13 * safe-r5rs.scm (re-export): Uncomment numerator, denominator,
14 rationalize, since they now exist.
16 2004-07-05 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
18 * slib.scm (system): Correction to redefinition, now guile is stricter
19 about when a define binding comes into existance.
21 2004-05-29 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
23 * boot-9.scm: Reordered definitions such that macro definitions
24 preceed their first usage. Include and define deprecated stuff
25 late in the file to have a better change of detecting accidental
26 uses of deprecated definitions. Further, unified the layout a
27 little and grouped definitions more cleanly into topics.
29 2004-05-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
31 * history.scm (use-value-history): Use resolve-interface instead
32 of resolve-module so that only the exported bindings are searched.

34 by Wolfgang Jaehrling.
36 2004-05-04 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
38 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): Always start searching from the

44 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Make the (guile-user) module use the

49 * boot-9.scm (module-map): Renamed hash-map -> hash-map->list.
51 2004-02-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
53 * debugger/trap-hooks.scm (debug-hook-membership): New, exported.
55 * debugger/commands.scm (debug-trap-hooks): New, exported.
57 2004-02-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
59 * debugger/breakpoints/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES),
60 debugger/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES), Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES): Use
61 this variable instead of ETAGS_ARGS so that TAGS can be built
62 using separate build directory.
64 2004-01-20 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
66 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Back out 2003-11-19 change to
67 lazy-handler-dispatch lookup.
69 2004-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>

72 Thanks to Richard Todd!
74 2004-01-11 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
76 * slib.scm (system): New function, giving an exit code return in
77 accordance with slib spec.
79 Revert this, it breaks test-suite/tests/r5rs_pitfalls.test where
80 false-if-exception is used within syntax-rules. (Suspect syntax-rules
81 ought to support this sort of thing, but it doesn't right now.)
82 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
83 to depend on expansion environment.
85 2004-01-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
87 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): Use with-fluid* when only one fluid is
90 2004-01-07 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>

93 Reported by Richard Todd.
95 2004-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
97 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
98 to depend on expansion environment.
100 * slib.scm (-1+, <?, <=?, =?, >?, >=?): Define as aliases for 1-, <,
101 <=, =, >, >= respectively, required by slib 'rev2-procedures but no
102 longer in the guile core.
104 2003-11-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
106 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Defer lookup of
107 lazy-handler-dispatch.

113 2003-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
115 * boot-9.scm: Started comment about module system workings.

119 * debugger.scm: Change ui-* calls to gds-*.
120 (debug-on-error): Debug if throw key is in specified syms, not if
121 it isn't! Also throw 'abort after debugging, so as to skip the
124 * debugger/behaviour.scm (*trap*): New variable, stores trap type.

126 before-exit-frame-hook): Set here.

151 2003-10-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
153 * poe.scm (funcq-assoc): Rewrite, don't assume '() is false, and
154 actually traverse the given alist.
156 2003-10-06 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
158 * debugger/ui-client.scm (handle-instruction): Add evaluation
162 2003-10-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
164 * debugger/ui-client.scm (ui-disable-async-thread,
165 ui-continue-async-thread, start-async-ui-thread): New.
166 (ui-command-loop): Call ui-disable-async-thread and
167 ui-continue-async-thread.
168 (handle-instruction): Read terminating newline char so it doesn't
169 cause following select to pop immediately.

173 * debugger/ui-client.scm, debugger/ui-server.scm: New (work in
174 progress on new debugging front end).
176 2003-09-24 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
178 * debugger.scm (default-default-lazy-handler, debug-on-error):

200 2003-09-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
202 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
203 follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
204 normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
205 it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
206 uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
208 2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
210 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
211 the obarray, not an empty vector.
212 (make-module): Always construct a hashtable for the obarray, even
215 * format.scm (format:error): Use 'format:format' instead of
216 'format' since the latter will lock the mutex again that we have
218 (format:format-work): Flag multiple '#' as an error.
220 2003-08-17 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
222 * boot-9.scm (while): Use a new key dynamically for each loop, so
223 break and continue associate to their loop even when recursing.
225 2003-08-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
227 * boot-9.scm (while): Rewrite, continue as proper escape, break
228 without return value, break and continue new for each while form,
229 don't depend on bindings in expansion environment.
231 * popen.scm (open-process): Close input-fdes, output-fdes and
232 error-fdes after duping them to 0, 1 and 2.
234 2003-06-19 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
236 * threads.scm (parallel): For no forms, use `(values)' not `(begin)'.

255 instead of substring-move-left! or substring-move-right!. Thanks
258 * deprecated.scm (substring-move-left!, substring-move-right!):
261 * boot-9.scm (display-usage-report): Use keyword->symbol instead
262 of keyword-symbol, which doesn't exist. Thanks to Kevin Ryde.
264 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-get-handle): Pass only the expected four
265 arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
267 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second
268 argument to string-ref. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
270 2003-04-25 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kvast.blakulla.net>
272 * serialize.scm: New file.
274 2003-04-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
276 * threads.scm (n-for-each-par-map): New procedure.

