5 2002-04-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>
7 * gap-buffer.scm: New file.
9 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add gap-buffer.scm.

24 * Makefile.am: Update path to pre-inst-guile automake frag.
26 * boot-9.scm: Comment grammar fixes; nfc.
27 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
29 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
31 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
32 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
33 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
35 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
37 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>
39 * regex.scm: Add commentary; nfc.
41 2002-02-05 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

45 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
47 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
49 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
50 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
51 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
52 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
54 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
56 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
58 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
59 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
60 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
62 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
64 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have
67 2001-11-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
69 * boot-9.scm (turn-on-debugging): New function, to be used by
70 scm_compile_shell_switches.
72 * debug.scm: Do not enable debugging and recording of source
75 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
77 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
78 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
79 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
81 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
82 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

86 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
87 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
88 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
89 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
92 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
94 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
97 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
99 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
100 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
101 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
102 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
104 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
106 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
107 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
108 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
111 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
113 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
115 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>
117 * expect.scm: Commentary fix; nfc.
119 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): Fix typo.
121 2001-09-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
123 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Reference compile-psyntax.scm in
124 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
126 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
128 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
129 the `arglist' procedure property.
130 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
131 present a more detailed argument list.
133 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
135 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
137 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
138 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
141 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
143 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
145 (feature?): Deprecated.
147 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,

154 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
156 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
157 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
159 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated
162 * format.scm: Remove deprecated definition of format that was
163 needed to trick export.
165 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
167 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
169 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
171 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
173 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
175 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
177 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
178 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
179 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
181 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
183 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
184 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
186 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
188 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
190 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
192 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
196 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
198 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
199 last-command fluid is not yet set.
201 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
203 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
205 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
206 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
207 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
209 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
211 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
212 handle :use-syntax correctly.
214 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
216 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
219 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
221 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
222 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
223 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
224 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
225 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
227 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
229 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
230 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
231 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
233 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
235 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
236 primitives. Thanks Neil!
238 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
240 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
241 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
242 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
243 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
245 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
246 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
247 since there aren't definitions for them.
249 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
250 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
252 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
254 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
255 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
257 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
259 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
260 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
262 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
264 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
265 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
266 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
268 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
270 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
272 * tags.scm: Removed file.
274 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
276 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
277 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
279 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
280 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
281 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
284 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
286 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
287 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
289 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
291 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
292 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
294 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
295 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
296 evaluator trap options.)

300 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
302 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
304 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
306 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
308 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
310 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
312 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
313 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
315 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
318 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
319 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
320 No longer require `pretty-print'.
322 (slib:error): Delete.
323 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
325 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
330 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
334 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
336 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
337 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
338 rdelim) module. See below.
340 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
342 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
343 include-deprecated-features is true.
345 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
347 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
350 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
351 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
352 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
354 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
355 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
356 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
359 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
361 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
362 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
363 variable, not just a visible one.
364 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
365 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
366 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
367 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
368 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
369 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
371 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
373 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
374 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
376 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
378 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
379 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
381 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
383 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
385 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
387 Added exception notice to all files.
389 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
390 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
391 importing bindings once in a while.
393 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
395 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
396 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
397 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
398 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
399 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
400 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
401 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
402 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
404 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
405 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
407 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
409 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
410 fix command so that it works.
412 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
413 to access unbound variables.
415 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
416 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
417 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
418 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
419 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
421 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
423 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
424 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
425 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
426 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
427 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
428 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
429 argument for process-define-module.
430 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
431 arguments for process-use-modules.
432 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
434 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
436 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
437 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
438 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
441 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
442 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
443 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
445 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
447 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
449 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules
451 (cond-expand): Use feature information associated with modules.
453 2001-05-21 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
455 * boot-9.scm (use-srfis): Do not extend the srfi-0 feature list.
456 (cond-expand-provide): New procedure.
458 2001-05-22 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
460 * boot-9.scm (define-module): Return the new module.
461 (process-define-module): Use `spec' instead of `module-name' when
462 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
464 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
466 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
467 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
469 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
472 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
474 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
475 * match.scm: Likewise.
476 * expect.scm: Likewise.
477 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
479 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
481 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
483 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
485 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
486 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
487 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
488 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
489 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
490 element list when adding "." to it.
491 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
492 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
494 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
496 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
498 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
499 now accepts arg; update callers.
500 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
501 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
503 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
504 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
505 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
506 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
507 `search-documentation-files'.
508 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
509 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
510 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
512 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
513 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
515 (find-documentation): Delete.
516 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
517 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.
519 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
521 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
522 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.
523 (use-srfis): New procedure.
525 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
527 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if
528 used module's public interface is not available.
529 No longer call `beautify-user-module!'.
530 Signal error now also if selected binding not found.
532 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
534 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
536 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
538 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
540 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
541 the magical undefined value.
542 (let-o-k-template): Use `#f' instead of the undefined value as
543 the default default for bindings.
545 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to
546 make-undefined-variable, use `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
547 (root-module-closure): Removed.
548 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
549 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
550 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
551 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
552 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
553 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
554 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
555 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
556 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
557 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
558 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
559 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
560 `set-current-module' call.
561 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
562 set-current-module. It is redefined later.
564 * debug.scm: Use `module-set!' instead of `variable-set!' to set
565 insert `debug-options' into the-root-module.
566 * format.scm: Likewise, for `format'.
568 2001-05-15 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
570 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-repl): Call the E
571 ("eval'er") procedure via call-with-values and call the P

