1 2002-11-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
3 * format.scm (format): Use 'monitor' properly. Not the definition
4 needs to be restricted, the actual function needs to be.
6 2002-11-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
8 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): Fix to "simplification"
11 * debugger/breakpoints/source.scm: Enable source property
12 recording when module is loaded.

17 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): Simplify code-generation
20 * debugger/command-loop.scm (read-and-dispatch-command): Import
21 set-readline-prompt dynamically if we need to. (Previous
22 arrangement didn't work if this module was loaded before (ice-9
25 2002-11-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
27 * format.scm (format): Wrap a monitor around format:format since
28 it is not thread-safe.
30 2002-10-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
32 * threads.scm (%thread-handler): Explicitely return '#f'. This
33 value will be returned by join-thread.
35 2002-10-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

76 should be unnecessary now.
78 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
80 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in

101 2002-10-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
103 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use "1" instead of "%deliver-signals" to
104 limit the signal stack.
106 2002-09-15 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
108 * boot-9.scm (feature?): Added deprecation message.
110 2002-09-14 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>

185 * boot-9.scm: Comment grammar fixes; nfc.
186 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
188 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
190 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
191 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
192 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
194 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
196 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

204 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
206 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
208 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
209 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
210 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
211 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
213 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
215 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
217 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
218 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
219 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
221 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
223 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

240 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
241 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

245 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
246 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
247 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
248 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
251 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
253 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
256 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
258 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
259 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
260 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
261 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
263 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
265 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
266 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
267 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
270 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
272 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
274 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>

285 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
287 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
288 the `arglist' procedure property.
289 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to

294 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
296 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
297 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
300 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
302 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
304 (feature?): Deprecated.
306 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,
307 eval-in-module, split-c-module-name,
308 (convert-c-registered-modules, registered-modules,
309 register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation, init-dynamic-module,

311 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
312 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
313 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
315 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
316 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
318 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated
321 * format.scm: Remove deprecated definition of format that was
322 needed to trick export.
324 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
326 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
328 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

334 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
336 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
337 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
338 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
340 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
342 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
343 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
345 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
347 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
349 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
351 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
355 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
357 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
358 last-command fluid is not yet set.
360 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
362 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
364 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
365 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
366 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
368 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
370 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
371 handle :use-syntax correctly.
373 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
375 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
378 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
380 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
381 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
382 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
383 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
384 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
386 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
388 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
389 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
390 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
392 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
394 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
395 primitives. Thanks Neil!
397 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
399 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
400 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
401 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
402 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
404 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
405 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
406 since there aren't definitions for them.
408 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
409 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
411 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
413 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
414 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
416 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
418 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
419 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
421 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
423 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
424 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
425 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
427 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
429 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
431 * tags.scm: Removed file.
433 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
435 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
436 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
438 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
439 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
440 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
443 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
445 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
446 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
448 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
450 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
451 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
453 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
454 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
455 evaluator trap options.)

459 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
461 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
463 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
465 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
467 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
469 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
471 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
472 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
474 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
477 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
478 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
479 No longer require `pretty-print'.
481 (slib:error): Delete.
482 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
484 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
489 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
493 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
495 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
496 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
497 rdelim) module. See below.
499 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
501 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
502 include-deprecated-features is true.
504 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
506 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
509 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
510 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
511 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
513 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
514 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
515 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
518 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
520 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
521 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
522 variable, not just a visible one.
523 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
524 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
525 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
526 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
527 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
528 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
530 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
532 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
533 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
535 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
537 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
538 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
540 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
542 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
544 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
546 Added exception notice to all files.
548 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
549 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
550 importing bindings once in a while.
552 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
554 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
555 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
556 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
557 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
558 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
559 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
560 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
561 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
563 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
564 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
566 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
568 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
569 fix command so that it works.
571 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
572 to access unbound variables.
574 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
575 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
576 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
577 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
578 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
580 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
582 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
583 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
584 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
585 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
586 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
587 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
588 argument for process-define-module.
589 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
590 arguments for process-use-modules.
591 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
593 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
595 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using

952 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
954 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
955 make-buffered-input-port.
957 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

1021 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit

1025 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
1026 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
1028 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the

1031 fuss (but only on top-level).
1032 (named-module-use!): New function.

