511 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
512 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a

640 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
641 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
643 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
645 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
646 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
648 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

658 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
660 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
661 last-command fluid is not yet set.
663 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
665 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
667 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
668 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
669 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
671 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
673 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
674 handle :use-syntax correctly.
676 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
678 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
681 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
683 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
684 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.

686 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
687 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
689 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

692 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
693 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
695 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
697 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
698 primitives. Thanks Neil!
700 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
702 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
703 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
704 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
705 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
707 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
708 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
709 since there aren't definitions for them.
711 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
712 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
714 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
716 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
717 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
719 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
721 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
722 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
724 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
726 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
727 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
728 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
730 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
732 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
734 * tags.scm: Removed file.
736 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
738 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
739 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
741 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
742 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
743 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
746 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
748 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
749 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
751 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
753 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
754 Don't reset trace-level to 0.

772 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
774 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
775 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
777 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
780 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
781 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
782 No longer require `pretty-print'.
784 (slib:error): Delete.
785 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
787 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
792 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
796 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
798 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
799 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
800 rdelim) module. See below.
802 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
804 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
805 include-deprecated-features is true.
807 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
809 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
812 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
813 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
814 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
816 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
817 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
818 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
821 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
823 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
824 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
825 variable, not just a visible one.
826 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
827 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
828 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
829 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
830 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
831 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
833 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
835 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
836 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
838 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
840 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
841 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
843 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
845 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
847 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
849 Added exception notice to all files.
851 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
852 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
853 importing bindings once in a while.
855 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
857 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
858 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
859 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
860 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
861 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
862 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
863 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
864 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
866 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
867 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
869 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
871 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
872 fix command so that it works.
874 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
875 to access unbound variables.
877 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
878 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
879 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
880 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
881 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
883 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
885 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
886 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
887 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
888 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
889 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
890 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
891 argument for process-define-module.
892 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
893 arguments for process-use-modules.

898 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
899 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
900 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
903 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
904 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
905 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
907 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
909 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
911 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules

923 (process-define-module): Use `spec' instead of `module-name' when
924 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
926 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
928 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
929 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!

934 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
936 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
937 * match.scm: Likewise.
938 * expect.scm: Likewise.
939 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
941 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
943 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
945 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
947 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
948 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
949 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
950 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
951 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
952 element list when adding "." to it.
953 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
954 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
956 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
958 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
960 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
961 now accepts arg; update callers.
962 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
963 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
965 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
966 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
967 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
968 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
969 `search-documentation-files'.
970 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
971 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
972 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
974 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
975 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
977 (find-documentation): Delete.
978 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
979 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.
981 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
983 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
984 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.

987 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
989 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if

998 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
1000 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
1002 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
1003 the magical undefined value.

1005 the default default for bindings.
1007 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to

1009 (root-module-closure): Removed.
1010 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1011 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
1012 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
1013 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1014 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
1015 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
1016 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
1017 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1018 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1019 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1020 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1021 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1022 `set-current-module' call.
1023 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1024 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

1064 (process-use-modules): Arg is now `module-interface-specs',
1065 which is passed through to `resolve-interface' as before; nfc.
1066 (named-module-use!, top-repl): Abstraction maintenance: Use
1069 2001-05-06 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>

1254 buffered input procedure. Does not assume that a newline
1255 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
1257 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
1258 make-buffered-input-port.
1260 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1262 * match.scm: Don't export defstruct. Use (unquote defstruct) instead.
1264 2001-03-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1318 `eval-case', everywhere.
1320 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1322 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
1323 `interaction-evironment'.
1324 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
1326 (eval-when): New macro.
1327 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
1328 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
1329 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on

1355 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to
1356 `and-let-star.scm'. Updated module name as well.
1357 * and-let-star-compat.scm: New file, installed as `and-let*.scm'.
1358 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced "and-let*.scm" with
1360 (install-data-local): Install "and-let-star-compat.scm" as
1361 "and-let*.scm", ignoring errors.
1362 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute `and-let-star-compat.scm'.
1364 2001-01-26 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1366 This patch fixes a problem reported by Martin Grabmueller about
1367 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
1369 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to

1372 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
1373 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
1375 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>

1395 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1396 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1397 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1398 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1399 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1400 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1401 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1403 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1405 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1406 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1408 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1410 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1413 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1415 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1418 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1420 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1422 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1424 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1425 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1426 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1427 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1428 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,

1433 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1434 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1435 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1436 make-shared-substring.
1438 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1440 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1441 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1442 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1443 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1446 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1448 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1449 and open-output-pipe.
1451 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1453 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1454 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1455 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1456 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1457 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1458 Pirotte for the bug report).
1459 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1460 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1462 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1464 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1482 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1484 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1485 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1486 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1488 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1489 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1490 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1491 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1492 actual documentation entries themselves.
1494 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1496 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1498 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1502 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1510 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)

1516 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1518 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1520 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1524 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1526 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1527 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1528 even worked... /mdj.
1529 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1531 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1534 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1557 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1559 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1560 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1561 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1562 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1563 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1565 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1567 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1569 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1570 provided by libguile/modules.c.)

