57 2003-10-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
59 * poe.scm (funcq-assoc): Rewrite, don't assume '() is false, and

62 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
64 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
68 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

109 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
110 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
111 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
112 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.

116 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as

126 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
128 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
129 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
131 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
133 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
134 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
135 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
137 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
138 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
140 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>

161 instead of substring-move-left! or substring-move-right!. Thanks
164 * deprecated.scm (substring-move-left!, substring-move-right!):
167 * boot-9.scm (display-usage-report): Use keyword->symbol instead
168 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.
170 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-get-handle): Pass only the expected four
171 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
173 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
174 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
176 2003-04-25 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kvast.blakulla.net>
178 * serialize.scm: New file.
180 2003-04-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
182 * threads.scm (n-for-each-par-map): New procedure.

204 2003-03-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
206 * format.scm (format:out-substr): Update the column counter
207 correctly. This fixes the behavior of ~T (tabbing) after ~F, for
208 instance. Thanks to Matthias Koeppe!
210 2003-03-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
212 * session.scm (apropos): Don't look in duplicates interface.

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

621 2002-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
623 * format.scm (format:fn-max): Increase to 400 so ~f and ~g can
624 print long real numbers with large positive and negative
627 2002-05-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
629 * syncase.scm: Use (ice-9 threads) so that with-mutex is defined.

653 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
655 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
657 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
658 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
659 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
661 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
663 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

671 (psyntax.pp): Use $(preinstguile).
673 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
675 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
676 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
677 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
678 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
680 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
682 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
684 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
685 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
686 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
688 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
690 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

701 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
703 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
704 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be
705 set elsewhere.) (Thanks to Aubrey Jaffer.)
707 * and-let-star-compat.scm, and-let-star.scm, calling.scm,
708 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

712 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
713 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
714 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
715 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
718 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
720 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
723 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
725 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
726 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
727 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
728 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
730 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
732 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
733 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
734 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
737 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
739 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
741 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>

752 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
754 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
755 the `arglist' procedure property.
756 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
757 present a more detailed argument list.
759 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
761 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
763 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
764 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
767 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
769 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
771 (feature?): Deprecated.
773 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,

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

793 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
795 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

801 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
803 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
804 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
805 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
807 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
809 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
810 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
812 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
814 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
816 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
818 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
822 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
824 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
825 last-command fluid is not yet set.
827 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
829 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
831 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
832 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
833 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
835 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
837 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
838 handle :use-syntax correctly.
840 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
842 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
845 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
847 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
848 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
849 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
850 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
851 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
853 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
855 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
856 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
857 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
859 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
861 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
862 primitives. Thanks Neil!
864 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
866 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
867 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
868 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
869 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
871 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
872 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
873 since there aren't definitions for them.
875 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
876 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
878 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
880 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
881 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
883 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
885 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
886 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
888 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
890 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
891 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
892 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
894 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
896 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
898 * tags.scm: Removed file.
900 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
902 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
903 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
905 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
906 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
907 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
910 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
912 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
913 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
915 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
917 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
918 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
920 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
921 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
922 evaluator trap options.)

926 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
928 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

932 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
934 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
936 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
938 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
939 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
941 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
944 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
945 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
946 No longer require `pretty-print'.
948 (slib:error): Delete.
949 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
951 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
956 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
960 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
962 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
963 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
964 rdelim) module. See below.
966 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
968 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
969 include-deprecated-features is true.
971 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
973 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
976 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
977 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
978 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
980 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
981 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
982 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
985 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
987 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
988 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
989 variable, not just a visible one.
990 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
991 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
992 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
993 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
994 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
995 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
997 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
999 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
1000 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
1002 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1004 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
1005 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.

