67 2003-10-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
69 * poe.scm (funcq-assoc): Rewrite, don't assume '() is false, and

72 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
74 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
78 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

119 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
120 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
121 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
122 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
124 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
126 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as

136 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
138 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so

141 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
143 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
144 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
145 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
147 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
148 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
150 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>

171 instead of substring-move-left! or substring-move-right!. Thanks
174 * deprecated.scm (substring-move-left!, substring-move-right!):
177 * boot-9.scm (display-usage-report): Use keyword->symbol instead
178 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.

181 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
183 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
184 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
186 2003-04-25 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kvast.blakulla.net>
188 * serialize.scm: New file.

226 * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers): Make sure the merge-generics
227 and merge-accessors handlers are available also before (oop goops)

619 2002-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
621 * boot-9.scm (file-set-position): Use seek instead of fseek.
623 2002-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

631 2002-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
633 * format.scm (format:fn-max): Increase to 400 so ~f and ~g can
634 print long real numbers with large positive and negative
637 2002-05-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
639 * syncase.scm: Use (ice-9 threads) so that with-mutex is defined.

663 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
665 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
667 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
668 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
669 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
671 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
673 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

683 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
685 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
686 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
687 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
688 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
690 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
692 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
694 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
695 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
696 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
698 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
700 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

711 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
713 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
714 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
715 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)

722 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
723 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
724 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
725 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
728 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
730 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
733 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
735 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
736 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
737 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
738 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
740 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
742 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
743 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
744 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of

749 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
751 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>

760 $(srcdir) in order to support separate build trees.
762 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
764 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
765 the `arglist' procedure property.
766 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
767 present a more detailed argument list.
769 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!

773 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
774 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
777 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
779 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
781 (feature?): Deprecated.
783 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,

792 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
793 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
795 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated

803 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
805 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
807 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
809 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
811 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
813 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
814 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
815 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
817 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
819 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
820 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
822 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
824 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
826 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
828 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
832 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
834 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
835 last-command fluid is not yet set.
837 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
839 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
841 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
842 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
843 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
845 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
847 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
848 handle :use-syntax correctly.
850 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
852 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
855 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
857 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
858 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
859 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
860 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
861 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
863 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
865 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
866 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
867 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
869 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
871 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
872 primitives. Thanks Neil!
874 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
876 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
877 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
878 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
879 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
881 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
882 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
883 since there aren't definitions for them.
885 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
886 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
888 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
890 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
891 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
893 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
895 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
896 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
898 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
900 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
901 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
902 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
904 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
906 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
908 * tags.scm: Removed file.
910 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
912 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
913 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
915 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
916 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
917 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
920 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
922 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
923 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
925 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
927 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
928 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
930 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
931 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
932 evaluator trap options.)

936 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
938 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

942 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
944 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
946 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
948 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
949 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
951 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
954 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
955 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
956 No longer require `pretty-print'.
958 (slib:error): Delete.
959 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
961 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
966 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
970 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
972 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
973 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
974 rdelim) module. See below.
976 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
978 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
979 include-deprecated-features is true.
981 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
983 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
986 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
987 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
988 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
990 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
991 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
992 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
995 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
997 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
998 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
999 variable, not just a visible one.
1000 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
1001 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
1002 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
1003 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
1004 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
1005 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
1007 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
1009 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
1010 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
1012 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1014 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
1015 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
1017 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1019 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
1021 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1023 Added exception notice to all files.
1025 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
1026 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
1027 importing bindings once in a while.
1029 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1031 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
1032 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
1033 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1034 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
1035 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
1036 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
1037 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
1038 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
1040 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
1041 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
1043 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1045 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
1046 fix command so that it works.
1048 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
1049 to access unbound variables.
1051 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
1052 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
1053 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
1054 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
1055 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
1057 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1059 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
1060 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
1061 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
1062 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
1063 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
1064 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
1065 argument for process-define-module.
1066 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
1067 arguments for process-use-modules.
1068 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
1070 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1072 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
1073 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
1074 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
1077 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
1078 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
1079 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
1081 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
1083 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1085 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules

