7 2001-08-30 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
9 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): When returning a custom
10 interface, also consult source module's entire binding set,
11 not just its exported bindings, before throwing error.
13 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
15 * boot-9.scm (resolve-interface): Get variables from the public
16 interface of a module instead of from the module itselfs.
18 2001-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
20 * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Change "foreign" to "gnu".
22 2001-08-12 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
24 * getopt-long.scm: Rewrite.
28 2001-08-02 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
30 * debugger.scm (run-last-command): Return current state if
31 last-command fluid is not yet set.
33 2001-08-02 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
35 * getopt-long.scm: Refill to fit in 80 columns.
37 (process-long-option): Fix bug: Keep track of `optional'
38 value-required info and use this to determine whether or not the
39 next element is to be taken as the option arg.
41 2001-07-31 Keisuke Nishida <knishida@nurs.or.jp>
43 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Fixed a bug that did not
44 handle :use-syntax correctly.
46 2001-07-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
48 * syncase.scm (psyncomp): Removed, it is now in
51 2001-07-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
53 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Enable rule for psyntax.pp only in
54 maintainer mode. Use compile-psyntax.scm for actual compilation.
55 Make sure the uninstalled guile is used.
56 (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute compile-psyntax.scm
57 * compile-psyntax.scm: New file.
59 2001-07-18 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
61 * and-let-star.scm, debug.scm, debugger.scm, history.scm,
62 lineio.scm, null.scm, optargs.scm, r4rs.scm, r5rs.scm,
63 receive.scm, safe-r5rs.scm, streams.scm: Updated copyright notice.
65 2001-07-17 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
67 * r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
68 primitives. Thanks Neil!
70 2001-07-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
72 * safe-r5rs.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for
73 re-exported core bindings. Do not re-export `numerator',
74 `denominator' and `rationalize' since Guile does not have them.
75 Continue to use `export' for `null-environment'.
77 * null.scm: Use `re-export' instead of `export' for re-exported
78 core bindings. Do not export `unquote' and `unquote-splicing'
79 since there aren't definitions for them.
81 * boot-9.scm (compile-interface-spec): Bug fix: the keyword
82 argument is "renamer" not "rename".
84 2001-07-09 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
86 * boot-9.scm: Fixed the sense of the error message when read-eval?
87 is #f. Thanks to Matthias for catching this.
89 2001-07-06 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
91 * boot-9.scm: added fix suggested by Matthias for #. read
92 extension -- now only works if read-eval? is not #f.
94 2001-06-30 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
96 * arrays.scm: Don't install a read-hash-extension for 'b': #b
97 is already defined by R5RS. Further, there is already a working
98 read syntax for bitvectors, starting with #*.
100 2001-06-30 Martin Grabmueller <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
102 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed tags.scm.
104 * tags.scm: Removed file.
106 2001-06-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
108 Changes to support tracing other than inside the repl-stack that
109 is set up by the REPL code in boot-9.scm.
111 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Conditionalize tracing on
112 whether the current stack id is in `traced-stack-ids'.
113 (traced-stack-ids, trace-all-stacks?, trace-stack, untrace-stack):
116 2001-06-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
118 * common-list.scm (member-if): Put in docstring for member-if, it
119 was a cut-n-paste error previously.
121 2001-06-26 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
123 * debug.scm (trace): Set evaluator trap options to handle tracing.
124 Don't reset trace-level to 0.

140 * boot-9.scm (system-error-errno): New.
142 2001-06-14 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
144 * common-list.scm (remove-if, remove-if-not): Fix typo: use
145 `pred', not `pred?', in the body.
147 2001-06-13 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
150 No longer use module `(ice-9 slib)'.
151 Use module `(ice-9 pretty-print)'.
152 No longer require `pretty-print'.
154 (slib:error): Delete.
155 (match:error, match:syntax-err): Rewrite.
157 Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
162 Clean up some docstrings; nfc.
166 2001-06-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
168 * boot-9.scm: Use `begin-deprecated' instead of testing
169 `include-deprecated-features' when conditionally using the (ice-9
170 rdelim) module. See below.
172 2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
174 * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
175 include-deprecated-features is true.
177 2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
179 * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print
182 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Make sure that BODY is always put into a
183 real body context so that it can contain internal definitions.
184 Thanks to Matthias Köppe!
186 * format.scm: Use (ice-9 and-let-star).
187 (format:out): Initialize format:output-col with current column of
188 `port', if it has one. Else leave it alone. Thanks to Matthias
191 2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
193 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
194 `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
195 variable, not just a visible one.
196 (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
197 (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
198 enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
199 deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
200 creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
201 (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
203 (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
205 * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
206 re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
208 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
210 * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface
211 instead of resolve-module to get at the used module.
213 2001-06-04 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
215 * rw.scm: export write-string/partial.
217 2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
219 Added exception notice to all files.
221 * boot-9.scm (module-export!): Revert 2001-06-02 change. It
222 caused more problems than it solved by accidentally re-exporting
223 importing bindings once in a while.
225 2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
227 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked
228 and try-module-dynamic-link with `begin-deprecated'.
229 (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
230 registered-modules, register-modules, warn-autoload-deprecation,
231 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call, dynamic-maybe-link,
232 find-and-link-dynamic-module, try-using-libtool-name,
233 try-using-sharlib-name, link-dynamic-module, try-module-linked,
234 try-module-dynamic-link): Deprecated. Activate deprecation
236 (define-public): Define binding before exporting it. This is to
237 avoid accidentally re-exporting a imported binding.
239 2001-06-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
241 * Makefile.am (psyntax.pp): Make it dependent on psyntax.ss and
242 fix command so that it works.
244 * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
245 to access unbound variables.
247 * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
248 (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
249 export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
250 the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
251 syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
253 2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
255 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.
256 When defining the guile-user module, do not use any modules. Add
257 them to guile-user when `top-repl' is called.
258 (resolve-interface): Expect keyword arguments instead of a `spec'.
259 (compile-interface-spec, compile-define-module-args): New.
260 (define-module): Use compile-define-module-args to construct
261 argument for process-define-module.
262 (use-modules, use-syntax): Use compile-interface-spec to construct
263 arguments for process-use-modules.
264 (process-define-module): Expect keywords in argument list.
266 2001-05-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
268 * boot-9.scm (cond-expand): Define using
269 `procedure->memoizing-macro' to get at the lexical environment.
270 Use `env-module' instead of `current-module' to get the right
273 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added "pretty-print.scm".
274 * pretty-print.scm: New file, copied from SLIB.
275 (generic-write): Return the `unspecified' value.
277 * format.scm: Autoload `pretty-print'.

