1 2004-05-29 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
3 * boot-9.scm: Reordered definitions such that macro definitions
4 preceed their first usage. Include and define deprecated stuff
5 late in the file to have a better change of detecting accidental
6 uses of deprecated definitions. Further, unified the layout a
7 little and grouped definitions more cleanly into topics.
9 2004-05-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
11 * history.scm (use-value-history): Use resolve-interface instead
12 of resolve-module so that only the exported bindings are searched.
13 (save-value-history): Export the newly defined variable. Reported
14 by Wolfgang Jaehrling.
16 2004-05-04 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
18 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): Always start searching from the
19 root module. This will allow the C equivalent scm_resolve_module
20 to work, independent of what the current module is.
22 2004-02-18 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
24 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Make the (guile-user) module use the

29 * boot-9.scm (module-map): Renamed hash-map -> hash-map->list.
31 2004-02-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
33 * debugger/trap-hooks.scm (debug-hook-membership): New, exported.
35 * debugger/commands.scm (debug-trap-hooks): New, exported.
37 2004-02-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
39 * debugger/breakpoints/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES),
40 debugger/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES), Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES): Use
41 this variable instead of ETAGS_ARGS so that TAGS can be built
42 using separate build directory.
44 2004-01-20 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
46 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Back out 2003-11-19 change to
47 lazy-handler-dispatch lookup.
49 2004-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>

54 2004-01-11 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
56 * slib.scm (system): New function, giving an exit code return in
57 accordance with slib spec.
59 Revert this, it breaks test-suite/tests/r5rs_pitfalls.test where
60 false-if-exception is used within syntax-rules. (Suspect syntax-rules
61 ought to support this sort of thing, but it doesn't right now.)
62 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
63 to depend on expansion environment.
65 2004-01-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
67 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): Use with-fluid* when only one fluid is

75 2004-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
77 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
78 to depend on expansion environment.
80 * slib.scm (-1+, <?, <=?, =?, >?, >=?): Define as aliases for 1-, <,
81 <=, =, >, >= respectively, required by slib 'rev2-procedures but no
82 longer in the guile core.
84 2003-11-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
86 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Defer lookup of
87 lazy-handler-dispatch.

99 * debugger.scm: Change ui-* calls to gds-*.
100 (debug-on-error): Debug if throw key is in specified syms, not if
101 it isn't! Also throw 'abort after debugging, so as to skip the
104 * debugger/behaviour.scm (*trap*): New variable, stores trap type.

106 before-exit-frame-hook): Set here.

126 2003-10-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
128 * ftw.scm (directory-files): Close dir-stream when done. Thanks
131 2003-10-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
133 * poe.scm (funcq-assoc): Rewrite, don't assume '() is false, and
134 actually traverse the given alist.
136 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
138 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
142 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
144 * debugger/ui-client.scm (ui-disable-async-thread,
145 ui-continue-async-thread, start-async-ui-thread): New.
146 (ui-command-loop): Call ui-disable-async-thread and
147 ui-continue-async-thread.
148 (handle-instruction): Read terminating newline char so it doesn't
149 cause following select to pop immediately.

153 * debugger/ui-client.scm, debugger/ui-server.scm: New (work in
154 progress on new debugging front end).
156 2003-09-24 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
158 * debugger.scm (default-default-lazy-handler, debug-on-error):
161 * debugger/behaviour.scm (debug-if-flag-set): Display debug entry
162 messages through (debugger-output-port).

180 2003-09-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
182 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
183 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
184 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
185 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
186 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
188 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
190 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
191 the obarray, not an empty vector.
192 (make-module): Always construct a hashtable for the obarray, even
195 * format.scm (format:error): Use 'format:format' instead of
196 'format' since the latter will lock the mutex again that we have
198 (format:format-work): Flag multiple '#' as an error.
200 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
202 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
203 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
205 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
207 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
208 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
209 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
211 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
212 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
214 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
216 * threads.scm (parallel): For no forms, use `(values)' not `(begin)'.

223 2003-05-20 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>

235 instead of substring-move-left! or substring-move-right!. Thanks
238 * deprecated.scm (substring-move-left!, substring-move-right!):
241 * boot-9.scm (display-usage-report): Use keyword->symbol instead
242 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.
244 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-get-handle): Pass only the expected four
245 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
247 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
248 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
250 2003-04-25 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kvast.blakulla.net>
252 * serialize.scm: New file.
254 2003-04-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
256 * threads.scm (n-for-each-par-map): New procedure.