1009 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
1011 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1013 Added exception notice to all files.
1015 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
1016 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
1017 importing bindings once in a while.
1019 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1021 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
1022 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
1023 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1024 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
1025 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
1026 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
1027 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
1028 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
1030 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
1031 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
1033 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1035 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
1036 fix command so that it works.
1038 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
1039 to access unbound variables.
1041 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
1042 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
1043 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
1044 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
1045 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
1047 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1049 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
1050 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
1051 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
1052 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
1053 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
1054 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
1055 argument for process-define-module.
1056 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
1057 arguments for process-use-modules.
1058 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
1060 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1062 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
1063 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
1064 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
1067 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
1068 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
1069 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
1071 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
1073 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1075 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules

1088 getting the syntax transformer. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1090 2001-05-21 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1092 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Do not set scm:eval-transformer when
1093 deprecated features have been removed. Thanks to Dale P. Smith!
1095 * optargs.scm (#\&): Use `issue-deprecation-warning' instead of
1098 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1100 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
1101 * match.scm: Likewise.
1102 * expect.scm: Likewise.
1103 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
1105 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
1107 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
1109 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
1111 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
1112 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
1113 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
1114 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
1115 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
1116 element list when adding "." to it.
1117 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
1118 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
1120 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1122 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
1124 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
1125 now accepts arg; update callers.
1126 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
1127 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
1129 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
1130 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
1131 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
1132 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
1133 `search-documentation-files'.
1134 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
1135 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
1136 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
1138 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
1139 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
1141 (find-documentation): Delete.
1142 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.

1145 2001-05-15 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1147 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
1148 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.
1149 (use-srfis): New procedure.
1151 2001-05-15 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1153 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Signal error now also if
1154 used module's public interface is not available.
1155 No longer call `beautify-user-module!'.
1156 Signal error now also if selected binding not found.
1158 2001-05-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1160 Merge from mvo-vcell-clenaup-1-branch.
1162 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
1164 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
1166 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
1167 the magical undefined value.
1168 (let-o-k-template): Use `#f' instead of the undefined value as
1169 the default default for bindings.
1171 * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Do not pass name hint to
1172 make-undefined-variable, use `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1173 (root-module-closure): Removed.
1174 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
1175 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
1176 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
1177 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the

1181 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
1182 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1183 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1184 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1185 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1186 `set-current-module' call.
1187 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1188 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

1419 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
1421 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
1422 make-buffered-input-port.
1424 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

1484 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1486 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
1487 `interaction-evironment'.
1488 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
1490 (eval-when): New macro.
1491 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
1492 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
1493 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
1495 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the

1530 This patch fixes a problem reported by Martin Grabmueller about
1531 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
1533 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to

1554 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
1555 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
1557 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1559 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1560 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1561 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1562 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1563 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1564 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1565 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1567 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1569 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1570 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1572 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1574 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1577 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1579 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1582 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1584 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1586 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1588 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1589 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1590 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1591 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1592 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,

1597 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1598 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1599 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1600 make-shared-substring.
1602 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1604 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1605 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1606 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1607 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1610 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1612 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1613 and open-output-pipe.
1615 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1617 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1618 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1619 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1620 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1621 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1622 Pirotte for the bug report).
1623 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1624 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1626 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1628 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1638 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the