304 2001-05-19 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
306 * psyntax.ss (build-lexical-var): Use gensym instead of gentemp.
307 * match.scm: Likewise.
308 * expect.scm: Likewise.
309 * psyntax.pp: Regenerated.
311 * rdelim.scm: Call `%init-rdelim-builtins'.
313 * rw.scm: Call `%init-rw-builtins'.
315 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Do not call
317 (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
318 (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
319 load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
320 top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
321 (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
322 element list when adding "." to it.
323 (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
324 dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.
326 2001-05-18 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@revel.glug.org>
328 * boot-9.scm: (resolve-interface, use-srfis): Small
330 (process-define-module): Internal proc `unrecognized'
331 now accepts arg; update callers.
332 Reverse order of interfaces added to module to be
333 consistent with that specified in `define-module' form.
335 * session.scm: (help): Use `provided?' instead of `feature?'.
336 Factor "TYPE not found for X" output into internal proc.
337 Support `(quote SYMBOL)'; call `search-documentation-files'.
338 (help-doc): If initial search fails, try using
339 `search-documentation-files'.
340 (apropos-fold-accessible, apropos-fold-all): Use `identity'
341 instead of `(lambda (x) x)'. "An identity edit", ha ha.
342 (help-usage): Mention support for "(help 'NAME)".
344 * documentation.scm: Fix documentation for Guile Documentation
345 Format Version 2: Mention required terminating newlines.
347 (find-documentation): Delete.
348 (search-documentation-files): New proc, exported.

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

368 * session.scm (apropos): Do not use `builtin-bindings', always use
370 (apropos-fold): Likewise.
372 * optargs.scm (bound?): Removed. We should not play games with
373 the magical undefined value.

379 (root-module-closure): Removed.
380 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
381 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder.
382 (scm-module-closure): Removed.
383 (make-root-module): Set the obarray of the module to the
384 `pre-modules-obarray'. Do not use a lazy binder. Set the
385 eval-closure to a `standard-interface-eval-closure'.
386 (module-define!): Do not pass name hint to make-variable, use
387 `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
388 (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
389 towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
390 set-current-module that boots the module system. These
391 definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
392 `set-current-module' call.
393 (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
394 set-current-module. It is redefined later.

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

621 2001-03-10 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
623 * buffered-input.scm (make-buffered-input-port): New, more general
624 buffered input procedure. Does not assume that a newline
625 character should be interpolated between chunks of input returned
627 (make-line-buffered-input-port): Redefine in terms of
628 make-buffered-input-port.
630 2001-03-09 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

675 * boot-9.scm (save-stack): Use `primitive-eval' for stack
676 cutting. Makes backtraces work again! Also added a reference to
677 save-stack from the place in the repl where the primitive-eval
680 2001-02-25 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
682 * match.scm: New file, including Andrew K. Wright's pattern matcher.
683 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added match.scm.
685 2001-02-16 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
687 * boot-9.scm (eval-when, eval-case): Renamed `eval-when' to
688 `eval-case', everywhere.
690 2001-02-13 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
692 * boot-9.scm (define-public): Removed spurious call to
693 `interaction-evironment'.
694 (define-public, defmacro-public): Use `export' instead of explicit
696 (eval-when): New macro.
697 (define-module, use-modules, use-syntax, export): Use it to
698 restrict the use of these forms to the top level.
699 (define-public, defmacro-public): Only export binding when on
701 (process-define-module): Call `set-current-module' with the

704 fuss (but only on top-level).
705 (named-module-use!): New function.
706 (top-repl): Do not use `define-module'. Use equivalent low-level
709 2001-02-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
711 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): Use `primitive-eval' instead of
713 (define-public): Do not use `eval'.
715 2001-02-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
717 * and-let-star-compat.scm: Display the warning to the
718 `current-error-port'.
720 2001-02-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
722 Avoid the use of "*" in file names for the benefit of lesser
725 * and-let-star.scm, and-let*.scm: Renamed `and-let*.scm' to
726 `and-let-star.scm'. Updated module name as well.
727 * and-let-star-compat.scm: New file, installed as `and-let*.scm'.

739 * boot-9.scm (define-option-interface): New macro. Allows to
740 conveniently define a group of option interface functions.
742 (readline-options readline-enable readline-disable,
743 readline-set!): Moved to guile-readline/readline.scm.
745 2001-01-24 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
747 * boot-9.scm: don't import (ice-9 rdelim) here. it's done

754 * rdelim.scm: new file implementing module (ice-9 rdelim).
755 * ice-9.scm (scm-line-incrementors read-line! read-delimited!

757 scm-line-incrementors is not exported.
758 * boot-9.scm: import (ice-9 rdelim) for backwards compatibility,
760 * lineio.scm: use module (ice-9 rdelim).
761 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add rdelim.scm.
763 2000-12-29 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
765 * boot-9.scm (root-module-closure, scm-module-closure): Remove
766 calls '(symbol-interned? #f s)'. Formerly, these calls were
767 basically no-ops, guaranteed to return #t if 's' was a symbol.
768 After the separation of symbols and bindings, a call to
769 '(symbol-interned? #f s)' will only return #t if there really is a
770 binding for 's' in the scm_symhash table. Thanks to Dale P. Smith
771 for providing a test case that helped finding this bug.
773 2000-12-13 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
775 * session.scm (apropos): Completed the last patch, which did only
776 half the job. Thanks to Dale P. Smith.
778 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
780 * session.scm (apropos, apropos-fold): There are no weak bindings
783 2000-12-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
785 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Lookup 'use-emacs-interface in
788 2000-12-07 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
790 * emacs.scm (flush-whitespace): Fix spelling typo ("recieving").
792 2000-11-28 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
794 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited), lineio.scm
795 (make-line-buffering-input-port), regex.scm (match:prefix,
796 match:suffix, match:substring, regexp-substitute/global), slib.scm
797 (slib-parent-dir), string-fun.scm (split-after-char,
798 split-before-char, split-discarding-char, split-after-char-last,