278 2003-03-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
280 * format.scm (format:out-substr): Update the column counter
281 correctly. This fixes the behavior of ~T (tabbing) after ~F, for
282 instance. Thanks to Matthias Koeppe!
284 2003-03-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
286 * session.scm (apropos): Don't look in duplicates interface.
288 2003-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
290 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers): Make sure the merge-generics
291 and merge-accessors handlers are available also before (oop goops)

396 expression before trying to treat it as a Guile macro call.
397 (Thanks to Kevin Ryde.)

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

505 removing it in my patch from 2002-11-16.
507 2002-11-24 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
509 Thanks to Mikael Djurfeldt for a bugreport which led to the
512 * slib.scm (%system-define): Removed.
514 (define): Changed to use define-private instead of

522 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it
523 has been removed from the core.

574 value will be returned by join-thread.

586 (debug): Rewrite to use more general `debug-stack'.
588 * debugger/commands.scm, debugger/command-loop.scm,

614 2002-10-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
616 * threads.scm (%thread-handler): Do not call unmask-signals, that
617 should be unnecessary now.
619 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
621 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in
622 guile-user-module (should it be there?) instead of

642 2002-10-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
644 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use "1" instead of "%deliver-signals" to
645 limit the signal stack.
647 2002-09-15 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
649 * boot-9.scm (feature?): Added deprecation message.
651 2002-09-14 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
653 * boot-9.scm (sqrt): minor indentation fix.
655 2002-09-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

727 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
729 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
731 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
732 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
733 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
735 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
737 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

745 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
747 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
749 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
750 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
751 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
752 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
754 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
756 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
758 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
759 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
760 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
762 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
764 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

782 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

786 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
787 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
788 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
789 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
792 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
794 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
797 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
799 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
800 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
801 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
802 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
804 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
806 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
807 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
808 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of

813 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
815 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>

826 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
828 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
829 the `arglist' procedure property.
830 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to

833 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
835 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
837 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission

841 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
843 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
845 (feature?): Deprecated.

854 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
856 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
857 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.

867 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
869 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

873 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
875 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
877 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
878 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
879 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
881 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
883 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
884 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
886 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
888 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
890 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
892 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
896 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
898 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
899 last-command fluid is not yet set.
901 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
903 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
905 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
906 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
907 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
909 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
911 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
912 handle :use-syntax correctly.
914 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
916 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
919 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
921 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
922 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
923 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
924 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
925 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
927 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
929 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
930 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
931 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
933 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
935 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
936 primitives. Thanks Neil!
938 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
940 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
941 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
942 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
943 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
945 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
946 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
947 since there aren't definitions for them.
949 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
950 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
952 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
954 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
955 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
957 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
959 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
960 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
962 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
964 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
965 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
966 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
968 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
970 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
972 * tags.scm: Removed file.
974 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
976 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
977 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
979 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
980 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
981 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
984 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
986 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
987 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
989 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
991 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
992 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
994 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
995 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
996 evaluator trap options.)

1000 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
1002 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1004 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.

1008 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
1010 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1012 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
1013 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
1015 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1018 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
1019 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
1020 No longer require `pretty-print'.
1022 (slib:error): Delete.
1023 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
1025 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1030 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
1034 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1036 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
1037 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
1038 rdelim) module. See below.
1040 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1042 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
1043 include-deprecated-features is true.
1045 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1047 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
1050 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
1051 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
1052 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1054 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
1055 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
1056 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
1059 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1061 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
1062 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
1063 variable, not just a visible one.
1064 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
1065 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
1066 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
1067 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
1068 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
1069 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
1071 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
1073 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
1074 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
1076 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1078 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
1079 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
1081 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1083 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
1085 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1087 Added exception notice to all files.
1089 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
1090 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
1091 importing bindings once in a while.
1093 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1095 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
1096 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
1097 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1098 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
1099 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
1100 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
1101 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
1102 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
1104 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
1105 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
1107 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1109 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
1110 fix command so that it works.
1112 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
1113 to access unbound variables.
1115 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
1116 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
1117 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
1118 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
1119 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
1121 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1123 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
1124 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
1125 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
1126 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
1127 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
1128 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
1129 argument for process-define-module.
1130 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
1131 arguments for process-use-modules.
1132 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
1134 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1136 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
1137 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
1138 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
1141 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
1142 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
1143 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
1145 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
1147 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1149 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules
1151 (cond-expand): Use feature information associated with modules.
1153 2001-05-21 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

