9 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
10 last-command fluid is not yet set.
12 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
14 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
16 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
17 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
18 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
20 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
22 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
23 handle :use-syntax correctly.
25 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
27 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
30 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
32 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
33 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.

35 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
36 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
38 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
40 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
41 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
42 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
44 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
46 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
47 primitives. Thanks Neil!
49 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
51 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
52 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
53 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
54 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
56 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
57 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
58 since there aren't definitions for them.
60 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
61 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
63 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
65 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
66 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
68 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
70 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
71 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
73 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
75 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
76 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
77 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
79 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
81 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
83 * tags.scm: Removed file.

87 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
88 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
90 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
91 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.

95 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
97 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
98 was a cut-n-paste error previously.

121 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
123 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
124 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
126 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
129 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
130 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
131 No longer require `pretty-print'.
133 (slib:error): Delete.
134 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
136 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
141 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
145 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
147 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
148 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
149 rdelim) module. See below.
151 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
153 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
154 include-deprecated-features is true.
156 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
158 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
161 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
162 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
163 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
165 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
166 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
167 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
170 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
172 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
173 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
174 variable, not just a visible one.
175 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
176 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
177 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
178 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
179 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
180 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
182 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
184 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
185 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
187 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
189 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
190 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
192 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
194 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
196 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
198 Added exception notice to all files.
200 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
201 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
202 importing bindings once in a while.
204 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
206 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
207 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
208 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
209 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
210 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
211 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
212 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
213 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
215 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
216 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
218 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
220 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
221 fix command so that it works.
223 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
224 to access unbound variables.
226 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
227 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
228 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
229 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
230 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
232 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
234 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
235 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
236 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
237 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
238 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
239 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
240 argument for process-define-module.
241 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
242 arguments for process-use-modules.
243 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
245 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
247 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
248 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
249 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
252 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
253 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
254 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
256 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.

283 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
285 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
286 * match.scm: Likewise.
287 * expect.scm: Likewise.
288 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
290 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
292 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
294 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
296 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
297 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
298 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
299 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
300 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
301 element list when adding "." to it.
302 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
303 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
305 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
307 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
309 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
310 now accepts arg; update callers.
311 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
312 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
314 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
315 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
316 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
317 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
318 `search-documentation-files'.
319 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
320 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
321 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
323 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
324 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
326 (find-documentation): Delete.
327 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
328 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.

332 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
333 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.

347 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
349 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
351 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with

358 (root-module-closure): Removed.
359 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
360 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
361 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
362 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
363 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
364 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
365 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
366 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
367 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
368 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
369 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
370 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
371 `set-current-module' call.
372 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
373 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

413 (process-use-modules): Arg is now `module-interface-specs',
414 which is passed through to `resolve-interface' as before; nfc.
415 (named-module-use!, top-repl): Abstraction maintenance: Use

596 2001-03-12 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
598 * common-list.scm (count-if): New procedure.
600 2001-03-10 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
602 * buffered-input.scm (make-buffered-input-port): New, more general
603 buffered input procedure. Does not assume that a newline
604 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
606 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
607 make-buffered-input-port.
609 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
611 * match.scm: Don't export defstruct. Use (unquote defstruct) instead.

624 changes in order to comply with paragraph 2a of the GPL. (Thanks
627 2001-03-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
629 * buffered-input.scm (make-line-buffered-input-port): Don't set
630 the continuation flag for leading whitespace. Thanks to Dirk
631 Herrmann for the suggestion.
633 2001-03-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
635 * optargs.scm (rest-arg->keyword-binding-list): Use "'()" instead
638 * buffered-input.scm: New file, with guts of line buffered input
639 port implementation extracted from guile-readline/readline.scm.
641 2001-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
643 * stack-catch.scm: New file.