933 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
934 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
935 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
936 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
937 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
938 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
939 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
941 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

953 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
956 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
958 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
960 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
962 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
963 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
964 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
965 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
966 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,

976 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>

984 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
986 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
987 and open-output-pipe.
989 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
991 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
992 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
993 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
994 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
995 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
996 Pirotte for the bug report).
997 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
998 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1000 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1002 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1023 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1024 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1026 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1027 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1028 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1029 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1030 actual documentation entries themselves.

1062 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1064 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1065 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1066 even worked... /mdj.
1067 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1069 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS

1097 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1098 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1099 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1100 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1101 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)

1154 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1155 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1157 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1159 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1162 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1164 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1166 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1168 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1169 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1172 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1173 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1176 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1178 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1179 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1181 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1182 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1183 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1185 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1187 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1189 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1191 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1192 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1194 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1196 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1197 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1199 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1201 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1202 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1204 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1206 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1208 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1210 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1212 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1214 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1216 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1217 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1219 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1221 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1224 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1225 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1226 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1227 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1230 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1232 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1234 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1236 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1237 (write-all): Removed.
1238 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1239 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1241 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1243 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1244 `proc-documentation'
1246 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1247 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1248 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1249 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1250 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1251 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1252 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1255 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1257 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1259 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1261 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1262 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1263 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1266 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1268 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1269 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1270 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1271 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1272 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1273 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1274 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1276 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1278 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1279 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1281 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1283 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1284 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1286 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1288 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1289 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1290 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1291 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1292 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1293 delete-if! when iterating.
1295 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1297 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1299 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1301 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1303 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1305 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1306 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1307 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1308 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1310 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1312 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1313 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1315 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1317 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1318 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1319 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1320 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1322 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1324 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1325 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1327 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1329 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1330 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1332 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1334 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1337 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1339 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1340 source of the numerous very short changes.
1342 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1344 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1347 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1350 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1352 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1355 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1357 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1358 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1360 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1362 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1365 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1367 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1368 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1369 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1371 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1373 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1374 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1375 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1376 Narazaki for this change.
1378 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1380 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1381 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1384 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1385 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1387 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1389 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1390 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1392 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1394 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1395 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1396 use define-public to export from the module.
1398 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1400 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1401 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1402 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1404 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1406 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1408 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1410 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1411 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1413 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1415 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1417 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1419 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1421 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1423 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1424 long_long uniform vectors.
1426 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1428 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1429 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1431 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1433 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1434 script to create generated files like this one.
1436 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1438 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1439 available before using getpw and getuid.
1440 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1441 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1443 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1444 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1445 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1447 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1448 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1449 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1451 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1452 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1454 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1456 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1458 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1459 than 'exit-debugger.
1461 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1462 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1464 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1466 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1468 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1469 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1470 ("position"): New command.
1471 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1472 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1473 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1474 to return a valid state.)
1475 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1477 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1479 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1480 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1483 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1485 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1486 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1488 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1490 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1492 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1494 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1495 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1497 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1498 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1499 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1501 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1504 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1506 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1507 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1509 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1511 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1513 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1514 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1515 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1516 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1518 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1521 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1522 both forward and backward views of the stack
1523 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1524 Use selector `frame-number';
1525 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1526 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1528 Use readline conditionally.
1530 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1532 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1533 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1534 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1536 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1537 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1540 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1542 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1544 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1546 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1548 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1550 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1552 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1553 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1554 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1555 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1556 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1557 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1558 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1559 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1560 libguile-config-stamp.
1561 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1562 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1563 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1564 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1565 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1567 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1569 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1570 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1571 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1573 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1574 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1575 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1576 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1579 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1581 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1583 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1585 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1587 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1588 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1590 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1592 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1593 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1594 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1595 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1596 objects starting with '#/'.
1598 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1600 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1601 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1602 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1603 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1604 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1605 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1607 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1608 module-modified): New procedures.
1609 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1610 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1612 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1614 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1617 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1619 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1620 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1621 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1623 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1626 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1628 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1629 at multiple calls to read.
1630 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1631 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1632 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1633 continued-lines prompt.
1635 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1636 reading expressions.
1638 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1640 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1641 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1643 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1645 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1646 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1649 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1651 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1652 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1654 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1655 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1656 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1657 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1658 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1661 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1663 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1664 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1666 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1668 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1669 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1670 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1671 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1673 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1675 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1677 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1678 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1679 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1682 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1684 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1685 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1686 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1687 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1688 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1689 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1690 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1691 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1692 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1693 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1694 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1696 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1698 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1699 peeked from the stream.
1700 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1701 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1702 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1704 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1706 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1707 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1709 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1711 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1712 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1713 exiting repl with single control-D.
1715 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1717 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1718 error catching loop after quit received.
1719 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1721 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1722 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1723 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1725 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1726 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1728 * popen.scm: new file.
1730 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1732 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1733 (reverse-iota): removed.
1735 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1737 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1738 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1740 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1742 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1743 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1744 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1745 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1746 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1748 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1750 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1752 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1753 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1755 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1756 Guile's module system.
1758 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1760 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1761 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1762 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1763 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1764 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1765 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1767 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1768 '() when the condition is false.
1770 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1772 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1774 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1776 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1778 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1780 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1781 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1782 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1784 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1786 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1787 argument order for hash-fold.