1156 (cond-expand-provide): New procedure.
1158 2001-05-22 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1160 * boot-9.scm (define-module): Return the new module.
1161 (process-define-module): Use `spec' instead of `module-name' when
1162 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1164 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1166 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
1167 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
1169 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
1172 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1174 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
1175 * match.scm: Likewise.
1176 * expect.scm: Likewise.
1177 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
1179 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
1181 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.

1185 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
1186 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
1187 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
1188 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
1189 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
1190 element list when adding "." to it.

1256 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1257 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1258 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1259 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1260 `set-current-module' call.
1261 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1262 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

1496 make-buffered-input-port.
1498 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

1561 `interaction-evironment'.
1562 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
1564 (eval-when): New macro.
1565 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
1566 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
1567 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
1569 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the

1588 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1590 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
1593 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to

1633 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1634 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1635 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1636 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1637 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1638 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1639 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1641 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1643 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1644 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1646 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1648 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1651 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1653 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1656 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1658 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1660 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1662 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1663 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1664 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1665 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1666 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,

1671 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1672 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,

1674 make-shared-substring.
1676 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1678 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1679 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1680 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1681 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1684 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1686 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1687 and open-output-pipe.
1689 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1691 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1692 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1693 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1694 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1695 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1696 Pirotte for the bug report).
1697 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1698 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1700 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1702 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1723 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1724 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1726 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1727 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1728 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1729 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1730 actual documentation entries themselves.
1732 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1734 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1736 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1738 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
1740 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1742 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
1743 Convert first argument to a string.
1745 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
1746 getter-and-setter-syntax,
1747 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
1748 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
1750 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
1752 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
1754 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1756 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1758 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1760 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1762 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1764 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1765 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1766 even worked... /mdj.
1767 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1769 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1772 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1774 * psyntax.ss (set!): Added generalized set! support to core syntax

1790 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1792 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
1795 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1797 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1798 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1799 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1800 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1801 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1803 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1805 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1807 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1808 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1810 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1813 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1814 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1815 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1816 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1818 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1820 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
1821 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
1823 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
1825 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1826 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1828 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1830 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1831 definition of module-type.
1833 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1835 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1837 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1839 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1840 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1842 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1844 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1846 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1848 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1849 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1850 Mikael for the suggestion.
1852 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1854 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1855 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1857 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1859 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1862 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1864 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1866 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1868 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1869 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1872 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1873 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1876 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1878 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1879 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1881 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1882 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1883 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1885 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1887 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1889 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1891 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1892 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1894 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1896 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1897 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1899 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1901 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1902 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1904 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1906 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1908 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1910 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1912 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1916 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1917 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1919 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1921 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1924 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1925 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1926 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1927 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1930 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1932 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1934 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1936 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1937 (write-all): Removed.
1938 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1939 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1941 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1943 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1944 `proc-documentation'
1946 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1947 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1948 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1949 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1950 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1951 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1952 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1955 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1957 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1959 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1961 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1962 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1963 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1966 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1968 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1969 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1970 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1971 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1972 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1973 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1974 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1976 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1978 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1979 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1981 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1983 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1984 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1986 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1988 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1989 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1990 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1991 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1992 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1993 delete-if! when iterating.
1995 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1997 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1999 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2001 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
2003 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2005 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
2006 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
2007 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
2008 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
2010 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2012 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
2013 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
2015 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2017 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
2018 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
2019 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
2020 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
2022 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
2024 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
2025 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
2027 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2029 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
2030 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
2032 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2034 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
2037 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2039 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
2040 source of the numerous very short changes.
2042 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2044 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
2047 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
2050 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2052 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
2055 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2057 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
2058 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
2060 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2062 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
2065 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2067 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
2068 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
2069 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
2071 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2073 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
2074 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
2075 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
2076 Narazaki for this change.
2078 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2080 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
2081 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
2084 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
2085 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
2087 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2089 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
2090 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
2092 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2094 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
2095 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
2096 use define-public to export from the module.
2098 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2100 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
2101 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
2102 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
2104 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2106 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
2108 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2110 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
2111 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
2113 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2115 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
2117 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
2119 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
2121 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2123 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
2124 long_long uniform vectors.
2126 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2128 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
2129 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
2131 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2133 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
2134 script to create generated files like this one.
2136 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2138 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2139 available before using getpw and getuid.
2140 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2141 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2143 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2144 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2145 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2147 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2148 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2149 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2151 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2152 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2154 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2156 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2158 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2159 than 'exit-debugger.
2161 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2162 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2164 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
2166 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2168 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
2169 Mark module with :no-backtrace.