804 sans-trailing-whitespace, sans-leading-whitespace,
805 sans-final-newline): Use substring instead of
806 make-shared-substring.
808 2000-11-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
810 * boot-9.scm: values?, get-values, values, call-with-values:
811 removed. values and call-with-values are now primitives and
812 the other two were only exported by accident. don't define
813 *values-rtd* record type or handle multiple values in
816 2000-11-07 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
818 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe): added docstrings for open-input-pipe
819 and open-output-pipe.
821 2000-11-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
823 * popen.scm (open-process): bug fix: don't use
824 close-all-ports-except to close ports in the child process, since
825 it causes port buffers to be flushed. they may be flushed again
826 in the parent, causing duplicate output. use a more elaborate
827 method for setting up the child descriptors (thanks to David
828 Pirotte for the bug report).
829 standard file descriptors 0, 1, 2 in the child process
830 are now set up from current-input-port etc., where possible.
832 2000-10-10 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
834 * syncase.scm (eval): string=? requires a string argument.

852 2000-09-29 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
854 * documentation.scm (find-documentation-in-file): Modified
855 according to changed format of guile-procedures.txt caused by my
856 snarfing/makeinfo changes in libguile.
858 * session.scm (help-doc): Improvements to (help) output: (i) a
859 friendlier Emacs-style introduction line; (ii) where the help arg
860 matches multiple documented entries, print an initial list of the
861 entries for which documentation is found, before printing the
862 actual documentation entries themselves.
864 2000-09-20 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
866 * boot-9.scm: Removed comment. (Thanks to Brad Knotwell.)
868 2000-09-12 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

886 2000-08-27 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

890 2000-08-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

894 (symbol-append): Map `symbol->string' on
896 (obarray-symbol-append, obarray-gensym): Simply removed. I don't
897 think I'll announce this in NEWS even. One of the functions never
899 (find-and-link-dynamic-module, keyword->symbol): Use
901 (try-module-autoload, process-define-module): Rewrote using R5RS
904 2000-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

927 2000-08-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
929 * psyntax.ss (top-level-eval-hook, local-eval-hook): Pass
930 `(interaction-environment)' as second arg to `eval'. This is
931 completely equivalent with the state before the change to eval of
932 2000-08-11, but we should extend psyntax.ss to be module aware.
933 (Thanks to Ian Bicking.)
935 * emacs.scm (emacs-symdoc): Parenthesis fix.
937 2000-08-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
939 * r5rs.scm (interaction-environment): Removed definition. (Is now
940 provided by libguile/modules.c.)

945 * boot-9.scm (record-constructor, record-accessor,
946 record-modifier, scm-style-repl): Add second arg to eval.

998 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1000 * common-list.scm (intersection, set-difference, remove-if,
1001 remove-if-not): Made tail-recursive. Thanks to William Webber

1029 (help): Regexp-quote a name given as a symbol.
1031 2000-06-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1033 * common-list.scm (list*): Removed, since this function is
1034 implemented as a primitive in libguile/list.c.
1036 2000-06-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1038 * session.scm (help): Warn user if 'regex isn't provided.
1040 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1042 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: Removed deprecated module.
1044 2000-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1075 * session.scm: Update references to `proc-doc' to be
1076 `proc-documentation'
1078 * doc.scm: Cleaned up a great deal. Put variables at the top of
1079 the file, eliminated `object-documentation' that was broken
1080 (referencing Scwm), drop `help' as session.scm has a better
1081 supported version of that procedure. Rename `proc-doc' to
1082 `proc-documentation' -- `procedure-documentation' is a primitive
1083 getter function, so I use the shorter name for this more useful
1084 function. (Alternatively, we could rename the primitive

1100 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
1101 directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
1102 to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
1103 trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
1104 that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
1105 of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
1106 reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
1108 2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1110 * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
1111 accept complex numbers as parameter.

1115 * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
1116 label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
1118 2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1120 * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
1121 `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
1122 (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
1123 instead of remove-if when iterating.
1124 (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
1125 delete-if! when iterating.
1127 2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1129 * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
1131 2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>