1621 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1624 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1656 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1658 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1659 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1661 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1663 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1664 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1666 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1698 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1699 (write-all): Removed.

1705 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1706 `proc-documentation'
1708 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of

1710 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1711 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1712 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1713 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1714 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive

1730 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1731 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1732 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1733 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1734 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1735 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1736 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1738 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1740 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1741 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1743 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1745 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1746 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1748 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1750 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1751 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1752 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1753 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1754 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1755 delete-if! when iterating.
1757 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1759 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1761 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1763 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1765 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1767 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1768 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1769 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1770 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1772 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1774 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1775 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1777 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1779 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1780 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1781 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1782 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1784 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1786 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1787 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1789 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1791 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1792 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1794 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1796 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1799 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1801 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1802 source of the numerous very short changes.
1804 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1806 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1809 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1812 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1814 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1817 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1819 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1820 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1822 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1824 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1827 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1829 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1830 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1831 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1833 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1835 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1836 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1837 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1838 Narazaki for this change.
1840 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1842 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1843 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1846 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1847 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1849 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1851 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1852 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1854 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1856 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1857 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1858 use define-public to export from the module.
1860 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1862 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1863 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1864 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1866 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1868 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1870 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1872 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1873 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1875 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1877 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1879 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1881 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1883 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1885 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1886 long_long uniform vectors.
1888 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1890 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1891 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1893 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1895 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1896 script to create generated files like this one.
1898 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1900 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1901 available before using getpw and getuid.
1902 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1903 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1905 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1906 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1907 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1909 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1910 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1911 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1913 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1914 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1916 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1918 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1920 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1921 than 'exit-debugger.
1923 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1924 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1926 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1928 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1930 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1931 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1932 ("position"): New command.
1933 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1934 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1935 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1936 to return a valid state.)
1937 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1939 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1941 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1942 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1945 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1947 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1948 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1950 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1952 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1954 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1956 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1957 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1959 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1960 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1961 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1963 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1966 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1968 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1969 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1971 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1973 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1975 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1976 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1977 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1978 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1980 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1983 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1984 both forward and backward views of the stack
1985 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1986 Use selector `frame-number';
1987 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1988 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1990 Use readline conditionally.
1992 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1994 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1995 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1996 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1998 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1999 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2002 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2004 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2006 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2008 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2010 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2012 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2014 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2015 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2016 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2017 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2018 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2019 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2020 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2021 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2022 libguile-config-stamp.
2023 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2024 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2025 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2026 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2027 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2029 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2031 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2032 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2033 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2035 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2036 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2037 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2038 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2041 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2043 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2045 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2047 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2049 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2050 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2052 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2054 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2055 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2056 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2057 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2058 objects starting with '#/'.
2060 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2062 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2063 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2064 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2065 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2066 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2067 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2069 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2070 module-modified): New procedures.
2071 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2072 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2074 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2076 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2079 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2081 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2082 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2083 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2085 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2088 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2090 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2091 at multiple calls to read.
2092 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2093 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2094 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2095 continued-lines prompt.
2097 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2098 reading expressions.
2100 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2102 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2103 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2105 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2107 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2108 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2111 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2113 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2114 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2116 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2117 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2118 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2119 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2120 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2123 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2125 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2126 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2128 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2130 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2131 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2132 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2133 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2135 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2137 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2139 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2140 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2141 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2144 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2146 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2147 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2148 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2149 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2150 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2151 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2152 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2153 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2154 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2155 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2156 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2158 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2160 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2161 peeked from the stream.
2162 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2163 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2164 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2166 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2168 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2169 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2171 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2173 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2174 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2175 exiting repl with single control-D.
2177 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2179 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2180 error catching loop after quit received.
2181 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2183 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2184 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2185 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2187 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2188 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2190 * popen.scm: new file.
2192 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2194 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2195 (reverse-iota): removed.
2197 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2199 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2200 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2202 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2204 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2205 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2206 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2207 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2208 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2210 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2212 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2214 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2215 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2217 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2218 Guile's module system.
2220 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2222 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2223 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2224 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2225 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2226 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2227 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2229 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2230 '() when the condition is false.
2232 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2234 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2236 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2238 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2240 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2242 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2243 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2244 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2246 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2248 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2249 argument order for hash-fold.
2251 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2253 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2255 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2256 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2258 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2259 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2260 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2261 has been added to the load path).
2263 Use try-load-module.
2265 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2267 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2268 module between system and user state.
2270 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2272 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2274 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2277 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2279 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2280 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2281 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2283 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2285 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2286 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2287 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2288 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2289 stack frame encountered.