1092 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1093 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1094 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1095 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1096 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1097 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1098 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1100 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1102 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1103 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1105 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1107 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1110 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1112 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1115 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1117 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1119 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1121 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1122 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1123 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1124 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1125 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
1126 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,

1130 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1131 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1132 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1133 make-shared-substring.
1135 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1137 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1138 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1139 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1140 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1143 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1145 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1146 and open-output-pipe.
1148 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1150 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1151 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1152 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1153 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1154 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1155 Pirotte for the bug report).
1156 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1157 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1159 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1161 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1182 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1183 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1185 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1186 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1187 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1188 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1189 actual documentation entries themselves.
1191 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1193 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1195 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1197 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
1199 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1204 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
1205 getter-and-setter-syntax,
1206 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
1207 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
1209 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.

1213 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1215 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1217 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1219 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1221 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1223 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1224 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1225 even worked... /mdj.
1226 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1228 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1231 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1233 * psyntax.ss (set!): Added generalized set! support to core syntax

1254 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1256 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1257 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1258 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1259 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1260 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1262 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1264 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1266 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1267 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1269 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1272 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1273 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1274 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1275 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1277 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1279 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.

1284 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1285 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1287 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1289 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1290 definition of module-type.
1292 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1294 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1296 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1298 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1299 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1301 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1303 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1305 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1307 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1308 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1309 Mikael for the suggestion.
1311 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1313 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1314 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1316 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1318 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1321 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1323 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1325 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1327 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1328 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1331 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1332 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1335 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1337 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1338 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1340 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1341 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1342 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1344 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1346 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1348 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1350 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1351 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1353 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1355 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1356 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1358 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1360 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1361 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1363 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1365 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1367 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1369 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1371 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1375 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1376 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1378 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1380 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1383 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1384 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1385 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1386 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1389 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1391 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1393 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1395 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1396 (write-all): Removed.
1397 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1398 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1400 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1402 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1403 `proc-documentation'
1405 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1406 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1407 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1408 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1409 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1410 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1411 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1414 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1416 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1418 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1420 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1421 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1422 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1425 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1427 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1428 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1429 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1430 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1431 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1432 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1433 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1435 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1437 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1438 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1440 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1442 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1443 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1445 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1447 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1448 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1449 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1450 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1451 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1452 delete-if! when iterating.
1454 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1456 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1458 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1460 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1462 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1464 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1465 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1466 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1467 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1469 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1471 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1472 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1474 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1476 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1477 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1478 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1479 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1481 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1483 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1484 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1486 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1488 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1489 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1491 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1493 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1496 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1498 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1499 source of the numerous very short changes.
1501 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1503 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1506 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1509 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1511 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1514 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1516 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1517 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1519 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1521 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1524 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1526 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1527 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1528 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1530 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1532 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1533 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1534 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1535 Narazaki for this change.
1537 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1539 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1540 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1543 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1544 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1546 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1548 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1549 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1551 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1553 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1554 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1555 use define-public to export from the module.
1557 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1559 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1560 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1561 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1563 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1565 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1567 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1569 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1570 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1572 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1574 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1576 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.

1580 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1582 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1583 long_long uniform vectors.
1585 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1587 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1588 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1590 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1592 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1593 script to create generated files like this one.
1595 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1597 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1598 available before using getpw and getuid.
1599 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1600 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1602 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1603 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1604 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1606 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1607 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1608 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1610 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1611 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1613 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1615 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1617 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1618 than 'exit-debugger.

