63 2002-11-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
65 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it

85 2002-11-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
87 * format.scm (format): Use 'monitor' properly. Not the definition

160 should be unnecessary now.
162 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
164 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Look for use-emacs-interface in

270 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
272 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
274 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
275 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
276 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.
278 * psyntax.pp: updated to reflect new syncase.scm.
280 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

290 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
292 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
293 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
294 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
295 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
297 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
299 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
301 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
302 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is

305 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
307 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

330 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
331 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
332 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of

337 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
340 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
342 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
343 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
344 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
345 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
347 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
349 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
350 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,

380 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission

384 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
386 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
388 (feature?): Deprecated.

418 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
420 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
421 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
422 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
424 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
426 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
427 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
429 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

433 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>

446 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
448 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
449 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
450 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
452 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
454 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
455 handle :use-syntax correctly.

462 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
464 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in

467 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
468 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
470 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

479 primitives. Thanks Neil!
481 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
483 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
484 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
485 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
486 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
488 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
489 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
490 since there aren't definitions for them.
492 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
493 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
495 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
497 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
498 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
500 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
502 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
503 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
505 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
507 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
508 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
509 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
511 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
513 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
515 * tags.scm: Removed file.

527 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
529 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
530 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
532 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
534 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
535 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
537 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
538 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
539 evaluator trap options.)

543 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
545 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
547 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
549 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
551 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
553 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
555 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
556 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
558 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
561 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.

573 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
577 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
579 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
580 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
581 rdelim) module. See below.
583 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
585 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
586 include-deprecated-features is true.
588 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
590 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
593 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
594 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
595 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
597 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
598 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
599 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
602 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
604 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
605 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
606 variable, not just a visible one.
607 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
608 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
609 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
610 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
611 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
612 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
614 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
616 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
617 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
619 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
621 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
622 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.

633 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
634 importing bindings once in a while.
636 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
638 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked

656 to access unbound variables.
658 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
659 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
660 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
661 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
662 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
664 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
666 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.

731 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.

733 element list when adding "." to it.