1789 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1791 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1793 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1794 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1796 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1797 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1798 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1799 has been added to the load path).
1801 Use try-load-module.
1803 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1805 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1806 module between system and user state.
1808 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1810 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1812 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1815 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1817 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1818 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1819 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1821 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1823 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1824 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1825 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1826 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1827 stack frame encountered.
1829 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1830 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1831 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1832 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1835 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1836 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1837 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1838 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
1841 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
1842 define-module switches:
1844 (define-module (foo)
1847 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
1850 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
1851 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
1852 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
1853 module it is a system frame.
1855 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
1856 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
1857 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
1858 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
1859 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
1861 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
1862 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
1863 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
1864 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
1865 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
1866 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
1868 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
1869 status of a module.;
1870 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
1871 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
1873 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
1874 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
1875 closure to the module.
1877 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
1879 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1881 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
1883 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1885 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
1887 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1889 Fix from Russ McManus:
1890 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
1891 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
1892 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
1893 either an optional or required value.
1895 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1897 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
1899 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
1900 of the '() key, not `rest'.
1902 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
1903 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
1904 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
1905 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1907 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1909 * optargs.scm: New file.
1910 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
1911 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
1913 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1915 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
1916 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
1917 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1919 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1921 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
1922 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
1925 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1927 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1929 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1931 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
1932 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
1933 applied to the module itself.
1935 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1937 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
1939 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
1940 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
1942 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1944 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
1946 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1948 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
1950 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1952 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
1953 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
1955 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1957 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
1958 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
1959 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
1960 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
1961 among BINDINGS is referenced.
1962 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
1963 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
1965 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1967 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
1968 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
1970 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1972 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
1973 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
1976 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1978 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
1980 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1982 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
1984 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1986 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
1987 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
1988 adapt to the new hooks.
1990 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1992 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
1993 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
1994 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
1996 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
1997 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
1999 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2000 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2001 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2002 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2003 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2004 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2005 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2006 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2007 first to register linked modules.
2009 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2010 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2011 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2013 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2014 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2015 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2016 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2018 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2020 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2023 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2024 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2025 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2027 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2029 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2030 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2031 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2033 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2035 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2036 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2037 result of the last form.
2039 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2041 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2044 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2046 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2047 readline-set!: New options interface.
2049 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2051 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2053 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2054 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2056 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2058 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2059 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2061 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2063 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2064 interactive session.
2065 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2067 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2068 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2070 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2072 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2074 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2076 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2077 read line was empty.
2079 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2081 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2082 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2084 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2086 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2088 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2089 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2090 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2092 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2093 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2095 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2096 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2097 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2099 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2100 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2101 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2102 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2103 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2104 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2106 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2108 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2109 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2111 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2113 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2114 and short vectors #h(...).
2116 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2118 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2119 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2120 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2122 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2124 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2125 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2126 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2128 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2130 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2131 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2133 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2134 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2135 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2136 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2138 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2140 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2143 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2144 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2145 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2146 context with traps enabled.
2148 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2150 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2152 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2154 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2156 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2157 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2158 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2159 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2160 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2162 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2164 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2165 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2167 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2169 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2171 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2173 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2175 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2177 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2179 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2181 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2182 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2184 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2186 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2187 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2188 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2189 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2192 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2193 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2194 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2196 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2198 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2199 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2200 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2201 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2202 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2203 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2204 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2206 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2208 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2210 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2212 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2213 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2214 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2215 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2216 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2217 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2219 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2221 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2222 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2223 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2226 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2228 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2230 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2232 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2234 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2236 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2239 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2241 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2243 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2245 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2246 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2248 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2250 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2251 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2252 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2253 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2255 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2256 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2258 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2260 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2262 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2264 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2265 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2268 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2269 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2271 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2272 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2273 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2275 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2277 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2279 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2281 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2282 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2284 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2286 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2288 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2290 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2291 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2293 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2295 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2298 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2300 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2301 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2303 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2305 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2307 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2309 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2312 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2314 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2315 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2316 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2317 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2318 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2321 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2323 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2324 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2325 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2327 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2329 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2331 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2332 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2334 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2336 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2337 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2338 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2339 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2340 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2341 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2342 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2345 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2347 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2350 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2352 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2353 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2354 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2355 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2356 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2357 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2359 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2361 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2362 usefully so they will work from a script.
2364 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2366 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2367 neighborhood of the record code.
2369 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2371 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2372 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2373 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2374 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2376 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2378 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2379 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2380 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2382 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2384 Add support for readline function.
2385 * readline.scm: New module.
2386 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2387 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2388 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2390 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2391 repl-reader to use them.
2392 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2394 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2396 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2398 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2399 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2401 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2403 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2404 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2405 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2407 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2409 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2410 #f, abort terminates the process.
2411 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2412 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2414 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2416 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2417 print-state, throw it away.
2419 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2421 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2424 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2426 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2427 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2428 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2429 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2431 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2432 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2434 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2436 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2438 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2440 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2441 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2442 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2443 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2444 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2446 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2447 distribution and installation.
2448 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2450 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2452 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2454 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2456 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2457 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2458 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2460 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2461 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2464 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2466 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2468 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2470 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2472 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2473 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2474 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2475 field a separate argument.
2477 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2479 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2481 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2483 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
2487 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2489 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
2491 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2493 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
2494 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2495 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2496 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2497 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2498 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2500 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2501 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2502 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2503 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2504 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2507 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2509 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!