1644 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1645 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1647 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1649 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1651 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1653 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1654 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1656 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1657 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1658 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1660 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1663 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1665 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1666 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1668 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1670 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1672 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1673 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1674 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1675 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1677 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1680 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1681 both forward and backward views of the stack
1682 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1683 Use selector `frame-number';
1684 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1685 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1687 Use readline conditionally.
1689 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1691 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1692 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1693 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1695 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1696 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1699 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

1711 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1712 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1713 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1714 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1715 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1716 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1717 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1718 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1719 libguile-config-stamp.
1720 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1721 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1722 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1723 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1724 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1726 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1728 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1729 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1730 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1732 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1733 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1734 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1735 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1738 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1740 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1742 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1744 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1746 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1747 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1749 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1751 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1752 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1753 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1754 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1755 objects starting with '#/'.
1757 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1759 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1760 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1761 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1762 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1763 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1764 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1766 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1767 module-modified): New procedures.
1768 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1769 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1771 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1773 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1776 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1778 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1779 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1780 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1782 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1785 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1787 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1788 at multiple calls to read.
1789 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1790 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1791 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1792 continued-lines prompt.
1794 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1795 reading expressions.
1797 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1799 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1800 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1802 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1804 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1805 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1808 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1810 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1811 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1813 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1814 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1815 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1816 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1817 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1820 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1822 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1823 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1825 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1827 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1828 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1829 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1830 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1832 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1834 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1836 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1837 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1838 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1841 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1843 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1844 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1845 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1846 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1847 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1848 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1849 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1850 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1851 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1852 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1853 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1855 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1857 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1858 peeked from the stream.
1859 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1860 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1861 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1863 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1865 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1866 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1868 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1870 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1871 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1872 exiting repl with single control-D.
1874 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1876 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1877 error catching loop after quit received.
1878 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1880 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1881 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1882 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1884 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1885 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1887 * popen.scm: new file.
1889 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1891 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1892 (reverse-iota): removed.
1894 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1896 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1897 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1899 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1901 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1902 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1903 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1904 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1905 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1907 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1909 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1911 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1912 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1914 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1915 Guile's module system.
1917 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1919 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1920 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1921 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1922 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1923 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1924 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1926 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1927 '() when the condition is false.
1929 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1931 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1933 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1935 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1937 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1939 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1940 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1941 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1943 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1945 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1946 argument order for hash-fold.
1948 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1950 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1952 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1953 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1955 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1956 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1957 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1958 has been added to the load path).
1960 Use try-load-module.
1962 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1964 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1965 module between system and user state.
1967 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1969 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1971 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1974 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1976 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1977 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1978 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1980 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1982 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1983 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1984 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1985 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1986 stack frame encountered.
1988 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1989 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1990 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1991 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1994 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1995 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1996 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1997 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2000 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2001 define-module switches:
2003 (define-module (foo)
2006 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2009 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2010 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2011 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2012 module it is a system frame.
2014 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2015 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2016 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2017 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2018 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2020 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2021 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2022 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2023 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2024 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2025 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2027 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2028 status of a module.;
2029 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2030 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2032 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2033 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2034 closure to the module.
2036 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2038 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2040 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2042 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2044 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2046 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2048 Fix from Russ McManus:
2049 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2050 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2051 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2052 either an optional or required value.
2054 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2056 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2058 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2059 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2061 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2062 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2063 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2064 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2066 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2068 * optargs.scm: New file.
2069 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2070 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2072 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2074 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2075 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2076 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2078 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2080 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2081 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2084 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2086 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2088 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2090 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2091 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2092 applied to the module itself.
2094 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2096 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2098 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2099 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2101 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2103 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2105 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2107 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2109 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2111 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2112 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2114 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2116 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2117 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2118 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2119 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2120 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2121 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2122 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2124 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2126 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2127 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2129 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2131 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2132 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2135 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2137 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2139 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2141 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2143 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2145 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2146 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2147 adapt to the new hooks.
2149 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2151 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2152 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2153 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2155 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2156 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2158 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2159 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2160 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2161 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2162 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2163 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2164 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2165 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2166 first to register linked modules.
2168 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2169 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2170 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2172 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2173 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2174 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2175 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2177 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2179 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2182 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2183 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2184 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2186 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2188 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2189 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2190 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2192 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2194 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2195 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2196 result of the last form.
2198 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2200 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2203 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2205 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2206 readline-set!: New options interface.