1135 2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1137 * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
1138 the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
1139 the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
1140 descriptors still in use in parent ports.
1142 2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1144 * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
1145 reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
1147 2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1149 * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
1150 print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
1151 individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
1152 level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
1154 2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1156 * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
1157 because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
1159 Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1161 * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
1162 slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
1164 Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1166 * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
1169 Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1171 * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
1172 source of the numerous very short changes.
1174 Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1176 * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
1179 * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
1182 Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1184 * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
1187 2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1189 * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
1190 so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
1192 2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1194 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
1197 2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
1199 * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
1200 since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
1201 the time first either, since expect-select does it.
1203 Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1205 * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
1206 re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
1207 which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
1208 Narazaki for this change.
1210 Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1212 * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
1213 `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
1216 * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
1217 primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
1219 2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1221 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
1222 inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
1224 1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1226 * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
1227 scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
1228 use define-public to export from the module.
1230 Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1232 * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
1233 not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
1234 realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
1236 Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1238 * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
1240 1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
1242 * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
1243 were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
1245 1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1247 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
1249 * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
1251 * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
1253 1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1255 * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
1256 long_long uniform vectors.
1258 1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1260 * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
1261 take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
1263 1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1265 * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
1266 script to create generated files like this one.
1268 1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
1270 * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
1271 available before using getpw and getuid.
1272 (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
1273 (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
1275 (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
1276 check for .guile, instead of stat.
1277 (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
1279 (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
1280 and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
1281 Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
1283 posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
1284 boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
1286 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
1288 1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1290 * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
1291 than 'exit-debugger.
1293 * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
1294 (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
1296 * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
1298 1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1300 * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
1301 Mark module with :no-backtrace.
1302 ("position"): New command.
1303 (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
1304 (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
1305 (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected
1306 to return a valid state.)
1307 (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
1309 1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1311 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
1312 match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
1315 1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1317 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
1318 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
1320 1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1322 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
1324 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
1326 * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
1327 (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
1329 * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
1330 display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
1331 (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
1333 ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
1336 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1338 * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
1339 slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
1341 * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
1343 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1345 * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
1346 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
1347 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
1348 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
1350 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
1353 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
1354 both forward and backward views of the stack
1355 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
1356 Use selector `frame-number';
1357 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
1358 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
1360 Use readline conditionally.
1362 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1364 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
1365 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
1366 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
1368 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
1369 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
1372 1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1374 * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
1376 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
1378 * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
1380 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1382 1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1384 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
1385 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
1386 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
1387 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
1388 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
1389 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
1390 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
1391 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
1392 libguile-config-stamp.
1393 * version.scm.in: Delete.
1394 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
1395 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
1396 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
1397 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
1399 1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1401 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
1402 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
1403 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
1405 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
1406 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
1407 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
1408 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
1411 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
1413 1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1415 * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
1417 1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1419 * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
1420 (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
1422 1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
1424 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
1425 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
1426 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
1427 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
1428 objects starting with '#/'.
1430 1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
1432 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
1433 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
1434 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
1435 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
1436 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
1437 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
1439 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1440 module-modified): New procedures.
1441 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1442 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
1444 1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1446 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
1449 1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1451 * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
1452 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
1453 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1455 * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
1458 1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1460 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
1461 at multiple calls to read.
1462 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
1463 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
1464 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
1465 continued-lines prompt.
1467 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
1468 reading expressions.
1470 1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1472 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
1473 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1475 1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1477 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
1478 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
1481 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1483 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
1484 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
1486 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
1487 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
1488 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
1489 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
1490 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
1493 1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1495 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
1496 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1498 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
1500 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
1501 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
1502 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
1503 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
1505 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
1507 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1509 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
1510 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
1511 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
1514 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1516 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
1517 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
1518 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
1519 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
1520 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
1521 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1522 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
1523 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
1524 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
1525 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
1526 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
1528 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1530 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
1531 peeked from the stream.
1532 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
1533 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
1534 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
1536 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1538 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
1539 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
1541 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1543 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
1544 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
1545 exiting repl with single control-D.
1547 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
1549 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
1550 error catching loop after quit received.
1551 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
1553 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
1554 primitive exit if non-interactive.
1555 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
1557 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
1558 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
1560 * popen.scm: new file.
1562 1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1564 * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
1565 (reverse-iota): removed.
1567 1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
1569 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
1570 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
1572 1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1574 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
1575 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
1576 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
1577 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1578 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
1580 1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1582 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
1584 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
1585 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1587 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
1588 Guile's module system.
1590 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
1592 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
1593 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
1594 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
1595 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
1596 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
1597 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
1599 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
1600 '() when the condition is false.
1602 1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1604 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1606 1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1608 * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
1610 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1612 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
1613 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
1614 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
1616 1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1618 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
1619 argument order for hash-fold.
1621 1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1623 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
1625 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
1626 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
1628 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
1629 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
1630 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
1631 has been added to the load path).
1633 Use try-load-module.
1635 1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1637 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
1638 module between system and user state.
1640 1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1642 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
1644 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
1647 1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1649 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
1650 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
1651 system can create a wrapper class for it.
1653 1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1655 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
1656 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
1657 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
1658 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
1659 stack frame encountered.
1661 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
1662 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
1663 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
1664 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
1667 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
1668 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
1669 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
1670 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
1673 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
1674 define-module switches:
1676 (define-module (foo)
1679 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
1682 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
1683 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
1684 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
1685 module it is a system frame.
1687 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
1688 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
1689 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
1690 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
1691 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
1693 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
1694 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
1695 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
1696 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
1697 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
1698 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
1700 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
1701 status of a module.;
1702 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
1703 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
1705 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
1706 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
1707 closure to the module.
1709 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
1711 1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1713 * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
1715 1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1717 * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
1719 1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1721 Fix from Russ McManus:
1722 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
1723 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
1724 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
1725 either an optional or required value.
1727 1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
1729 * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
1731 * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
1732 of the '() key, not `rest'.
1734 A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
1735 * getopt-long.scm: New file.
1736 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
1737 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1739 1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
1741 * optargs.scm: New file.
1742 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
1743 not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
1745 1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1747 * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
1748 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
1749 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1751 1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1753 * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
1754 the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
1757 1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1759 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1761 1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1763 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
1764 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
1765 applied to the module itself.
1767 1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1769 * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
1771 * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
1772 (These shortcomings were my fault.)
1774 1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1776 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
1778 1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1780 * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
1782 1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1784 * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
1785 which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
1787 1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1789 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
1790 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
1791 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
1792 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
1793 among BINDINGS is referenced.
1794 (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
1795 for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
1797 1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1799 * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
1800 if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
1802 1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
1804 * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
1805 sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
1808 1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1810 * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
1812 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1814 * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
1816 1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1818 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
1819 code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
1820 adapt to the new hooks.
1822 1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1824 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
1825 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
1826 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
1828 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
1829 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
1831 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
1832 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
1833 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
1834 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
1835 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
1836 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
1837 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
1838 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
1839 first to register linked modules.
1841 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
1842 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
1843 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
1845 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
1846 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
1847 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
1848 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
1850 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
1852 (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
1855 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
1856 libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
1857 make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
1859 1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
1861 * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
1862 object representing the current local evaluation environment.
1863 This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
1865 1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1867 * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
1868 a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
1869 result of the last form.
1871 1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1873 * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
1876 * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
1878 * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
1879 readline-set!: New options interface.
1881 * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
1883 1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1885 * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
1886 at the end of boot-9.scm.
1888 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1890 * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
1891 correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
1893 1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1895 * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
1896 interactive session.
1897 (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
1899 * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
1900 history at exit (add to exit-hook).
1902 Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1904 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
1906 1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1908 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
1909 read line was empty.
1911 1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1913 * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
1914 r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
1916 * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
1918 Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
1920 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
1921 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
1922 * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
1924 * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
1925 entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
1927 (load-emacs-interface): New function.
1928 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
1929 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
1931 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
1932 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
1933 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
1934 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
1935 * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
1936 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
1938 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1940 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
1941 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
1943 1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1945 * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
1946 and short vectors #h(...).
1948 1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1950 * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
1951 set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
1952 that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
1954 1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1956 * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
1957 testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
1958 porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
1960 1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1962 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
1963 print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
1965 * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
1966 (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
1967 to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
1968 Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
1970 1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
1972 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
1975 * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
1976 order to allow the empty list as arg.
1977 (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
1978 context with traps enabled.
1980 1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1982 * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
1984 (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
1986 1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
1988 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
1989 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
1990 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
1991 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
1992 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
1994 1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
1996 * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
1997 automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
1999 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2001 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
2003 1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2005 * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
2007 1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2009 * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
2011 1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2013 * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
2014 after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
2016 1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
2018 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
2019 ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
2020 more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
2021 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
2024 * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
2025 false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
2026 list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
2028 1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2030 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
2031 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
2032 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
2033 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
2034 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
2035 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
2036 (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
2038 1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2040 * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
2042 1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2044 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
2045 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
2046 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
2047 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
2048 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
2049 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
2051 1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2053 * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
2054 themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
2055 loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
2058 1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2060 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
2062 1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2064 * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
2066 1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
2068 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
2071 1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2073 * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
2075 1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2077 * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
2078 enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
2080 1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2082 * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
2083 similar in use to `use-modules'.
2084 Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
2085 (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
2087 (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
2088 (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
2090 1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2092 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
2094 1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2096 * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
2097 possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
2100 * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
2101 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
2103 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
2104 Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
2105 from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
2107 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
2109 1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2111 * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
2113 * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
2114 Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
2116 1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2118 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
2120 1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2122 * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
2123 nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
2125 * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
2127 * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
2130 1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2132 * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
2133 (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
2135 1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
2137 * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
2139 1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2141 * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
2144 1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2146 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
2147 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
2148 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
2149 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
2150 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
2153 1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2155 A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
2156 * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
2157 (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
2159 1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2161 * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
2163 * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
2164 (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
2166 1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2168 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
2169 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
2170 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
2171 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
2172 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
2173 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
2174 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
2177 Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2179 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
2182 1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
2184 * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
2185 contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
2186 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
2187 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
2188 modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
2189 (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
2191 Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2193 * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
2194 usefully so they will work from a script.
2196 1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2198 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
2199 neighborhood of the record code.
2201 Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2203 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
2204 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
2205 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
2206 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
2208 Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2210 * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
2211 installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.