650 where the empty list is meant.
652 2001-02-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
654 * boot-9.scm (save-stack): Use `primitive-eval' for stack
655 cutting. Makes backtraces work again! Also added a reference to
656 save-stack from the place in the repl where the primitive-eval
659 2001-02-25 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
661 * match.scm: New file, including Andrew K. Wright's pattern matcher.
662 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added match.scm.
664 2001-02-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
666 * boot-9.scm (eval-when, eval-case): Renamed `eval-when' to
667 `eval-case', everywhere.
669 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
671 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
672 `interaction-evironment'.
673 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
675 (eval-when): New macro.
676 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
677 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
678 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
680 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the
682 (define-module): Simply call `process-define-module' without any
683 fuss (but only on top-level).
684 (named-module-use!): New function.
685 (top-repl): Do not use `define-module'. Use equivalent low-level
688 2001-02-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
690 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Use `primitive-eval' instead of
692 (define-public): Do not use `eval'.
694 2001-02-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
696 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Display the warning to the
697 `current-error-port'.
699 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
701 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
704 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to
705 `and-let-star.scm'. Updated module name as well.
706 * and-let-star-compat.scm: New file, installed as `and-let*.scm'.
707 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced "and-let*.scm" with
709 (install-data-local): Install "and-let-star-compat.scm" as
710 "and-let*.scm", ignoring errors.
711 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute `and-let-star-compat.scm'.
713 2001-01-26 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
715 This patch fixes a problem reported by Martin Grabmueller about
716 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
718 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to
719 conveniently define a group of option interface functions.
721 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
722 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
724 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
726 * boot-9.scm: don't import (ice-9 rdelim) here. it's done
728 * rdelim.scm: export the C primitives too.
729 * documentation.scm: use (ice-9 rdelim).
731 2001-01-21 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
733 * rdelim.scm: new file implementing module (ice-9 rdelim).
734 * ice-9.scm (scm-line-incrementors read-line! read-delimited!
735 read-delimited read-line): moved to rdelim.scm.
736 scm-line-incrementors is not exported.
737 * boot-9.scm: import (ice-9 rdelim) for backwards compatibility,
739 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
740 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
742 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
744 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
745 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
746 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
747 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
748 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
749 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
750 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
752 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
754 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
755 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
757 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
759 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
762 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
764 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
767 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
769 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
771 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
773 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
774 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
775 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
776 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
777 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,

782 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
783 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
784 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
785 make-shared-substring.
787 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
789 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
790 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
791 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
792 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
795 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
797 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
798 and open-output-pipe.
800 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
802 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
803 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
804 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
805 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
806 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
807 Pirotte for the bug report).
808 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
809 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
811 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
813 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
814 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
816 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
818 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
820 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

823 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
826 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
828 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
831 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
833 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
834 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
835 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
837 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
838 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
839 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
840 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
841 actual documentation entries themselves.
843 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
845 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
847 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
849 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
851 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
853 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
854 Convert first argument to a string.
856 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
857 getter-and-setter-syntax,
858 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
859 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
861 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
863 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
865 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
867 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
869 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
871 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
873 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
875 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
876 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
878 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
880 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
883 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

903 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
906 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
908 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
909 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
910 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
911 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
912 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
914 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
916 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
918 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
919 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
921 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
924 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
925 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
926 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
927 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
929 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
931 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.

936 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
937 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
939 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
941 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
942 definition of module-type.
944 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
946 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
948 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
950 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
951 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
953 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
955 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
957 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
959 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
960 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
961 Mikael for the suggestion.
963 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
965 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
966 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
968 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
970 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
973 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
975 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
977 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
979 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
980 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
983 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
984 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
987 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
989 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
990 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
992 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
993 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
994 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
996 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
998 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.

1002 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1003 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1005 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1007 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1008 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1010 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1012 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1013 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1015 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1017 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1019 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1021 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1023 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1027 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1028 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1030 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1032 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1035 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1036 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1037 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1038 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1041 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).