2208 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2210 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2212 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2213 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2215 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2217 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2218 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2220 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2222 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2223 interactive session.
2224 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2226 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2227 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2229 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2231 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2233 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2235 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2236 read line was empty.
2238 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2240 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2241 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2243 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2245 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2247 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2248 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2249 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2251 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2252 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2254 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2255 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2256 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2258 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2259 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2260 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2261 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2262 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2263 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2265 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2267 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2268 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2270 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2272 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2273 and short vectors #h(...).
2275 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2277 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2278 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2279 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2281 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2283 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2284 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2285 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2287 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2289 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2290 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2292 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2293 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2294 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2295 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2297 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2299 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2302 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2303 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2304 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2305 context with traps enabled.
2307 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2309 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2311 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2313 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2315 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2316 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2317 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2318 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2319 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2321 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2323 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2324 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2326 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2328 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2330 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2332 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2334 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2336 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2338 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2340 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2341 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2343 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2345 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2346 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2347 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2348 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2351 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2352 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2353 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2355 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2357 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2358 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2359 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2360 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2361 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2362 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2363 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2365 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2367 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2369 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2371 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2372 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2373 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2374 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2375 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2376 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2378 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2380 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2381 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2382 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2385 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2387 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2389 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2391 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2393 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2395 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2398 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2400 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2402 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2404 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2405 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2407 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2409 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2410 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2411 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2412 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2414 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2415 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2417 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2419 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2421 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2423 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2424 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2427 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2428 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2430 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2431 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2432 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2434 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2436 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2438 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2440 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2441 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2443 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2445 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2447 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2449 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2450 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2452 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2454 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2457 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2459 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2460 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2462 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2464 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2466 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2468 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2471 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2473 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2474 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2475 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2476 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2477 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2480 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2482 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2483 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2484 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2486 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2488 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2490 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2491 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2493 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2495 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2496 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2497 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2498 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2499 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2500 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2501 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2504 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2506 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2509 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2511 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2512 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2513 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2514 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2515 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2516 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2518 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2520 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2521 usefully so they will work from a script.
2523 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2525 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2526 neighborhood of the record code.
2528 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2530 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2531 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2532 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2533 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2535 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2537 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2538 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2539 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2541 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2543 Add support for readline function.
2544 * readline.scm: New module.
2545 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2546 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2547 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2549 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2550 repl-reader to use them.
2551 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2553 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2555 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2557 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2558 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2560 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2562 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2563 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2564 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2566 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2568 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2569 #f, abort terminates the process.
2570 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2571 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2573 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2575 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2576 print-state, throw it away.
2578 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2580 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2583 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2585 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2586 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2587 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2588 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2590 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2591 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2593 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2595 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2597 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2599 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2600 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2601 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2602 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2603 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2605 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2606 distribution and installation.
2607 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2609 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2611 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2613 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2615 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2616 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2617 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2619 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2620 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2623 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2625 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2627 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2629 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2631 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2632 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2633 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2634 field a separate argument.
2636 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2638 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2640 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2642 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
2646 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2648 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
2650 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2652 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
2653 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2654 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2655 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2656 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2657 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2659 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2660 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2661 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2662 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2663 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2666 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2668 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
2670 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2672 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
2673 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
2675 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2677 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2679 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2680 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2681 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2682 expansion inside the slib module.
2684 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2686 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
2687 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
2688 (let): New core form.
2689 (if): Removed from core language.
2690 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
2691 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
2692 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
2694 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
2695 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2696 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2698 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2699 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2702 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2704 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2705 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2707 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
2709 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
2710 (make-module): Modified initialization.
2711 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
2712 mutator for module-associated transformer.
2713 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
2714 `scm:eval-transformer'.
2715 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
2716 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
2718 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
2720 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2722 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2724 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2725 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2726 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2727 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2728 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2730 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2731 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2732 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2734 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2735 the syncase interface.
2737 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2739 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2740 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2741 workings of the current module system).
2743 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2745 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2746 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
2749 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2751 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
2752 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
2753 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
2755 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2757 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2758 according to the following priorities:
2759 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2760 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2762 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2763 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2764 (new-interpreter): New function.
2766 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2767 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2768 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2770 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2772 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2774 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2776 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
2778 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2780 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New