2291 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2292 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2293 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2294 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2297 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2298 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2299 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2300 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2303 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2304 define-module switches:
2306 (define-module (foo)
2309 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2312 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2313 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2314 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2315 module it is a system frame.
2317 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2318 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2319 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2320 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2321 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2323 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2324 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2325 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2326 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2327 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2328 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2330 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2331 status of a module.;
2332 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2333 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2335 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2336 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2337 closure to the module.
2339 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2341 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2343 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2345 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2347 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2349 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2351 Fix from Russ McManus:
2352 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2353 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2354 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2355 either an optional or required value.
2357 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2359 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2361 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2362 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2364 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2365 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2366 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2367 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2369 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2371 * optargs.scm: New file.
2372 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2373 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2375 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2377 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2378 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2379 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2381 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2383 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2384 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2387 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2389 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2391 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2393 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2394 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2395 applied to the module itself.
2397 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2399 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2401 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2402 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2404 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2406 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2408 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2410 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2412 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2414 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2415 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2417 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2419 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2420 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2421 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2422 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2423 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2424 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2425 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2427 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2429 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2430 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2432 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2434 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2435 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2438 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2440 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2442 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2444 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2446 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2448 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2449 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2450 adapt to the new hooks.
2452 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2454 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2455 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2456 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2458 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2459 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2461 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2462 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2463 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2464 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2465 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2466 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2467 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2468 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2469 first to register linked modules.
2471 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2472 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2473 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2475 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2476 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2477 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2478 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2480 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2482 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2485 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2486 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2487 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2489 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2491 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2492 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2493 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2495 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2497 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2498 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2499 result of the last form.
2501 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2503 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2506 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2508 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2509 readline-set!: New options interface.
2511 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2513 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2515 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2516 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2518 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2520 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2521 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2523 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2525 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2526 interactive session.
2527 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2529 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2530 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2532 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2534 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2536 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2538 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2539 read line was empty.
2541 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2543 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2544 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2546 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2548 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2550 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2551 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2552 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2554 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2555 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2557 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2558 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2559 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2561 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2562 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2563 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2564 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2565 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2566 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2568 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2570 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2571 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2573 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2575 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2576 and short vectors #h(...).
2578 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2580 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2581 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2582 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2584 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2586 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2587 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2588 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2590 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2592 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2593 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2595 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2596 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2597 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2598 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2600 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2602 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2605 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2606 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2607 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2608 context with traps enabled.
2610 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2612 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2614 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2616 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2618 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2619 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2620 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2621 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2622 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2624 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2626 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2627 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2629 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2631 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2633 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2635 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2637 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2639 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2641 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2643 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2644 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2646 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2648 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2649 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2650 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2651 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2654 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2655 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2656 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2658 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2660 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2661 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2662 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2663 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2664 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2665 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2666 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2668 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2670 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2672 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2674 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2675 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2676 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2677 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2678 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2679 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2681 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2683 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2684 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2685 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2688 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2690 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2692 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2694 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2696 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2698 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2701 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2703 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2705 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2707 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2708 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2710 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2712 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2713 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2714 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2715 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2717 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2718 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2720 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2722 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2724 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2726 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2727 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2730 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2731 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2733 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2734 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2735 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2737 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2739 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2741 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2743 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2744 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2746 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2748 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2750 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2752 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2753 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2755 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2757 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2760 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2762 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2763 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2765 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2767 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2769 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2771 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2774 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2776 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2777 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2778 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2779 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2780 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2783 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2785 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2786 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2787 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2789 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2791 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2793 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2794 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2796 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2798 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2799 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2800 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2801 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2802 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2803 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2804 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2807 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2809 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2812 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2814 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2815 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2816 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2817 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2818 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2819 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2821 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2823 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2824 usefully so they will work from a script.
2826 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2828 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2829 neighborhood of the record code.
2831 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2833 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2834 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2835 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2836 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2838 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2840 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2841 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2842 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2844 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2846 Add support for readline function.
2847 * readline.scm: New module.
2848 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2849 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2850 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2852 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2853 repl-reader to use them.
2854 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2856 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2858 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2860 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2861 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.