1045 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1047 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1048 (write-all): Removed.
1049 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1050 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1052 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1054 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1055 `proc-documentation'
1057 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1058 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1059 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1060 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1061 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1062 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1063 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1066 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1068 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1070 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1072 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1073 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1074 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1077 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1079 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1080 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1081 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1082 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1083 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1084 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1085 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1087 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1089 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1090 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1092 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1094 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1095 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1097 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1099 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1100 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1101 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1102 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1103 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1104 delete-if! when iterating.
1106 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1108 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1110 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1112 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1114 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1116 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1117 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1118 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1119 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1121 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1123 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1124 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1126 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1128 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1129 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1130 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1131 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1133 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1135 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1136 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1138 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1140 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1141 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1143 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1145 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1148 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1150 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1151 source of the numerous very short changes.
1153 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1155 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1158 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1161 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1163 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1166 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1168 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1169 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1171 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1173 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1176 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1178 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1179 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1180 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1182 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1184 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1185 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1186 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1187 Narazaki for this change.
1189 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1191 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1192 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1195 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1196 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1198 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1200 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1201 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1203 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1205 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1206 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1207 use define-public to export from the module.
1209 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1211 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1212 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1213 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1215 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1217 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1219 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1221 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1222 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1224 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1226 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1228 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1230 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1232 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1234 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1235 long_long uniform vectors.
1237 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1239 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1240 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1242 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1244 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1245 script to create generated files like this one.
1247 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1249 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1250 available before using getpw and getuid.
1251 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1252 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1254 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1255 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1256 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1258 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1259 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1260 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1262 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1263 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1265 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1267 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1269 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1270 than 'exit-debugger.
1272 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1273 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1275 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1277 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1279 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1280 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1281 ("position"): New command.
1282 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1283 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1284 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1285 to return a valid state.)
1286 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1288 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1290 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1291 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1294 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1296 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1297 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1299 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1301 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1303 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1305 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1306 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1308 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1309 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1310 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1312 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1315 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1317 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1318 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1320 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1322 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1324 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1325 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1326 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1327 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1329 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1332 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1333 both forward and backward views of the stack
1334 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1335 Use selector `frame-number';
1336 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1337 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1339 Use readline conditionally.
1341 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1343 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1344 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1345 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1347 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1348 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1351 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1353 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1355 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1357 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1359 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1361 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1363 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1364 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1365 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1366 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1367 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1368 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1369 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1370 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1371 libguile-config-stamp.
1372 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1373 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1374 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1375 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1376 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1378 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1380 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1381 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1382 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1384 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1385 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1386 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1387 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1390 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1392 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1394 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1396 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1398 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1399 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1401 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1403 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1404 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1405 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1406 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1407 objects starting with '#/'.
1409 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1411 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1412 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1413 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1414 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1415 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1416 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1418 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1419 module-modified): New procedures.
1420 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1421 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1423 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1425 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1428 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1430 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1431 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1432 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1434 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1437 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1439 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1440 at multiple calls to read.
1441 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1442 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1443 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1444 continued-lines prompt.
1446 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1447 reading expressions.
1449 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1451 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1452 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1454 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1456 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1457 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1460 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1462 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1463 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1465 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1466 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1467 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1468 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1469 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1472 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1474 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1475 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1477 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1479 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1480 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1481 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1482 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1484 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1486 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1488 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1489 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1490 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1493 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1495 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1496 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1497 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1498 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1499 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1500 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1501 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1502 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1503 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1504 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1505 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1507 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1509 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1510 peeked from the stream.
1511 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1512 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1513 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1515 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1517 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1518 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1520 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1522 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1523 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1524 exiting repl with single control-D.
1526 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1528 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1529 error catching loop after quit received.
1530 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1532 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1533 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1534 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1536 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1537 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1539 * popen.scm: new file.
1541 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1543 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1544 (reverse-iota): removed.
1546 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1548 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1549 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1551 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1553 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1554 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1555 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1556 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1557 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1559 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1561 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1563 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1564 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1566 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1567 Guile's module system.
1569 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1571 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1572 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1573 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1574 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1575 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1576 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1578 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1579 '() when the condition is false.
1581 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1583 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1585 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1587 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1589 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1591 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1592 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1593 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1595 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1597 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1598 argument order for hash-fold.
1600 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1602 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1604 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1605 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1607 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1608 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1609 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1610 has been added to the load path).
1612 Use try-load-module.
1614 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1616 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1617 module between system and user state.