1646 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1648 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1649 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1650 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1652 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1653 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1654 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1655 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1656 actual documentation entries themselves.
1658 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1660 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1662 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1666 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1671 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
1672 getter-and-setter-syntax,
1673 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
1674 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
1676 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
1678 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
1680 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1682 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1684 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1686 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1688 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1690 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1691 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1692 even worked... /mdj.
1693 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1695 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1698 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1716 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1718 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
1721 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1723 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1724 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1725 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1726 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1727 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1729 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1731 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1733 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1734 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1736 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1739 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1740 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1741 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1742 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1744 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1746 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
1747 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
1749 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
1751 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1752 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1754 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1756 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1757 definition of module-type.
1759 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1761 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1763 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1765 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1766 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1768 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1770 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1772 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1774 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1775 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1776 Mikael for the suggestion.
1778 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1780 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1781 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1783 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1785 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1788 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1790 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1792 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1794 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1795 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1798 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1799 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1802 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1804 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1805 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1807 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1808 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1809 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1811 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1813 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1815 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1817 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1818 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1820 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1822 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1823 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1825 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1827 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1828 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1830 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1832 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1834 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1836 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1838 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1840 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1842 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1843 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1845 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1847 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1850 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1851 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1852 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1853 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1856 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1858 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1860 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1862 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1863 (write-all): Removed.
1864 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1865 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1867 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1869 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1870 `proc-documentation'
1872 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1873 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1874 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1875 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1876 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1877 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1878 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1881 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1883 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1885 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1887 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1888 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1889 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1892 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1894 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1895 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1896 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1897 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1898 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1899 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1900 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1902 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1904 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1905 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1907 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1909 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1910 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1912 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1914 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1915 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1916 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1917 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1918 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1919 delete-if! when iterating.
1921 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1923 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1925 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1927 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1929 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1931 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1932 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1933 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1934 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1936 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1938 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1939 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1941 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1943 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1944 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1945 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1946 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1948 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1950 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1951 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1953 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1955 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1956 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1958 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1960 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1963 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1965 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1966 source of the numerous very short changes.
1968 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1970 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1973 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1976 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1978 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1981 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1983 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1984 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1986 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1988 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1991 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1993 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1994 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1995 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1997 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1999 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
2000 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
2001 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
2002 Narazaki for this change.
2004 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2006 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
2007 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
2010 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
2011 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
2013 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2015 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
2016 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
2018 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2020 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
2021 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
2022 use define-public to export from the module.
2024 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2026 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
2027 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
2028 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
2030 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2032 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
2034 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2036 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
2037 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
2039 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2041 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
2043 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
2045 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
2047 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2049 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
2050 long_long uniform vectors.
2052 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2054 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
2055 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
2057 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2059 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
2060 script to create generated files like this one.
2062 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2064 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2065 available before using getpw and getuid.
2066 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2067 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2069 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2070 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2071 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2073 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2074 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2075 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2077 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2078 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2080 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2082 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2084 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2085 than 'exit-debugger.
2087 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
2088 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
2090 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
2092 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2094 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
2095 Mark module with :no-backtrace.

