+2008-07-17 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * gds-client.scm (handle-nondebug-protocol): Add support for
+ setting a trap on code that is about to be evaluated.
+
+2008-04-14 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * gds-client.scm (gds-debug-trap): Ensure that frame index passed
+ to Emacs is always positive.
+
+2008-03-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm (command-loop): Use
+ needed modules.
+
+2008-03-12 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * debugging/.cvsignore: New.
+
+ * debugger/commands.scm (evaluate, info-args, info-frame,
+ position, up, down): Improve/fix doc strings.
+
+ * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add debugging.
+ (ice9_sources): Add gds-client.scm and gds-server.scm.
+
+ * debugging/Makefile.am, debugging/example-fns.scm,
+ debugging/ice-9-debugger-extensions.scm, debugging/steps.scm,
+ debugging/trace.scm, debugging/traps.scm, debugging/trc.scm: New
+ (merged with modifications from CVS HEAD).
+
+ * gds-client.scm, gds-server.scm: New (merged with modifications
+ from CVS HEAD).
+
+2008-02-22 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
+
+ * match.scm: Export `match:andmap'. This fixes evaluation of
+ expressions like `(match expr (((_ ...) ...) #t))' where a list
+ of lists is to be matched.
+
+2008-01-22 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * COPYING: Removed.
+
+2007-10-02 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
+
+ * slib.scm: Let SLIB's `guile.init' do most of the job. See the
+ `guile-devel@gnu.org' mailing list archive for details.
+
+2007-09-01 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (duplicate-handlers)[warn, warn-override-core]:
+ Send warnings to `stderr' instead of `stdout'.
+
+2007-08-08 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%record-type-check): Renamed to
+ `%record-type-error'.
+ (record-accessor): Directly use `struct-vtable' and
+ `struct-ref', thereby avoiding indirections and procedure-call
+ overhead.
+ (record-modifier): Likewise.
+
+2007-06-13 Ludovic Courtès <ludo@chbouib.org>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): Simplified. No need to
+ check for the value of a same-named imported binding since the
+ newly created variable is systematically assigned afterwards.
+
+2007-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Check (defined? 'SIGBUS) before using that
+ value, there's no such signal on mingw. Reported by Cesar Strauss.
+
+2006-12-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (use-srfis, top-repl): Use process-use-modules, to
+ correctly handle duplicates between the core and other modules, in
+ particular srfi-17 which should replace `car' etc (but didn't).
+
+2006-12-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Remove module-use! of the core `(guile)'
+ module. It's already in `(guile-user)' and the module-use! elevates
+ it making core bindings override those from elsewhere, such as `iota'
+ under a run of "guile --use-srfi=1". Reported by Sven Hartrumpf.
+
+2006-11-13 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Change eval-closure-module call
+ back to procedure-property lookup. (This completes the reversion
+ of the change made on 2005-06-10, which was only partially undone
+ by the change on 2005-08-01.)
+
+2006-10-05 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * ftw.scm (visited?-proc): Use hashv since we know we're getting
+ numbers. Incorporate stat:dev, since stat:ino is only unique within a
+ single device. This fixes a bug where if two files with the same
+ inode on different devices where seen only the first would be returned
+ by ftw (and nftw).
+
+2006-09-23 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (log, log10, exp, sqrt): Remove, now in
+ libguile/numbers.c.
+
+2006-09-07 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * format.scm: Module "(ice-9 threads)" no longer used, now no mutex.
+ (format:parse-float): Fix normalization of leading zeros like "02.5"
+ to "2.5". left-zeros was zeroed before adjusting format:fn-dot,
+ resulting in the latter being unchanged.
+
+2006-08-02 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%record-type-check): New function.
+ (record-accessor, record-modifier): Use it for a strict type check of
+ the given record. Previously an accessor returned #f on a wrong
+ record type, and modifier silently did nothing.
+
+2006-05-28 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * documentation.scm (file-commentary): Move make-regexp into
+ file-commentary so that it's possible to get to the repl prompt when
+ regexps are not available.