1619 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1621 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1623 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1626 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1628 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1629 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1630 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1632 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1634 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1635 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1636 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1637 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1638 stack frame encountered.
1640 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1641 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1642 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1643 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1646 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1647 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1648 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1649 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
1652 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
1653 define-module switches:
1655 (define-module (foo)
1658 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
1661 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
1662 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
1663 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
1664 module it is a system frame.
1666 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
1667 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
1668 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
1669 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
1670 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
1672 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
1673 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
1674 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
1675 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
1676 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
1677 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
1679 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
1680 status of a module.;
1681 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
1682 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
1684 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
1685 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
1686 closure to the module.
1688 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
1690 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1692 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
1694 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1696 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
1698 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1700 Fix from Russ McManus:
1701 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
1702 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
1703 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
1704 either an optional or required value.
1706 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1708 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
1710 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
1711 of the '() key, not `rest'.
1713 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
1714 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
1715 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
1716 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1718 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1720 * optargs.scm: New file.
1721 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
1722 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
1724 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1726 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
1727 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
1728 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1730 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1732 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
1733 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
1736 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1738 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1740 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1742 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
1743 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
1744 applied to the module itself.
1746 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1748 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
1750 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
1751 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
1753 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1755 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
1757 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1759 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
1761 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1763 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
1764 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
1766 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1768 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
1769 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
1770 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
1771 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
1772 among BINDINGS is referenced.
1773 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
1774 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
1776 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1778 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
1779 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
1781 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1783 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
1784 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
1787 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1789 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
1791 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1793 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
1795 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1797 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
1798 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
1799 adapt to the new hooks.
1801 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1803 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
1804 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
1805 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
1807 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
1808 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
1810 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
1811 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
1812 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
1813 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
1814 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
1815 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
1816 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
1817 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
1818 first to register linked modules.
1820 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
1821 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
1822 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
1824 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
1825 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
1826 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
1827 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
1829 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
1831 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
1834 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
1835 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
1836 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
1838 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1840 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
1841 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
1842 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
1844 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1846 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
1847 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
1848 result of the last form.
1850 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1852 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
1855 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
1857 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
1858 readline-set!: New options interface.
1860 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
1862 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1864 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
1865 at the end of boot-9.scm.
1867 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1869 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
1870 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1872 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1874 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
1875 interactive session.
1876 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
1878 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
1879 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
1881 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1883 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
1885 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1887 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
1888 read line was empty.
1890 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1892 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
1893 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
1895 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
1897 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
1899 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
1900 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
1901 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
1903 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
1904 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
1906 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
1907 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
1908 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
1910 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
1911 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
1912 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
1913 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
1914 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
1915 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
1917 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1919 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1920 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1922 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1924 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
1925 and short vectors #h(...).
1927 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1929 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
1930 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
1931 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
1933 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1935 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
1936 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
1937 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
1939 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1941 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
1942 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
1944 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
1945 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
1946 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
1947 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
1949 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1951 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
1954 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
1955 order to allow the empty list as arg.
1956 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
1957 context with traps enabled.
1959 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1961 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
1963 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
1965 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1967 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
1968 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
1969 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
1970 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
1971 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
1973 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1975 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
1976 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
1978 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1980 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
1982 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1984 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
1986 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1988 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
1990 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1992 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
1993 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
1995 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1997 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
1998 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
1999 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2000 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2003 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2004 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2005 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2007 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2009 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2010 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2011 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2012 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2013 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2014 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2015 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2017 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2019 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2021 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2023 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2024 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2025 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2026 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2027 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2028 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2030 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2032 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2033 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2034 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2037 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2039 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2041 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2043 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2045 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2047 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2050 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2052 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2054 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2056 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2057 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2059 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2061 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2062 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2063 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2064 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2066 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2067 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2069 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2071 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2073 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2075 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2076 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2079 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2080 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2082 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2083 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2084 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2086 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2088 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2090 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2092 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2093 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2095 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2097 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2099 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2101 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2102 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2104 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2106 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2109 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2111 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2112 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2114 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2116 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2118 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2120 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2123 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2125 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2126 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2127 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2128 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2129 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2132 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2134 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2135 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2136 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2138 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2140 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2142 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2143 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2145 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2147 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2148 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2149 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2150 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2151 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2152 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2153 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2156 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2158 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2161 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2163 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2164 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2165 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2166 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2167 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2168 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2170 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2172 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2173 usefully so they will work from a script.
2175 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2177 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2178 neighborhood of the record code.
2180 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2182 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2183 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2184 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2185 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2187 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2189 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2190 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2191 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2193 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2195 Add support for readline function.
2196 * readline.scm: New module.
2197 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2198 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2199 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2201 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2202 repl-reader to use them.
2203 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2205 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).