2097 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
2098 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
2099 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
2100 to return a valid state.)
2101 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
2103 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2105 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
2106 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
2109 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2111 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2112 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2114 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2116 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2118 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2120 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2121 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2123 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2124 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
2125 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
2127 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
2130 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2132 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2133 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2135 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2137 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2139 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2140 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2141 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2142 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2144 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2147 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2148 both forward and backward views of the stack
2149 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2150 Use selector `frame-number';
2151 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2152 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2154 Use readline conditionally.
2156 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2158 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2159 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2160 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2162 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2163 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2166 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2168 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
2170 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
2172 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
2174 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2176 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2178 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2179 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2180 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2181 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2182 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2183 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2184 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2185 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2186 libguile-config-stamp.
2187 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2188 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2189 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2190 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2191 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2193 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2195 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2196 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2197 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2199 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2200 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2201 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2202 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2205 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2207 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2209 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2211 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2213 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2214 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2216 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2218 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2219 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2220 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2221 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2222 objects starting with '#/'.
2224 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2226 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2227 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2228 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2229 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2230 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2231 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2233 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2234 module-modified): New procedures.
2235 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2236 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2238 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2240 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2243 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2245 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2246 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2247 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2249 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2252 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2254 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2255 at multiple calls to read.
2256 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2257 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2258 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2259 continued-lines prompt.
2261 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2262 reading expressions.
2264 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2266 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2267 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2269 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2271 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2272 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2275 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2277 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2278 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2280 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2281 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2282 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2283 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2284 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2287 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2289 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2290 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2292 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2294 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2295 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2296 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2297 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2299 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2301 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2303 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2304 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2305 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2308 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2310 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2311 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2312 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2313 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2314 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2315 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2316 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2317 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2318 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2319 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2320 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2322 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2324 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2325 peeked from the stream.
2326 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2327 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2328 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2330 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2332 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2333 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2335 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2337 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2338 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2339 exiting repl with single control-D.
2341 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2343 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2344 error catching loop after quit received.
2345 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2347 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2348 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2349 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2351 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2352 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2354 * popen.scm: new file.
2356 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2358 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2359 (reverse-iota): removed.
2361 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2363 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2364 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2366 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2368 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2369 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2370 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2371 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2372 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2374 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2376 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2378 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2379 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2381 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2382 Guile's module system.
2384 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2386 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2387 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2388 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2389 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2390 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2391 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2393 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2394 '() when the condition is false.
2396 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2398 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2400 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2402 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2404 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2406 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2407 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2408 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2410 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2412 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2413 argument order for hash-fold.
2415 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2417 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2419 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2420 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2422 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2423 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2424 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2425 has been added to the load path).
2427 Use try-load-module.
2429 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2431 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2432 module between system and user state.
2434 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2436 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2438 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2441 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2443 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2444 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2445 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2447 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2449 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2450 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2451 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2452 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2453 stack frame encountered.
2455 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2456 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2457 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2458 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2461 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2462 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2463 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2464 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2467 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2468 define-module switches:
2470 (define-module (foo)
2473 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2476 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2477 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2478 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2479 module it is a system frame.
2481 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2482 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2483 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2484 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2485 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2487 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2488 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2489 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2490 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2491 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2492 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2494 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2495 status of a module.;
2496 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2497 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2499 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2500 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2501 closure to the module.
2503 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2505 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2507 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2509 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2511 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2513 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2515 Fix from Russ McManus:
2516 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2517 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2518 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2519 either an optional or required value.
2521 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2523 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2525 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2526 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2528 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2529 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2530 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2531 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2533 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2535 * optargs.scm: New file.
2536 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2537 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2539 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2541 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2542 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2543 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2545 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2547 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2548 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2551 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2553 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2555 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2557 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2558 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2559 applied to the module itself.
2561 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2563 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2565 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2566 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2568 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2570 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2572 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2574 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2576 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2578 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2579 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2581 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2583 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2584 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2585 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2586 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2587 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2588 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2589 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2591 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2593 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2594 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2596 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2598 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2599 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2602 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2604 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2606 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2608 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2610 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2612 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2613 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2614 adapt to the new hooks.
2616 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2618 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2619 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2620 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2622 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2623 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2625 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2626 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2627 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2628 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2629 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2630 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2631 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2632 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2633 first to register linked modules.