298 2003-03-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
300 * format.scm (format:out-substr): Update the column counter
301 correctly. This fixes the behavior of ~T (tabbing) after ~F, for
302 instance. Thanks to Matthias Koeppe!
304 2003-03-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
306 * session.scm (apropos): Don't look in duplicates interface.

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

416 expression before trying to treat it as a Guile macro call.
417 (Thanks to Kevin Ryde.)

444 in output. (We normally *would* like also these expressions to be

525 removing it in my patch from 2002-11-16.
527 2002-11-24 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
529 Thanks to Mikael Djurfeldt for a bugreport which led to the
532 * slib.scm (%system-define): Removed.
534 (define): Changed to use define-private instead of

542 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Locally define `read-and-eval!', as it

594 value will be returned by join-thread.

637 should be unnecessary now.
639 2002-10-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>

747 Thanks to Christopher Cramer.
749 2002-02-24 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
751 * syncase.scm (gensym): redefine locally so we can control it's
752 properties. This is in preparation for changing the future public
753 gensym to produce unreadable symbols.

757 2002-02-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@giblet.glug.org>

767 2002-01-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
769 * psyntax.ss (datum->syntax-object): Removed assertion in
770 datum->syntax-object that checked if the first argument, a
771 syntax-object, is an identifier. This was a unconvenient and
772 unnecessary restriction. Thanks to Dorai Sitaram!
774 2002-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
776 More options for pretty-print. Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
778 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): New per-line-prefix argument.
779 (pretty-print): Check whether the new keyword argument style is
780 used and dispatch to pretty-print-with-keys accordingly.
782 2001-11-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
784 * format.scm (string-index, list-head): Removed, we already have

795 2001-10-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
797 * slib.scm (array-indexes): New procedure.
798 (*features*): Extend. (Probably some of these options should be

802 channel.scm, common-list.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm,

806 safe.scm, session.scm, slib.scm, streams.scm, string-fun.scm,
807 syncase.scm, threads.scm: Move module the system directives
808 `export', `export-syntax', `re-export' and `re-export-syntax'
809 into the `define-module' form. This is the recommended way of
812 2001-10-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
814 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): New options: :export-syntax,
817 2001-10-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
819 * arrays.scm (read:uniform-vector): Return *unspecified* instead
820 of raising an exception if hash extend character isn't followed by
821 the array list. (This prevents parsing of uniform vectors from
822 interfering with parsing of numbers.)
824 2001-10-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
826 * emacs.scm (%%load-port, %%emacs-load, %%emacs-eval-request,
827 %%emacs-select-frame, %%emacs-frame-eval, %%emacs-symdoc,
828 %%apropos-internal): Use module-define! instead of
831 2001-09-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus>
833 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added :re-export.
835 2001-09-19 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@glug.org>

846 2001-09-08 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
848 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Record the broken-down argument list in
849 the `arglist' procedure property.
850 * session.scm (arity): Use new `arglist' procedure property to
851 present a more detailed argument list.
853 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
855 2001-09-07 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
857 * getopt-long.scm (process-options, getopt-long): Fix omission
858 bug: Handle multiple occurrances of an option. Thanks to Daniel
861 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
863 * boot-9.scm: Don't load module (ice-9 rdelim).
865 (feature?): Deprecated.
867 (id, -1+, return-it, string-character-length, flags,
868 eval-in-module, split-c-module-name,
869 (convert-c-registered-modules, registered-modules,
870 register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation, init-dynamic-module,
871 dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
872 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
873 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
874 try-module-dynamic-link): Removed.
876 (module-make-local-var!, module-ensure-local-variable!,
877 module-define!): Eliminate call to `variable-set-name-hint!´.
879 (try-load-module, use-syntax, module-export!): Remove deprecated

883 needed to trick export.
885 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
887 * optargs.scm: Remove #& reader extension.
889 2001-08-31 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
891 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Deleted.
893 * Makefile.am: Remove references to and-let-star-compat.scm.
895 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
897 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
898 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
899 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
901 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
903 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
904 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
906 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
908 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
910 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
912 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
916 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
918 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
919 last-command fluid is not yet set.
921 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
923 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
925 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
926 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
927 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
929 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
931 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
932 handle :use-syntax correctly.
934 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
936 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
939 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
941 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
942 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
943 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
944 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
945 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
947 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
949 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
950 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
951 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
953 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
955 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
956 primitives. Thanks Neil!
958 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
960 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
961 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
962 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
963 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
965 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
966 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
967 since there aren't definitions for them.
969 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
970 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
972 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
974 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
975 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
977 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
979 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
980 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
982 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
984 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
985 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
986 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
988 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
990 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
992 * tags.scm: Removed file.
994 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
996 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
997 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
999 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
1000 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
1001 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
1004 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1006 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
1007 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
1009 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1011 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
1012 Don't reset trace-level to 0.
1014 * boot-9.scm (lazy-handler-dispatch): Remove enter-frame-handler,
1015 apply-frame-handler and exit-frame-handler. (They're replaced by
1016 evaluator trap options.)

