4 last-command fluid is not yet set.
6 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
8 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
10 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
11 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
12 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
14 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
16 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
17 handle :use-syntax correctly.
19 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
21 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
24 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
26 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
27 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
28 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
29 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
30 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
32 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
34 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
35 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
36 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
38 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
40 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
41 primitives. Thanks Neil!
43 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
45 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
46 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
47 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
48 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
50 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
51 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
52 since there aren't definitions for them.
54 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
55 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
57 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
59 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
60 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
62 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
64 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
65 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
67 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
69 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
70 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
71 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
73 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
75 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
77 * tags.scm: Removed file.

81 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
82 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
84 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
85 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
86 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
89 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
91 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it

115 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
117 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
118 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
120 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
123 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
124 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
125 No longer require `pretty-print'.
127 (slib:error): Delete.
128 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
130 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
135 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
139 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
141 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
142 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
143 rdelim) module. See below.
145 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
147 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
148 include-deprecated-features is true.
150 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
152 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
155 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
156 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
157 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
159 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
160 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
161 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
164 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
166 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
167 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
168 variable, not just a visible one.
169 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
170 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
171 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
172 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
173 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
174 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
176 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
178 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
179 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
181 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
183 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
184 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
186 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
188 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
190 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
192 Added exception notice to all files.
194 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
195 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
196 importing bindings once in a while.
198 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
200 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
201 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
202 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
203 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
204 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
205 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
206 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
207 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
209 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
210 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
212 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
214 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
215 fix command so that it works.
217 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
218 to access unbound variables.
220 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
221 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
222 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
223 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
224 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
226 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
228 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
229 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
230 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
231 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
232 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
233 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
234 argument for process-define-module.
235 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
236 arguments for process-use-modules.
237 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
239 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
241 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
242 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
243 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
246 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
247 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
248 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
250 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.

279 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
280 * match.scm: Likewise.
281 * expect.scm: Likewise.
282 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
284 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
286 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
288 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
290 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
291 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
292 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
293 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
294 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
295 element list when adding "." to it.
296 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
297 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
299 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>

303 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
304 now accepts arg; update callers.
305 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
306 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
308 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
309 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
310 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
311 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
312 `search-documentation-files'.
313 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
314 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
315 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
317 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
318 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
320 (find-documentation): Delete.
321 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.

326 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand-features): Made the feature list public,
327 so it can be manipulated by `use-srfis'.

341 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
343 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
345 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with

354 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
355 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
356 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
357 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
358 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.

360 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
361 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
362 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
363 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
364 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
365 `set-current-module' call.
366 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
367 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

407 (process-use-modules): Arg is now `module-interface-specs',
408 which is passed through to `resolve-interface' as before; nfc.
409 (named-module-use!, top-repl): Abstraction maintenance: Use

590 2001-03-12 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
592 * common-list.scm (count-if): New procedure.
594 2001-03-10 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
596 * buffered-input.scm (make-buffered-input-port): New, more general
597 buffered input procedure. Does not assume that a newline
598 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
600 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
601 make-buffered-input-port.
603 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
605 * match.scm: Don't export defstruct. Use (unquote defstruct) instead.

618 changes in order to comply with paragraph 2a of the GPL. (Thanks
621 2001-03-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
623 * buffered-input.scm (make-line-buffered-input-port): Don't set
624 the continuation flag for leading whitespace. Thanks to Dirk
625 Herrmann for the suggestion.
627 2001-03-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
629 * optargs.scm (rest-arg->keyword-binding-list): Use "'()" instead
632 * buffered-input.scm: New file, with guts of line buffered input
633 port implementation extracted from guile-readline/readline.scm.
635 2001-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
637 * stack-catch.scm: New file.