2171 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2172 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.

2180 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
2183 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2185 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2186 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2188 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2190 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2192 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2194 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2195 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2197 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2198 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2199 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2201 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2204 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2206 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2207 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2209 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2211 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2213 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2214 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2215 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2216 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2218 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2221 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2222 both forward and backward views of the stack
2223 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2224 Use selector `frame-number';
2225 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2226 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2228 Use readline conditionally.
2230 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2232 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2233 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2234 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2236 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2237 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2240 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2242 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2244 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2246 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2248 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2250 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2252 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2253 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2254 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2255 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2256 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2257 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2258 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2259 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2260 libguile-config-stamp.
2261 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2262 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2263 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2264 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2265 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2267 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2269 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2270 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2271 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2273 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2274 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2275 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2276 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2279 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2281 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2283 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2285 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2287 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2288 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2290 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2292 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2293 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2294 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2295 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2296 objects starting with '#/'.
2298 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2300 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2301 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2302 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2303 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2304 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2305 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2307 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2308 module-modified): New procedures.
2309 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2310 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2312 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2314 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2317 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2319 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2320 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2321 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2323 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2326 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2328 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2329 at multiple calls to read.
2330 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2331 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2332 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2333 continued-lines prompt.
2335 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2336 reading expressions.
2338 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2340 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2341 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2343 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2345 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2346 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2349 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2351 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2352 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2354 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2355 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2356 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2357 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2358 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2361 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2363 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2364 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2366 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2368 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2369 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2370 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2371 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2373 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2375 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2377 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2378 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2379 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2382 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2384 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2385 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2386 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2387 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2388 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2389 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2390 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2391 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2392 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2393 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2394 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2396 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2398 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2399 peeked from the stream.
2400 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2401 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2402 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2404 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2406 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2407 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2409 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2411 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2412 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2413 exiting repl with single control-D.
2415 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2417 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2418 error catching loop after quit received.
2419 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2421 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2422 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2423 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2425 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2426 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2428 * popen.scm: new file.
2430 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2432 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2433 (reverse-iota): removed.
2435 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2437 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2438 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2440 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2442 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2443 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2444 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2445 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2446 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2448 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2450 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2452 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2453 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2455 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2456 Guile's module system.
2458 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2460 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2461 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2462 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2463 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2464 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2465 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2467 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2468 '() when the condition is false.
2470 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2472 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2474 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2476 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2478 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2480 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2481 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2482 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2484 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2486 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2487 argument order for hash-fold.
2489 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2491 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2493 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2494 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2496 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2497 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2498 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2499 has been added to the load path).
2501 Use try-load-module.
2503 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2505 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2506 module between system and user state.
2508 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2510 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2512 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2515 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2517 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2518 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2519 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2521 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2523 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2524 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2525 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2526 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2527 stack frame encountered.
2529 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2530 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2531 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2532 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2535 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2536 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2537 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2538 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2541 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2542 define-module switches:
2544 (define-module (foo)
2547 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2550 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2551 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2552 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2553 module it is a system frame.
2555 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2556 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2557 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2558 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2559 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2561 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2562 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2563 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2564 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2565 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2566 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2568 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2569 status of a module.;
2570 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2571 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2573 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2574 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2575 closure to the module.
2577 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2579 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2581 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2583 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2585 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2587 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2589 Fix from Russ McManus:
2590 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2591 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2592 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2593 either an optional or required value.
2595 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2597 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2599 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2600 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2602 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2603 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2604 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2605 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2607 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2609 * optargs.scm: New file.
2610 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2611 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2613 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2615 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2616 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2617 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2619 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2621 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2622 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2625 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2627 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2629 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2631 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2632 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2633 applied to the module itself.
2635 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2637 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2639 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2640 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2642 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2644 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2646 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2648 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2650 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2652 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2653 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2655 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2657 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2658 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2659 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2660 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2661 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2662 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2663 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2665 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2667 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2668 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2670 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2672 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2673 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2676 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2678 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2680 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2682 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2684 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2686 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2687 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2688 adapt to the new hooks.
2690 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2692 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2693 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2694 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2696 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2697 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2699 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2700 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2701 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2702 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2703 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2704 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2705 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2706 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2707 first to register linked modules.
2709 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2710 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2711 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2713 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2714 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2715 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2716 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2718 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2720 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2723 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2724 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2725 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2727 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2729 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2730 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2731 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2733 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2735 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2736 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2737 result of the last form.
2739 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2741 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2744 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2746 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2747 readline-set!: New options interface.
2749 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2751 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2753 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2754 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2756 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2758 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2759 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2761 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2763 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2764 interactive session.