2865 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2866 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2867 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2869 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2871 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2872 #f, abort terminates the process.
2873 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2874 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2876 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2878 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2879 print-state, throw it away.
2881 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2883 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2886 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2888 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2889 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2890 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2891 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2893 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2894 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2896 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2898 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2900 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2902 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2903 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2904 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2905 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2906 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2908 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2909 distribution and installation.

2912 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2914 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2916 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2918 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2919 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2920 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2922 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2923 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2926 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2928 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2930 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2932 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2934 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2935 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2936 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2937 field a separate argument.
2939 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2941 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2943 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2945 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty

2955 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
2956 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2957 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2958 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2959 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2960 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2962 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2963 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2964 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2965 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2966 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically

2980 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2982 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2983 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2984 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2985 expansion inside the slib module.
2987 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2989 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.

2998 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2999 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3001 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3002 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3005 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3007 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3008 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3010 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3012 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.

3025 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3027 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3028 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3029 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3030 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3031 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3033 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3034 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3035 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3037 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3038 the syncase interface.
3040 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3042 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3043 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3044 workings of the current module system).
3046 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3048 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3049 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

3060 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3061 according to the following priorities:
3062 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3063 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3065 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3066 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3067 (new-interpreter): New function.
3069 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3070 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3071 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3073 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3075 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3077 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3079 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

3087 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3089 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3090 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

3095 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3096 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.

3101 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3104 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3105 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3106 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
3107 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
3108 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3110 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,

3149 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3151 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3152 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at

3175 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3176 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call

3213 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3214 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3215 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3216 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3218 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3219 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3220 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3221 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3223 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3225 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3226 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3227 sending in bug reports.
3228 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3229 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3230 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3231 display a warning if the two are different.
3232 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3233 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.

3247 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3248 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3249 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3250 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3253 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3254 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3257 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3258 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3260 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated

3280 to support printing of structures.
3281 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3282 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3283 commented out printing code.
3284 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.