1020 * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): typo fix.
1022 2001-06-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1024 * boot-9.scm (re-export-syntax): New.
1026 2001-06-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1028 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
1030 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1032 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
1033 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
1035 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
1038 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
1039 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
1040 No longer require `pretty-print'.
1042 (slib:error): Delete.
1043 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
1045 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1050 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
1054 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1056 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
1057 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
1058 rdelim) module. See below.
1060 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1062 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
1063 include-deprecated-features is true.
1065 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1067 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
1070 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
1071 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
1072 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
1074 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
1075 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
1076 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
1079 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1081 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
1082 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
1083 variable, not just a visible one.
1084 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
1085 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
1086 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
1087 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
1088 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
1089 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
1091 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
1093 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
1094 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
1096 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1098 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
1099 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
1101 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1103 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
1105 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1107 Added exception notice to all files.
1109 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
1110 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
1111 importing bindings once in a while.
1113 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1115 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
1116 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
1117 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
1118 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
1119 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
1120 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
1121 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
1122 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
1124 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
1125 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
1127 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1129 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
1130 fix command so that it works.
1132 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
1133 to access unbound variables.
1135 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
1136 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
1137 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
1138 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
1139 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
1141 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1143 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
1144 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
1145 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
1146 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
1147 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
1148 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
1149 argument for process-define-module.
1150 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
1151 arguments for process-use-modules.
1152 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
1154 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1156 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
1157 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
1158 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
1161 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
1162 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
1163 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
1165 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.
1167 2001-05-23 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1169 * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-table): New hash table mapping modules
1171 (cond-expand): Use feature information associated with modules.
1173 2001-05-21 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
1175 * boot-9.scm (use-srfis): Do not extend the srfi-0 feature list.
1176 (cond-expand-provide): New procedure.

1206 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
1207 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
1208 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
1209 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
1210 element list when adding "." to it.

1276 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
1277 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
1278 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
1279 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
1280 `set-current-module' call.
1281 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
1282 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

1513 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
1515 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
1516 make-buffered-input-port.
1518 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

1578 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1580 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
1581 `interaction-evironment'.
1582 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
1584 (eval-when): New macro.
1585 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to

1587 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
1589 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the

1608 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1610 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
1613 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to

1651 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1653 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
1654 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
1655 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
1656 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
1657 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
1658 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
1659 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
1661 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1663 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
1664 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
1666 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1668 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
1671 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1673 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
1676 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
1678 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
1680 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1682 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
1683 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
1684 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
1685 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
1686 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,
1687 split-before-char-last, split-discarding-char-last,
1688 split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1689 split-discarding-predicate, separate-fields-discarding-char,

1691 string-prefix-predicate, sans-surrounding-whitespace,
1692 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
1693 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
1694 make-shared-substring.
1696 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1698 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
1699 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
1700 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
1701 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
1704 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1706 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
1707 and open-output-pipe.
1709 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1711 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
1712 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
1713 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
1714 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
1715 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
1716 Pirotte for the bug report).
1717 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
1718 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
1720 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1722 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

1743 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
1744 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
1746 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
1747 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
1748 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
1749 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
1750 actual documentation entries themselves.
1752 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1754 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
1756 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1758 * syncase.scm (putprop): Use the high-level property interface.
1760 2000-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

1774 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1776 * boot-9.scm (make-object-property): New function.
1778 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1780 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `string-append' instead of
1782 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
1784 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
1785 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
1786 even worked... /mdj.
1787 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
1789 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
1792 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

1815 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1817 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
1818 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
1819 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
1820 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
1821 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
1823 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
1825 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1827 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
1828 provided by libguile/modules.c.)
1830 * safe-r5rs.scm (null-environment): Bugfix: Should include
1833 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
1834 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.
1835 (read-hash-extend #\.): Ditto. (This is actually a bugfix!)
1836 (eval-in-module): Redefined to be eval and deprecated.
1838 * syncase.scm (eval): Add second arg both in definition and use.
1840 * slib.scm (slib:eval): Use eval instead of eval-in-module.

1845 * emacs.scm (emacs-eval-request):
1846 (emacs-symdoc): (This procedure needs updating!)
1848 2000-08-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1850 * boot-9.scm: Added note about dependency in modules.h to
1851 definition of module-type.
1853 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added receive.scm, srfi-8.scm.
1855 * receive.scm, srfi-8.scm: New files.
1857 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Print multiple values on successive
1859 (process-define-module): Bugfix: Make sure that exports are done