+
+2006-05-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * threads.scm (n-par-for-each, n-for-each-par-map): Two more spots
+ where `futures' should become `threads' from Marius' change of
+ 2006-01-29.
+
+2006-03-04 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
+
+ * ice-9/boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Don't call `set-car!' if
+ the autoload interface has already been removed from MODULE's uses.
+ This bug showed up when using a given module both with `autoload' and
+ `use-module'.
+
+2006-02-21 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * format.scm (format:out-dollar): Use format:out-inf-nan per ~f etc.
+
+2006-02-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * deprecated.scm (make-uniform-array): Don't pass the prototype as
+ the fill value, dimensions->uniform-array will do the right thing
+ now. See scm_dimensions_to_uniform_array why we need to be tricky
+ about the fill value.
+
+2006-02-04 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Make sure that module code is
+ loaded with the default reader (current-reader #f). Thanks to
+ Ludovic Courtès for pointing this problem out.
+
+ * stack-catch.scm (stack-catch): Use catch pre-unwind handler
+ instead of lazy-catch.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Use catch pre-unwind handler
+ instead of lazy-catch.
+
+2006-02-01 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
+
+ * deprecated.scm (make-uniform-array): Fill the returned vector with
+ PROT, per guile 1.6 behaviour.
+
+2006-01-30 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * threads.scm (ice-9): Export %thread-handler.
+
+2006-01-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * threads.scm: Replaced 'futures' with threads.
+
+2006-01-13 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): Use value of current-reader fluid to
+ do the read, if set. (Thanks to Ludovic Courtès for the patch.)
+
+2005-12-14 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (load-module): Support an optional custom reader arg,
+ implemented by passing on to r4rs's load.
+
+ * r4rs.scm (load): Support an optional custom reader arg,
+ implemented by passing on to primitive-load.
+
+2005-12-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ From Stephen Compall.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Add srfi-61.
+
+2005-10-27 Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>
+
+ * networking.scm (sockaddr:flowinfo, sockaddr:scopeid): New functions.
+
+2005-09-01 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * debugger/utils.scm: Export write-frame-long.
+
+2005-08-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (set-module-eval-closure!): Undone change from
+ 2005-06-10; with the new weak hashtable semantics, cyclic
+ references are no longer a problem.
+
+2005-07-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * debugger.scm: Remove comments which are now incorrect.
+
+ * debugger/Makefile.am (ice9_debugger_sources): Removed
+ breakpoints.scm, behaviour.scm, trap-hooks.scm.
+ (SUBDIRS): Removed.
+
+ Changes to remove breakpoint support from CVS, as I am now
+ developing this function outside Guile core.
+
+ * debugger/commands.scm (assert-continuable, continue, finish,
+ trace-finish, step, next): Removed.
+
+ * debugger/breakpoints/*: Removed.
+
+ * debugger/breakpoints.scm: Removed.
+
+ * debugger/command-loop.scm: Remove command definitions for
+ continue, finish, trace-finish, step and next.
+
+ * debugger/behaviour.scm: Removed.
+
+ * debugger.scm (debug-stack): Remove GDS related code.
+
+2005-06-10 Han-Wen Nienhuys <hanwen@xs4all.nl>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (set-module-eval-closure!): remove
+ set-procedure-property! closure 'module. Setting this property
+ causes un-gc-able modules.
+
+2005-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (substring-fill!): New, for compatability.
+
+2005-04-23 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (make-list): Moved to C code in list.c
+
+2005-04-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (1+, 1-): Moved to numbers.c.
+
+2005-03-08 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * slib.scm (*features*): Remove 'random, need to use the slib code for
+ that module since guile doesn't provide `random:chunk'.
+
+2005-02-12 Rob Browning <rlb@defaultvalue.org>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): add srfi-55.
+ (require-extension): add require-extension macro for srfi-55.
+
+2005-01-29 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * regex.scm (regexp-quote): Use string-for-each, now that function is
+ in the core.
+
+2005-01-28 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (while): Remove the unquote from do, it breaks with ice-9
+ syncase. Reported by Pach Roman.