2216 Add support for readline function.
2217 * readline.scm: New module.
2218 * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
2219 (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
2220 ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
2222 (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
2223 repl-reader to use them.
2224 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
2226 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
2228 Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>

2243 (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
2244 error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
2246 1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>

2266 Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2268 * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): New experimental function.
2270 Tue Sep 30 13:12:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2272 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
2273 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
2274 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
2275 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
2276 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
2278 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List new files here, for

2290 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
2292 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
2293 the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
2296 Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2298 * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.
2300 * boot-9.scm: Define options interface procedures here instead.
2302 Sat Sep 27 20:19:20 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2304 * boot-9.scm (separate-fields-discarding-char,
2305 separate-fields-after-char, separate-fields-before-char): Call
2306 continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
2307 field a separate argument.
2309 * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
2311 Sat Sep 20 14:23:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2313 * slib.scm (slib:load): Export.
2315 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): Bugfix: Don't add "/" to an empty

2328 separate-fields-before-char): Bugfix from Maciej Stachowiak
2329 <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
2330 (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
2332 (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
2333 corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.
2334 (resolve-module): Resolve modules in this order: 1. Already
2335 registered modules (for example those which have been statically
2336 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
2339 Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2341 * boot-9.scm (iota): Renamed list-reverse! --> reverse!

2350 * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
2352 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
2353 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
2354 syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
2355 expansion inside the slib module.
2357 * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output
2359 (build-lexical-var): Seed gensym with symbolic name.

2368 Should be used inside the (ice-9 syncase) module with (use-syntax
2369 syncase) and with the current directory containing the psyntax.ss
2371 Added hack to transfer syntactic information from the builtin
2372 variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
2375 Fri Sep 5 05:47:36 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@faun.nada.kth.se>
2377 * syncase.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): Removed hook setup.
2378 (syncase): Publish syntax transformer to be used with
2380 (sc-macro): Use this as the value when publishing macros.
2382 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Added `transformer'.
2383 (make-module): Modified initialization.
2384 (module-transformer, set-module-transformer!): Selector and
2385 mutator for module-associated transformer.

2395 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
2397 * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
2398 properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
2399 This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
2400 Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
2401 Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
2403 * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.
2404 (set-current-module): Switch to and from sc-expand as
2405 scm:eval-transformer when going into and out of modules using
2407 (module-use!): Set scm:eval-transformer to sc-expand when adding
2408 the syncase interface.
2410 Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2412 * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
2413 globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
2414 workings of the current module system).
2416 Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2418 * psyntax.ss: Updated.
2419 psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut

2428 Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2430 * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
2431 according to the following priorities:
2432 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
2433 2. bindings from the-scm-module
2435 This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
2436 disabling the scheme interpreter.
2437 (new-interpreter): New function.
2439 * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
2440 gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
2441 it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
2443 Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2445 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2447 Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
2449 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, so it uses "tar", not "gtar".
2451 Mon Aug 25 22:00:44 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2453 * emacs.scm (object->string, format, error-args->string): New

2457 Mon Aug 25 16:15:55 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2459 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
2460 accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
2463 Sun Aug 24 01:03:10 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2465 * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
2466 (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.

2468 symbols matching regexp.
2470 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): New function. Convert frame
2471 number (as displayed in the backtrace) to frame index (to be used
2474 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New arguments: interactivep: when
2475 non-false, send back results to Emacs; colnum: Column number;
2476 Use modules (ice-9 debug) and (ice-9 session);
2477 (no-stack, no-source): New simple-actions;
2478 (result-to-emacs): New procedure. Sends data to Emacs via the
2480 (get-frame-source, emacs-select-frame, emacs-frame-eval,
2481 emacs-symdoc): New procedures.
2483 Wed Aug 20 13:21:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2485 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Adjust stack narrowing.
2486 (whitespace-chars): Include #\np.
2488 * syncase.scm: Also turn off debugging evaluator and recording of
2489 procedure names during loading of psyntax.pp.
2491 * psyntax.pp: Removed leading blanks => 800K -> 100K.
2493 Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2495 * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling
2496 macros. Instead cut the stack with start-stack.
2497 Load psyntax.pp with recording of positions turned off.