2784 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2786 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2787 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
2790 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2792 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2793 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
2794 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
2795 symbols matching regexp.
2797 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
2798 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2801 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2802 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
2803 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);

2805 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2807 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2808 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2810 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2812 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2813 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2815 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2816 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2818 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2820 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2822 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2823 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
2824 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
2826 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
2828 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
2829 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
2830 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
2832 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2834 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
2835 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.
2837 Sat Aug 16 18:44:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2839 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
2842 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2844 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2845 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2846 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2848 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2849 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2852 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2853 order to narrow it correctly.
2854 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
2856 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2858 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
2859 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
2861 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2863 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
2865 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2867 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2868 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2870 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2872 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2873 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2874 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2876 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2878 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2881 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2883 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
2884 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
2885 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
2886 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
2887 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
2889 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2891 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
2892 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
2895 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
2897 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2899 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
2900 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
2901 notation, instead of #/ notation.
2903 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
2906 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2908 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2909 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2910 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2911 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2912 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2913 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2915 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2916 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2917 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2918 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2920 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2922 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2923 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2924 sending in bug reports.
2925 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2926 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2927 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2928 display a warning if the two are different.
2929 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2930 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2931 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2933 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2935 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
2937 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2939 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2940 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2942 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2943 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2944 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2945 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2946 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2947 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2950 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2951 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2954 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2955 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2957 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2960 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2963 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