3295 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3296 during call to scm-style-repl.
3298 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3300 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3301 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3302 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3303 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3304 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3306 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3308 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3309 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3312 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3314 * regex.scm: New file.
3315 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3316 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3318 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3320 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3321 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3322 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3323 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3325 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3327 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3330 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3332 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3333 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3334 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3336 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3338 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3339 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3342 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3344 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3346 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3348 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3350 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3352 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3353 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3356 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3358 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3359 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3360 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3362 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3364 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3365 the Scheme code like code yet.
3366 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3368 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3370 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3371 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3372 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3374 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3376 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3378 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3381 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3383 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3385 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3387 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3389 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3390 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3391 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3393 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3395 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3396 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3397 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3399 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3401 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3402 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3404 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3406 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3409 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3411 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3413 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3415 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3416 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3418 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3420 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3421 instead of in libguile.
3422 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3423 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3425 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3427 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3429 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3430 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3432 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3434 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3435 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3437 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3439 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3440 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3441 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3442 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3444 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3446 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3447 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3449 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3451 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3453 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3455 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3456 keywords and symbols.
3458 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3460 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3462 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3463 Don't define read-sharp.
3465 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3466 (read-sharp): removed.
3467 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3468 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3470 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3472 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3474 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3475 primitive procedure.)
3477 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3478 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3480 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3482 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3484 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3486 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3488 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3490 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3492 * (exit): alias for quit.
3494 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3496 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3497 return the quit args.
3498 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3499 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3500 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3502 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3504 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3506 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3508 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3509 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3511 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3512 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3514 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3515 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3518 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3520 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3522 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3523 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3524 Change hooks to use these functions.
3526 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3527 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3528 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3530 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3531 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3532 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3533 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3534 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3535 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3536 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3539 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3540 and exit-frame exceptions.
3542 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3543 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3544 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3545 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3546 result; otherwise display "> ".
3547 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3549 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3550 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3551 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3552 repository version runnable.
3554 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3556 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3557 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3558 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3559 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3560 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3561 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3563 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3565 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3566 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3568 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3570 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3571 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3573 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3575 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3577 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3579 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3582 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3584 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3585 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3587 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3589 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3592 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3594 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3595 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3597 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3599 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3601 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3602 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3603 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3604 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3605 dynamic linking of modules.
3606 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3607 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3609 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3611 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3613 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3615 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3618 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3619 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3622 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3624 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3625 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3626 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3628 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3630 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3631 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3634 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3636 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3637 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3638 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3640 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3642 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3643 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3644 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3645 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3647 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3648 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3649 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3650 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3651 (such as the-scm-module).
3653 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3655 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3658 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3660 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3661 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3662 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3664 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3666 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3667 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3668 function, use it accordingly.
3670 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3672 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3673 function of no arguments.
3674 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3675 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3676 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3677 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3678 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3679 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3680 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3681 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3683 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3685 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3686 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3688 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3690 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3691 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3692 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3693 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3694 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3696 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3699 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3700 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3701 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3702 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3704 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3706 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3708 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3709 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3710 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3712 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3715 Added `before-read-hook'.
3717 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3719 (provide): New function.
3721 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3724 (backtrace): New function.
3726 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3727 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3728 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3729 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3730 is found in operator position in a frame.
3732 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3735 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3736 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3737 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3739 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3741 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3743 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3745 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3747 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3749 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3751 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3752 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3754 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3755 so they'll get distributed.
3757 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3758 should see as little clutter as possible.
3759 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3760 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3761 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3763 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3764 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3765 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3766 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3767 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3768 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3769 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3770 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3771 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3772 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3774 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3775 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3777 * test.scm: New file.
3779 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3780 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3781 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3783 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3784 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3786 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3788 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3789 call %load-announce.
3791 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3793 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3794 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3795 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3797 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3799 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3801 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3802 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3803 SCSH (which this isn't).
3805 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3807 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3809 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3811 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3812 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3813 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3815 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3816 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3817 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3818 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3821 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3823 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3825 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3827 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3828 error-catching-loop.
3829 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3830 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3831 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3833 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3834 error-catching-loop.
3836 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3838 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3839 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3840 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3841 should be '(), not #f.
3843 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3844 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3846 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3848 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3849 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3852 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3854 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3855 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3856 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3857 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3859 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3861 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3863 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3865 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3867 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3868 throw-handler-default.
3869 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3871 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3873 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3874 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3876 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3878 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3879 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3880 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3881 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3883 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3885 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3886 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3887 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3888 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3890 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3891 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3892 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3893 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3896 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3898 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3900 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3903 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3906 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3908 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3910 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3911 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3913 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3915 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3917 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3919 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3921 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3922 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3923 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3924 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3925 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3927 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3928 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3929 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3930 they seem redundant.
3931 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3932 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3933 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3934 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3935 directly files starting with "/").
3936 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3937 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3939 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3941 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3943 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3944 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3945 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3946 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3947 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3948 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3949 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3950 robust to just do it in the C code.
3952 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3954 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3955 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3956 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3957 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3958 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3960 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3962 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3963 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3964 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3966 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3968 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3969 system-error, not every kind of error.
3970 (scm-error): new procedure.
3972 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3974 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3976 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3978 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3979 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3980 of args are supplied.
3981 (%%system-errors): removed.
3982 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3983 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3984 %%handle-system-error.
3985 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3986 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3987 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3988 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3990 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3992 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3993 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3994 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3995 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3997 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3999 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4000 the empty list if they are #f.
4001 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4003 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4005 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4007 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4008 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4009 aborting, just the key and subr.
4010 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4011 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4012 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4014 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4016 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4017 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4018 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4019 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4020 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4022 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4024 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4025 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4026 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4027 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4029 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4031 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4032 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4033 initialize %load-path.
4035 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4036 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4038 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4040 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4041 Add the directory named after the version number.
4042 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4043 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4044 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4045 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4046 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4047 (install): Create the above directories.
4048 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4049 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4051 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4053 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4054 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4055 in the Makefile directly.
4056 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4058 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4060 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4061 here, where people expect to find them.
4063 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4065 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4066 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4068 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4070 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4072 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
4073 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4075 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4077 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
4078 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
4080 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
4081 weak-key-hash-table.
4083 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4085 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
4086 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
4087 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
4088 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
4089 (%open-file): removed.
4090 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
4091 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
4093 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4095 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
4096 (manifest): Deleted.
4097 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
4098 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
4100 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4102 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
4103 now that they throw errors directly.
4104 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
4105 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
4107 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4109 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
4111 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
4113 * The more things change...