+
+2005-01-10 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * arrays.scm, deprecated.scm (uniform-vector-fill!,
+ make-uniform-vector, make-uniform-array, list->uniform-vector):
+ Moved from arrays.scm to deprecated.scm.
+ * arrays.scm, boot-9.scm (array-dimensions): Moved from arrays.scm
+ to boo-9.scm.
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed arrays.scm.
+
+2005-01-02 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * arrays.scm (uniform-vector-fill!, make-uniform-vector,
+ make-uniform-array,list->uniform-array): Deprecated for real.
+
+2004-12-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * arrays.scm (make-array, list->array): Removed.
+ (uniform-vector-fill!): Prepared to be deprecated.
+
+2004-12-22 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (module-make-local-var!): When creating a new
+ variable, initialize it to the value of any imported variable with
+ the given name. This allows code like (define round round) to
+ work as expected.
+
+ From Antoine Mathys <tonigonenstein@users.sourceforge.net>:
+
+ * popen.scm: Support bidirectional communication by making
+ open-pipe support OPEN_BOTH as second argument and in that case
+ return a soft input-output port which uses two pipes internally.
+ Provide open-pipe* to execute programs without using the shell
+ (and actually base open-pipe on it) and the obvious
+ open-input-output-pipe.
+
+2004-12-14 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: (string-any, string-every): Use a scheme wrapper around
+ the C code so for the final call to the predicate procedure is a tail
+ call, per SRFI-13 spec.
+
+2004-12-01 mvo <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (app, %app): Renamed former to the latter.
+ Previously, 'app' was reserved in every module. Now '%app' is
+ reserved, which is slightly better. The real fix is to not use
+ 'local-ref' etc to find modules. Changed all uses.
+ * syncase.scm: Changed 'app' to '%app'.
+
+2004-11-12 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * arrays.scm: Do not use prototypes, use creator functions.
+
+2004-11-10 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * arrays.scm (uniform-vector-read!, uniform-vector-write):
+ Removed.
+
+2004-11-05 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Do not add "." to %load-path. 'load' will still be
+ able to load files in the current directory, but 'use-modules' etc
+ will not.
+
+2004-10-29 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * arrays.scm: Do not install read-hash procedure for reading
+ arrays, this is done in libguile now.
+
+2004-10-27 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * arrays.scm (uniform-vector?, uniform-vector-set!): Removed, now
+ provided by libguile.
+
+2004-10-26 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Added srfi-4 to cond-expand features.
+
+2004-10-18 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * format.scm (format:obj->str): Simplified considerably by using
+ object->string or display instead of implementing our own printer.
+ Handle format:read-proof here. Unreadable objects are recognized
+ by their "#<" prefix instead of by being unknown to the custom
+ printer (which would treat keywords as unprintable, for example).
+ (format:iobj->str): Removed.
+
+2004-10-04 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (symbol->keyword, keyword->symbol): Removed, they are
+ now implemented in C.
+
+2004-09-26 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * optargs.scm (let-optional-template, let-keywords-template): Change
+ "(begin body)" to "(let () body)" for empty bindings, since the former
+ allows "internal defines" in body leak out to the surrounding
+ environment.
+
+2004-09-23 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Pass rest argument to
+ display-backtrace for wrong-type-arg and out-of-range errors so
+ that the bad value gets highlighted.
+
+2004-09-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * streams.scm (stream-for-each-many): Correction, should recurse into
+ itself, not stream-for-each-one.
+
+ * time.scm (time-proc): Make result inexact, since format ~f doesn't
+ support fractions currently.
+
+2004-09-08 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (expt): Only call integer-expt for an exact integer
+ exponent, not for an inexact integer one. Also, let integer-expt
+ handle negative exponents instead of doing it here.
+
+2004-09-02 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * format.scm (format:out): Ignore excess arguments, per common lisp.
+
+ * format.scm (format:out-num-padded): Print "+" on 0 under @ modifier.
+
+2004-08-27 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * regex.scm (regexp-quote): [ and | must be quoted. Quote ( ) { + ?