2765 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2767 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2768 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2770 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2772 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2774 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2776 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2777 read line was empty.
2779 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2781 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2782 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2784 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2786 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2788 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2789 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2790 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2792 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2793 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2795 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2796 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2797 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2799 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2800 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2801 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2802 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2803 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2804 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2806 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2808 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2809 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2811 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2813 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2814 and short vectors #h(...).
2816 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2818 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2819 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2820 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2822 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2824 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2825 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2826 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2828 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2830 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2831 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2833 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2834 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2835 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2836 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2838 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2840 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2843 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2844 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2845 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2846 context with traps enabled.
2848 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2850 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2852 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2854 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2856 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2857 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2858 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2859 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2860 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2862 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2864 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2865 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2867 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2869 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2871 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2873 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2875 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2877 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2879 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2881 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2882 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2884 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2886 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2887 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2888 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2889 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2892 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2893 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2894 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2896 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2898 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2899 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2900 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2901 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2902 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2903 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2904 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2906 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2908 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2910 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2912 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2913 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2914 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2915 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2916 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2917 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2919 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2921 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2922 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2923 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2926 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2928 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2930 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2932 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2934 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2936 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2939 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2941 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2943 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2945 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2946 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2948 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2950 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2951 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2952 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2953 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2955 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2956 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2958 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2960 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2962 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2964 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2965 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2968 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2969 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2971 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2972 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2973 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2975 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2977 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2979 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2981 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2982 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2984 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2986 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2988 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2990 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2991 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2993 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2995 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2998 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3000 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
3001 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
3003 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3005 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
3007 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3009 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
3012 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3014 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
3015 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
3016 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
3017 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
3018 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
3021 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3023 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
3024 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
3025 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
3027 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3029 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
3031 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
3032 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
3034 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3036 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
3037 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
3038 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
3039 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
3040 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
3041 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
3042 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
3045 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3047 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
3050 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3052 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
3053 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
3054 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
3055 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
3056 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
3057 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
3059 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3061 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
3062 usefully so they will work from a script.
3064 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3066 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
3067 neighborhood of the record code.
3069 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3071 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
3072 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
3073 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
3074 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
3076 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3078 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
3079 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
3080 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3082 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3084 Add support for readline function.
3085 * readline.scm: New module.
3086 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
3087 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
3088 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
3090 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
3091 repl-reader to use them.
3092 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
3094 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
3096 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3098 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3099 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
3101 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3103 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
3104 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
3105 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
3107 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3109 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
3110 #f, abort terminates the process.
3111 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
3112 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
3114 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3116 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
3117 print-state, throw it away.
3119 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3121 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
3124 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3126 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
3127 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
3128 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
3129 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
3131 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
3132 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
3134 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3136 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3138 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3140 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3141 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3142 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3143 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3144 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3146 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3147 distribution and installation.
3148 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3150 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3152 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3154 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3156 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3157 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3158 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3160 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3161 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3164 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3166 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3168 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3170 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3172 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3173 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3174 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3175 field a separate argument.
3177 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3179 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3181 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3183 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3187 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3189 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3191 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3193 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3194 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3195 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3196 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3197 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3198 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3200 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3201 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3202 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3203 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3204 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3207 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3209 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
3211 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3213 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3214 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3216 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3218 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3220 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3221 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3222 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3223 expansion inside the slib module.
3225 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3227 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3228 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
3229 (let): New core form.
3230 (if): Removed from core language.
3231 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
3232 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
3233 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3235 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3236 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3237 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3239 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3240 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3243 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3245 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3246 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3248 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3250 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3251 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3252 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3253 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3254 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3255 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3256 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3257 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
3259 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
3261 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3263 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3265 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3266 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3267 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3268 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3269 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3271 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3272 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3273 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3275 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3276 the syncase interface.
3278 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3280 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3281 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3282 workings of the current module system).
3284 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3286 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3287 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
3290 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3292 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
3293 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3294 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3296 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3298 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3299 according to the following priorities:
3300 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3301 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3303 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3304 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3305 (new-interpreter): New function.
3307 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3308 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3309 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3311 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3313 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3315 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3317 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
3319 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3321 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
3323 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
3325 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3327 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3328 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
3331 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3333 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3334 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
3335 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
3336 symbols matching regexp.
3338 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
3339 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3342 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3343 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3344 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);