795 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the

1174 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1176 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1177 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1178 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1179 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1180 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1181 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1182 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1184 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1186 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1187 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1189 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1191 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1194 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1196 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1199 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1201 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1203 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1205 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1206 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1207 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1208 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1209 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
1210 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
1211 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1212 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,
1213 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char,
1214 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1215 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1216 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1217 make-shared-substring.
1219 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1221 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1222 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1223 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1224 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1227 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1229 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1230 and open-output-pipe.
1232 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1234 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1235 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1236 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1237 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1238 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1239 Pirotte for the bug report).
1240 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1241 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1243 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1245 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.
1246 Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the patch.
1248 2000-10-15 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1250 * optargs.scm: Fix typos in commentary for bound? and lambda*.
1252 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1254 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): regexp-exec does not
1255 accept symbol arguments any more. Thanks to Dale P. Smith for the
1258 2000-09-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1260 * posix.scm (setgrent): pass #t, not #f. thanks to
1263 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1265 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
1266 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1267 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1269 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1270 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1271 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1272 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1273 actual documentation entries themselves.
1275 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1277 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1279 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1281 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
1283 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1285 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gentemp instead of gensym;
1286 Convert first argument to a string.
1288 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax,
1289 getter-and-setter-syntax,
1290 delegating-getter-and-setter-syntax): Call gensym with string
1291 argument. (Thanks to Dale P. Smith.)
1293 * oldprint.scm (print-table-add!): Ditto.
1295 * boot-9.scm (gentemp): Moved to symbols.c.
1297 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1299 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1301 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1303 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1305 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1307 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1308 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1309 even worked... /mdj.
1310 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1312 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1315 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1317 * psyntax.ss (set!): Added generalized set! support to core syntax
1320 2000-08-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1322 * optargs.scm (#\&): Changed #:allow-other-keys-value to
1323 #:allow-other-keys. Thanks to Bill Schottstaedt!
1325 2000-08-17 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1327 * optargs.scm (#\&): Emit warning about `#&' being deprecated.
1329 2000-08-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1331 * optargs.scm: Replaced `#&' reader syntax with keywords.
1333 2000-08-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1335 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Made tail-recursive. (Thanks to
1338 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1340 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1341 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1342 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1343 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1344 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1346 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1348 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1350 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1351 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1353 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1356 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1357 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1358 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1359 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1361 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1363 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.
1364 (defmacro:eval): Eval in (interaction-environment).
1366 * safe-r5rs.scm (eval): Removed definition.
1368 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1369 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1371 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1373 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1374 definition of module-type.
1376 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1378 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1380 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1382 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done
1383 *after* all used interfaces has been added.
1385 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1387 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1389 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1391 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1392 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1393 Mikael for the suggestion.
1395 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1397 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1398 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1400 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1402 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1405 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1407 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1409 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1411 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1412 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1415 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1416 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1419 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1421 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1422 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1424 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1425 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1426 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1428 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1430 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1432 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1434 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1435 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1437 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1439 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1440 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1442 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1444 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1445 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1447 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1449 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1451 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1453 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1455 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1457 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Set init value for uses to
1459 (make-modules-in): Name modules with their real (= full) names.
1460 (the-root-module, the-scm-module): Named `(guile)' instead of
1462 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1464 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1467 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1468 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1469 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1470 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1473 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1475 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1477 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1479 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1480 (write-all): Removed.
1481 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1482 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1484 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1486 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1487 `proc-documentation'
1489 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1490 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1491 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1492 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1493 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1494 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1495 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1498 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1500 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1502 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1504 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1505 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1506 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1509 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1511 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1512 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1513 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1514 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1515 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1516 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1517 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1519 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1521 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1522 accept complex numbers as parameter.
1524 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1526 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1527 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1529 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1531 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1532 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1533 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1534 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1535 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1536 delete-if! when iterating.
1538 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1540 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1542 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1544 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
1546 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1548 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1549 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1550 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1551 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1553 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1555 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1556 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1558 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1560 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1561 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1562 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1563 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1565 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1567 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1568 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1570 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1572 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1573 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1575 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1577 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1580 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1582 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1583 source of the numerous very short changes.
1585 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1587 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1590 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1593 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1595 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1598 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1600 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1601 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1603 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1605 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1608 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1610 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1611 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1612 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1614 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1616 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1617 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1618 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1619 Narazaki for this change.
1621 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1623 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1624 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1627 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1628 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1630 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1632 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1633 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1635 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1637 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1638 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1639 use define-public to export from the module.
1641 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1643 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1644 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1645 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1647 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1649 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1651 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1653 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1654 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1656 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1658 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1660 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1662 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1664 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1666 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1667 long_long uniform vectors.
1669 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1671 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1672 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1674 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1676 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1677 script to create generated files like this one.
1679 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1681 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1682 available before using getpw and getuid.
1683 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1684 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1686 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1687 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1688 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1690 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1691 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1692 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1694 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1695 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1697 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1699 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1701 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1702 than 'exit-debugger.
1704 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1705 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1707 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1709 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1711 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1712 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1713 ("position"): New command.
1714 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1715 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1716 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1717 to return a valid state.)
1718 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1720 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1722 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1723 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1726 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1728 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1729 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1731 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1733 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1735 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1737 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1738 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1740 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1741 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1742 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1744 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1747 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1749 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1750 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1752 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1754 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1756 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1757 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1758 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1759 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1761 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1764 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1765 both forward and backward views of the stack
1766 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1767 Use selector `frame-number';
1768 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1769 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1771 Use readline conditionally.
1773 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1775 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1776 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1777 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1779 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1780 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1783 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1785 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1787 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1789 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1791 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1793 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1795 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1796 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1797 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1798 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1799 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1800 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1801 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1802 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1803 libguile-config-stamp.
1804 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1805 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1806 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1807 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1808 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1810 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1812 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1813 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1814 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1816 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1817 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1818 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1819 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1822 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1824 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1826 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1828 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1830 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1831 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1833 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1835 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1836 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1837 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1838 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1839 objects starting with '#/'.
1841 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1843 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1844 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1845 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1846 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1847 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1848 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1850 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1851 module-modified): New procedures.
1852 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1853 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1855 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1857 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1860 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1862 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1863 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1864 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1866 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1869 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1871 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1872 at multiple calls to read.
1873 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1874 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1875 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1876 continued-lines prompt.
1878 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1879 reading expressions.
1881 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1883 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1884 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1886 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1888 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1889 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1892 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1894 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1895 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1897 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1898 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1899 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1900 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1901 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1904 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1906 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1907 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1909 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1911 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1912 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1913 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1914 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1916 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1918 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1920 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1921 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1922 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1925 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1927 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1928 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1929 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1930 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1931 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1932 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1933 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1934 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1935 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1936 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1937 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1939 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1941 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1942 peeked from the stream.
1943 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1944 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1945 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1947 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1949 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1950 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1952 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1954 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1955 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1956 exiting repl with single control-D.
1958 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1960 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1961 error catching loop after quit received.
1962 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1964 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1965 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1966 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1968 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1969 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1971 * popen.scm: new file.