1097 (process-define-module): Use `spec' instead of `module-name' when
1098 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1100 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1102 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
1103 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
1105 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
1108 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1110 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
1111 * match.scm: Likewise.
1112 * expect.scm: Likewise.
1113 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
1115 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
1117 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
1119 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
1121 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
1122 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
1123 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
1124 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
1125 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
1126 element list when adding "." to it.
1127 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
1128 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
1130 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1132 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
1134 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
1135 now accepts arg; update callers.
1136 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
1137 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
1139 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
1140 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
1141 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
1142 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
1143 `search-documentation-files'.
1144 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
1145 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
1146 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
1148 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
1149 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
1151 (find-documentation): Delete.
1152 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.
1153 (object-documentation): Use `search-documentation-files'.
1155 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1157 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
1158 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.
1159 (use-srfis): New procedure.
1161 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1163 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if
1164 used module's public interface is not available.
1165 No longer call `beautify-user-module!'.
1166 Signal error now also if selected binding not found.
1168 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1170 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
1172 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
1174 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
1176 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
1177 the magical undefined value.

1192 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1193 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to

1196 `set-current-module' call.
1197 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1198 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

1432 make-buffered-input-port.
1434 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

1497 `interaction-evironment'.
1498 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
1500 (eval-when): New macro.
1501 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
1502 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.

1569 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1570 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1571 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1572 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1573 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1574 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1575 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1577 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1579 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only

1584 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1587 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1589 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1592 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1594 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1596 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1598 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1599 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1600 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1601 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,

1607 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1608 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,

1610 make-shared-substring.
1612 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1614 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1615 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1616 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1617 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1620 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1622 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1623 and open-output-pipe.
1625 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1627 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1628 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1629 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1630 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1631 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1632 Pirotte for the bug report).
1633 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1634 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1636 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1638 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1658 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1659 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1660 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1662 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1663 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1664 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1665 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1666 actual documentation entries themselves.
1668 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1698 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1700 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1701 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1702 even worked... /mdj.
1703 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1705 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS

1731 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1733 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1734 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1735 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1736 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1737 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1739 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1741 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1743 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1744 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1746 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1749 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1750 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1751 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1752 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1754 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1756 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
1757 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
1759 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
1761 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1762 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1764 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1766 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1767 definition of module-type.
1769 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1771 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1773 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1775 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1776 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1778 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1780 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1782 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1784 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1785 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1786 Mikael for the suggestion.
1788 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1790 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1791 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1793 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1795 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1798 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1800 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1802 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1804 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1805 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1808 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1809 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1812 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1814 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1815 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1817 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1818 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1819 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1821 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1823 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1825 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1827 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1828 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1830 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1832 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1833 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1835 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1837 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1838 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1840 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1842 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1844 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1846 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1848 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1850 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1852 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1853 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1855 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1857 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1860 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1861 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1862 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1863 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1866 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1868 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1870 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1872 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1873 (write-all): Removed.
1874 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1875 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1877 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1879 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1880 `proc-documentation'
1882 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1883 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1884 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1885 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1886 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1887 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1888 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1891 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1893 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1895 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1897 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1898 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1899 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1902 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1904 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1905 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1906 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1907 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1908 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1909 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1910 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1912 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1914 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1915 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1917 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1919 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1920 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1922 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1924 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1925 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1926 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1927 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1928 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1929 delete-if! when iterating.
1931 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1933 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1935 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1937 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1939 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1941 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1942 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1943 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1944 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1946 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1948 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1949 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1951 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1953 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1954 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1955 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1956 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1958 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1960 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1961 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1963 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1965 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1966 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1968 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1970 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1973 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1975 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1976 source of the numerous very short changes.
1978 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1980 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1983 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1986 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1988 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1991 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1993 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1994 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1996 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1998 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
2001 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2003 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
2004 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
2005 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
2007 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2009 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
2010 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
2011 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
2012 Narazaki for this change.
2014 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2016 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
2017 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
2020 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
2021 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
2023 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2025 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
2026 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
2028 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2030 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
2031 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
2032 use define-public to export from the module.
2034 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2036 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
2037 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
2038 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
2040 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2042 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
2044 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2046 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
2047 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
2049 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2051 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
2053 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
2055 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
2057 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2059 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
2060 long_long uniform vectors.
2062 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2064 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
2065 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
2067 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2069 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
2070 script to create generated files like this one.
2072 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2074 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2075 available before using getpw and getuid.
2076 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2077 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2079 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2080 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2081 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2083 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2084 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2085 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2087 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2088 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2090 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2092 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2094 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2095 than 'exit-debugger.
2097 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2098 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2100 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
2102 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2104 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
2105 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
2106 ("position"): New command.
2107 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2108 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
2109 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
2110 to return a valid state.)
2111 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
2113 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2115 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
2116 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
2119 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2121 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2122 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2124 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2126 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2128 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2130 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2131 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2133 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2134 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2135 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2137 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2140 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2142 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2143 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2145 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2147 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2149 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2150 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2151 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2152 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2154 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2157 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2158 both forward and backward views of the stack
2159 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2160 Use selector `frame-number';
2161 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2162 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2164 Use readline conditionally.
2166 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2168 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2169 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2170 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2172 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2173 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2176 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2178 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2180 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2182 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2184 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2186 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2188 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2189 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2190 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2191 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2192 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2193 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2194 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2195 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2196 libguile-config-stamp.
2197 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2198 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2199 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2200 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2201 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2203 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2205 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2206 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2207 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2209 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2210 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2211 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2212 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2215 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2217 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2219 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2221 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2223 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2224 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2226 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2228 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2229 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2230 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2231 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2232 objects starting with '#/'.
2234 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2236 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2237 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2238 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2239 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2240 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2241 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2243 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2244 module-modified): New procedures.
2245 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2246 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2248 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2250 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2253 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2255 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2256 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2257 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2259 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2262 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2264 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2265 at multiple calls to read.
2266 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2267 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2268 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2269 continued-lines prompt.
2271 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2272 reading expressions.
2274 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2276 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2277 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2279 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2281 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2282 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2285 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2287 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2288 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2290 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2291 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2292 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2293 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2294 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2297 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2299 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2300 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2302 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2304 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2305 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2306 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2307 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2309 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2311 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2313 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2314 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2315 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2318 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2320 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2321 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2322 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2323 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2324 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2325 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2326 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2327 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2328 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2329 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2330 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2332 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2334 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2335 peeked from the stream.
2336 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2337 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2338 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2340 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2342 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2343 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2345 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2347 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2348 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2349 exiting repl with single control-D.
2351 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2353 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2354 error catching loop after quit received.
2355 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2357 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2358 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2359 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2361 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2362 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2364 * popen.scm: new file.
2366 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2368 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2369 (reverse-iota): removed.
2371 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2373 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2374 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2376 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2378 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2379 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2380 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2381 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2382 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2384 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2386 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2388 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2389 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2391 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2392 Guile's module system.
2394 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2396 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2397 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2398 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2399 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2400 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2401 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2403 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2404 '() when the condition is false.
2406 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2408 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2410 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2412 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2414 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2416 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2417 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2418 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2420 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2422 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2423 argument order for hash-fold.
2425 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2427 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2429 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2430 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2432 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2433 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2434 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2435 has been added to the load path).
2437 Use try-load-module.
2439 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2441 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2442 module between system and user state.
2444 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2446 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2448 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2451 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2453 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2454 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2455 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2457 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2459 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2460 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2461 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2462 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2463 stack frame encountered.
2465 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2466 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2467 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2468 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2471 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2472 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2473 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2474 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2477 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2478 define-module switches:
2480 (define-module (foo)
2483 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2486 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2487 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2488 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2489 module it is a system frame.
2491 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2492 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2493 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2494 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2495 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2497 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2498 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2499 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2500 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2501 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2502 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2504 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2505 status of a module.;
2506 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2507 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2509 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2510 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2511 closure to the module.
2513 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2515 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2517 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2519 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2521 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2523 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2525 Fix from Russ McManus:
2526 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2527 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2528 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2529 either an optional or required value.
2531 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2533 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2535 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2536 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2538 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2539 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2540 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2541 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2543 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2545 * optargs.scm: New file.
2546 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2547 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2549 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2551 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2552 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2553 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2555 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2557 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2558 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2561 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2563 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2565 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2567 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2568 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2569 applied to the module itself.
2571 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2573 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2575 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2576 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2578 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2580 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2582 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2584 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2586 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2588 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2589 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2591 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2593 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2594 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2595 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2596 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2597 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2598 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2599 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2601 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2603 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2604 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2606 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2608 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2609 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2612 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2614 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2616 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2618 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2620 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2622 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2623 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2624 adapt to the new hooks.
2626 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2628 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2629 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2630 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2632 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2633 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2635 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2636 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2637 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2638 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2639 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2640 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2641 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2642 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2643 first to register linked modules.
2645 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2646 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2647 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2649 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2650 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2651 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2652 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2654 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2656 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2659 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2660 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2661 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2663 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2665 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2666 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2667 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2669 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2671 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2672 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2673 result of the last form.
2675 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2677 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2680 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2682 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2683 readline-set!: New options interface.
2685 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2687 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2689 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2690 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2692 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2694 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2695 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2697 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2699 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2700 interactive session.
2701 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2703 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2704 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2706 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2708 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2710 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2712 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2713 read line was empty.
2715 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2717 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2718 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2720 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2722 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2724 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2725 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2726 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2728 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2729 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2731 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2732 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2733 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2735 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2736 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2737 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2738 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2739 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2740 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2742 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2744 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2745 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2747 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2749 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2750 and short vectors #h(...).
2752 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2754 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2755 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2756 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2758 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2760 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2761 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2762 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2764 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2766 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2767 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2769 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2770 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2771 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2772 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2774 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2776 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2779 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2780 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2781 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2782 context with traps enabled.
2784 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2786 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2788 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2790 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2792 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2793 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2794 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2795 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2796 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2798 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2800 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2801 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2803 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2805 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2807 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2809 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2811 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2813 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2815 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2817 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2818 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2820 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2822 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2823 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2824 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2825 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2828 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2829 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2830 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2832 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2834 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2835 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2836 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2837 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2838 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2839 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2840 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2842 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2844 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2846 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2848 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2849 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2850 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2851 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2852 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2853 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2855 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2857 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2858 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2859 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2862 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2864 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2866 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2868 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2870 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2872 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2875 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2877 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2879 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2881 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2882 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2884 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2886 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2887 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2888 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2889 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2891 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2892 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2894 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2896 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2898 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2900 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2901 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2904 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2905 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2907 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2908 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2909 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2911 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2913 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2915 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2917 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2918 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2920 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2922 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2924 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2926 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2927 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2929 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2931 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2934 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2936 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2937 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2939 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2941 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2943 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2945 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2948 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2950 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2951 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2952 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2953 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2954 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2957 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2959 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2960 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2961 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2963 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2965 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2967 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2968 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2970 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2972 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2973 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2974 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2975 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2976 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2977 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2978 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2981 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2983 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2986 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2988 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2989 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2990 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2991 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2992 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2993 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2995 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2997 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2998 usefully so they will work from a script.
3000 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3002 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
3003 neighborhood of the record code.
3005 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3007 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
3008 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
3009 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
3010 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
3012 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3014 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
3015 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
3016 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3018 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3020 Add support for readline function.
3021 * readline.scm: New module.
3022 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
3023 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
3024 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
3026 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
3027 repl-reader to use them.
3028 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
3030 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
3032 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3034 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3035 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
3037 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3039 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
3040 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
3041 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
3043 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3045 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
3046 #f, abort terminates the process.
3047 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
3048 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
3050 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3052 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
3053 print-state, throw it away.
3055 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3057 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
3060 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3062 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
3063 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
3064 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
3065 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
3067 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
3068 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
3070 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3072 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3074 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3076 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3077 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3078 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3079 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3080 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3082 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3083 distribution and installation.
3084 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3086 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3088 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3090 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3092 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3093 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3094 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3096 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3097 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3100 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3102 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3104 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3106 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3108 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3109 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3110 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3111 field a separate argument.
3113 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3115 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3117 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3119 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3123 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3125 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3127 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3129 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3130 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3131 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3132 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3133 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3134 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3136 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3137 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3138 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3139 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3140 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3143 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3145 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
3147 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3149 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3150 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3152 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3154 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3156 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3157 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3158 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3159 expansion inside the slib module.
3161 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3163 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3164 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
3165 (let): New core form.
3166 (if): Removed from core language.
3167 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
3168 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
3169 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3171 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3172 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3173 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3175 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3176 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3179 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3181 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3182 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3184 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3186 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3187 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3188 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3189 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3190 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3191 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3192 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3193 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
3195 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
3197 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3199 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3201 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3202 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3203 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3204 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3205 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3207 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3208 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3209 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3211 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3212 the syncase interface.
3214 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3216 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3217 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3218 workings of the current module system).
3220 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3222 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3223 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
3226 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3228 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
3229 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3230 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3232 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3234 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3235 according to the following priorities:
3236 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3237 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3239 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3240 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3241 (new-interpreter): New function.
3243 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3244 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3245 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3247 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3249 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3251 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3253 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
3255 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3257 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
3259 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
3261 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3263 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3264 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
3267 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3269 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3270 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
3271 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
3272 symbols matching regexp.
3274 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
3275 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3278 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3279 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3280 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
3281 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
3282 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3284 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
3285 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3287 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3289 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
3290 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
3292 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
3293 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
3295 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
3297 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3299 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
3300 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
3301 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
3303 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
3305 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
3306 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
3307 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
3309 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3311 * session.scm: New file: Session support.