3346 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3348 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
3349 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3351 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3353 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
3354 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
3356 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
3357 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
3359 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
3361 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3363 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
3364 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
3365 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.

3371 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
3373 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3375 * session.scm: New file: Session support.

3378 Sat Aug 16 18:44:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3380 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
3383 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3385 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3386 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3387 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3389 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3390 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3393 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3394 order to narrow it correctly.
3395 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
3397 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3399 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
3400 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
3402 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3404 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3406 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3408 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3409 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3411 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3413 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3414 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3415 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3417 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3419 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
3422 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3424 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
3425 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
3426 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
3427 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
3428 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
3430 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3432 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
3433 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
3436 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
3438 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3440 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
3441 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
3442 notation, instead of #/ notation.
3444 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
3447 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3449 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
3450 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3451 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3452 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3453 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3454 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3456 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3457 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3458 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3459 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3461 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3463 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3464 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3465 sending in bug reports.
3466 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3467 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3468 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3469 display a warning if the two are different.
3470 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3471 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3472 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3474 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3476 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
3478 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3480 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3481 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3483 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3484 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3485 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3486 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3487 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3488 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3491 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3492 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3495 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3496 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3498 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3501 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3504 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3506 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
3509 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3511 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3512 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3514 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3516 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3517 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3518 to support printing of structures.
3519 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3520 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3521 commented out printing code.
3522 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3523 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
3525 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3527 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
3529 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3531 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
3532 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
3533 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3534 during call to scm-style-repl.
3536 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3538 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3539 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3540 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3541 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3542 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3544 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3546 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3547 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3550 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3552 * regex.scm: New file.
3553 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3554 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3556 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3558 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3559 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3560 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3561 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3563 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3565 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3568 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3570 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3571 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3572 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3574 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3576 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3577 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3580 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3582 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3584 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3586 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3588 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3590 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3591 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3594 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3596 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3597 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3598 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3600 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3602 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3603 the Scheme code like code yet.
3604 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3606 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3608 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3609 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3610 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3612 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3614 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3616 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3619 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3621 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3623 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3625 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3627 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3628 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3629 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3631 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3633 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3634 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3635 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3637 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3639 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3640 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3642 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3644 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3647 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3649 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3651 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3653 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3654 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3656 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3658 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3659 instead of in libguile.
3660 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3661 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3663 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3665 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3667 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3668 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3670 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3672 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3673 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3675 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3677 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3678 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3679 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3680 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3682 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3684 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3685 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3687 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3689 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3691 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3693 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3694 keywords and symbols.
3696 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3698 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3700 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3701 Don't define read-sharp.
3703 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3704 (read-sharp): removed.
3705 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3706 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3708 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3710 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3712 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3713 primitive procedure.)
3715 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3716 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3718 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3720 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3722 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3724 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3726 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3728 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3730 * (exit): alias for quit.
3732 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3734 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3735 return the quit args.
3736 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3737 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3738 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3740 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3742 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3744 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3746 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3747 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3749 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3750 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3752 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3753 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3756 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3758 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3760 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3761 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3762 Change hooks to use these functions.
3764 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3765 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3766 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3768 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3769 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3770 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3771 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3772 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3773 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3774 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3777 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3778 and exit-frame exceptions.
3780 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3781 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3782 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3783 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3784 result; otherwise display "> ".
3785 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3787 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3788 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3789 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3790 repository version runnable.
3792 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3794 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3795 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3796 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3797 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3798 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3799 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3801 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3803 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3804 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3806 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3808 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3809 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3811 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3813 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3815 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3817 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3820 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3822 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3823 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3825 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3827 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3830 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3832 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3833 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3835 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3837 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3839 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3840 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3841 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3842 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3843 dynamic linking of modules.