2513 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
2514 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
2516 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2518 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2520 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2521 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2522 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2523 expansion inside the slib module.
2525 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2527 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
2528 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.

2533 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
2535 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
2536 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2537 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2539 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2540 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2543 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2545 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2546 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2548 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
2550 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
2551 (make-module): Modified initialization.
2552 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
2553 mutator for module-associated transformer.
2554 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
2555 `scm:eval-transformer'.
2556 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
2557 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
2559 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)

2563 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2565 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2566 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2567 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2568 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2569 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2571 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2572 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2573 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2575 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2576 the syncase interface.
2578 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2580 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2581 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2582 workings of the current module system).
2584 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2586 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2587 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
2590 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2592 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
2593 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
2594 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.

2598 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2599 according to the following priorities:
2600 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2601 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2603 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2604 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2605 (new-interpreter): New function.
2607 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2608 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2609 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2611 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2613 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2615 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2617 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
2619 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2621 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
2623 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
2625 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2627 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2628 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
2631 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2633 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2634 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
2635 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
2636 symbols matching regexp.
2638 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
2639 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2642 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2643 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
2644 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
2645 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
2646 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2648 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2649 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2651 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2653 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2654 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2656 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2657 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.

2661 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2663 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2664 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
2665 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
2667 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
2669 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
2670 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
2671 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
2673 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2675 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
2676 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.

2683 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2685 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2686 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2687 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2689 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2690 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2693 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2694 order to narrow it correctly.
2695 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
2697 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2699 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
2700 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
2702 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2704 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
2706 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2708 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2709 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2711 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2713 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2714 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2715 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2717 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