1973 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1975 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1976 (reverse-iota): removed.
1978 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1980 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1981 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1983 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1985 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1986 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1987 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1988 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1989 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1991 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1993 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1995 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1996 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1998 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1999 Guile's module system.
2001 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2003 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2004 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2005 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2006 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2007 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2008 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2010 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2011 '() when the condition is false.
2013 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2015 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2017 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2019 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2021 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2023 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2024 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2025 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2027 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2029 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2030 argument order for hash-fold.
2032 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2034 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2036 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2037 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2039 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2040 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2041 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2042 has been added to the load path).
2044 Use try-load-module.
2046 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2048 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2049 module between system and user state.
2051 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2053 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2055 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2058 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2060 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2061 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2062 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2064 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2066 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2067 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2068 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2069 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2070 stack frame encountered.
2072 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2073 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2074 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2075 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2078 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2079 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2080 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2081 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2084 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2085 define-module switches:
2087 (define-module (foo)
2090 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2093 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2094 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2095 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2096 module it is a system frame.
2098 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2099 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2100 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2101 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2102 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2104 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2105 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2106 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2107 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2108 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2109 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2111 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2112 status of a module.;
2113 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2114 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2116 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2117 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2118 closure to the module.
2120 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2122 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2124 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2126 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2128 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2130 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2132 Fix from Russ McManus:
2133 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2134 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2135 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2136 either an optional or required value.
2138 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2140 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2142 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2143 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2145 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2146 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2147 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2148 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2150 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2152 * optargs.scm: New file.
2153 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2154 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2156 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2158 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2159 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2160 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2162 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2164 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2165 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2168 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2170 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2172 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2174 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2175 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2176 applied to the module itself.
2178 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2180 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2182 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2183 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2185 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2187 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2189 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2191 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2193 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2195 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2196 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2198 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2200 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2201 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2202 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2203 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2204 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2205 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2206 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2208 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2210 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2211 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2213 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2215 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2216 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2219 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2221 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2223 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2225 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2227 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2229 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2230 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2231 adapt to the new hooks.
2233 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2235 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2236 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2237 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2239 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2240 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2242 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2243 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2244 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2245 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2246 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2247 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2248 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2249 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2250 first to register linked modules.
2252 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2253 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2254 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2256 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2257 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2258 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2259 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2261 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2263 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2266 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2267 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2268 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2270 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2272 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2273 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2274 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2276 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2278 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2279 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2280 result of the last form.
2282 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2284 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2287 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2289 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2290 readline-set!: New options interface.
2292 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2294 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2296 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2297 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2299 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2301 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2302 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2304 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2306 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2307 interactive session.
2308 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2310 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2311 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2313 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2315 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2317 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2319 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2320 read line was empty.
2322 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2324 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2325 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2327 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2329 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2331 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2332 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2333 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2335 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2336 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2338 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2339 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2340 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2342 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2343 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2344 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2345 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2346 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2347 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2349 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2351 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2352 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2354 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2356 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2357 and short vectors #h(...).
2359 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2361 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2362 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2363 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2365 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2367 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2368 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2369 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2371 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2373 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2374 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2376 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2377 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2378 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2379 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2381 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2383 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2386 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2387 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2388 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2389 context with traps enabled.
2391 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2393 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2395 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2397 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2399 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2400 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2401 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2402 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2403 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2405 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2407 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2408 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2410 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2412 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2414 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2416 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2418 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2420 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2422 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2424 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2425 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2427 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2429 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2430 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2431 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2432 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2435 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2436 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2437 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2439 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2441 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2442 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2443 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2444 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2445 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2446 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2447 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2449 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2451 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2453 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2455 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2456 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2457 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2458 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2459 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2460 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2462 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2464 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2465 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2466 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2469 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2471 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2473 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2475 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2477 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2479 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2482 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2484 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2486 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2488 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2489 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2491 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2493 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2494 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2495 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2496 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2498 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2499 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2501 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2503 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2505 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2507 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2508 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2511 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2512 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2514 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2515 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2516 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2518 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2520 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2522 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2524 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2525 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2527 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2529 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2531 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2533 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2534 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2536 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2538 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2541 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2543 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2544 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2546 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2548 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2550 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2552 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2555 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2557 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2558 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2559 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2560 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2561 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2564 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2566 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2567 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2568 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2570 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2572 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2574 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2575 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2577 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2579 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2580 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2581 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2582 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2583 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2584 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2585 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2588 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2590 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2593 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2595 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2596 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2597 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2598 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2599 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2600 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2602 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2604 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2605 usefully so they will work from a script.
2607 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2609 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2610 neighborhood of the record code.
2612 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2614 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2615 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2616 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2617 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2619 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2621 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2622 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
2623 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2625 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2627 Add support for readline function.
2628 * readline.scm: New module.
2629 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2630 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2631 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2633 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2634 repl-reader to use them.
2635 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2637 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2639 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2641 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2642 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
2644 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2646 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
2647 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
2648 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
2650 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2652 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
2653 #f, abort terminates the process.
2654 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2655 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2657 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2659 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
2660 print-state, throw it away.
2662 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2664 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
2667 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2669 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
2670 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
2671 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
2672 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
2674 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
2675 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
2677 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2679 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2681 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2683 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2684 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2685 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2686 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2687 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2689 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
2690 distribution and installation.
2691 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2693 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2695 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
2697 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2699 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
2700 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
2701 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2703 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2704 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2707 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2709 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2711 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2713 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2715 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2716 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2717 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2718 field a separate argument.
2720 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2722 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2724 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2726 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
2730 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2732 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
2734 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2736 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
2737 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
2738 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
2739 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2740 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2741 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2743 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2744 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2745 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2746 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2747 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2750 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2752 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
2754 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2756 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
2757 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
2759 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2761 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2763 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2764 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2765 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2766 expansion inside the slib module.