2968 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2970 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2971 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2973 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2975 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2976 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2977 to support printing of structures.
2978 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2979 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2980 commented out printing code.
2981 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2982 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
2984 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
2986 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
2988 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2990 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
2991 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2992 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2993 during call to scm-style-repl.
2995 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2997 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2998 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2999 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3000 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3001 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3003 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3005 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3006 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3009 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3011 * regex.scm: New file.
3012 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3013 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3015 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3017 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3018 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3019 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3020 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3022 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3024 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3027 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3029 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3030 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3031 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3033 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3035 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3036 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3039 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3041 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3043 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3045 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3047 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3049 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3050 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3053 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3055 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3056 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3057 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3059 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3061 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3062 the Scheme code like code yet.
3063 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3065 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3067 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3068 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3069 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3071 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3073 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3075 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3078 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3080 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3082 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3084 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3086 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3087 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3088 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3090 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3092 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3093 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3094 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3096 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3098 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3099 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3101 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3103 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3106 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3108 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3110 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3112 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3113 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3115 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3117 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3118 instead of in libguile.
3119 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3120 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3122 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3124 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3126 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3127 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3129 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3131 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3132 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3134 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3136 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3137 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3138 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3139 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3141 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3143 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3144 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3146 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3148 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3150 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3152 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3153 keywords and symbols.
3155 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3157 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3159 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3160 Don't define read-sharp.
3162 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3163 (read-sharp): removed.
3164 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3165 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3167 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3169 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3171 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3172 primitive procedure.)
3174 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3175 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3177 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3179 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3181 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3183 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3185 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3187 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3189 * (exit): alias for quit.
3191 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3193 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3194 return the quit args.
3195 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3196 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3197 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3199 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3201 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3203 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3205 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3206 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3208 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3209 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3211 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3212 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3215 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3217 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3219 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3220 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3221 Change hooks to use these functions.
3223 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3224 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3225 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3227 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3228 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3229 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3230 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3231 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3232 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3233 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3236 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3237 and exit-frame exceptions.
3239 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3240 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3241 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3242 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3243 result; otherwise display "> ".
3244 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3246 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3247 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3248 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3249 repository version runnable.
3251 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3253 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3254 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3255 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3256 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3257 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3258 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3260 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3262 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3263 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3265 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3267 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3268 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3270 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3272 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3274 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3276 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3279 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3281 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3282 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3284 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3286 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3289 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3291 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3292 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3294 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3296 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3298 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3299 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3300 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3301 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3302 dynamic linking of modules.
3303 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3304 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3306 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3308 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3310 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3312 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3315 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3316 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3319 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3321 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3322 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3323 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3325 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3327 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3328 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3331 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3333 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3334 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3335 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3337 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3339 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3340 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3341 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3342 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3344 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3345 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3346 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3347 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3348 (such as the-scm-module).
3350 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3352 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3355 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3357 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3358 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3359 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3361 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3363 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3364 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3365 function, use it accordingly.
3367 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3369 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3370 function of no arguments.
3371 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3372 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3373 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3374 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3375 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3376 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3377 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3378 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3380 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3382 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3383 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3385 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3387 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3388 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3389 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3390 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3391 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3393 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3396 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3397 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3398 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3399 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3401 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3403 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3405 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3406 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3407 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3409 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3412 Added `before-read-hook'.
3414 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3416 (provide): New function.
3418 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3421 (backtrace): New function.
3423 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3424 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3425 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3426 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3427 is found in operator position in a frame.
3429 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3432 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3433 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3434 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3436 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3438 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3440 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3442 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3444 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3446 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3448 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3449 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3451 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3452 so they'll get distributed.
3454 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3455 should see as little clutter as possible.
3456 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3457 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3458 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3460 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3461 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3462 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3463 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3464 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3465 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3466 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3467 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3468 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3469 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3471 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3472 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3474 * test.scm: New file.
3476 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3477 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3478 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3480 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3481 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3483 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3485 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3486 call %load-announce.
3488 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3490 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3491 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3492 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3494 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3496 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3498 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3499 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3500 SCSH (which this isn't).
3502 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3504 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3506 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3508 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3509 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3510 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3512 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3513 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3514 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3515 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3518 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3520 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3522 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3524 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3525 error-catching-loop.
3526 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3527 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3528 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3530 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3531 error-catching-loop.
3533 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3535 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3536 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3537 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3538 should be '(), not #f.
3540 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3541 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3543 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3545 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3546 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3549 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3551 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3552 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3553 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3554 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3556 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3558 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3560 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3562 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3564 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3565 throw-handler-default.
3566 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3568 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3570 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3571 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3573 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3575 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3576 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3577 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3578 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3580 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3582 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3583 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3584 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3585 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3587 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3588 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3589 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3590 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3593 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3595 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3597 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3600 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3603 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3605 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3607 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3608 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3610 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3612 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3614 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3616 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3618 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3619 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3620 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3621 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3622 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3624 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3625 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3626 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3627 they seem redundant.
3628 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3629 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3630 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3631 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3632 directly files starting with "/").
3633 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3634 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3636 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3638 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3640 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3641 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3642 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3643 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3644 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3645 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3646 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3647 robust to just do it in the C code.
3649 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3651 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3652 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3653 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3654 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3655 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3657 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3659 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3660 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3661 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3663 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3665 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3666 system-error, not every kind of error.
3667 (scm-error): new procedure.
3669 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3671 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3673 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3675 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3676 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3677 of args are supplied.
3678 (%%system-errors): removed.
3679 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3680 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3681 %%handle-system-error.
3682 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3683 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3684 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3685 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3687 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3689 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3690 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3691 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3692 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3694 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3696 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3697 the empty list if they are #f.
3698 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3700 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3702 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3704 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3705 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3706 aborting, just the key and subr.
3707 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3708 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3709 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3711 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3713 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3714 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3715 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3716 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3717 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3719 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3721 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3722 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3723 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3724 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3726 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3728 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3729 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3730 initialize %load-path.
3732 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3733 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3735 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3737 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3738 Add the directory named after the version number.
3739 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3740 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3741 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3742 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3743 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3744 (install): Create the above directories.
3745 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3746 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3748 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3750 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3751 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3752 in the Makefile directly.
3753 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3755 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3757 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3758 here, where people expect to find them.