641 2001-03-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
643 * boot-9.scm, rdelim.scm: Use "'()" instead of "()" in all places
644 where the empty list is meant.
646 2001-02-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
648 * boot-9.scm (save-stack): Use `primitive-eval' for stack
649 cutting. Makes backtraces work again! Also added a reference to
650 save-stack from the place in the repl where the primitive-eval
653 2001-02-25 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
655 * match.scm: New file, including Andrew K. Wright's pattern matcher.
656 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added match.scm.
658 2001-02-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
660 * boot-9.scm (eval-when, eval-case): Renamed `eval-when' to
661 `eval-case', everywhere.
663 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
665 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
666 `interaction-evironment'.
667 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
669 (eval-when): New macro.
670 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
671 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
672 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
674 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the
676 (define-module): Simply call `process-define-module' without any
677 fuss (but only on top-level).
678 (named-module-use!): New function.
679 (top-repl): Do not use `define-module'. Use equivalent low-level
682 2001-02-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
684 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Use `primitive-eval' instead of
686 (define-public): Do not use `eval'.
688 2001-02-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
690 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Display the warning to the
691 `current-error-port'.
693 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
695 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
698 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to
699 `and-let-star.scm'. Updated module name as well.
700 * and-let-star-compat.scm: New file, installed as `and-let*.scm'.
701 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced "and-let*.scm" with
703 (install-data-local): Install "and-let-star-compat.scm" as
704 "and-let*.scm", ignoring errors.
705 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute `and-let-star-compat.scm'.
707 2001-01-26 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
709 This patch fixes a problem reported by Martin Grabmueller about
710 the impossibility to access readline's run-time options.
712 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to
713 conveniently define a group of option interface functions.
715 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
716 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
718 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
720 * boot-9.scm: don't import (ice-9 rdelim) here. it's done
722 * rdelim.scm: export the C primitives too.
723 * documentation.scm: use (ice-9 rdelim).
725 2001-01-21 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
727 * rdelim.scm: new file implementing module (ice-9 rdelim).
728 * ice-9.scm (scm-line-incrementors read-line! read-delimited!
729 read-delimited read-line): moved to rdelim.scm.
730 scm-line-incrementors is not exported.
731 * boot-9.scm: import (ice-9 rdelim) for backwards compatibility,
733 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
734 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
736 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
738 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
739 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
740 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
741 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
742 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
743 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
744 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
746 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
748 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
749 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
751 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
753 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
756 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
758 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
761 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
763 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
765 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
767 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
768 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
769 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
770 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
771 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
772 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
773 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
774 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
775 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
776 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
777 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
778 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
779 make-shared-substring.
781 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
783 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
784 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
785 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
786 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
789 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
791 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
792 and open-output-pipe.
794 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
796 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
797 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
798 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
799 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
800 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
801 Pirotte for the bug report).
802 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
803 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
805 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
807 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
808 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
810 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
812 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
814 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

817 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
820 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
822 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
825 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
827 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
828 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
829 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
831 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
832 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
833 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
834 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
835 actual documentation entries themselves.
837 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
839 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
841 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
843 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
845 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
847 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
848 Convert first argument to a string.
850 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
851 getter-and-setter-syntax,
852 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
853 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
855 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
857 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
859 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
861 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
863 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
865 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
867 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
869 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
870 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
872 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
874 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
877 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

897 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
900 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
902 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
903 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
904 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
905 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
906 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
908 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
910 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
912 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
913 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
915 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
918 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
919 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
920 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
921 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
923 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
925 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.

930 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
931 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
933 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
935 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
936 definition of module-type.
938 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
940 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
942 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
944 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
945 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
947 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
949 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
951 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
953 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
954 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
955 Mikael for the suggestion.
957 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
959 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
960 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
962 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
964 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
967 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
969 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
971 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
973 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
974 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
977 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
978 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
981 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
983 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
984 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
986 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
987 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
988 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
990 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
992 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
994 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
996 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
997 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
999 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1001 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1002 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1004 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1006 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1007 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1009 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1011 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1013 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1015 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1017 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1024 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1026 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1029 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1030 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1031 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1032 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1035 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).