2778 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
2779 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2780 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2782 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2783 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has

2806 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2808 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2809 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2810 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2811 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2812 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2814 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2815 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2816 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2818 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2819 the syncase interface.
2821 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2823 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2824 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner

2829 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2830 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

2841 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2842 according to the following priorities:
2843 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2844 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2846 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2847 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2848 (new-interpreter): New function.
2850 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2851 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2852 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).

2892 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2894 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2896 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.

2899 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2900 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2902 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2904 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2906 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling

2926 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2928 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2929 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2930 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2932 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2933 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2936 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2937 order to narrow it correctly.
2938 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

2952 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2954 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2956 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2957 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2958 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2960 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2962 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2965 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>

2992 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2993 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2994 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2995 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2996 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2997 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2999 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3000 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3001 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3002 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3004 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3006 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3007 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3008 sending in bug reports.
3009 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3010 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3011 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3012 display a warning if the two are different.
3013 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3014 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.

3023 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3024 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3026 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3027 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3028 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3029 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3030 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3031 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3034 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3035 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3038 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3039 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3041 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3044 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3047 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>

3055 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3057 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3059 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3060 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3061 to support printing of structures.
3062 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3063 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3064 commented out printing code.
3065 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3066 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".

3077 during call to scm-style-repl.
3079 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3081 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3082 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3083 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3084 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3085 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3087 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3089 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3090 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3093 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3095 * regex.scm: New file.
3096 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.

3106 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3108 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3111 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3113 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3114 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3115 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3117 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3119 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3120 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy

3125 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.

3129 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3131 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3133 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3134 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3137 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3139 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3140 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3141 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3143 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3145 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3146 the Scheme code like code yet.
3147 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3149 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3151 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3152 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3153 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3155 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3157 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the

3164 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3166 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3168 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3170 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3171 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3172 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3174 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>

3220 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3221 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,

3225 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3227 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,

3241 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3243 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3244 Don't define read-sharp.
3246 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3247 (read-sharp): removed.
3248 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take

