3780 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3782 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3784 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3785 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3786 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3787 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3789 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3790 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3791 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3792 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3793 (such as the-scm-module).
3795 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3797 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3800 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3802 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.

3806 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3808 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3809 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3810 function, use it accordingly.
3812 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3814 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3815 function of no arguments.
3816 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3817 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3818 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3819 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3820 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3821 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3822 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3823 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3825 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3827 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3828 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3830 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3832 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3833 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3834 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3835 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3836 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3838 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3841 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3842 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3843 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3844 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3846 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3848 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3850 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3851 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3852 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3854 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3857 Added `before-read-hook'.
3859 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3861 (provide): New function.
3863 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3866 (backtrace): New function.
3868 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3869 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3870 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3871 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3872 is found in operator position in a frame.
3874 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3877 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3878 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3879 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3881 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3883 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3885 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3887 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3889 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3891 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3893 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3894 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3896 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3897 so they'll get distributed.
3899 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3900 should see as little clutter as possible.
3901 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3902 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3903 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3905 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3906 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3907 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3908 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3909 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3910 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3911 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3912 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3913 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3914 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3916 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3917 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3919 * test.scm: New file.
3921 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3922 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3923 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3925 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3926 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3928 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3930 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3931 call %load-announce.
3933 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3935 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3936 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3937 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3939 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3941 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3943 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3944 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3945 SCSH (which this isn't).
3947 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3949 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3951 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3953 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3954 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3955 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3957 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3958 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3959 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3960 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3963 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3965 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3967 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3969 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3970 error-catching-loop.
3971 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3972 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3973 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3975 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3976 error-catching-loop.
3978 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3980 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3981 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3982 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3983 should be '(), not #f.
3985 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3986 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3988 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3990 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3991 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3994 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3996 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3997 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3998 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3999 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
4001 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4003 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
4005 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4007 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
4009 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
4010 throw-handler-default.
4011 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
4013 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
4015 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
4016 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
4018 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4020 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
4021 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
4022 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
4023 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
4025 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4027 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
4028 Append "." to the default %load-path.
4029 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
4030 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
4032 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
4033 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
4034 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
4035 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
4038 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4040 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4042 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4045 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4048 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4050 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4052 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4053 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4055 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4057 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4059 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4061 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4063 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4064 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4065 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4066 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4067 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4069 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4070 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4071 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4072 they seem redundant.
4073 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4074 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4075 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4076 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4077 directly files starting with "/").
4078 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4079 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4081 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4083 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4085 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4086 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4087 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4088 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4089 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4090 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4091 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4092 robust to just do it in the C code.
4094 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4096 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4097 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4098 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4099 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4100 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4102 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4104 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4105 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4106 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4108 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4110 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4111 system-error, not every kind of error.
4112 (scm-error): new procedure.
4114 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4116 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4118 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4120 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4121 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4122 of args are supplied.
4123 (%%system-errors): removed.
4124 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4125 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4126 %%handle-system-error.
4127 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4128 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4129 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4130 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4132 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4134 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4135 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4136 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4137 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4139 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4141 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4142 the empty list if they are #f.
4143 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4145 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4147 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4149 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4150 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4151 aborting, just the key and subr.
4152 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4153 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4154 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4156 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4158 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4159 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4160 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4161 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4162 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4164 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4166 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4167 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4168 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4169 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4171 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4173 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4174 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4175 initialize %load-path.
4177 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4178 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4180 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4182 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4183 Add the directory named after the version number.
4184 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4185 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4186 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4187 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4188 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4189 (install): Create the above directories.
4190 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4191 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4193 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4195 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4196 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4197 in the Makefile directly.
4198 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4200 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4202 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4203 here, where people expect to find them.
4205 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4207 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4208 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4210 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4212 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4214 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
4215 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4217 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4219 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
4220 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
4222 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
4223 weak-key-hash-table.
4225 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4227 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
4228 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
4229 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
4230 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
4231 (%open-file): removed.
4232 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
4233 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
4235 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4237 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
4238 (manifest): Deleted.
4239 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
4240 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
4242 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4244 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
4245 now that they throw errors directly.
4246 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
4247 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
4249 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4251 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
4253 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
4255 * The more things change...