1039 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1041 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1042 (write-all): Removed.
1043 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1044 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1046 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1048 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1049 `proc-documentation'
1051 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1052 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1053 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1054 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1055 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1056 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1057 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1060 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1062 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1064 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1066 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1067 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1068 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1071 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1073 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1074 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1075 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1076 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1077 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1078 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1079 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1081 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1083 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1084 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1086 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1088 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1089 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1091 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1093 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1094 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1095 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1096 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1097 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1098 delete-if! when iterating.
1100 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1102 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1104 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1106 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1108 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1110 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1111 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1112 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1113 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1115 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1117 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1118 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1120 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1122 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1123 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1124 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1125 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1127 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1129 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1130 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1132 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1134 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1135 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1137 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1139 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1142 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1144 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1145 source of the numerous very short changes.
1147 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1149 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1152 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1155 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1157 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1160 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1162 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1163 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1165 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1167 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1170 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1172 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1173 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1174 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1176 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1178 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1179 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1180 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1181 Narazaki for this change.
1183 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1185 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1186 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1189 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1190 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1192 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1194 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1195 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1197 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1199 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1200 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1201 use define-public to export from the module.
1203 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1205 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1206 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1207 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1209 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1211 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1213 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1215 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1216 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1218 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1220 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1222 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1224 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1226 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1228 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1229 long_long uniform vectors.
1231 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1233 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1234 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1236 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1238 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1239 script to create generated files like this one.
1241 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1243 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1244 available before using getpw and getuid.
1245 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1246 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1248 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1249 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1250 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1252 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1253 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1254 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1256 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1257 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1259 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1261 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1263 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1264 than 'exit-debugger.
1266 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1267 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1269 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1271 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1273 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1274 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1275 ("position"): New command.
1276 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1277 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1278 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1279 to return a valid state.)
1280 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1282 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1284 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1285 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1288 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1290 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1291 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1293 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1295 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1297 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1299 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1300 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1302 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1303 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1304 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1306 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1309 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1311 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1312 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1314 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1316 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1318 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1319 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1320 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1321 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1323 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1326 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1327 both forward and backward views of the stack
1328 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1329 Use selector `frame-number';
1330 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1331 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1333 Use readline conditionally.
1335 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1337 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1338 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1339 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1341 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1342 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1345 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1347 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1349 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1351 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1353 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1355 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1357 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1358 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1359 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1360 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1361 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1362 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1363 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1364 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1365 libguile-config-stamp.
1366 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1367 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1368 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1369 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1370 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1372 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1374 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1375 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1376 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1378 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1379 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1380 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1381 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1384 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1386 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1388 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1390 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1392 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1393 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1395 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1397 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1398 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1399 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1400 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1401 objects starting with '#/'.
1403 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1405 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1406 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1407 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1408 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1409 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1410 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1412 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1413 module-modified): New procedures.
1414 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1415 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1417 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1419 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1422 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1424 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1425 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1426 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1428 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1431 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1433 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1434 at multiple calls to read.
1435 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1436 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1437 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1438 continued-lines prompt.
1440 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1441 reading expressions.
1443 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1445 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1446 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1448 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1450 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1451 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1454 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1456 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1457 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1459 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1460 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1461 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1462 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1463 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1466 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1468 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1469 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1471 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1473 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1474 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1475 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1476 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1478 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1480 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1482 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1483 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1484 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1487 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1489 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1490 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1491 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1492 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1493 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1494 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1495 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1496 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1497 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1498 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1499 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1501 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1503 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1504 peeked from the stream.
1505 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1506 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1507 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1509 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1511 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1512 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1514 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1516 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1517 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1518 exiting repl with single control-D.
1520 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1522 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1523 error catching loop after quit received.
1524 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1526 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1527 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1528 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1530 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1531 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1533 * popen.scm: new file.
1535 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1537 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1538 (reverse-iota): removed.
1540 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1542 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1543 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1545 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1547 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1548 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1549 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1550 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1551 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1553 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1555 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1557 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1558 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1560 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1561 Guile's module system.
1563 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1565 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1566 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1567 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1568 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1569 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1570 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1572 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1573 '() when the condition is false.
1575 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1577 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1579 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1581 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1583 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1585 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1586 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1587 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1589 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1591 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1592 argument order for hash-fold.
1594 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1596 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1598 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1599 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1601 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1602 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1603 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1604 has been added to the load path).
1606 Use try-load-module.
1608 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1610 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1611 module between system and user state.