2635 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2636 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2637 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2639 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2640 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2641 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2642 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2644 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2646 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2649 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2650 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2651 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2653 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2655 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2656 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2657 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2659 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2661 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2662 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2663 result of the last form.
2665 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2667 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2670 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2672 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2673 readline-set!: New options interface.
2675 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2677 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2679 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2680 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2682 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2684 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2685 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2687 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2689 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2690 interactive session.
2691 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2693 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2694 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2696 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2698 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2700 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2702 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2703 read line was empty.
2705 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2707 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2708 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2710 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2712 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2714 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2715 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2716 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2718 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2719 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2721 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2722 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2723 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2725 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2726 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2727 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2728 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2729 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2730 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2732 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2734 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2735 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2737 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2739 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2740 and short vectors #h(...).
2742 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2744 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2745 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2746 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2748 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2750 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2751 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2752 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2754 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2756 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2757 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2759 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2760 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2761 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2762 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2764 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2766 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2769 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2770 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2771 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2772 context with traps enabled.
2774 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2776 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2778 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2780 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2782 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2783 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2784 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2785 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2786 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2788 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2790 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2791 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2793 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2795 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2797 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2799 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2801 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2803 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2805 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2807 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2808 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2810 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2812 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2813 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2814 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2815 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2818 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2819 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2820 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2822 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2824 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2825 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2826 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2827 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2828 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2829 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2830 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2832 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2834 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2836 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2838 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2839 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2840 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2841 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2842 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2843 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2845 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2847 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2848 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2849 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2852 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2854 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2856 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2858 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2860 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2862 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2865 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2867 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2869 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2871 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2872 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2874 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2876 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2877 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2878 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2879 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2881 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2882 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2884 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2886 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2888 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2890 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2891 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2894 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2895 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2897 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2898 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2899 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2901 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2903 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2905 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2907 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2908 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2910 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2912 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2914 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2916 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2917 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2919 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2921 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2924 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2926 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2927 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2929 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2931 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2933 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2935 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2938 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2940 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2941 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2942 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2943 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2944 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2947 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2949 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2950 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2951 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2953 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2955 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2957 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2958 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2960 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2962 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2963 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2964 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2965 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2966 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2967 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2968 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2971 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2973 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2976 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2978 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2979 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2980 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2981 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2982 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2983 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2985 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2987 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2988 usefully so they will work from a script.
2990 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2992 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2993 neighborhood of the record code.
2995 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2997 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2998 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2999 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
3000 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
3002 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3004 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
3005 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
3006 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3008 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3010 Add support for readline function.
3011 * readline.scm: New module.
3012 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
3013 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
3014 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
3016 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
3017 repl-reader to use them.
3018 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
3020 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
3022 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3024 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3025 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
3027 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3029 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
3030 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
3031 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
3033 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3035 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
3036 #f, abort terminates the process.
3037 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
3038 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
3040 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3042 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
3043 print-state, throw it away.
3045 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3047 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
3050 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3052 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
3053 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
3054 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
3055 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
3057 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
3058 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
3060 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3062 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3064 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3066 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3067 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3068 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3069 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3070 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3072 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3073 distribution and installation.
3074 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3076 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3078 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3080 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3082 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3083 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3084 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3086 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3087 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3090 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3092 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3094 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3096 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3098 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3099 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3100 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3101 field a separate argument.
3103 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3105 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3107 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3109 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3113 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3115 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3117 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3119 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3120 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3121 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3122 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3123 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3124 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3126 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3127 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3128 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3129 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3130 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3133 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3135 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
3137 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3139 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3140 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3142 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3144 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3146 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3147 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3148 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3149 expansion inside the slib module.
3151 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3153 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3154 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
3155 (let): New core form.
3156 (if): Removed from core language.
3157 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
3158 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
3159 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3161 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3162 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3163 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3165 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3166 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3169 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3171 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3172 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3174 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3176 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3177 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3178 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3179 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3180 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3181 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3182 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3183 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
3185 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