+ using char class [(] etc since \( in fact makes them become special in
+ regexp/basic.
+
+2004-08-25 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * and-let-star.scm (and-let*): Give #t for an empty body, per srfi-2
+ spec, previously came out as an empty (begin).
+
+2004-08-25 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Added srfi-13 and srfi-14.
+
+2004-08-20 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * debugger/utils.scm (display-source): Use unmemoize-expr instead
+ of unmemoize.
+ (write-frame-short/expression): Likewise.
+
+2004-08-18 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * and-let-star.scm: Add cond-expand-provide srfi-2, since this module
+ provides that feature.
+ * receive.scm: Add cond-expand-provide srfi-8, since this module
+ provides that feature.
+
+2004-08-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ From Matthias Koeppe. Thanks!
+
+ * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): In the local procedure `wr', use
+ object->string to print all data (except for the reader macros),
+ rather than implementing an own printer. The user-visible
+ difference is that procedures and control characters like #\tab
+ are now printed in the same way as by `write'.
+
+2004-08-09 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * slib.scm (*features*): Remove array and array-for-each, core
+ definitions are insufficient for latest slib.
+ (t, nil): New constants slib says are supposed to exist.
+ (call-with-open-ports, browse-url): New functions for latest slib.
+ Implementations taken from Template.scm (public domain).
+ (open-file): Extend core definition to accept symbols for the mode,
+ required by latest slib.
+ (delete-file): Replace core definition with version returning #t/#f as
+ per slib spec.
+ (system): Mark as #:replace to suppress override warning, use new
+ style "(@ (guile) system)" to call core function.
+
+2004-05-25 Matthias Koeppe <mkoeppe@mail.math.uni-magdeburg.de>
+
+ * format.scm: Remove the arbitrary limit of 100 iterations for the
+ ~{...~} control structure.
+
+2004-07-10 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * and-let-star.scm (and-let*): Remove unused variable "val".
+ * pretty-print.scm (read-macro-prefix): Remove unused variable "tail".
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%cond-expand-features): Add srfi-6 which is in the core.
+
+ * safe-r5rs.scm (re-export): Uncomment numerator, denominator,
+ rationalize, since they now exist.
+
+2004-07-05 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * slib.scm (system): Correction to redefinition, now guile is stricter
+ about when a define binding comes into existance.
+
+2004-05-29 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Reordered definitions such that macro definitions
+ preceed their first usage. Include and define deprecated stuff
+ late in the file to have a better change of detecting accidental
+ uses of deprecated definitions. Further, unified the layout a
+ little and grouped definitions more cleanly into topics.
+
+2004-05-24 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * history.scm (use-value-history): Use resolve-interface instead
+ of resolve-module so that only the exported bindings are searched.
+ (save-value-history): Export the newly defined variable. Reported
+ by Wolfgang Jaehrling.
+
+2004-05-04 Dirk Herrmann <dirk@dirk-herrmanns-seiten.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): Always start searching from the
+ root module. This will allow the C equivalent scm_resolve_module
+ to work, independent of what the current module is.
+
+2004-02-18 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Make the (guile-user) module use the
+ (ice-9 r5rs) module.
+
+2004-02-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (module-map): Renamed hash-map -> hash-map->list.
+
+2004-02-09 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * debugger/trap-hooks.scm (debug-hook-membership): New, exported.
+
+ * debugger/commands.scm (debug-trap-hooks): New, exported.
+
+2004-02-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <djurfeldt@nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debugger/breakpoints/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES),
+ debugger/Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES), Makefile.am (TAGS_FILES): Use
+ this variable instead of ETAGS_ARGS so that TAGS can be built
+ using separate build directory.
+
+2004-01-20 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Back out 2003-11-19 change to
+ lazy-handler-dispatch lookup.
+
+2004-01-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * mapping.scm: Use '#:' prefix for keywords instead of ':'.
+ Thanks to Richard Todd!
+
+2004-01-11 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * slib.scm (system): New function, giving an exit code return in
+ accordance with slib spec.