1613 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1615 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1617 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1620 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1622 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1623 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1624 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1626 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1628 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1629 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1630 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1631 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1632 stack frame encountered.
1634 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1635 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1636 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1637 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1640 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1641 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1642 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1643 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
1646 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
1647 define-module switches:
1649 (define-module (foo)
1652 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
1655 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
1656 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
1657 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
1658 module it is a system frame.
1660 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
1661 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
1662 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
1663 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
1664 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
1666 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
1667 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
1668 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
1669 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
1670 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
1671 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
1673 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
1674 status of a module.;
1675 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
1676 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
1678 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
1679 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
1680 closure to the module.
1682 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
1684 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1686 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
1688 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1690 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
1692 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1694 Fix from Russ McManus:
1695 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
1696 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
1697 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
1698 either an optional or required value.
1700 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1702 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
1704 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
1705 of the '() key, not `rest'.
1707 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
1708 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
1709 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
1710 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1712 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1714 * optargs.scm: New file.
1715 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
1716 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
1718 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1720 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
1721 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
1722 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1724 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1726 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
1727 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
1730 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1732 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1734 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1736 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
1737 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
1738 applied to the module itself.
1740 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1742 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
1744 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
1745 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
1747 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1749 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
1751 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1753 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
1755 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1757 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
1758 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
1760 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1762 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
1763 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
1764 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
1765 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
1766 among BINDINGS is referenced.
1767 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
1768 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
1770 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1772 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
1773 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
1775 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1777 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
1778 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
1781 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1783 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
1785 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1787 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
1789 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1791 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
1792 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
1793 adapt to the new hooks.
1795 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1797 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
1798 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
1799 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
1801 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
1802 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
1804 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
1805 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
1806 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
1807 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
1808 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
1809 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
1810 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
1811 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
1812 first to register linked modules.
1814 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
1815 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
1816 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
1818 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
1819 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
1820 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
1821 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
1823 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
1825 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
1828 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
1829 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
1830 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
1832 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1834 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
1835 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
1836 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
1838 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1840 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
1841 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
1842 result of the last form.
1844 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1846 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
1849 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
1851 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
1852 readline-set!: New options interface.
1854 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
1856 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1858 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
1859 at the end of boot-9.scm.
1861 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1863 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
1864 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1866 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1868 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
1869 interactive session.
1870 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
1872 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
1873 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
1875 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1877 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
1879 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1881 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
1882 read line was empty.
1884 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1886 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
1887 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
1889 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
1891 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
1893 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
1894 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
1895 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
1897 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
1898 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
1900 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
1901 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
1902 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
1904 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
1905 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
1906 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
1907 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
1908 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
1909 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
1911 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1913 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1914 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1916 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1918 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
1919 and short vectors #h(...).
1921 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1923 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
1924 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
1925 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
1927 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1929 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
1930 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
1931 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
1933 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1935 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
1936 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
1938 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
1939 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
1940 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
1941 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
1943 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1945 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
1948 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
1949 order to allow the empty list as arg.
1950 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
1951 context with traps enabled.
1953 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1955 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
1957 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
1959 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1961 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
1962 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
1963 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
1964 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
1965 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
1967 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1969 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
1970 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
1972 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1974 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
1976 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
1978 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
1980 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1982 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
1984 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1986 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
1987 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
1989 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1991 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
1992 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
1993 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
1994 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
1997 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
1998 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
1999 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2001 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2003 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2004 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2005 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2006 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2007 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2008 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2009 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2011 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2013 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2015 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2017 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2018 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2019 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2020 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2021 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2022 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2024 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2026 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2027 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2028 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2031 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2033 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2035 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2037 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2039 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2041 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2044 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2046 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2048 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2050 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2051 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2053 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2055 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2056 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2057 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2058 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2060 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2061 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2063 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2065 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2067 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2069 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2070 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2073 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2074 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2076 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2077 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2078 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2080 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2082 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2084 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2086 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2087 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2089 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2091 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2093 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2095 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2096 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2098 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2100 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2103 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2105 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2106 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2108 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2110 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2112 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2114 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2117 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2119 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2120 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2121 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2122 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2123 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2126 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2128 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2129 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2130 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2132 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2134 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2136 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2137 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2139 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2141 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2142 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2143 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2144 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2145 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2146 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2147 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2150 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2152 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2155 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2157 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2158 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2159 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2160 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2161 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2162 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2164 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2166 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2167 usefully so they will work from a script.
2169 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2171 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2172 neighborhood of the record code.
2174 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2176 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2177 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2178 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2179 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2181 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2183 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2184 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2185 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2187 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2189 Add support for readline function.
2190 * readline.scm: New module.
2191 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2192 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2193 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2195 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2196 repl-reader to use them.
2197 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2199 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2201 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2203 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,