2501 * syncase.scm: New file: Guile-adaption for syntax-case macros.
2502 * psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Syntax-case macros, portable version 2 by
2503 R. Kent Dybvig, Oscar Waddell, Bob Hieb and Carl Bruggeman
2505 Mon Aug 18 21:58:25 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2507 * session.scm: New file: Session support.
2508 (apropos): New procedure: List bindings given regexp.

2515 Thu Aug 14 19:55:37 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2517 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Something has changed in the reader so
2518 that we now should set the port line count to the specified value
2519 (linum) instead of (- linum 1).
2521 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use load-from-path instead of
2522 primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at
2525 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Save stack already in signal handler in
2526 order to narrow it correctly.
2527 (save-stack): Adjust narrowing tag for the top of load-stacks.

2534 Sat Jul 26 08:00:42 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2536 * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.
2538 Sat Jul 26 21:30:10 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2540 * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the
2541 builtin `with-fluids*'.
2543 Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2545 * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
2546 *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
2547 require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
2549 Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2551 * boot-9.scm: If using emacs interface, enable backtraces
2554 Mon Jul 21 06:45:45 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2556 * boot-9.scm (dup->port, dup->inport, dup->outport, dup->fdes,

2562 Fri Jul 11 00:13:43 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2564 Changes to compile under gnu-win32, from Marcus Daniels:

2581 Fix inconsistencies in parsing of #/ style lists.
2582 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation): New function.
2583 (parse-path-symbol): Deleted. Replaced by above.
2584 Plug in read-path-list-notation as the parser for #/ lists,
2585 instead of the anonymous lambda form calling parse-path-symbol.
2586 (Thanks to Maurizio Vitale.)
2588 * boot-9.scm (make-list): Remove the definition of this function
2589 from the (ice-9 common-list) module; make the `init' argument
2590 optional in the scm module's definition, to match the deleted
2591 definition. Harmony reigneth? (Thanks to Bernard URBAN.)
2593 Sun Jun 22 18:33:17 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2595 Try to detect when people are using one version of libguile and a
2596 different version of ice-9. People have been skewing things and
2597 sending in bug reports.
2598 * version.scm.in: New file, which the configure script munges to
2599 produce version.scm, which contains the ice-9 config stamp.
2600 * boot-9.scm: Compare the libguile and ice-9 config stamps;
2601 display a warning if the two are different.
2602 * Makefile.am: Install version.scm, but don't distribute it.
2603 Distribute version.scm.in, but don't install it.
2604 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2606 Thu Jun 19 21:01:16 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2608 * slib.scm (slib:warn): Alias for WARN function.
2610 Fri Jun 13 00:32:04 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2612 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range
2613 check. Correctly check for struct printer tag.
2615 * expect.scm: Turn this into a module, (ice-9 expect).
2616 (expect-port, expect-timeout, expect-timeout-proc,
2617 expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
2618 expect-select): Make these public definitions.
2619 (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
2620 regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
2623 * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
2624 users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
2627 * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
2628 boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.
2630 * boot-9.scm (ipow-by-squaring, butlast): Fix uses of outdated
2633 * boot-9.scm (with-excursion-getter-and-setter, q-rear): Doc
2636 Wed Jun 11 00:31:40 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.red-bean.com>
2638 * Makefile.in: Regenerated after xtra_PLUGIN_guile_libs change in
2641 Fri Jun 6 14:37:18 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2643 * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Bugfix: Check the layout of the
2644 vtable and not the one of the struct.
2646 Wed Jun 4 23:27:16 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2648 * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,
2649 make-struct-printer, set-struct-printer-in-vtable!): New bindings
2650 to support printing of structures.
2651 (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Add slot to hold printing
2652 function and initialize it with something appropriate. Removed
2653 commented out printing code.
2654 (record-type-name, record-type-fields): Adjusted slot offsets.
2655 (%print-module): Reduce argument list to "mod" and "port".

2664 don't define ticks-interrupt etc.
2665 top-repl: install signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS
2666 during call to scm-style-repl.
2668 Fri May 30 18:08:10 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2670 * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
2671 basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
2672 source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
2673 make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
2674 breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
2676 Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2678 * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.
2679 * boot-9.scm: If the `regex' feature is present, use the module
2682 Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
2684 * regex.scm: New file.
2685 * Makefile.am (subpkgdata_DATA): Add regex.scm.
2686 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2688 Mon May 26 17:24:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>