3314 Sat Aug 16 18:44:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3316 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
3319 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3321 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3322 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3323 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3325 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3326 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3329 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3330 order to narrow it correctly.
3331 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
3333 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3335 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
3336 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
3338 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3340 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3342 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3344 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3345 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3347 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3349 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3350 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3351 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3353 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3355 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
3358 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3360 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
3361 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
3362 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
3363 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
3364 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
3366 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3368 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
3369 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
3372 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
3374 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3376 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
3377 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
3378 notation, instead of #/ notation.
3380 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
3383 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3385 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
3386 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3387 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3388 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3389 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3390 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3392 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3393 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3394 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3395 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3397 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3399 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3400 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3401 sending in bug reports.
3402 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3403 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3404 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3405 display a warning if the two are different.
3406 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3407 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3408 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3410 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3412 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
3414 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3416 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3417 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3419 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3420 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3421 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3422 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3423 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3424 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3427 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3428 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3431 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3432 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3434 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3437 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3440 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3442 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
3445 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3447 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3448 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3450 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3452 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3453 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3454 to support printing of structures.
3455 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3456 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3457 commented out printing code.
3458 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3459 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
3461 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3463 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
3465 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3467 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
3468 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
3469 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3470 during call to scm-style-repl.
3472 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3474 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3475 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3476 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3477 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3478 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3480 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3482 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3483 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3486 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3488 * regex.scm: New file.
3489 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3490 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3492 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3494 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3495 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3496 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3497 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3499 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3501 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3504 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3506 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3507 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3508 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3510 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3512 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3513 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3516 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3518 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3520 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3522 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3524 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3526 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3527 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3530 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3532 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3533 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3534 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3536 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3538 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3539 the Scheme code like code yet.
3540 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3542 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3544 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3545 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3546 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3548 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3550 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3552 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3555 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3557 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3559 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3561 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3563 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3564 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3565 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3567 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3569 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3570 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3571 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3573 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3575 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3576 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3578 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3580 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3583 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>