2245 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2247 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2249 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2251 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2252 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2253 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2254 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2255 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2257 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for

2269 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2271 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2272 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2275 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2277 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2279 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2281 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2283 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2284 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2285 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2286 field a separate argument.
2288 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2290 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>

2307 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2308 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2309 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2311 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2312 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2313 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2314 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2315 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically

2329 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2331 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2332 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2333 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2334 expansion inside the slib module.
2336 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2338 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.

2348 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2350 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2351 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2354 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2356 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2357 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2359 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.

2374 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2376 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2377 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2378 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2379 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2380 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2382 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2383 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2384 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2386 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2387 the syncase interface.
2389 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2391 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2392 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2393 workings of the current module system).
2395 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2397 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2398 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

2407 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2409 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2410 according to the following priorities:
2411 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2412 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2414 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2415 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2416 (new-interpreter): New function.
2418 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2419 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2420 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2422 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2424 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2426 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2428 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

2436 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2438 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2439 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

2444 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2445 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.

2450 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2453 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2454 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
2455 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
2456 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
2457 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2459 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2460 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2462 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2464 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2465 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2467 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2468 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2470 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2472 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2474 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2475 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.

2480 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.

2494 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2496 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2497 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2498 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2500 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2501 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2504 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2505 order to narrow it correctly.
2506 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

2519 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2520 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2522 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2524 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2525 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2526 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2528 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2530 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2533 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2535 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,

2560 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2561 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2562 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2563 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2564 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2565 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2567 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2568 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2569 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2570 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2572 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2574 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2575 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2576 sending in bug reports.
2577 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2578 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2579 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2580 display a warning if the two are different.
2581 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2582 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2583 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

2589 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2591 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2592 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2594 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2595 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2596 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2597 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2598 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2599 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2602 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2603 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2606 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2607 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2609 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2612 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2615 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

2620 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2622 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2623 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2625 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2627 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2628 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2629 to support printing of structures.
2630 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2631 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2632 commented out printing code.
2633 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2634 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".

2643 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2644 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2645 during call to scm-style-repl.
2647 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2649 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2650 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2651 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
2652 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
2653 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
2655 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2657 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
2658 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
2661 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
2663 * regex.scm: New file.
2664 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
2665 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

2670 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
2671 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
2672 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
2674 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>

2679 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2681 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
2682 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
2683 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
2685 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2687 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
2688 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
2691 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2693 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.