1862 2000-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1864 * common-list.scm (uniq): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to thi!
1866 2000-07-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1868 * boot-9.scm (expt): In case of negative integer exponents return
1869 an exact result if the input paramters were exact. Thanks to
1870 Mikael for the suggestion.
1872 2000-07-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1874 * boot-9.scm (expt): Make sure that integer-expt is only called
1875 if the exponent is a non-negative integer.
1877 2000-07-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1879 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Bugfix: Only check the CDR
1882 2000-06-27 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1884 * popen.scm: gc-thunk is deprecated. Use after-gc-hook instead.
1886 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1888 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1889 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber
1892 (delete-if!, delete-if-not!): Renamed parameter from `list' to
1893 `l' in order to avoid confusion. Note: These functions are not
1896 2000-06-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1898 * boot-9.scm: Turned `the-module', `*top-level-lookup-closure*',
1899 and `scm:eval-transformer' into fluids.
1901 * boot-9.scm (purify-module!, module-export!): New procedures.
1902 (export): Rewritten using `module-export!'.
1903 (process-define-module): New define-module options: pure, export.
1905 (scm-style-repl): Added optional module argument.
1907 * null.scm, r5rs.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, safe.scm: New modules.
1909 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1911 * session.scm (make-fold-modules): Detect circular references in
1912 module graph. (Thanks to Matthias Köppe.)
1914 2000-06-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1916 * session.scm: Use module (ice-9 regex).
1917 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1919 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1921 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1922 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1924 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1926 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1928 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1930 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1932 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1939 (the-scm-module): Set kind to 'interface.
1941 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Replaced doc.scm with
1944 * session.scm (ice-9): Use module (ice-9 documentation).
1945 (name): Use the name property if everything else fails.
1946 (apropos-fold): New procedure.
1947 (apropos-internal): Re-implement in terms of `apropos-fold'.
1950 * doc.scm: Removed module (ice-9 doc).
1952 * documentation.scm: New module (ice-9 documentation).
1954 2000-06-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1956 * doc.scm (documentation-files): Renamed from `doc-files'.
1957 (write-all): Removed.
1958 (find-documentation): Renamed from `documentation'. Return
1959 documentation string instead of printing it. Not exported.
1961 Tue Jun 6 09:21:28 2000 Greg J. Badros <gregb@go2net.com>
1963 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1964 `proc-documentation'
1966 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1967 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1968 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1969 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1970 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1971 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1972 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive
1975 2000-06-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1977 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Inform about debugger on error.
1979 2000-06-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1981 * boot-9.scm (scm-module-closure): New procedure: Was previously
1982 anonymous. Now needed in modules.c.
1983 (make-module): Use `standard-eval-closure' to create the eval
1986 2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1988 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1989 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1990 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1991 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1992 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1993 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1994 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1996 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1998 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1999 accept complex numbers as parameter.
2001 2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2003 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
2004 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
2006 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2008 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
2009 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
2010 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
2011 instead of remove-if when iterating.
2012 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
2013 delete-if! when iterating.
2015 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2017 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
2019 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2021 * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
2023 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2025 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
2026 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
2027 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
2028 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
2030 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2032 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
2033 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
2035 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2037 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
2038 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
2039 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
2040 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
2042 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
2044 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
2045 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
2047 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2049 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
2050 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
2052 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2054 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
2057 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2059 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
2060 source of the numerous very short changes.
2062 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2064 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
2067 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
2070 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2072 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
2075 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2077 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
2078 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
2080 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2082 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
2085 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
2087 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
2088 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
2089 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
2091 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2093 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
2094 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
2095 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
2096 Narazaki for this change.
2098 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2100 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
2101 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
2104 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
2105 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
2107 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2109 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
2110 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
2112 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2114 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
2115 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
2116 use define-public to export from the module.
2118 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2120 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
2121 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
2122 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
2124 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2126 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
2128 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
2130 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
2131 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
2133 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2135 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
2137 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.

2141 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2143 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
2144 long_long uniform vectors.
2146 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2148 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
2149 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
2151 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2153 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
2154 script to create generated files like this one.
2156 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
2158 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
2159 available before using getpw and getuid.
2160 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
2161 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
2163 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
2164 check for .guile, instead of stat.
2165 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
2167 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
2168 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
2169 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
2171 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
2172 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
2174 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
2176 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2178 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
2179 than 'exit-debugger.

2205 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
2206 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
2208 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2210 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
2212 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
2214 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
2215 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
2217 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
2218 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.

2224 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2226 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
2227 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
2229 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
2231 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2233 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
2234 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
2235 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
2236 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
2238 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
2241 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
2242 both forward and backward views of the stack
2243 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
2244 Use selector `frame-number';
2245 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
2246 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
2248 Use readline conditionally.
2250 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2252 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
2253 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
2254 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
2256 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
2257 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
2260 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