3589 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3590 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3592 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3594 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3595 instead of in libguile.
3596 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3597 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3599 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3601 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3603 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3604 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3606 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3608 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3609 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3611 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3613 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3614 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3615 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3616 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3618 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3620 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3621 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3623 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3625 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3627 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3629 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3630 keywords and symbols.
3632 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3634 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3636 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3637 Don't define read-sharp.
3639 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3640 (read-sharp): removed.
3641 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3642 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3644 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3646 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3648 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3649 primitive procedure.)
3651 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3652 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3654 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3656 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3658 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3660 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3662 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3664 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3666 * (exit): alias for quit.
3668 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3670 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3671 return the quit args.
3672 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3673 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3674 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3676 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3678 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3680 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3682 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3683 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3685 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3686 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3688 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3689 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3692 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3694 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3696 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3697 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3698 Change hooks to use these functions.
3700 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3701 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3702 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3704 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3705 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3706 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3707 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3708 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3709 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3710 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3713 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3714 and exit-frame exceptions.
3716 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3717 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3718 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3719 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3720 result; otherwise display "> ".
3721 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3723 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3724 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3725 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3726 repository version runnable.
3728 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3730 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3731 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3732 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3733 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3734 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3735 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3737 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3739 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3740 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3742 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3744 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3745 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3747 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3749 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3751 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3753 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3756 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3758 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3759 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3761 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3763 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3766 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3768 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3769 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3771 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3773 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3775 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3776 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3777 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3778 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3779 dynamic linking of modules.
3780 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3781 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3783 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3785 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3787 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3789 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3792 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3793 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3796 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3798 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3799 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3800 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3802 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3804 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3805 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3808 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3810 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3811 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3812 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3814 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3816 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3817 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3818 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3819 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3821 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3822 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3823 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3824 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3825 (such as the-scm-module).
3827 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3829 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3832 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3834 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3835 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3836 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3838 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3840 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3841 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3842 function, use it accordingly.
3844 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3846 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3847 function of no arguments.
3848 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3849 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3850 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3851 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3852 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3853 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3854 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3855 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3857 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3859 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3860 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3862 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3864 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3865 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3866 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3867 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3868 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3870 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3873 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3874 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3875 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3876 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3878 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3880 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3882 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3883 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3884 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3886 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3889 Added `before-read-hook'.
3891 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3893 (provide): New function.
3895 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3898 (backtrace): New function.
3900 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3901 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3902 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3903 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3904 is found in operator position in a frame.
3906 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3909 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3910 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3911 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3913 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3915 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3917 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3919 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3921 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3923 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3925 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3926 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3928 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3929 so they'll get distributed.
3931 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3932 should see as little clutter as possible.
3933 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3934 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3935 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3937 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3938 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3939 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3940 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3941 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3942 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3943 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3944 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3945 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3946 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3948 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3949 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3951 * test.scm: New file.
3953 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3954 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3955 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3957 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3958 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3960 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3962 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3963 call %load-announce.
3965 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3967 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3968 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3969 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3971 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3973 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3975 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3976 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3977 SCSH (which this isn't).
3979 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3981 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3983 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3985 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3986 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3987 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3989 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3990 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3991 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3992 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3995 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3997 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3999 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
4001 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
4002 error-catching-loop.
4003 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
4004 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
4005 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
4007 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
4008 error-catching-loop.
4010 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4012 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
4013 (make-module): Rework for readability.
4014 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
4015 should be '(), not #f.
4017 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
4018 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
4020 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4022 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
4023 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
4026 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4028 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
4029 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
4030 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
4031 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
4033 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4035 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
4037 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4039 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
4041 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
4042 throw-handler-default.
4043 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
4045 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
4047 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
4048 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
4050 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4052 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
4053 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
4054 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
4055 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
4057 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4059 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
4060 Append "." to the default %load-path.
4061 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
4062 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
4064 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
4065 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
4066 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
4067 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
4070 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4072 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4074 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4077 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4080 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4082 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4084 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4085 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4087 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4089 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4091 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4093 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4095 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4096 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4097 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4098 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4099 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4101 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4102 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4103 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4104 they seem redundant.
4105 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4106 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4107 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4108 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4109 directly files starting with "/").
4110 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4111 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4113 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4115 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4117 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4118 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4119 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4120 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4121 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4122 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4123 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4124 robust to just do it in the C code.
4126 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4128 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4129 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4130 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4131 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4132 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4134 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4136 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4137 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4138 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4140 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4142 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4143 system-error, not every kind of error.
4144 (scm-error): new procedure.
4146 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4148 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4150 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4152 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4153 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4154 of args are supplied.
4155 (%%system-errors): removed.
4156 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4157 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4158 %%handle-system-error.
4159 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4160 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4161 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4162 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4164 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4166 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4167 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4168 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4169 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4171 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4173 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4174 the empty list if they are #f.
4175 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4177 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4179 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4181 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4182 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4183 aborting, just the key and subr.
4184 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4185 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4186 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4188 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4190 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4191 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4192 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4193 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4194 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4196 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4198 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4199 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4200 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4201 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4203 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4205 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4206 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4207 initialize %load-path.
4209 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4210 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4212 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4214 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4215 Add the directory named after the version number.
4216 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4217 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4218 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4219 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4220 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4221 (install): Create the above directories.
4222 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4223 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4225 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4227 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4228 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4229 in the Makefile directly.
4230 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4232 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4234 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4235 here, where people expect to find them.
4237 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4239 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4240 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4242 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4244 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4246 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
4247 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4249 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4251 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
4252 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
4254 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
4255 weak-key-hash-table.
4257 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4259 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
4260 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
4261 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
4262 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
4263 (%open-file): removed.
4264 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
4265 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
4267 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4269 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
4270 (manifest): Deleted.
4271 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
4272 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
4274 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4276 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
4277 now that they throw errors directly.
4278 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
4279 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
4281 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4283 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
4285 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
4287 * The more things change...