3187 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3189 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3191 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3192 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3193 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3194 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3195 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3197 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3198 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3199 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3201 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3202 the syncase interface.
3204 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3206 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3207 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3208 workings of the current module system).
3210 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3212 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3213 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
3216 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3218 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
3219 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3220 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3222 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3224 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3225 according to the following priorities:
3226 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3227 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3229 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3230 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3231 (new-interpreter): New function.
3233 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3234 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3235 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3237 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3239 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3241 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3243 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
3245 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3247 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
3249 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
3251 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3253 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3254 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
3257 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3259 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3260 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
3261 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
3262 symbols matching regexp.
3264 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
3265 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3268 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3269 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3270 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
3271 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
3272 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3274 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
3275 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3277 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3279 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
3280 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
3282 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
3283 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
3285 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
3287 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3289 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
3290 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
3291 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
3293 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
3295 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
3296 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
3297 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
3299 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3301 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
3302 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.
3304 Sat Aug 16 18:44:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3306 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
3309 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3311 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3312 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3313 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3315 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3316 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3319 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3320 order to narrow it correctly.
3321 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
3323 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3325 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
3326 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
3328 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3330 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3332 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3334 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3335 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3337 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3339 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3340 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3341 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3343 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3345 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
3348 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3350 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
3351 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
3352 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
3353 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
3354 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
3356 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3358 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
3359 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
3362 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
3364 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3366 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
3367 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
3368 notation, instead of #/ notation.
3370 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
3373 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3375 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
3376 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3377 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3378 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3379 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3380 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3382 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3383 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3384 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3385 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3387 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3389 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3390 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3391 sending in bug reports.
3392 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3393 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3394 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3395 display a warning if the two are different.
3396 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3397 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3398 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3400 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3402 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
3404 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3406 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3407 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3409 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3410 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3411 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3412 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3413 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3414 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3417 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3418 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3421 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3422 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3424 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3427 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3430 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3432 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
3435 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3437 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3438 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3440 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3442 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3443 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3444 to support printing of structures.
3445 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3446 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3447 commented out printing code.
3448 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3449 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
3451 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3453 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
3455 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3457 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
3458 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
3459 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3460 during call to scm-style-repl.
3462 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3464 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3465 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3466 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3467 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3468 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3470 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3472 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3473 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3476 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3478 * regex.scm: New file.
3479 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3480 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3482 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3484 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3485 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3486 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3487 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3489 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3491 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3494 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3496 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3497 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3498 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3500 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3502 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3503 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3506 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3508 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3510 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3512 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3514 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3516 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3517 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3520 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3522 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3523 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3524 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3526 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3528 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3529 the Scheme code like code yet.
3530 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3532 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3534 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3535 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3536 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3538 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3540 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3542 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3545 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3547 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3549 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3551 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3553 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3554 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3555 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3557 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3559 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3560 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3561 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3563 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3565 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3566 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3568 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3570 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3573 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3575 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3577 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3579 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3580 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3582 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3584 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3585 instead of in libguile.
3586 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3587 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3589 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3591 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3593 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3594 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3596 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3598 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3599 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3601 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3603 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3604 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3605 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3606 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3608 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3610 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3611 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3613 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3615 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3617 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3619 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3620 keywords and symbols.
3622 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3624 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3626 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3627 Don't define read-sharp.
3629 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3630 (read-sharp): removed.
3631 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3632 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3634 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3636 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3638 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3639 primitive procedure.)
3641 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3642 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3644 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3646 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3648 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3650 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3652 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3654 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3656 * (exit): alias for quit.
3658 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3660 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3661 return the quit args.
3662 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3663 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3664 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3666 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3668 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3670 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3672 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3673 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3675 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3676 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3678 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3679 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3682 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3684 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3686 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3687 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3688 Change hooks to use these functions.
3690 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3691 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3692 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3694 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3695 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3696 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3697 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3698 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3699 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3700 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3703 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3704 and exit-frame exceptions.
3706 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3707 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3708 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3709 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3710 result; otherwise display "> ".
3711 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3713 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3714 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3715 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3716 repository version runnable.
3718 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3720 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3721 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3722 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3723 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3724 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3725 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3727 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3729 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3730 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3732 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3734 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3735 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3737 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3739 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3741 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3743 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3746 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3748 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3749 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3751 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3753 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3756 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3758 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3759 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3761 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3763 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3765 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3766 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3767 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3768 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3769 dynamic linking of modules.