2272 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
2273 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
2274 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
2275 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
2276 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
2277 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
2278 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
2279 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
2280 libguile-config-stamp.
2281 * version.scm.in: Delete.
2282 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
2283 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
2284 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
2285 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
2287 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2289 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
2290 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
2291 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
2293 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
2294 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
2295 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
2296 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
2299 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
2301 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
2303 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
2305 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2307 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
2308 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
2310 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
2312 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
2313 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
2314 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
2315 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
2316 objects starting with '#/'.
2318 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
2320 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
2321 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
2322 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
2323 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
2324 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
2325 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
2327 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
2328 module-modified): New procedures.
2329 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
2330 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
2332 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2334 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
2337 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2339 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
2340 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
2341 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2343 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
2346 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2348 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
2349 at multiple calls to read.
2350 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
2351 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
2352 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
2353 continued-lines prompt.
2355 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
2356 reading expressions.
2358 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2360 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
2361 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2363 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2365 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
2366 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
2369 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2371 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
2372 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
2374 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
2375 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
2376 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
2377 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
2378 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
2381 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2383 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
2384 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2386 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
2388 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
2389 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
2390 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
2391 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
2393 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
2395 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2397 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
2398 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
2399 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
2402 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2404 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
2405 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
2406 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
2407 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
2408 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
2409 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2410 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
2411 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
2412 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
2413 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
2414 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
2416 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2418 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
2419 peeked from the stream.
2420 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
2421 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
2422 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
2424 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2426 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
2427 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
2429 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2431 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
2432 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
2433 exiting repl with single control-D.
2435 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
2437 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
2438 error catching loop after quit received.
2439 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
2441 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
2442 primitive exit if non-interactive.
2443 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
2445 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
2446 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
2448 * popen.scm: new file.
2450 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
2452 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
2453 (reverse-iota): removed.
2455 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
2457 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
2458 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
2460 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2462 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
2463 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
2464 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
2465 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2466 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
2468 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2470 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
2472 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
2473 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2475 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
2476 Guile's module system.
2478 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
2480 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
2481 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
2482 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
2483 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
2484 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
2485 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
2487 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
2488 '() when the condition is false.
2490 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2492 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2494 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2496 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
2498 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2500 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
2501 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
2502 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
2504 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2506 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
2507 argument order for hash-fold.
2509 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2511 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
2513 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
2514 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
2516 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
2517 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
2518 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
2519 has been added to the load path).
2521 Use try-load-module.
2523 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2525 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
2526 module between system and user state.
2528 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2530 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
2532 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
2535 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2537 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
2538 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
2539 system can create a wrapper class for it.
2541 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2543 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
2544 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
2545 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
2546 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
2547 stack frame encountered.
2549 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
2550 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
2551 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
2552 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
2555 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
2556 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
2557 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
2558 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
2561 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
2562 define-module switches:
2564 (define-module (foo)
2567 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
2570 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
2571 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
2572 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
2573 module it is a system frame.
2575 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
2576 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
2577 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
2578 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
2579 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
2581 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
2582 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
2583 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
2584 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
2585 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
2586 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
2588 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
2589 status of a module.;
2590 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
2591 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
2593 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
2594 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
2595 closure to the module.
2597 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
2599 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2601 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
2603 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2605 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
2607 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2609 Fix from Russ McManus:
2610 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
2611 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
2612 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
2613 either an optional or required value.
2615 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
2617 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
2619 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
2620 of the '() key, not `rest'.
2622 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
2623 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
2624 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
2625 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2627 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
2629 * optargs.scm: New file.
2630 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
2631 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
2633 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2635 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
2636 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
2637 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2639 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2641 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
2642 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
2645 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2647 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2649 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2651 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
2652 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
2653 applied to the module itself.
2655 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2657 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
2659 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
2660 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
2662 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2664 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
2666 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2668 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
2670 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2672 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
2673 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
2675 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2677 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
2678 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
2679 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
2680 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
2681 among BINDINGS is referenced.
2682 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
2683 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
2685 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2687 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
2688 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
2690 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
2692 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
2693 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
2696 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2698 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
2700 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2702 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
2704 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2706 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
2707 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
2708 adapt to the new hooks.
2710 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2712 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
2713 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
2714 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
2716 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
2717 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
2719 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
2720 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
2721 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
2722 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
2723 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
2724 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
2725 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
2726 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
2727 first to register linked modules.
2729 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
2730 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
2731 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
2733 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
2734 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
2735 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
2736 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
2738 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
2740 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
2743 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
2744 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
2745 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
2747 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2749 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
2750 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
2751 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
2753 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2755 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
2756 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
2757 result of the last form.
2759 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2761 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
2764 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
2766 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
2767 readline-set!: New options interface.
2769 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
2771 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2773 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
2774 at the end of boot-9.scm.
2776 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2778 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