2691 gwish.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm, nonblocking.scm,
2692 oldprint.scm, poe.scm, r4rs.scm, source.scm, tags.scm, test.scm,
2693 threads.scm: New address for FSF.
2695 Fri May 16 04:09:45 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2697 * debug.scm: Update copyright years; this file has been worked on
2700 Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2702 * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
2703 and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
2704 since the regex library is currently AWOL.
2706 Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2708 * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already
2709 implemented in C, so there's no point in making a divergable copy
2712 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2714 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2716 Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2718 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, using automake-1.1p.
2720 Tue May 13 02:48:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2722 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't read a line from
2723 current input when quit is encountered, the previous change
2726 Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2728 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
2729 consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
2730 avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
2732 Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2734 * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating
2735 the Scheme code like code yet.
2736 * Makefile.in: Resrac,husrched.
2738 Wed Apr 30 15:25:15 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2740 * boot-9.scm (link-dynamic-module): Do not catch errors from
2741 dynamic-link and dynamic-call. When the shared library exists it
2742 is now assumed to be suitable for a dynamic C module.
2744 Fri Apr 25 21:21:35 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2746 * boot-9.scm (process-use-modules): New function to support the
2748 (use-modules): throw an error iff one of the requested modules
2751 Tue Apr 29 06:54:46 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2753 * boot-9.scm: don't define timer-thunk or gc-thunk.
2755 Sun Apr 27 17:56:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2757 * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.
2759 * Makefile.am (subpkgdatadir): Use "ice-9" instead of "@module@";
2760 we're not using AM_INIT_GUILE_MODULE any more.
2761 * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
2763 Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2765 Get 'make dist' to work again.
2766 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove PLUGIN files.
2767 * Makefile.in: Regenerated, like two tons of fleas.
2769 Changes for reduced Guile distribution: one configure script,
2771 * configure.in, configure: Removed.
2772 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
2774 Sat Apr 19 08:03:50 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2776 * boot-9.scm (eval-string, command-line, load-user-init): New
2779 Sat Apr 12 08:27:05 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2781 * boot-9.scm (log10): defined.
2783 Tue Apr 1 17:46:49 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2785 * expect.scm (expect-select): correct the millisecond timeout
2786 arithmetic (from Marko.Kohtala@ntc.nokia.com).
2788 Mon Mar 31 03:23:19 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2790 * boot-9.scm (open-input-pipe, open-output-pipe): defined here
2791 instead of in libguile.
2792 (tm:sec etc.) new accessors for broken-down time.
2793 (set-tm:sec etc.) new setters for broken-down time.
2795 Thu Mar 27 05:06:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2797 * boot-9.scm (netent:addrtype, servent:port): added missing
2799 (netent:net, servent:proto): repaired.
2800 (utsname:sysname etc.): new accessors for uname.
2802 Tue Mar 25 03:04:03 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2804 * boot-9.scm (sockaddr:fam, sockaddr:path, sockaddr:addr,
2805 sockaddr:port): new functions.
2807 Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2809 * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
2810 by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
2811 passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
2812 and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
2814 Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2816 * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
2817 setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
2819 Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2821 * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
2823 Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2825 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
2826 keywords and symbols.
2828 Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2830 * slib.scm: update read usage.
2832 * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
2833 Don't define read-sharp.
2835 * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
2836 (read-sharp): removed.
2837 Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
2838 case_i or read-sharp arguments.
2840 Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2842 * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
2844 * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
2845 primitive procedure.)
2847 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
2848 interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
2850 Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2852 * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
2854 Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2856 * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
2858 Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2860 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
2862 * (exit): alias for quit.
2864 Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2866 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
2867 return the quit args.
2868 (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
2869 error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
2870 stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
2872 (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
2874 Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2876 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
2878 * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
2879 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
2881 * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
2882 Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
2884 * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
2885 stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
2888 Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2890 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
2892 * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
2893 (add-hooks!): New macro.
2894 Change hooks to use these functions.
2896 * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
2897 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
2898 making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
2900 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
2901 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
2902 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
2903 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
2904 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
2905 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
2906 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
2909 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
2910 and exit-frame exceptions.
2912 * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
2913 (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
2914 (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
2915 string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
2916 result; otherwise display "> ".
2917 (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
2919 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
2920 `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
2921 we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
2922 repository version runnable.
2924 Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2926 * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
2927 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
2928 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
2929 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
2930 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
2931 boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
2933 Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2935 * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
2936 (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
2938 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
2940 * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
2941 builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
2943 Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
2945 * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
2947 Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2949 * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
2952 Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2954 * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
2955 uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
2957 Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2959 * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
2962 Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2964 * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
2965 read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
2967 Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
2969 Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
2971 * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
2972 init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
2973 find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
2974 try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
2975 dynamic linking of modules.
2976 (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
2977 after failing to load it as Scheme code.
2979 Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
2981 * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
2983 Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
2985 * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
2988 * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
2989 the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
2992 Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
2994 * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
2995 (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
2996 <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
2998 Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3000 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
3001 typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
3004 Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3006 * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
3007 been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
3008 (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
3010 Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3012 * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
3013 controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
3014 (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
3015 (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
3017 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
3018 is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
3019 bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
3020 appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
3021 (such as the-scm-module).
3023 Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3025 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
3028 Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
3030 * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
3031 * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
3032 * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
3034 Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
3036 * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
3037 (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
3038 function, use it accordingly.
3040 Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3042 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
3043 function of no arguments.
3044 * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
3045 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
3046 set-current-module): Uses changed.
3047 (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
3048 root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
3049 set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
3050 (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
3051 *top-level-eval-closure*.
3053 Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3055 * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
3056 (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
3058 Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3060 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3061 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
3062 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
3063 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
3064 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
3066 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
3069 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
3070 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
3071 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
3072 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
3074 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
3076 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
3078 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
3079 If the user wants to see this, he can do
3080 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
3082 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
3085 Added `before-read-hook'.
3087 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
3089 (provide): New function.
3091 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
3094 (backtrace): New function.
3096 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
3097 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
3098 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
3099 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
3100 is found in operator position in a frame.
3102 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
3105 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
3106 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