2215 #f, abort terminates the process.
2216 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2217 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2219 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

2234 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2236 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2237 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2239 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2241 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2243 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2245 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2246 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2247 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2248 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2249 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2251 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for

2261 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2262 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2263 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2265 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2266 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2269 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2271 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2273 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2275 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2277 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2278 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2279 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2280 field a separate argument.
2282 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2284 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2286 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2288 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty

2301 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2302 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2303 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2305 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2306 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2307 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2308 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2309 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2312 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

2323 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2325 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2326 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2327 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2328 expansion inside the slib module.
2330 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2332 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.

2342 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2344 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2345 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2348 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2350 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2351 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2353 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.

2368 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2370 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2371 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2372 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2373 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2374 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2376 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2377 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2378 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2380 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2381 the syncase interface.
2383 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2385 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2386 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2387 workings of the current module system).
2389 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2391 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2392 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
2395 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2397 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).

2401 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2403 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2404 according to the following priorities:
2405 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2406 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2408 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2409 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2410 (new-interpreter): New function.
2412 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2413 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2414 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2416 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2418 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2420 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2422 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".

2430 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2432 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2433 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the

2438 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2439 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.

2444 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2447 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when

2451 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2453 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2454 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2456 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2458 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2459 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2461 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2462 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2464 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2466 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2468 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2469 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.

2474 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.

2488 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2490 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2491 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2492 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2494 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2495 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2498 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2499 order to narrow it correctly.
2500 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

2507 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2509 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.

2513 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2514 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2516 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2518 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2519 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2520 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2522 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2524 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2527 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2529 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,

2554 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2555 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2556 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2557 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2558 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2559 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2561 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2562 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2563 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2564 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2566 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2568 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2569 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2570 sending in bug reports.
2571 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2572 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2573 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2574 display a warning if the two are different.
2575 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2576 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2577 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

2583 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2585 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2586 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2588 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2589 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2590 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2591 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2592 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2593 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2596 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2597 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2600 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2601 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2603 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2606 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2609 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

2614 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2616 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2617 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2619 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2621 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2622 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2623 to support printing of structures.
2624 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2625 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2626 commented out printing code.
2627 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2628 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".

2637 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2638 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2639 during call to scm-style-repl.
2641 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2643 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2644 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2645 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
2646 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
2647 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
2649 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2651 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
2652 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
2655 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
2657 * regex.scm: New file.
2658 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
2659 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.