2697 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2699 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2701 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
2702 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
2705 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2707 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
2708 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
2709 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
2711 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2713 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
2714 the Scheme code like code yet.
2715 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
2717 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2719 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
2720 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
2721 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
2723 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2725 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
2727 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
2730 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2732 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
2734 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2736 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
2738 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
2739 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
2740 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
2742 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2744 Get 'make dist' to work again.
2745 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
2746 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
2748 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
2750 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
2751 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2753 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2755 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
2758 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2760 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
2762 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2764 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
2765 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
2767 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2769 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
2770 instead of in libguile.
2771 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
2772 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
2774 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2776 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
2778 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
2779 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
2781 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2783 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
2784 sockaddr:port): new functions.
2786 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2788 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
2789 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
2790 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
2791 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
2793 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2795 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
2796 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
2798 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2800 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
2802 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2804 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
2805 keywords and symbols.
2807 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2809 * slib.scm: update read usage.
2811 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
2812 Don't define read-sharp.
2814 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
2815 (read-sharp): removed.
2816 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
2817 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
2819 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2821 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
2823 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
2824 primitive procedure.)
2826 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
2827 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
2829 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2831 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
2833 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2835 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
2837 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2839 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
2841 * (exit): alias for quit.
2843 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2845 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
2846 return the quit args.
2847 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
2848 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
2849 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
2851 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
2853 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2855 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
2857 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
2858 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
2860 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
2861 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
2863 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
2864 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
2867 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2869 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
2871 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
2872 (add-hooks!): New macro.
2873 Change hooks to use these functions.
2875 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
2876 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
2877 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
2879 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
2880 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
2881 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
2882 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
2883 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
2884 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
2885 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
2888 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
2889 and exit-frame exceptions.
2891 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
2892 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
2893 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
2894 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
2895 result; otherwise display "> ".
2896 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
2898 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
2899 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
2900 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
2901 repository version runnable.
2903 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2905 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
2906 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
2907 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
2908 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
2909 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
2910 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
2912 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2914 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
2915 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
2917 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
2919 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
2920 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
2922 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2924 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
2926 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2928 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
2931 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2933 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
2934 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
2936 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2938 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
2941 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2943 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
2944 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
2946 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2948 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
2950 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
2951 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
2952 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
2953 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
2954 dynamic linking of modules.
2955 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
2956 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
2958 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2960 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
2962 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2964 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
2967 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
2968 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
2971 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2973 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
2974 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
2975 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
2977 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2979 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
2980 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
2983 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2985 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
2986 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
2987 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
2989 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2991 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
2992 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
2993 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
2994 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
2996 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
2997 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
2998 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
2999 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3000 (such as the-scm-module).
3002 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3004 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3007 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3009 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3010 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3011 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3013 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3015 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3016 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3017 function, use it accordingly.
3019 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3021 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3022 function of no arguments.
3023 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3024 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3025 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3026 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3027 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3028 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3029 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3030 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3032 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3034 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3035 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3037 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3039 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3040 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3041 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3042 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3043 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3045 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3048 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3049 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3050 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3051 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3053 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3055 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3057 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3058 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3059 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3061 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3064 Added `before-read-hook'.
3066 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3068 (provide): New function.
3070 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3073 (backtrace): New function.
3075 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3076 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3077 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3078 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3079 is found in operator position in a frame.
3081 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3084 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3085 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3086 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3088 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3090 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3092 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3094 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3096 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3098 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3100 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3101 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3103 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3104 so they'll get distributed.
3106 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3107 should see as little clutter as possible.
3108 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3109 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3110 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3112 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3113 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3114 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3115 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3116 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3117 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3118 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3119 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3120 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3121 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3123 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3124 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3126 * test.scm: New file.
3128 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3129 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3130 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3132 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3133 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3135 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3137 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3138 call %load-announce.
3140 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3142 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3143 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3144 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3146 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3148 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3150 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3151 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3152 SCSH (which this isn't).
3154 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3156 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3158 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3160 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3161 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3162 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3164 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3165 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3166 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3167 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3170 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3172 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3174 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3176 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3177 error-catching-loop.
3178 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3179 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3180 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3182 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3183 error-catching-loop.
3185 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3187 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3188 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3189 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3190 should be '(), not #f.
3192 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3193 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3195 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3197 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3198 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3201 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3203 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3204 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3205 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3206 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3208 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3210 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3212 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3214 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3216 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3217 throw-handler-default.
3218 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3220 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3222 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3223 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3225 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3227 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3228 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3229 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3230 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3232 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3234 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3235 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3236 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3237 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3239 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3240 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3241 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3242 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3245 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3247 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3249 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3252 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3255 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3257 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3259 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3260 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3262 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3264 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3266 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3268 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3270 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3271 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3272 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3273 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3274 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3276 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3277 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3278 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3279 they seem redundant.
3280 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3281 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3282 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3283 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3284 directly files starting with "/").
3285 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3286 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3288 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3290 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3292 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3293 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3294 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3295 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3296 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3297 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3298 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3299 robust to just do it in the C code.
3301 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3303 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3304 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3305 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3306 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3307 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3309 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3311 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3312 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3313 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3315 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3317 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3318 system-error, not every kind of error.
3319 (scm-error): new procedure.
3321 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3323 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3325 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3327 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3328 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3329 of args are supplied.
3330 (%%system-errors): removed.
3331 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3332 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3333 %%handle-system-error.
3334 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3335 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3336 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3337 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3339 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3341 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3342 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3343 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3344 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3346 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3348 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3349 the empty list if they are #f.
3350 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3352 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3354 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3356 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3357 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3358 aborting, just the key and subr.
3359 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3360 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3361 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3363 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3365 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3366 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3367 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3368 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3369 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3371 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3373 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3374 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3375 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3376 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3378 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3380 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3381 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3382 initialize %load-path.
3384 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3385 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3387 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3389 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3390 Add the directory named after the version number.
3391 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3392 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3393 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3394 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3395 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3396 (install): Create the above directories.
3397 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3398 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3400 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3402 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3403 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3404 in the Makefile directly.
3405 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3407 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3409 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3410 here, where people expect to find them.
3412 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3414 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3415 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3417 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3419 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3421 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3422 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3424 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3426 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
3427 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3429 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
3430 weak-key-hash-table.
3432 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3434 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3435 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3436 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
3437 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
3438 (%open-file): removed.
3439 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3440 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3442 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3444 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3445 (manifest): Deleted.
3446 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
3447 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3449 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3451 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3452 now that they throw errors directly.
3453 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3454 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
3456 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3458 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
3460 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
3462 * The more things change...
