1 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
3 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
7 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
9 * debugger/ui-client.scm (ui-disable-async-thread,

11 (ui-command-loop): Call ui-disable-async-thread and
12 ui-continue-async-thread.
13 (handle-instruction): Read terminating newline char so it doesn't
14 cause following select to pop immediately.
16 2003-09-25 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
18 * debugger/ui-client.scm, debugger/ui-server.scm: New (work in
19 progress on new debugging front end).
21 2003-09-24 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
23 * debugger.scm (default-default-lazy-handler, debug-on-error):

45 2003-09-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
47 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
48 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
49 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
50 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
51 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
53 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
55 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
56 the obarray, not an empty vector.

61 'format' since the latter will lock the mutex again that we have
63 (format:format-work): Flag multiple '#' as an error.
65 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
67 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
68 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
70 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
72 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
73 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
74 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
76 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
77 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
79 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>

107 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.
109 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-get-handle): Pass only the expected four
110 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
112 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
113 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!

151 * session.scm (apropos): Don't look in duplicates interface.
153 2003-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
155 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers): Make sure the merge-generics
156 and merge-accessors handlers are available also before (oop goops)

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

614 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
615 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
616 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
617 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
619 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
621 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
623 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
624 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
625 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
627 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
629 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have
632 2001-11-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
634 * boot-9.scm (turn-on-debugging): New function, to be used by
635 scm_compile_shell_switches.

640 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
642 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
643 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
644 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
646 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
647 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

651 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
652 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
653 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
654 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
657 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
659 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
662 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
664 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
665 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
666 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
667 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
669 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
671 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
672 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
673 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
676 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
678 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
680 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>
682 * expect.scm: Commentary fix; nfc.

686 2001-09-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
688 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Reference compile-psyntax.scm in
689 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
691 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
693 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
694 the `arglist' procedure property.
695 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
696 present a more detailed argument list.
698 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
700 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
702 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
703 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
706 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
708 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
710 (feature?): Deprecated.

719 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
721 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
722 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
724 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated

728 needed to trick export.
730 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
732 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
734 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

740 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
742 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
743 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
744 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
746 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
748 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
749 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
751 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
753 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
755 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
757 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
761 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
763 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
764 last-command fluid is not yet set.
766 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
768 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
770 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
771 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
772 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
774 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
776 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
777 handle :use-syntax correctly.
779 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
781 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
784 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
786 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
787 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
788 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
789 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
790 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
792 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
794 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
795 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
796 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
798 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
800 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
801 primitives. Thanks Neil!
803 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
805 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
806 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
807 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
808 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
810 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
811 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
812 since there aren't definitions for them.
814 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
815 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
817 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
819 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
820 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
822 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
824 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
825 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
827 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
829 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
830 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
831 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
833 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
835 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
837 * tags.scm: Removed file.
839 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
841 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
842 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
844 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
845 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
846 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
849 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
851 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
852 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
854 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
856 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
857 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
859 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
860 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
861 evaluator trap options.)

865 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
867 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
869 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
871 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
873 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
875 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
877 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
878 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
880 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
883 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
884 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
885 No longer require `pretty-print'.
887 (slib:error): Delete.
888 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
890 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
895 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
899 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
901 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
902 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
903 rdelim) module. See below.
905 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
907 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
908 include-deprecated-features is true.
910 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
912 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
915 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
916 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
917 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
919 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
920 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
921 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
924 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
926 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
927 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
928 variable, not just a visible one.
929 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
930 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
931 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
932 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
933 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
934 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
936 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
938 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
939 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
941 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
943 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
944 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
946 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
948 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
950 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
952 Added exception notice to all files.
954 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
955 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
956 importing bindings once in a while.
958 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
960 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
961 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
962 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
963 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
964 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
965 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
966 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
967 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
969 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
970 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
972 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
974 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
975 fix command so that it works.
977 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
978 to access unbound variables.
980 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
981 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
982 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
983 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
984 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
986 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
988 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
989 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
990 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
991 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
992 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
993 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
994 argument for process-define-module.
995 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
996 arguments for process-use-modules.
997 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
999 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1001 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
1002 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
1003 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
1006 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
1007 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
1008 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
1010 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
1012 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1014 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules

1027 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1029 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1031 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
1032 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
1034 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
1037 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1039 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
1040 * match.scm: Likewise.
1041 * expect.scm: Likewise.
1042 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
1044 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
1046 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
1048 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
1050 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
1051 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
1052 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
1053 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
1054 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
1055 element list when adding "." to it.
1056 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
1057 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
1059 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1061 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
1063 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
1064 now accepts arg; update callers.
1065 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
1066 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
1068 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
1069 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
1070 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
1071 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
1072 `search-documentation-files'.
1073 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
1074 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
1075 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
1077 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
1078 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
1080 (find-documentation): Delete.
1081 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
1082 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.
1084 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1086 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
1087 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.
1088 (use-srfis): New procedure.
1090 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1092 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if
1093 used module's public interface is not available.
1094 No longer call `beautify-user-module!'.
1095 Signal error now also if selected binding not found.
1097 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1099 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
1101 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
1103 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
1105 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
1106 the magical undefined value.
1107 (let-o-k-template): Use `#f' instead of the undefined value as
1108 the default default for bindings.
1110 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to
1111 make-undefined-variable, use `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1112 (root-module-closure): Removed.
1113 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1114 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
1115 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
1116 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1117 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
1118 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
1119 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
1120 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1121 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1122 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1123 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1124 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1125 `set-current-module' call.
1126 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1127 set-current-module. It is redefined later.
1129 * debug.scm: Use `module-set!' instead of `variable-set!' to set
1130 insert `debug-options' into the-root-module.
1131 * format.scm: Likewise, for `format'.
1133 2001-05-15 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1135 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-repl): Call the E
1136 ("eval'er") procedure via call-with-values and call the P

1141 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Reduce feature list to built-in
1144 2001-05-14 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1146 * boot-9.scm (-1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags):
1149 2001-05-11 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1151 * boot-9.scm: Added `cond-expand' (SRFI-0) for portable feature
1154 2001-05-10 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>

1157 `module-public-interface'.
1158 (resolve-interface): Extend to handle selection and renaming in spec.
1159 Arg is now `spec' which can be a simple module name (list of symbols)
1160 or a interface spec.
1161 (symbol-prefix-proc): New proc.
1162 (%autoloader-developer-mode): Delete.
1163 (process-define-module): Use "define-module" in error messages
1164 instead of "defmodule". Factor error into internal proc.
1165 Rewrite `use-module' and `use-syntax' handlers.
1166 Replace some single-arm `if-not' constructs w/ `or'.

1361 make-buffered-input-port.
1363 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

1498 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1499 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1500 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1501 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1502 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1503 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1504 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1506 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1516 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1518 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1521 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1523 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1525 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1527 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1528 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1529 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1530 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,

1543 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1544 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1545 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1546 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1549 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1551 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1552 and open-output-pipe.
1554 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1556 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1557 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1558 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1559 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1560 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1561 Pirotte for the bug report).
1562 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1563 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1565 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1587 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1588 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1589 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1591 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1592 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1593 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1594 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1595 actual documentation entries themselves.
1597 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1623 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1627 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1629 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1630 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1631 even worked... /mdj.
1632 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1634 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS

1660 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1662 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1663 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1664 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1665 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1666 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)