2730 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2732 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
2733 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
2736 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
2738 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2740 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
2741 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
2742 notation, instead of #/ notation.
2744 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
2747 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2749 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2750 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2751 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2752 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2753 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2754 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2756 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2757 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2758 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2759 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2761 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2763 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2764 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2765 sending in bug reports.
2766 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2767 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2768 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2769 display a warning if the two are different.
2770 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2771 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2772 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2774 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2776 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
2778 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2780 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2781 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2783 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2784 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2785 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2786 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2787 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2788 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2791 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2792 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2795 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2796 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2798 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2801 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2804 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2806 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
2809 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2811 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2812 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2814 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2816 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2817 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2818 to support printing of structures.
2819 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2820 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2821 commented out printing code.
2822 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2823 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
2825 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2827 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
2829 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2831 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
2832 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2833 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2834 during call to scm-style-repl.
2836 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2838 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2839 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2840 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
2841 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
2842 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
2844 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2846 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
2847 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
2850 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
2852 * regex.scm: New file.
2853 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
2854 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2856 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2858 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
2859 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
2860 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
2861 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
2863 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2865 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
2868 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2870 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
2871 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
2872 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
2874 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2876 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
2877 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
2880 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2882 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2884 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2886 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2888 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2890 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
2891 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
2894 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2896 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
2897 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
2898 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
2900 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2902 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
2903 the Scheme code like code yet.
2904 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
2906 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2908 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
2909 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
2910 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
2912 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2914 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
2916 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
2919 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2921 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
2923 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2925 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
2927 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
2928 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
2929 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
2931 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2933 Get 'make dist' to work again.
2934 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
2935 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
2937 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
2939 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
2940 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2942 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2944 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
2947 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2949 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
2951 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2953 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
2954 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
2956 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2958 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
2959 instead of in libguile.
2960 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
2961 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
2963 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2965 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
2967 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
2968 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
2970 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2972 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
2973 sockaddr:port): new functions.
2975 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2977 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
2978 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
2979 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
2980 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
2982 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2984 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
2985 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
2987 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2989 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
2991 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2993 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
2994 keywords and symbols.
2996 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2998 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3000 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3001 Don't define read-sharp.
3003 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3004 (read-sharp): removed.
3005 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3006 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3008 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3010 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3012 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3013 primitive procedure.)
3015 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3016 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3018 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3020 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3022 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3024 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3026 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3028 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3030 * (exit): alias for quit.
3032 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3034 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3035 return the quit args.
3036 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3037 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3038 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3040 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3042 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3044 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3046 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3047 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3049 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3050 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3052 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3053 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3056 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3058 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3060 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3061 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3062 Change hooks to use these functions.
3064 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3065 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3066 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3068 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3069 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3070 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3071 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3072 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3073 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3074 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3077 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3078 and exit-frame exceptions.
3080 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3081 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3082 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3083 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3084 result; otherwise display "> ".
3085 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3087 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3088 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3089 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3090 repository version runnable.
3092 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3094 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3095 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3096 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3097 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3098 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3099 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3101 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3103 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3104 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3106 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3108 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3109 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3111 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3113 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3115 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3117 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3120 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3122 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3123 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3125 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3127 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3130 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3132 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3133 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3135 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3137 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3139 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3140 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3141 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3142 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3143 dynamic linking of modules.
3144 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3145 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3147 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3149 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3151 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3153 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3156 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3157 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3160 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3162 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3163 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3164 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3166 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3168 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3169 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3172 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3174 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3175 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3176 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3178 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3180 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3181 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3182 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3183 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3185 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3186 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3187 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3188 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3189 (such as the-scm-module).
3191 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3193 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3196 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3198 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3199 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3200 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3202 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3204 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3205 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3206 function, use it accordingly.