2779 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2781 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2783 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
2784 interactive session.
2785 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
2787 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
2788 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
2790 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2792 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
2794 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2796 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
2797 read line was empty.
2799 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2801 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
2802 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
2804 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
2806 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
2808 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
2809 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
2810 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
2812 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
2813 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
2815 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
2816 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
2817 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
2819 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
2820 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
2821 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
2822 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
2823 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
2824 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
2826 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2828 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
2829 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2831 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2833 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
2834 and short vectors #h(...).
2836 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2838 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
2839 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
2840 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
2842 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2844 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
2845 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
2846 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
2848 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2850 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
2851 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
2853 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
2854 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
2855 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
2856 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
2858 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2860 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
2863 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
2864 order to allow the empty list as arg.
2865 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
2866 context with traps enabled.
2868 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2870 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
2872 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
2874 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2876 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
2877 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
2878 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
2879 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
2880 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
2882 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2884 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
2885 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
2887 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2889 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2891 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2893 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2895 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2897 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2899 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2901 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2902 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2904 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2906 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2907 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2908 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2909 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2912 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2913 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2914 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2916 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2918 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2919 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2920 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2921 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2922 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2923 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2924 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2926 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2928 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2930 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2932 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2933 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2934 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2935 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2936 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2937 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2939 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2941 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2942 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2943 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2946 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2948 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2950 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2952 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2954 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2956 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2959 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2961 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2963 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2965 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2966 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2968 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2970 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2971 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2972 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2973 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2975 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2976 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2978 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2980 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2982 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2984 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2985 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2988 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2989 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2991 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2992 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2993 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2995 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2997 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2999 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
3001 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
3002 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
3004 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3006 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
3008 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3010 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
3011 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
3013 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
3015 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
3018 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3020 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
3021 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
3023 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3025 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
3027 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3029 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
3032 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3034 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
3035 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
3036 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
3037 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
3038 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
3041 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3043 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
3044 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
3045 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
3047 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3049 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
3051 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
3052 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
3054 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3056 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
3057 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
3058 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
3059 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
3060 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
3061 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
3062 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
3065 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3067 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
3070 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
3072 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
3073 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
3074 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
3075 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
3076 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
3077 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
3079 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3081 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
3082 usefully so they will work from a script.
3084 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3086 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
3087 neighborhood of the record code.
3089 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3091 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
3092 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
3093 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
3094 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
3096 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3098 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
3099 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
3100 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3102 Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3104 Add support for readline function.
3105 * readline.scm: New module.
3106 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
3107 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
3108 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
3110 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
3111 repl-reader to use them.
3112 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
3114 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
3116 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3118 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3119 string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
3121 Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3123 * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
3124 expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
3125 (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
3127 Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3129 * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
3130 #f, abort terminates the process.
3131 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
3132 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
3134 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3136 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
3137 print-state, throw it away.
3139 Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3141 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
3144 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
3146 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
3147 set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
3148 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
3149 (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
3151 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
3152 one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
3154 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3156 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
3158 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3160 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
3161 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
3162 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
3163 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
3164 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
3166 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for
3167 distribution and installation.
3168 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3170 Mon Sep 29 23:53:55 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3172 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2c.
3174 Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3176 * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
3177 named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
3178 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
3180 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
3181 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
3184 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3186 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
3188 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
3190 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3192 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
3193 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
3194 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
3195 field a separate argument.
3197 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
3199 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3201 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
3203 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty
3207 Thu Sep 18 01:24:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3209 * r4rs.scm (apply): Set name property to 'apply.
3211 Tue Sep 16 22:09:50 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3213 * boot-9.scm (keyword->symbol, display-usage-report): Changed
3214 length --> string-length. (Thanks to Aleksandar Bakic.)
3215 (separate-fields-discarding-char, separate-fields-after-char,
3216 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
3217 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
3218 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
3220 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
3221 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
3222 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
3223 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
3224 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
3227 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3229 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!
3231 Thu Sep 11 02:31:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3233 * session.scm (name): New procedure: Gives name of object.
3234 (source): New procedure: Gives source of object.
3236 Wed Sep 10 20:12:45 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3238 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
3240 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
3241 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
3242 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
3243 expansion inside the slib module.
3245 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
3247 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.
3248 (self-evaluating?): Add keywords among self-evaluating types.
3249 (let): New core form.
3250 (if): Removed from core language.
3251 (or, and, let, cond): Removed syntactic definitions.
3252 (sc-expand3): New procedure: Expander which takes optional mode
3253 and eval-syntactic-expanders-when arguments.
3255 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): New procedure: Recompiles psyntax.pp.
3256 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
3257 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
3259 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
3260 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
3263 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
3265 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
3266 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
3268 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
3270 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
3271 (make-module): Modified initialization.
3272 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
3273 mutator for module-associated transformer.
3274 (set-current-module): Use module-transformer to set
3275 `scm:eval-transformer'.
3276 (module-use!): Previous change reverted.
3277 (use-syntax): New function: Install a transformer in current
3279 (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed! :)
3281 Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3283 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
3285 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
3286 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
3287 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
3288 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
3289 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