3844 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3845 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3847 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3849 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3851 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3853 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3856 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3857 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3860 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3862 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3863 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3864 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3866 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3868 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3869 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3872 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3874 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3875 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3876 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3878 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3880 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3881 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3882 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3883 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3885 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3886 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3887 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3888 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3889 (such as the-scm-module).
3891 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3893 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3896 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3898 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3899 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3900 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3902 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3904 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3905 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3906 function, use it accordingly.
3908 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3910 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3911 function of no arguments.
3912 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3913 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3914 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3915 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3916 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3917 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3918 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3919 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3921 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3923 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3924 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3926 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3928 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3929 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3930 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3931 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3932 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3934 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3937 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3938 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3939 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3940 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3942 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3944 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3946 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3947 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3948 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3950 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3953 Added `before-read-hook'.
3955 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3957 (provide): New function.
3959 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3962 (backtrace): New function.
3964 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3965 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3966 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3967 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3968 is found in operator position in a frame.
3970 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3973 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3974 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3975 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3977 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3979 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3981 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3983 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3985 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3987 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3989 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3990 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3992 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3993 so they'll get distributed.
3995 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3996 should see as little clutter as possible.
3997 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3998 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3999 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
4001 * r4rs.scm: New file.
4002 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
4003 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
4004 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
4005 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
4006 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
4007 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
4008 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
4009 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
4010 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
4012 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
4013 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
4015 * test.scm: New file.
4017 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
4018 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
4019 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
4021 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
4022 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
4024 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
4026 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
4027 call %load-announce.
4029 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4031 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
4032 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
4033 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
4035 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
4037 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4039 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
4040 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
4041 SCSH (which this isn't).
4043 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4045 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4047 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4049 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
4050 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
4051 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
4053 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
4054 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
4055 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
4056 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
4059 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4061 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
4063 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
4065 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
4066 error-catching-loop.
4067 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
4068 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
4069 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
4071 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
4072 error-catching-loop.
4074 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4076 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
4077 (make-module): Rework for readability.
4078 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
4079 should be '(), not #f.
4081 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
4082 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
4084 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4086 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
4087 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
4090 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4092 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
4093 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
4094 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
4095 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
4097 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4099 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
4101 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4103 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
4105 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
4106 throw-handler-default.
4107 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
4109 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
4111 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
4112 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
4114 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4116 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
4117 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
4118 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
4119 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
4121 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4123 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
4124 Append "." to the default %load-path.
4125 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
4126 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
4128 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
4129 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
4130 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
4131 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
4134 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4136 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4138 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4141 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4144 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4146 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4148 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4149 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4151 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4153 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4155 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4157 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4159 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4160 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4161 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4162 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4163 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4165 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4166 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4167 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4168 they seem redundant.
4169 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4170 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4171 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4172 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4173 directly files starting with "/").
4174 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4175 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4177 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4179 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4181 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4182 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4183 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4184 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4185 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4186 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4187 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4188 robust to just do it in the C code.
4190 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4192 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4193 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4194 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4195 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4196 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4198 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4200 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4201 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4202 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4204 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4206 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4207 system-error, not every kind of error.
4208 (scm-error): new procedure.
4210 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4212 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4214 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4216 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4217 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4218 of args are supplied.
4219 (%%system-errors): removed.
4220 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4221 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4222 %%handle-system-error.
4223 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4224 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4225 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4226 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4228 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4230 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4231 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4232 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4233 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4235 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4237 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4238 the empty list if they are #f.
4239 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4241 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4243 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4245 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4246 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4247 aborting, just the key and subr.
4248 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4249 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4250 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4252 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4254 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4255 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4256 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4257 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4258 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4260 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4262 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4263 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4264 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4265 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4267 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4269 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4270 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4271 initialize %load-path.
4273 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4274 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4276 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4278 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4279 Add the directory named after the version number.
4280 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4281 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4282 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4283 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4284 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4285 (install): Create the above directories.
4286 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4287 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4289 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4291 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4292 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4293 in the Makefile directly.
4294 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4296 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4298 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4299 here, where people expect to find them.
4301 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4303 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4304 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4306 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4308 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4310 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
4311 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4313 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4315 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
4316 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
4318 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