2664 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
2665 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
2666 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
2668 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2670 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
2673 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2675 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
2676 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
2677 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
2679 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2681 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
2682 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
2685 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2687 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2689 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2691 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2693 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2695 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
2696 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
2699 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2701 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
2702 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
2703 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
2705 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2707 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
2708 the Scheme code like code yet.
2709 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
2711 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2713 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
2714 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
2715 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
2717 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2719 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
2721 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
2724 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2726 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
2728 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2730 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
2732 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
2733 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
2734 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
2736 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2738 Get 'make dist' to work again.
2739 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
2740 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
2742 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
2744 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
2745 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2747 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2749 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
2752 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2754 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
2756 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2758 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
2759 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
2761 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2763 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
2764 instead of in libguile.
2765 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
2766 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
2768 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2770 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
2772 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
2773 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
2775 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2777 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
2778 sockaddr:port): new functions.
2780 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2782 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
2783 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
2784 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
2785 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
2787 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2789 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
2790 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
2792 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2794 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
2796 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2798 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
2799 keywords and symbols.
2801 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2803 * slib.scm: update read usage.
2805 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
2806 Don't define read-sharp.
2808 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
2809 (read-sharp): removed.
2810 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
2811 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
2813 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2815 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
2817 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
2818 primitive procedure.)
2820 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
2821 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
2823 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2825 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
2827 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2829 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
2831 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2833 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
2835 * (exit): alias for quit.
2837 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2839 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
2840 return the quit args.
2841 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
2842 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
2843 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
2845 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
2847 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2849 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
2851 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
2852 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
2854 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
2855 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
2857 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
2858 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
2861 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2863 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
2865 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
2866 (add-hooks!): New macro.
2867 Change hooks to use these functions.
2869 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
2870 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
2871 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
2873 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
2874 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
2875 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
2876 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
2877 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
2878 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
2879 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
2882 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
2883 and exit-frame exceptions.
2885 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
2886 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
2887 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
2888 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
2889 result; otherwise display "> ".
2890 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
2892 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
2893 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
2894 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
2895 repository version runnable.
2897 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2899 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
2900 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
2901 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
2902 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
2903 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
2904 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
2906 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2908 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
2909 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
2911 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
2913 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
2914 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
2916 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2918 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
2920 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2922 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
2925 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2927 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
2928 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
2930 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2932 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
2935 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2937 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
2938 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
2940 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2942 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
2944 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
2945 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
2946 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
2947 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
2948 dynamic linking of modules.
2949 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
2950 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
2952 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2954 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
2956 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2958 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
2961 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
2962 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
2965 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2967 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
2968 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
2969 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
2971 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2973 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
2974 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
2977 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2979 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
2980 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
2981 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
2983 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2985 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
2986 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
2987 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
2988 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
2990 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
2991 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
2992 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
2993 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
2994 (such as the-scm-module).
2996 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2998 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3001 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3003 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3004 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3005 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3007 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3009 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3010 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3011 function, use it accordingly.
3013 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3015 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3016 function of no arguments.
3017 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3018 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3019 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3020 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3021 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3022 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3023 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3024 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3026 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3028 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3029 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3031 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3033 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3034 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3035 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3036 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3037 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3039 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3042 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3043 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3044 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3045 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3047 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3049 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3051 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3052 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3053 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3055 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3058 Added `before-read-hook'.
3060 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3062 (provide): New function.
3064 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3067 (backtrace): New function.
3069 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3070 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3071 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3072 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3073 is found in operator position in a frame.
3075 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3078 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3079 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3080 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3082 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3084 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3086 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3088 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3090 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3092 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3094 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3095 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3097 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3098 so they'll get distributed.
3100 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3101 should see as little clutter as possible.
3102 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3103 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3104 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3106 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3107 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3108 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3109 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3110 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3111 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3112 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3113 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3114 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3115 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3117 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3118 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3120 * test.scm: New file.
3122 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3123 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3124 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3126 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3127 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3129 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3131 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3132 call %load-announce.
3134 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3136 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3137 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3138 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3140 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3142 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3144 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3145 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3146 SCSH (which this isn't).
3148 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3150 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3152 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3154 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3155 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3156 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3158 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3159 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3160 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3161 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3164 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3166 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3168 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3170 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3171 error-catching-loop.
3172 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3173 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3174 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3176 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3177 error-catching-loop.
3179 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3181 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3182 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3183 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3184 should be '(), not #f.
3186 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3187 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3189 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3191 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3192 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3195 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3197 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3198 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3199 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3200 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3202 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3204 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3206 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3208 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3210 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3211 throw-handler-default.
3212 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3214 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3216 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3217 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3219 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3221 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3222 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3223 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3224 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3226 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3228 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3229 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3230 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3231 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3233 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3234 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3235 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3236 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3239 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3241 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3243 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3246 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3249 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3251 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3253 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3254 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3256 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3258 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3260 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3262 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3264 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3265 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3266 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3267 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3268 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3270 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3271 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3272 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3273 they seem redundant.
3274 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3275 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3276 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3277 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3278 directly files starting with "/").
3279 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3280 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3282 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3284 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3286 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3287 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3288 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3289 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3290 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3291 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3292 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3293 robust to just do it in the C code.
3295 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3297 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3298 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3299 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3300 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3301 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3303 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3305 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3306 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3307 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3309 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3311 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3312 system-error, not every kind of error.
3313 (scm-error): new procedure.
3315 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3317 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3319 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3321 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3322 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3323 of args are supplied.
3324 (%%system-errors): removed.
3325 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3326 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3327 %%handle-system-error.
3328 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3329 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3330 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3331 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3333 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3335 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3336 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3337 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3338 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3340 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3342 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3343 the empty list if they are #f.
3344 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3346 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3348 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3350 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3351 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3352 aborting, just the key and subr.
3353 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3354 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3355 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3357 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3359 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3360 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3361 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3362 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3363 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3365 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3367 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3368 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3369 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3370 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3372 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3374 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3375 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3376 initialize %load-path.
3378 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3379 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3381 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3383 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3384 Add the directory named after the version number.
3385 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3386 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3387 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3388 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3389 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3390 (install): Create the above directories.
3391 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3392 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3394 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3396 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3397 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3398 in the Makefile directly.
3399 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3401 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3403 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3404 here, where people expect to find them.
3406 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3408 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3409 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3411 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3413 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3415 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3416 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3418 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3420 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
3421 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3423 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
3424 weak-key-hash-table.
3426 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3428 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3429 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3430 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
3431 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
3432 (%open-file): removed.
3433 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3434 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3436 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3438 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3439 (manifest): Deleted.
3440 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
3441 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3443 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3445 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3446 now that they throw errors directly.
3447 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3448 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
3450 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3452 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
3454 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