3291 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
3292 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
3293 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
3295 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
3296 the syncase interface.
3298 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3300 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
3301 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
3302 workings of the current module system).
3304 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3306 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
3307 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
3310 Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3312 * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
3313 (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3314 (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
3316 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3318 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
3319 according to the following priorities:
3320 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
3321 2. bindings from the-scm-module
3323 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
3324 disabling the scheme interpreter.
3325 (new-interpreter): New function.
3327 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
3328 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
3329 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
3331 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3333 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3335 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
3337 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
3339 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3341 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New
3343 (emacs-frame-eval): Reworked.
3345 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3347 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
3348 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
3351 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3353 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
3354 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
3355 (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
3356 symbols matching regexp.
3358 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
3359 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
3362 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
3363 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
3364 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
3365 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
3366 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
3368 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
3369 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
3371 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3373 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
3374 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
3376 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
3377 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
3379 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
3381 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3383 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
3384 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
3385 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.
3387 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss (quasiquote): Changed fx= --> =.
3389 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
3390 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
3391 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
3393 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3395 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
3396 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.
3398 Sat Aug 16 18:44:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3400 * boot-9.scm: define tms accessors: clock, utime, stime, cutime,
3403 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3405 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
3406 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
3407 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
3409 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
3410 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
3413 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
3414 order to narrow it correctly.
3415 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.
3417 Tue Jul 29 01:18:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3419 * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.
3420 (dup->fdes): deleted, now done in C.
3422 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3424 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
3426 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3428 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
3429 builtin `with-fluids*'.
3431 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3433 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
3434 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
3435 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
3437 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3439 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
3442 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3444 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,
3445 dup, fdes->inport, fdes->outport, port->fdes): new procedures.
3446 (duplicate-port): was a C primitive, now it's here.
3447 (move->fdes): allow the first argument to be a file descriptor.
3448 Return the modified port or file descriptor (was unspecified.)
3450 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3452 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:
3453 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): If HOME is unset, provide
3456 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Changed to accomodate Hobbit.
3458 Tue Jun 24 00:31:47 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3460 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,
3461 poe.scm, slib.scm, tags.scm, threads.scm: Use normal list
3462 notation, instead of #/ notation.
3464 * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to
3467 Mon Jun 23 16:13:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3469 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
3470 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
3471 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
3472 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
3473 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
3474 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
3476 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
3477 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
3478 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
3479 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
3481 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3483 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
3484 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
3485 sending in bug reports.
3486 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
3487 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
3488 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
3489 display a warning if the two are different.
3490 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
3491 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
3492 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3494 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3496 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
3498 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3500 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
3501 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
3503 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
3504 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
3505 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
3506 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
3507 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
3508 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
3511 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
3512 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
3515 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
3516 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
3518 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
3521 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
3524 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
3526 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
3529 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3531 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
3532 vtable and not the one of the struct.
3534 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3536 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
3537 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
3538 to support printing of structures.
3539 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
3540 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
3541 commented out printing code.
3542 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
3543 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".
3545 Tue Jun 3 17:04:18 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3547 * slib.scm (identity): New function, used by SLIB.
3549 Sat May 31 18:57:12 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3551 * boot-9.scm: signal-handler, alarm-thunk: removed.
3552 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
3553 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
3554 during call to scm-style-repl.
3556 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3558 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
3559 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
3560 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
3561 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
3562 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
3564 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3566 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
3567 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
3570 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
3572 * regex.scm: New file.
3573 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
3574 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3576 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3578 * COPYING, boot-9.scm, debug.scm, emacs.scm, expect.scm, gtcl.scm,
3579 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
3580 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
3581 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
3583 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3585 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
3588 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3590 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
3591 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
3592 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
3594 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3596 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
3597 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
3600 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3602 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3604 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3606 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
3608 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3610 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
3611 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
3614 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3616 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
3617 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
3618 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
3620 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3622 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
3623 the Scheme code like code yet.
3624 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
3626 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3628 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
3629 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
3630 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
3632 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3634 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
3636 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
3639 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3641 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
3643 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3645 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
3647 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
3648 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
3649 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
3651 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3653 Get 'make dist' to work again.
3654 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
3655 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
3657 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
3659 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
3660 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
3662 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3664 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
3667 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3669 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
3671 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3673 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
3674 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
3676 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3678 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
3679 instead of in libguile.
3680 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
3681 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
3683 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3685 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
3687 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
3688 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
3690 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3692 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
3693 sockaddr:port): new functions.
3695 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3697 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
3698 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
3699 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
3700 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
3702 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3704 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
3705 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
3707 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3709 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
3711 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3713 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
3714 keywords and symbols.
3716 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3718 * slib.scm: update read usage.
3720 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
3721 Don't define read-sharp.
3723 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
3724 (read-sharp): removed.
3725 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
3726 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
3728 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3730 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
3732 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
3733 primitive procedure.)
3735 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
3736 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
3738 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3740 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
3742 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3744 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
3746 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3748 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
3750 * (exit): alias for quit.
3752 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3754 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
3755 return the quit args.
3756 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
3757 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
3758 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
3760 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
3762 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3764 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
3766 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
3767 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
3769 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
3770 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
3772 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
3773 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
3776 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3778 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
3780 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
3781 (add-hooks!): New macro.
3782 Change hooks to use these functions.
3784 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
3785 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
3786 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
3788 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
3789 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
3790 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
3791 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
3792 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
3793 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
3794 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
3797 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
3798 and exit-frame exceptions.
3800 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
3801 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
3802 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
3803 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
3804 result; otherwise display "> ".
3805 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
3807 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
3808 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
3809 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
3810 repository version runnable.
3812 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3814 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
3815 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