3208 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3210 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3211 function of no arguments.
3212 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3213 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3214 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3215 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3216 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3217 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3218 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3219 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3221 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3223 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3224 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3226 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3228 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3229 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3230 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3231 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3232 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3234 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3237 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3238 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3239 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3240 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3242 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3244 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3246 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3247 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3248 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3250 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3253 Added `before-read-hook'.
3255 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3257 (provide): New function.
3259 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3262 (backtrace): New function.
3264 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3265 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3266 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3267 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3268 is found in operator position in a frame.
3270 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3273 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3274 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3275 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3277 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3279 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3281 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3283 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3285 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3287 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3289 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3290 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3292 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3293 so they'll get distributed.
3295 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3296 should see as little clutter as possible.
3297 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3298 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3299 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3301 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3302 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3303 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3304 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3305 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3306 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3307 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3308 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3309 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3310 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3312 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3313 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3315 * test.scm: New file.
3317 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3318 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3319 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3321 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3322 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3324 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3326 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3327 call %load-announce.
3329 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3331 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3332 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3333 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3335 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3337 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3339 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3340 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3341 SCSH (which this isn't).
3343 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3345 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3347 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3349 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3350 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3351 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3353 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3354 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3355 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3356 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3359 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3361 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3363 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3365 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3366 error-catching-loop.
3367 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3368 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3369 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3371 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3372 error-catching-loop.
3374 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3376 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3377 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3378 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3379 should be '(), not #f.
3381 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3382 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3384 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3386 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3387 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3390 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3392 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3393 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3394 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3395 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3397 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3399 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3401 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3403 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3405 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3406 throw-handler-default.
3407 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3409 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3411 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3412 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3414 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3416 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3417 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3418 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3419 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3421 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3423 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3424 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3425 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3426 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3428 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3429 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3430 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3431 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3434 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3436 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3438 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3441 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3444 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3446 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3448 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3449 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3451 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3453 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3455 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3457 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3459 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3460 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3461 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3462 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3463 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3465 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3466 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3467 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3468 they seem redundant.
3469 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3470 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3471 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3472 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3473 directly files starting with "/").
3474 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3475 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3477 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3479 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3481 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3482 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3483 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3484 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3485 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3486 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3487 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3488 robust to just do it in the C code.
3490 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3492 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3493 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3494 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3495 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3496 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3498 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3500 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3501 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3502 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3504 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3506 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3507 system-error, not every kind of error.
3508 (scm-error): new procedure.
3510 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3512 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3514 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3516 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3517 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3518 of args are supplied.
3519 (%%system-errors): removed.
3520 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3521 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3522 %%handle-system-error.
3523 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3524 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3525 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3526 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3528 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3530 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3531 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3532 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3533 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3535 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3537 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3538 the empty list if they are #f.
3539 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3541 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3543 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3545 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3546 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3547 aborting, just the key and subr.
3548 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3549 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3550 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3552 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3554 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3555 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3556 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3557 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3558 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3560 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3562 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3563 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3564 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3565 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3567 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3569 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3570 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3571 initialize %load-path.
3573 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3574 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3576 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3578 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3579 Add the directory named after the version number.
3580 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3581 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3582 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3583 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3584 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3585 (install): Create the above directories.
3586 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3587 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3589 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3591 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3592 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3593 in the Makefile directly.
3594 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3596 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3598 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3599 here, where people expect to find them.
3601 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3603 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3604 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3606 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3608 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3610 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3611 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3613 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3615 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
3616 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3618 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
3619 weak-key-hash-table.
3621 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3623 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3624 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3625 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
3626 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
3627 (%open-file): removed.
3628 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3629 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3631 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3633 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3634 (manifest): Deleted.
3635 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
3636 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3638 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3640 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3641 now that they throw errors directly.
3642 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3643 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
3645 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3647 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
3649 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
3651 * The more things change...