3770 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3771 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3773 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3775 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3777 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3779 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3782 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3783 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3786 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3788 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3789 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3790 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3792 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3794 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3795 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3798 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3800 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3801 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3802 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3804 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3806 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3807 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3808 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3809 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3811 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3812 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3813 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3814 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3815 (such as the-scm-module).
3817 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3819 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3822 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3824 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3825 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3826 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3828 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3830 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3831 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3832 function, use it accordingly.
3834 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3836 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3837 function of no arguments.
3838 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3839 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3840 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3841 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3842 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3843 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3844 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3845 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3847 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3849 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3850 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3852 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3854 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3855 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3856 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3857 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3858 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3860 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3863 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3864 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3865 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3866 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3868 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3870 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3872 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3873 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3874 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3876 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3879 Added `before-read-hook'.
3881 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3883 (provide): New function.
3885 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3888 (backtrace): New function.
3890 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3891 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3892 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3893 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3894 is found in operator position in a frame.
3896 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3899 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3900 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3901 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3903 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3905 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3907 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3909 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3911 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3913 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3915 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3916 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3918 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3919 so they'll get distributed.
3921 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3922 should see as little clutter as possible.
3923 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3924 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3925 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3927 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3928 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3929 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3930 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3931 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3932 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3933 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3934 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3935 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3936 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3938 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3939 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3941 * test.scm: New file.
3943 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3944 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3945 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3947 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3948 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3950 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3952 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3953 call %load-announce.
3955 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3957 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3958 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3959 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3961 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3963 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3965 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3966 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3967 SCSH (which this isn't).
3969 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3971 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3973 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3975 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3976 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3977 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3979 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3980 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3981 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3982 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3985 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3987 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3989 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3991 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3992 error-catching-loop.
3993 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3994 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3995 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3997 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3998 error-catching-loop.
4000 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4002 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
4003 (make-module): Rework for readability.
4004 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
4005 should be '(), not #f.
4007 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
4008 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
4010 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4012 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
4013 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
4016 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4018 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
4019 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
4020 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
4021 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
4023 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4025 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
4027 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4029 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
4031 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
4032 throw-handler-default.
4033 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
4035 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
4037 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
4038 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
4040 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4042 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
4043 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
4044 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
4045 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
4047 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4049 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
4050 Append "." to the default %load-path.
4051 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
4052 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
4054 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
4055 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
4056 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
4057 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
4060 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4062 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4064 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4067 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4070 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4072 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4074 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4075 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4077 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4079 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4081 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4083 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4085 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4086 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4087 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4088 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4089 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4091 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4092 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4093 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4094 they seem redundant.
4095 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4096 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4097 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4098 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4099 directly files starting with "/").
4100 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4101 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4103 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4105 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4107 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4108 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4109 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4110 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4111 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4112 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4113 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4114 robust to just do it in the C code.
4116 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4118 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4119 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4120 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4121 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4122 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4124 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4126 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4127 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4128 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4130 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4132 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4133 system-error, not every kind of error.
4134 (scm-error): new procedure.
4136 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4138 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4140 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4142 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4143 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4144 of args are supplied.
4145 (%%system-errors): removed.
4146 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4147 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4148 %%handle-system-error.
4149 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4150 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4151 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4152 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4154 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4156 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4157 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4158 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4159 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4161 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4163 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4164 the empty list if they are #f.
4165 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4167 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4169 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4171 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4172 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4173 aborting, just the key and subr.
4174 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4175 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4176 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4178 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4180 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4181 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4182 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4183 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4184 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4186 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4188 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4189 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4190 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4191 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4193 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4195 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4196 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4197 initialize %load-path.
4199 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4200 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4202 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4204 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4205 Add the directory named after the version number.
4206 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4207 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4208 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4209 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4210 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4211 (install): Create the above directories.
4212 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4213 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4215 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4217 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4218 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4219 in the Makefile directly.
4220 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4222 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4224 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4225 here, where people expect to find them.
4227 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4229 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
4230 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
4232 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
4234 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4236 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
4237 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
4239 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4241 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
4242 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
4244 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
4245 weak-key-hash-table.
4247 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4249 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
4250 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
4251 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
4252 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
4253 (%open-file): removed.
4254 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
4255 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
4257 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4259 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
4260 (manifest): Deleted.
4261 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
4262 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
4264 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4266 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
4267 now that they throw errors directly.
4268 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
4269 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
4271 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4273 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
4275 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
4277 * The more things change...