3107 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
3109 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
3111 (library-vicinity): Updated.
3113 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
3115 (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
3117 Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3119 * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
3121 * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
3122 try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
3124 * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
3125 so they'll get distributed.
3127 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
3128 should see as little clutter as possible.
3129 * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
3130 * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
3131 (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
3133 * r4rs.scm: New file.
3134 * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
3135 (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
3136 open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
3137 close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
3138 call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
3139 with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
3140 with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
3141 with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
3142 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
3144 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
3145 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
3147 * test.scm: New file.
3149 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
3150 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
3151 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
3153 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
3154 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
3156 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
3158 (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
3159 call %load-announce.
3161 Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3163 * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
3164 stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
3165 stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
3167 (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
3169 Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3171 * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
3172 that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
3173 SCSH (which this isn't).
3175 Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3177 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3179 Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
3181 * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
3182 after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
3183 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
3185 (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
3186 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
3187 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
3188 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
3191 Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3193 * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
3195 * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
3197 * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
3198 error-catching-loop.
3199 Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
3200 Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
3201 Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
3203 Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
3204 error-catching-loop.
3206 Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3208 * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
3209 (make-module): Rework for readability.
3210 (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
3211 should be '(), not #f.
3213 * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
3214 primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
3216 Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3218 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
3219 the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
3222 Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3224 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
3225 handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
3226 Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
3227 start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
3229 Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3231 * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
3233 Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3235 * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
3237 * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
3238 throw-handler-default.
3239 ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
3241 ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
3243 ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
3244 error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
3246 Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3248 * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
3249 make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
3250 port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
3251 * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
3253 Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3255 * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
3256 Append "." to the default %load-path.
3257 (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
3258 (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
3260 (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
3261 (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
3262 (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
3263 (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
3266 Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3268 * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
3270 * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
3273 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
3276 * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
3278 Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3280 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
3281 the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
3283 Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3285 * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
3287 * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
3289 Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3291 * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
3292 to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
3293 Don't set up 'error as a key.
3294 Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
3295 (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
3297 (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
3298 basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
3299 try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
3300 they seem redundant.
3301 (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
3302 (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
3303 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
3304 (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
3305 directly files starting with "/").
3306 (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
3307 (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
3309 (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
3311 Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3313 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
3314 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
3315 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
3316 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
3317 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
3318 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
3319 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
3320 robust to just do it in the C code.
3322 Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3324 * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
3325 %try-load itself was the primitive.
3326 (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
3327 Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
3328 (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
3330 Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
3332 * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
3333 (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
3334 for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
3336 Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3338 * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
3339 system-error, not every kind of error.
3340 (scm-error): new procedure.
3342 Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3344 * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
3346 Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3348 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
3349 SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
3350 of args are supplied.
3351 (%%system-errors): removed.
3352 (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
3353 ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
3354 %%handle-system-error.
3355 (%%default-error-handler): removed.
3356 (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
3357 Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
3358 (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
3360 Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3362 * boot-9.scm: initialize new error keys (see libguile/ChangeLog).
3363 (%%handle-system-error key): check subr is not #f before printing.
3364 Recognize %s (embed an argument using "display") and
3365 %S (embed an argument using "write").
3367 Sun Sep 15 03:55:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3369 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): set args and rest to
3370 the empty list if they are #f.
3371 Initialize out-of-range as an error key.
3373 Sat Sep 14 03:41:15 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3375 * PLUGIN/REQ: remove the "ice-9 lgh" line which causes a cycle.
3377 * boot-9.scm: remove leading %% from references to '%%system-error.
3378 (%%handle-system-error): don't pass all the thrown arguments when
3379 aborting, just the key and subr.
3380 Remove the code to "Install default handlers for built-in errors."
3381 Remove the definition of the syserror procedure.
3382 Associate 'numerical-overflow with default handler.
3384 Fri Sep 13 04:58:11 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3386 * boot-9.scm: Name change: value-ref --> local-ref
3387 resolved-ref --> nested-ref Motivation: conformance to the other
3388 dictionary operators: list-ref operates on list, vector-ref
3389 operates on vector, nested-ref operates on nested namespace,
3390 local-ref operates on the local nested namespace.
3392 Sat Sep 7 06:44:47 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3394 * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error): recognise errors thrown
3395 by lgh-error (fill-message etc.)
3396 (fill-message): check first whether args is null.
3397 (fill-message): bug fix and check that args is a list.
3399 Thu Sep 5 11:33:41 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3401 * boot-9.scm: %load-path is initialized in C code now.
3402 (implementation-vicinity, parse-path): Deleted, along with code to
3403 initialize %load-path.
3405 * boot-9.scm (in-vicinity): If the vicinity doesn't end with a
3406 "/", use one to separate it from the file.
3408 Thu Aug 29 23:05:11 1996 Thomas Morgan <tmorgan@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
3410 * boot-9.scm (%load-path): Add the site directory.
3411 Add the directory named after the version number.
3412 Prepend the version number to the other directories in the path.
3413 Simplify by mapping the common prefix onto each item.
3414 * Makefile.in (datadir, pkgdatadir, pkgverdatadir, subpkgdatadir,
3415 sitedatadir): New definitions.
3416 (libparent, libdir, install_path): Replaced by above.
3417 (install): Create the above directories.
3418 Put the source files into subpkgdatadir.
3419 (uninstall): Remove the above directories.
3421 Thu Aug 29 21:48:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
3423 Don't use the PLUGIN system to gather information for the
3424 Makefile's distribution and installation targets; just put it all
3425 in the Makefile directly.
3426 * PLUGIN/this.configure (scm_files, aux_files): Remove sections
3428 * configure.in: Remove code that gets and substitutes scm_files and
3430 * Makefile.in (scm_files, aux_files): Write out the list of files
3431 here, where people expect to find them.
3433 Fri Aug 23 06:44:36 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3435 * boot-9.scm: Preliminary solution: optionally load the debug
3436 module. Changed "gls" to "guile1.0b3".
3438 * debug.scm: New file: debug extensions.
3440 Wed Aug 21 13:06:56 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3442 * boot-9.scm (print-vector): Renamed weak-hash-table? -->
3443 weak-key-hash-table?. (Again!)
3445 Tue Aug 20 07:31:39 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
3447 * boot-9.scm (print-vector, macro-table, xformer-table):
3448 Renamed weak-hash-table --> weak-key-hash-table.
3450 * poe.scm (funcq-memo): Renamed weak-hash-table -->
3451 weak-key-hash-table.
3453 Sat Aug 3 06:16:35 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3455 * boot-9.scm (*null-device*): global constant from goonix.
3456 (move->fdes): adjusted for boolean primitive-move->fdes. return
3457 the modified port, always set revealed count to 1 (SCSH compatible).
3458 (release-port-handle port): from goonix (SCSH compatible).
3459 (%open-file): removed.
3460 (open-input-file, open-output-file, file-exists?, file-is-directory?):
3461 modified for open-file change (does not return #f).
3463 Thu Aug 1 02:52:42 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
3465 * Makefile.in (dist-dir): New target for new dist system.
3466 (manifest): Deleted.
3467 * PLUGIN/this.configure (aux_files): Removed PLUGIN; it's a
3468 directory, and needs special treatment in the dist-dir target.
3470 Thu Aug 1 09:00:21 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3472 * boot-9.scm: remove the wrappers for '%' system primitives,
3473 now that they throw errors directly.
3474 remove make-simple-wrapper and similar functions.
3475 protect a call to getenv which may now throw an exception.
3477 Wed Jul 31 23:44:42 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
3479 * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): new macro.
3481 Fri Apr 19 13:53:08 1996 Tom Lord <lord@beehive>
3483 * The more things change...