1729 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1731 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1733 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1734 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1737 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1738 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1741 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1743 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1744 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1746 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1747 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1748 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1750 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1752 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1754 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1756 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1757 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1759 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1761 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1762 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1764 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1766 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1767 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1769 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1771 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1773 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1775 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1777 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1779 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1781 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1782 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1784 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1786 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1789 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1790 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1791 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1792 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1795 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1797 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1799 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1801 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1802 (write-all): Removed.
1803 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1804 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1806 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1808 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1809 `proc-documentation'
1811 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1812 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1813 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1814 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1815 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1816 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1817 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1820 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1822 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1824 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1826 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1827 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1828 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1831 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1833 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1834 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1835 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1836 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1837 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1838 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1839 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1841 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1843 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1844 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1846 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1848 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1849 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1851 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1853 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1854 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1855 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1856 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1857 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1858 delete-if! when iterating.
1860 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1862 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1864 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1866 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1868 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1870 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1871 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1872 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1873 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1875 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1877 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1878 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1880 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1882 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1883 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1884 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1885 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1887 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1889 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1890 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1892 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1894 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1895 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1897 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1899 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1902 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1904 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1905 source of the numerous very short changes.
1907 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1909 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1912 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1915 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1917 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1920 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1922 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1923 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1925 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1927 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1930 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1932 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1933 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1934 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1936 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1938 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1939 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1940 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1941 Narazaki for this change.
1943 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1945 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1946 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1949 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1950 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1952 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1954 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1955 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1957 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1959 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1960 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1961 use define-public to export from the module.
1963 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1965 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1966 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1967 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1969 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1971 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1973 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1975 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1976 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1978 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1980 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1982 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1984 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1986 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1988 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1989 long_long uniform vectors.
1991 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1993 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1994 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1996 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1998 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1999 script to create generated files like this one.
2001 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2003 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2004 available before using getpw and getuid.
2005 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2006 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2008 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2009 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2010 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2012 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2013 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2014 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2016 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2017 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2019 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2021 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2023 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2024 than 'exit-debugger.
2026 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2027 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2029 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
2031 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2033 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
2034 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
2035 ("position"): New command.
2036 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2037 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
2038 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
2039 to return a valid state.)
2040 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
2042 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2044 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
2045 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
2048 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2050 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2051 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2053 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2055 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2057 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2059 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2060 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2062 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2063 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2064 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2066 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2069 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2071 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2072 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2074 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2076 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2078 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2079 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2080 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2081 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2083 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2086 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2087 both forward and backward views of the stack
2088 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2089 Use selector `frame-number';
2090 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2091 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2093 Use readline conditionally.
2095 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2097 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2098 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2099 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2101 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2102 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2105 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2107 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2109 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2111 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2113 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2115 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2117 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2118 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2119 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2120 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2121 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2122 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2123 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2124 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2125 libguile-config-stamp.
2126 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2127 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2128 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2129 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2130 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2132 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2134 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2135 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2136 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2138 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2139 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2140 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2141 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2144 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2146 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2148 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2150 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2152 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2153 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2155 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2157 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2158 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2159 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2160 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2161 objects starting with '#/'.
2163 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2165 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2166 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2167 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2168 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2169 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2170 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2172 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2173 module-modified): New procedures.
2174 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2175 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2177 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2179 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2182 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2184 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2185 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2186 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2188 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2191 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2193 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2194 at multiple calls to read.
2195 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2196 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2197 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2198 continued-lines prompt.
2200 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2201 reading expressions.
2203 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2205 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2206 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2208 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2210 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2211 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2214 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2216 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2217 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2219 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2220 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2221 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2222 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2223 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2226 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2228 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2229 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2231 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2233 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2234 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2235 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2236 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2238 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2240 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2242 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2243 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2244 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2247 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2249 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2250 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2251 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2252 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2253 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2254 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2255 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2256 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2257 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2258 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2259 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2261 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2263 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2264 peeked from the stream.
2265 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2266 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2267 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2269 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2271 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2272 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2274 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2276 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2277 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2278 exiting repl with single control-D.
2280 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2282 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2283 error catching loop after quit received.
2284 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2286 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2287 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2288 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2290 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2291 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2293 * popen.scm: new file.
2295 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2297 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2298 (reverse-iota): removed.
2300 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2302 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2303 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2305 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2307 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2308 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2309 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2310 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2311 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2313 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2315 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2317 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2318 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2320 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2321 Guile's module system.
2323 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2325 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2326 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2327 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2328 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2329 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2330 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2332 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2333 '() when the condition is false.
2335 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2337 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2339 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2341 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2343 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2345 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2346 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2347 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2349 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2351 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2352 argument order for hash-fold.
2354 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2356 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2358 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2359 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2361 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2362 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2363 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2364 has been added to the load path).
2366 Use try-load-module.
2368 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2370 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2371 module between system and user state.
2373 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2375 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2377 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2380 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2382 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2383 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2384 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2386 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2388 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2389 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2390 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2391 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2392 stack frame encountered.
2394 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2395 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2396 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2397 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2400 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2401 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2402 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2403 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2406 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2407 define-module switches:
2409 (define-module (foo)
2412 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2415 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2416 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2417 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2418 module it is a system frame.
2420 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2421 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2422 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2423 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2424 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2426 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2427 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2428 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2429 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2430 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2431 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2433 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2434 status of a module.;
2435 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2436 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2438 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2439 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2440 closure to the module.
2442 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2444 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2446 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2448 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2450 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2452 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2454 Fix from Russ McManus:
2455 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2456 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2457 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2458 either an optional or required value.
2460 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2462 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2464 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2465 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2467 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2468 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2469 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2470 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2472 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2474 * optargs.scm: New file.
2475 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2476 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2478 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2480 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2481 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2482 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2484 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2486 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2487 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2490 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2492 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2494 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2496 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2497 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2498 applied to the module itself.
2500 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2502 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2504 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2505 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2507 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2509 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2511 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2513 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2515 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2517 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2518 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2520 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2522 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2523 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2524 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2525 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2526 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2527 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2528 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2530 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2532 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2533 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2535 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2537 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2538 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2541 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2543 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2545 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2547 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2549 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2551 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2552 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2553 adapt to the new hooks.
2555 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2557 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2558 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2559 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2561 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2562 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2564 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2565 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2566 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2567 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2568 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2569 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2570 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2571 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2572 first to register linked modules.
2574 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2575 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2576 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2578 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2579 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2580 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2581 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2583 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2585 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2588 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2589 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2590 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2592 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2594 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2595 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2596 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2598 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2600 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2601 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2602 result of the last form.
2604 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2606 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2609 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2611 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2612 readline-set!: New options interface.
2614 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2616 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2618 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2619 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2621 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2623 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2624 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2626 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2628 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2629 interactive session.
2630 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2632 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2633 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2635 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2637 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2639 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2641 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2642 read line was empty.
2644 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2646 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2647 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2649 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2651 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2653 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2654 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2655 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2657 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2658 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2660 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2661 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2662 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2664 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2665 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2666 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2667 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2668 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2669 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2671 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2673 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2674 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2676 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2678 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2679 and short vectors #h(...).
2681 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2683 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2684 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2685 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2687 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2689 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2690 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2691 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2693 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2695 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2696 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2698 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2699 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2700 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2701 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2703 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2705 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2708 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2709 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2710 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2711 context with traps enabled.
2713 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2715 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2717 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2719 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2721 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2722 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2723 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2724 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2725 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2727 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2729 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2730 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2732 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2734 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2736 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2738 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2740 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2742 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2744 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2746 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2747 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2749 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2751 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2752 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2753 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2754 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2757 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2758 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2759 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2761 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2763 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2764 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2765 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2766 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2767 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2768 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2769 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2771 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2773 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2775 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2777 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2778 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2779 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2780 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2781 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2782 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2784 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2786 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2787 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2788 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2791 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2793 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2795 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2797 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2799 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2801 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2804 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2806 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2808 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2810 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2811 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2813 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2815 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2816 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2817 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2818 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2820 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2821 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2823 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2825 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2827 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2829 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2830 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2833 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2834 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2836 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2837 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2838 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2840 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2842 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2844 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2846 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2847 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2849 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2851 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2853 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2855 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2856 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2858 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2860 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2863 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2865 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2866 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2868 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2870 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2872 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2874 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2877 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2879 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2880 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2881 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2882 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2883 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2886 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2888 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2889 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2890 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2892 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2894 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2896 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2897 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2899 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2901 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2902 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2903 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2904 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2905 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2906 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2907 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2910 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2912 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2915 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2917 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2918 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2919 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2920 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2921 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2922 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2924 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2926 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2927 usefully so they will work from a script.
2929 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2931 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2932 neighborhood of the record code.
2934 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2936 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2937 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2938 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2939 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2941 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2943 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2944 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2945 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2947 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2949 Add support for readline function.
2950 * readline.scm: New module.
2951 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2952 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2953 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2955 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2956 repl-reader to use them.
2957 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2959 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2961 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2963 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2964 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2966 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2968 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2969 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2970 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2972 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2974 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2975 #f, abort terminates the process.
2976 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2977 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2979 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2981 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2982 print-state, throw it away.
2984 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2986 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2989 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2991 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2992 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2993 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2994 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2996 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2997 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2999 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3001 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3003 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3005 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3006 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3007 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3008 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3009 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3011 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3012 distribution and installation.
3013 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3015 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3017 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3019 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3021 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3022 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3023 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3025 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3026 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3029 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3031 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3033 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3035 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3037 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3038 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3039 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3040 field a separate argument.
3042 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3044 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3046 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3048 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3052 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3054 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3056 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3058 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3059 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3060 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3061 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3062 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3063 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3065 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3066 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3067 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3068 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3069 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3072 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3074 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!