+
+ Revert this, it breaks test-suite/tests/r5rs_pitfalls.test where
+ false-if-exception is used within syntax-rules. (Suspect syntax-rules
+ ought to support this sort of thing, but it doesn't right now.)
+ * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
+ to depend on expansion environment.
+
+2004-01-07 Marius Vollmer <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): Use with-fluid* when only one fluid is
+ being set.
+
+2004-01-07 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * q.scm (q-pop!): Should be "null?" not "not" for end-of-list.
+ Reported by Richard Todd.
+
+2004-01-04 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (false-if-exception): Unquote catch and lambda, so as not
+ to depend on expansion environment.
+
+ * slib.scm (-1+, <?, <=?, =?, >?, >=?): Define as aliases for 1-, <,
+ <=, =, >, >= respectively, required by slib 'rev2-procedures but no
+ longer in the guile core.
+
+2003-11-19 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Defer lookup of
+ lazy-handler-dispatch.
+
+2003-11-17 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (@, @@): New macros.
+
+2003-11-16 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Started comment about module system workings.
+
+2003-11-11 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * debugger.scm: Change ui-* calls to gds-*.
+ (debug-on-error): Debug if throw key is in specified syms, not if
+ it isn't! Also throw 'abort after debugging, so as to skip the
+ REPL's backtrace.
+
+ * debugger/behaviour.scm (*trap*): New variable, stores trap type.
+ (before-enter-frame-hook, before-apply-frame-hook,
+ before-exit-frame-hook): Set here.
+ (debug-if-flag-set): Passed into flags on debug-stack call.
+ (at-step, at-next): Changed to debug at frame exit points as well.
+
+ * debugger/utils.scm: Big comment added.
+
+2003-10-30 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * debugger/ui-client.scm: Moved to ../emacs/gds-client.scm.
+
+2003-10-16 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
+
+ * debugger/ui-client.scm (ui-connect): Add arg to say whether to
+ debug immediately on connection.
+ (ui-eval): Handle exceptions during read and evaluation.
+
+ * debugger.scm (debug-on-error, default-default-lazy-handler):
+ Remove an unnecessary level of indirection in calling lazy
+ handler.
+
+2003-10-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>

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

+
+2003-09-25 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>

+ reentrant. No mutex is necessary. Thanks to Clinton Ebadi!
+
+2003-09-13 Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (file-exists?): Use stat rather than access?, so as to
+ follow the effective UID/GID not the real ID. file-exists? is
+ normally used as a prelude to opening or some other operation, and
+ it's the effective ID which will apply there. Emacs file-exists-p
+ uses stat, presumably for the the same reason.
+
+2003-09-12 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Use a proper hashtable as
+ the obarray, not an empty vector.
+ (make-module): Always construct a hashtable for the obarray, even
+ for empty ones.

+ arguments to hashx-get-handle. Thanks to Kevin Ryde!
+
+ * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port) Pass 0 as second

+ rdelim) module. See below.
+
+2001-06-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: use the (ice-9 rdelim) module if
+ include-deprecated-features is true.
+
+2001-06-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * pretty-print.scm (generic-write): Use `object->string' to print

+
+2001-06-05 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-local-variable!): Renamed from
+ `module-ensure-variable!'. Make sure that there really is a local
+ variable, not just a visible one.
+ (module-ensure-variable!): See above.
+ (module-export!): Behave like always when deprecated features are
+ enabled, but issue a warning when re-exporting a variable. When
+ deprecated features are disabled, only export local variables,
+ creating them uninitialized when they don't yet exist.
+ (module-re-export!): New. Use this for re-exporting imported
+ variables.
+ (re-export): New, to go with `module-re-export!'.
+
+ * format.scm: Added kluge at top that keeps `export' from
+ re-exporting the `format' variable of the `(guile)' module.
+
+2001-06-04 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (named-module-use!, top-repl): Use resolve-interface

+
+2001-06-03 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): Bracket calls to try-module-linked

+
+ * session.scm (apropos-fold, submodules, apropos): Be careful not
+ to access unbound variables.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (module-ensure-variable!): New.