3816 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
3817 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
3818 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
3819 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
3821 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3823 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
3824 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
3826 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
3828 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
3829 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
3831 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3833 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
3835 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3837 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
3840 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3842 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
3843 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
3845 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3847 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
3850 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3852 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
3853 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
3855 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3857 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
3859 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
3860 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
3861 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
3862 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
3863 dynamic linking of modules.
3864 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
3865 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
3867 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3869 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
3871 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3873 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
3876 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
3877 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
3880 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3882 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
3883 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
3884 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
3886 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3888 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3889 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3892 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3894 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3895 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3896 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3898 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3900 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3901 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3902 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3903 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3905 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3906 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3907 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3908 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3909 (such as the-scm-module).
3911 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3913 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3916 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3918 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3919 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3920 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3922 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3924 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3925 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3926 function, use it accordingly.
3928 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3930 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3931 function of no arguments.
3932 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3933 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3934 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3935 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3936 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3937 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3938 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3939 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3941 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3943 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3944 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3946 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3948 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3949 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3950 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3951 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3952 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3954 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3957 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3958 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3959 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3960 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3962 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3964 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3966 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3967 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3968 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3970 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3973 Added `before-read-hook'.
3975 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3977 (provide): New function.
3979 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3982 (backtrace): New function.
3984 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3985 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3986 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3987 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3988 is found in operator position in a frame.
3990 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3993 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3994 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3995 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3997 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3999 (library-vicinity): Updated.
4001 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
4003 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
4005 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4007 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
4009 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
4010 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
4012 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
4013 so they'll get distributed.
4015 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
4016 should see as little clutter as possible.
4017 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
4018 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
4019 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
4021 * r4rs.scm: New file.
4022 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
4023 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
4024 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
4025 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
4026 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
4027 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
4028 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
4029 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
4030 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
4032 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
4033 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
4035 * test.scm: New file.
4037 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
4038 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
4039 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
4041 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
4042 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
4044 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
4046 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
4047 call %load-announce.
4049 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4051 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
4052 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
4053 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
4055 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
4057 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4059 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
4060 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
4061 SCSH (which this isn't).
4063 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4065 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4067 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
4069 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
4070 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
4071 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
4073 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
4074 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
4075 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
4076 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
4079 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4081 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
4083 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
4085 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
4086 error-catching-loop.
4087 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
4088 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
4089 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
4091 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
4092 error-catching-loop.
4094 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4096 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
4097 (make-module): Rework for readability.
4098 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
4099 should be '(), not #f.
4101 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
4102 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
4104 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4106 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
4107 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
4110 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4112 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
4113 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
4114 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
4115 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
4117 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4119 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
4121 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4123 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
4125 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
4126 throw-handler-default.
4127 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
4129 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
4131 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
4132 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
4134 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4136 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
4137 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
4138 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
4139 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
4141 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4143 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
4144 Append "." to the default %load-path.
4145 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
4146 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
4148 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
4149 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
4150 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
4151 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
4154 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4156 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
4158 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
4161 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
4164 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
4166 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4168 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
4169 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
4171 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4173 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
4175 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
4177 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4179 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
4180 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
4181 Don't set up 'error as a key.
4182 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
4183 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
4185 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
4186 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
4187 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
4188 they seem redundant.
4189 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
4190 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
4191 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
4192 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
4193 directly files starting with "/").
4194 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
4195 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
4197 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
4199 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4201 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
4202 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
4203 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
4204 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
4205 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
4206 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
4207 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
4208 robust to just do it in the C code.
4210 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4212 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
4213 %try-load itself was the primitive.
4214 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
4215 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
4216 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
4218 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
4220 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
4221 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
4222 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
4224 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4226 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
4227 system-error, not every kind of error.
4228 (scm-error): new procedure.
4230 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
4232 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
4234 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4236 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
4237 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
4238 of args are supplied.
4239 (%%system-errors): removed.
4240 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
4241 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
4242 %%handle-system-error.
4243 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
4244 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
4245 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
4246 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
4248 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4250 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
4251 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
4252 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
4253 %S (embed an argument using "write").
4255 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4257 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
4258 the empty list if they are #f.
4259 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
4261 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4263 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
4265 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
4266 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
4267 aborting, just the key and subr.
4268 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
4269 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
4270 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
4272 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
4274 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
4275 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
4276 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
4277 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
4278 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
4280 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
4282 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
4283 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
4284 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
4285 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
4287 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4289 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
4290 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
4291 initialize %load-path.
4293 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
4294 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
4296 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
4298 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
4299 Add the directory named after the version number.
4300 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
4301 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
4302 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
4303 sitedatadir): New definitions.
4304 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
4305 (install): Create the above directories.
4306 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
4307 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
4309 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
4311 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
4312 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
4313 in the Makefile directly.
4314 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
4316 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
4318 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
4319 here, where people expect to find them.