3275 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3277 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3278 return the quit args.
3279 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3280 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3281 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3283 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3285 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3287 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3289 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3290 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3292 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3293 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3295 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3296 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3299 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3301 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3303 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3304 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3305 Change hooks to use these functions.
3307 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3308 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3309 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3311 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3312 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3313 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3314 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3315 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3316 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3317 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3320 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3321 and exit-frame exceptions.
3323 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3324 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3325 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3326 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3327 result; otherwise display "> ".
3328 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3330 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3331 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3332 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3333 repository version runnable.
3335 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3337 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3338 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3339 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3340 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3341 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3342 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3344 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3346 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3347 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3349 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3351 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3352 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3354 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3356 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3358 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3360 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3363 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3365 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3366 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3368 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3370 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3373 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3375 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3376 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3378 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3380 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3382 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3383 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3384 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3385 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3386 dynamic linking of modules.
3387 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3388 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3390 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3392 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3394 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3396 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3399 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3400 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3403 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3405 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3406 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3407 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3409 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3411 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3412 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3415 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3417 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3418 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3419 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3421 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3423 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3424 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3425 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3426 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3428 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3429 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3430 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3431 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3432 (such as the-scm-module).
3434 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3436 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3439 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3441 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3442 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3443 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3445 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3447 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3448 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3449 function, use it accordingly.
3451 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3453 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3454 function of no arguments.
3455 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3456 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3457 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3458 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3459 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3460 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3461 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3462 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3464 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3466 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3467 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3469 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3471 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3472 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3473 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3474 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3475 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3477 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3480 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3481 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3482 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3483 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3485 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3487 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3489 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3490 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3491 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3493 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3496 Added `before-read-hook'.
3498 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3500 (provide): New function.
3502 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3505 (backtrace): New function.
3507 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3508 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3509 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3510 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3511 is found in operator position in a frame.
3513 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3516 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3517 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3518 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3520 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3522 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3524 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3526 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3528 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3530 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3532 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3533 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3535 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3536 so they'll get distributed.
3538 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3539 should see as little clutter as possible.
3540 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3541 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3542 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3544 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3545 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3546 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3547 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3548 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3549 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3550 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3551 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3552 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3553 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3555 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3556 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3558 * test.scm: New file.
3560 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3561 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3562 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3564 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3565 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3567 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3569 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3570 call %load-announce.
3572 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3574 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3575 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3576 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3578 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3580 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3582 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3583 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3584 SCSH (which this isn't).
3586 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3588 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3590 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3592 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3593 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3594 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3596 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3597 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3598 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3599 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3602 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3604 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3606 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3608 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3609 error-catching-loop.
3610 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3611 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3612 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3614 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3615 error-catching-loop.
3617 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3619 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3620 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3621 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3622 should be '(), not #f.
3624 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3625 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3627 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3629 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3630 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3633 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3635 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3636 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3637 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3638 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3640 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3642 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3644 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3646 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3648 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3649 throw-handler-default.
3650 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3652 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3654 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3655 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3657 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3659 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3660 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3661 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3662 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3664 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3666 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3667 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3668 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3669 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3671 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3672 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3673 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3674 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3677 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3679 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3681 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3684 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3687 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3689 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3691 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3692 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3694 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3696 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3698 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3700 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3702 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3703 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3704 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3705 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3706 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3708 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3709 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3710 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3711 they seem redundant.
3712 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3713 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3714 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3715 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3716 directly files starting with "/").
3717 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3718 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3720 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3722 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3724 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3725 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3726 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3727 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3728 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3729 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3730 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3731 robust to just do it in the C code.
3733 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3735 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3736 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3737 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3738 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3739 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3741 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3743 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3744 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3745 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3747 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3749 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3750 system-error, not every kind of error.
3751 (scm-error): new procedure.
3753 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3755 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3757 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3759 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3760 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3761 of args are supplied.
3762 (%%system-errors): removed.
3763 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3764 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3765 %%handle-system-error.
3766 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3767 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3768 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3769 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3771 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3773 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3774 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3775 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3776 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3778 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3780 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3781 the empty list if they are #f.

3793 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3795 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3797 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3798 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3799 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3800 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3801 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3803 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3805 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown

3813 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3814 initialize %load-path.
3816 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3817 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3819 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3821 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3822 Add the directory named after the version number.
3823 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3824 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.

3826 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3827 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.

3836 in the Makefile directly.
3837 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3839 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and

3851 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3853 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3854 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3856 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3858 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):

3876 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3877 (manifest): Deleted.
3878 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a

3881 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3883 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