+ (module-export!): Use it to ensure that there is a variable to
+ export. Previously, we would always create a new variable, copy
+ the value over, and export the new variable. This confused
+ syncase since it keys important properties on variables.
+
+2001-06-01 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Revert part of the 2001-05-19 change.

+ set-current-module.
+ (define-module): Do it here, in the expansion.
+ (top-repl): Do not define '(guile-user)' module and conditionally
+ load `(ice-9 threads)' and/or `(ice-9 regex)' here. Do it on
+ top-level as the last thing in boot-9.scm instead.
+ (%load-path): Use `list' instead of `cons' to create a single
+ element list when adding "." to it.
+ (process-define-module, process-use-modules, module-export!): Add
+ dummy definitions prior to booting the mdule system.

+ `variable-set-name-hint!' instead.
+ (make-modules-in, beautify-user-module, resolve-module): Moved
+ towards the beginning of boot-9.scm, across the call to
+ set-current-module that boots the module system. These
+ definitions need to be visible at the time of the first
+ `set-current-module' call.
+ (try-module-autoload): Define a `#f' before the call to
+ set-current-module. It is redefined later.
+
+ * debug.scm: Use `module-set!' instead of `variable-set!' to set
+ insert `debug-options' into the-root-module.

+ closure.
+
+2000-05-14 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): rewritten. first work out the home
+ directory and then try to open the file (previously it could try
+ to open a file in more than one place). catch exceptions when
+ trying to get a directory from the user database. don't check
+ that ~/.guile is not a directory before trying to load it (a lack
+ of ~/.guile is not a crime, but if the file is not valid for any
+ reason then primitive-load will raise an error).
+
+2000-05-11 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (abs): Don't set to magnitude. abs now does not
+ accept complex numbers as parameter.
+
+2000-05-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * common-list.scm (delete-if-not!): Bug fix of bug fix: change
+ label of named let to `delete-if-not'. Sorry.
+
+2000-05-08 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * common-list.scm (doc fixes): Talk about `true values' instead of
+ `#t' when a function treats all non-#f valuers the same.
+ (remove-if-not): Bug fix: call remove-if-not
+ instead of remove-if when iterating.
+ (delete-if-not!): Bug fix: call delete-if-not! instead of
+ delete-if! when iterating.
+
+2000-04-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * r4rs.scm (close-input-port, close-output-port): Removed.
+
+2000-04-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * session.scm (help): New macro. Prints helpful information.
+
+2000-04-10 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
+
+ * popen.scm (open-process): after forking, close all ports except
+ the end of the pipe to the parent. otherwise move->fdes and
+ the exec'd program and the exit handlers can interfere with file
+ descriptors still in use in parent ports.
+
+2000-04-09 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
+
+ * popen.scm (close-process-quietly): new procedure. use it from
+ reap-pipes to avoid errors or hanging during background cleanup.
+
+2000-04-04 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * format.scm (format:obj->str): Handle circular references. Also,
+ print improper lists with (x y . z) syntax rather than as
+ individual pairs. (This code should probably be integrated into C
+ level facilities. It is currently terribly slow.)
+
+2000-04-03 Michael Livshin <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
+
+ * streams.scm (stream-fold, stream-for-each): don't use named let,
+ because it prevents the gc from junking the stream argument.
+
+Thu Mar 9 08:05:08 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * slib.scm: Back-out change to software-type -- renamed
+ slib:software-type to software-type, and leave it non-public.
+
+Thu Mar 2 12:20:52 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Drop unused definition of sfx function -- thanks
+ Dirk Hermann!
+
+Wed Mar 1 12:21:02 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * streams.scm: Doc patch from Richard Kim, using MIT Scheme as
+ source of the numerous very short changes.
+
+Sun Feb 13 18:03:19 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * slib.scm: Rename software-type to slib:software-type and make it
+ public.
+
+ * r4rs.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted from R4RS
+ info pages.
+
+Sun Feb 13 17:49:29 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * common-list.scm: Added documentation; largely cut and pasted
+ from slib docs.