3078 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3079 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3081 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3083 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3085 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3086 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3087 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3088 expansion inside the slib module.
3090 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3092 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3093 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.

3098 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3100 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3101 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3102 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3104 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3105 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3108 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3110 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3111 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3113 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3115 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3116 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3117 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3118 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3119 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3120 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3121 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3122 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current

3128 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3130 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3131 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3132 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3133 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3134 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3136 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3137 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3138 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3140 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3141 the syncase interface.
3143 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3145 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3146 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3147 workings of the current module system).
3149 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3151 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3152 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

3157 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
3158 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3159 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.

3163 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3164 according to the following priorities:
3165 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3166 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3168 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3169 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3170 (new-interpreter): New function.
3172 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3173 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3174 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3176 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3178 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3180 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3182 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

3186 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
3188 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
3190 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3192 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3193 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

3198 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3199 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
3200 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
3201 symbols matching regexp.
3203 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
3204 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3207 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3208 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3209 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
3210 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
3211 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3213 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
3214 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3216 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3218 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.

3226 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3228 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
3229 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.

3250 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3251 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3252 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3254 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3255 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3258 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3259 order to narrow it correctly.
3260 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

3267 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3269 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3271 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3273 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3274 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3276 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3278 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3279 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3280 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.

3295 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3297 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:

3301 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
3303 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3305 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
3306 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
3307 notation, instead of #/ notation.
3309 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
3312 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3314 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
3315 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3316 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3317 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3318 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3319 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3321 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3322 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3323 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3324 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3326 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3328 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3329 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3330 sending in bug reports.
3331 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3332 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3333 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3334 display a warning if the two are different.
3335 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3336 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3337 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3339 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3341 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
3343 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3345 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3346 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3348 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3349 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3350 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3351 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3352 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3353 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3356 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3357 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3360 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3361 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3363 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3366 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3369 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3371 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
3374 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3376 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3377 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3379 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3381 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3382 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3383 to support printing of structures.
3384 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3385 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3386 commented out printing code.
3387 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3388 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
3390 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3392 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
3394 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3396 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
3397 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
3398 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3399 during call to scm-style-repl.
3401 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3403 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3404 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3405 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3406 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3407 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3409 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3411 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3412 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3415 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3417 * regex.scm: New file.
3418 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3419 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3421 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3423 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3424 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3425 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3426 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3428 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3430 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3433 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3435 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3436 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3437 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3439 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3441 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3442 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3445 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3447 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3449 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3451 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3453 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3455 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3456 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3459 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3461 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3462 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3463 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3465 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3467 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3468 the Scheme code like code yet.
3469 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3471 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3473 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3474 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3475 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3477 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3479 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3481 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3484 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3486 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3488 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3490 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3492 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3493 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3494 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3496 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3498 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3499 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3500 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3502 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3504 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3505 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3507 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3509 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3512 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3514 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3516 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3518 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3519 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3521 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3523 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3524 instead of in libguile.
3525 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3526 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3528 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3530 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3532 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3533 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3535 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3537 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3538 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3540 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3542 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3543 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3544 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3545 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3547 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3549 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3550 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3552 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3554 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3556 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3558 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3559 keywords and symbols.
3561 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3563 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3565 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3566 Don't define read-sharp.
3568 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3569 (read-sharp): removed.
3570 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3571 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3573 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3575 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3577 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3578 primitive procedure.)
3580 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3581 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3583 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3585 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3587 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3589 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3591 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3593 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3595 * (exit): alias for quit.
3597 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3599 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3600 return the quit args.
3601 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3602 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3603 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3605 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3607 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3609 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3611 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3612 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3614 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3615 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3617 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3618 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3621 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3623 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3625 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3626 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3627 Change hooks to use these functions.
3629 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3630 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3631 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3633 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3634 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3635 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3636 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3637 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3638 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3639 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3642 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3643 and exit-frame exceptions.
3645 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3646 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3647 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3648 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3649 result; otherwise display "> ".
3650 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3652 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3653 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3654 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3655 repository version runnable.
3657 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3659 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3660 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3661 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3662 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3663 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3664 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3666 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3668 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3669 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3671 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3673 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3674 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3676 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3678 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3680 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3682 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3685 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3687 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3688 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3690 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3692 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3695 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3697 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3698 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3700 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3702 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3704 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3705 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3706 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3707 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3708 dynamic linking of modules.
3709 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3710 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3712 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3714 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3716 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3718 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3721 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3722 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3725 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3727 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3728 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3729 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3731 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3733 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3734 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3737 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3739 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3740 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3741 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3743 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3745 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3746 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3747 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3748 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3750 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3751 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3752 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3753 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3754 (such as the-scm-module).
3756 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3758 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3761 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3763 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3764 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3765 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3767 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3769 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3770 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3771 function, use it accordingly.
3773 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3775 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3776 function of no arguments.
3777 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3778 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3779 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3780 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3781 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3782 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3783 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3784 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3786 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3788 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3789 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3791 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3793 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3794 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3795 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3796 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3797 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3799 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3802 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3803 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3804 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3805 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3807 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3809 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3811 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3812 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3813 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3815 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3818 Added `before-read-hook'.
3820 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3822 (provide): New function.
3824 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3827 (backtrace): New function.
3829 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3830 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3831 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3832 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3833 is found in operator position in a frame.
3835 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3838 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3839 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3840 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3842 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3844 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3846 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3848 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3850 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3852 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3854 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3855 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3857 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3858 so they'll get distributed.
3860 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3861 should see as little clutter as possible.
3862 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3863 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3864 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3866 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3867 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3868 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3869 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3870 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3871 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3872 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3873 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3874 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3875 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3877 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3878 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3880 * test.scm: New file.
3882 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3883 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3884 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3886 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3887 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3889 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3891 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3892 call %load-announce.
3894 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3896 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3897 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3898 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3900 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3902 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3904 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3905 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3906 SCSH (which this isn't).
3908 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3910 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3912 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3914 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3915 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3916 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3918 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3919 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3920 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3921 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3924 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3926 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3928 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3930 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3931 error-catching-loop.
3932 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3933 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3934 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3936 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3937 error-catching-loop.
3939 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3941 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3942 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3943 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3944 should be '(), not #f.
3946 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3947 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3949 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3951 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3952 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3955 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3957 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3958 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3959 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3960 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3962 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3964 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3966 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3968 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3970 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3971 throw-handler-default.
3972 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3974 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3976 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3977 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3979 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3981 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3982 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3983 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3984 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3986 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3988 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3989 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3990 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3991 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3993 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3994 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3995 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3996 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3999 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4001 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4003 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4006 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4009 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4011 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4013 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4014 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4016 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4018 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4020 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4022 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4024 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4025 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4026 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4027 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4028 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4030 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4031 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4032 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4033 they seem redundant.
4034 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4035 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4036 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4037 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4038 directly files starting with "/").
4039 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4040 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4042 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4044 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4046 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4047 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4048 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4049 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4050 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4051 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4052 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4053 robust to just do it in the C code.
4055 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4057 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4058 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4059 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4060 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4061 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4063 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4065 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4066 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4067 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4069 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4071 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4072 system-error, not every kind of error.
4073 (scm-error): new procedure.
4075 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4077 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4079 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4081 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4082 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4083 of args are supplied.
4084 (%%system-errors): removed.
4085 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4086 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4087 %%handle-system-error.
4088 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4089 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4090 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4091 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4093 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4095 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4096 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4097 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4098 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4100 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4102 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4103 the empty list if they are #f.
4104 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4106 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4108 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4110 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4111 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4112 aborting, just the key and subr.
4113 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4114 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4115 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4117 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4119 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4120 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4121 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4122 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4123 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4125 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4127 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4128 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4129 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4130 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4132 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4134 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4135 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4136 initialize %load-path.
4138 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4139 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4141 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4143 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4144 Add the directory named after the version number.
4145 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4146 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4147 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4148 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4149 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4150 (install): Create the above directories.
4151 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4152 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4154 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4156 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4157 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4158 in the Makefile directly.
4159 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4161 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4163 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4164 here, where people expect to find them.
4166 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4168 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4169 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4171 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4173 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4175 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
4176 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4178 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4180 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
4181 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
4183 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
4184 weak-key-hash-table.
4186 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4188 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
4189 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
4190 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
4191 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
4192 (%open-file): removed.
4193 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
4194 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
4196 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4198 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
4199 (manifest): Deleted.
4200 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
4201 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
4203 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4205 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
4206 now that they throw errors directly.
4207 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
4208 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
4210 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4212 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
4214 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
4216 * The more things change...