+
+2000-02-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * format.scm (format): Reintroduce (define format format:format)
+ so that the binding in the public interface of the module will be OK.
+
+2000-01-30 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): pass strings, not symbols,
+ to string-append.
+
+2000-01-29 Gary Houston <ghouston@arglist.com>
+
+ * expect.scm (expect): don't call char-ready? before expect-select,
+ since select now checks port buffers itself. don't bother to check
+ the time first either, since expect-select does it.
+
+Thu Jan 20 12:57:36 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * format.scm: Use (variable-set! (builtin-variable 'format)) to
+ re-define format to be format:format (instead of just define,
+ which interacts poorly with the module system). Thanks to Shuji
+ Narazaki for this change.
+
+Tue Jan 11 10:49:22 2000 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * boot-9.scm expect.scm, syncase.scm: Switch to new style
+ `simple-format' message strings: substitute ~A for %s, and ~S for
+ %S.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Added (define format simple-format) to expose that
+ primitive via the simpler name until format.scm is loaded.
+
+2000-01-09 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Do not bother to look
+ inside libtool ".la" file, dynamic-link does this for us now.
+
+1999-12-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
+
+ * slib.scm (library-vicinity, home-vicinity,
+ scheme-implementation-type, scheme-implemenation-version):
+ use define-public to export from the module.
+
+Wed Dec 15 08:32:09 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * doc.scm: Use `%library-dir' and the other system directories,
+ not the quickly defuncted `library-dir' that I added before
+ realizing the former existed. Thanks Brad Knotwell!
+
+Sun Dec 12 19:18:52 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.am, doc.scm: Added doc.scm.
+
+1999-12-12 18:54:06 1999 Greg J. Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>
+
+ * popen.scm, slib.scm: Added some docstrings for procedures that
+ were primitives that I encountered in posix.texi.
+
+1999-11-19 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
+
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add arrays.scm.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: load arrays.scm if 'array is provided.
+
+ * arrays.scm: new file with stuff from boot-9.scm.
+
+1999-11-18 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (read-hash-extend to set up arrays): add 'l' for
+ long_long uniform vectors.
+
+1999-11-17 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
+
+ * networking.scm (sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent, setservent):
+ take an optional argument STAYOPEN. default is #f.
+
+1999-10-05 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Deleted from CVS repository. Run the autogen.sh
+ script to create generated files like this one.
+
+1999-09-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@freewire.co.uk>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (load-user-init): check that the posix feature is
+ available before using getpw and getuid.
+ (top-repl): don't install handlers for SIGINT etc., without posix.
+ (file-is-directory?): use 'posix instead of i/o-extensions to
+ check for stat.
+ (load-user-init): use file-exists? and file-is-directory? to
+ check for .guile, instead of stat.
+ (file-is-directory?): don't display the file name if posix not
+ available.
+ (feature?): I guess this is deprecated. redefined using "provided?"
+ and changed users in boot-9.scm to "provided?".
+ Conditionally load posix.scm and networking.scm.
+
+ posix.scm, networking.scm: new files. Move definitions from
+ boot-9.scm if they are only useful with posix/networking available.
+
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): add posix.scm, networking.scm.
+
+1999-09-17 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debugger.scm (read-and-dispatch-commands): Handle other throws
+ than 'exit-debugger.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (before-signal-stack): New fluid.
+ (top-repl): Set before-signal-stack in the signal handler.
+
+ * debugger.scm (eval-handler): Handle unhandled exceptions.
+
+1999-09-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debugger.scm ("p"): New alias for "evaluate";
+ Mark module with :no-backtrace.
+ ("position"): New command.
+ (source-position, display-position): New procedures.
+ (display-source): Display position of expression, if available.
+ (catch-user-errors): Return #f on error. (Commands are expected

+ (read-and-dispatch-command): Bugfix: Return old state on error.
+
+1999-09-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Handle the end of the
+ match list and an empty match list identically. (Thanks to Greg
+ Badros.)
+
+1999-09-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
+ `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.
+
+1999-09-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Newline after no env announcement.
+
+ * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Updated copyright notices.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (make-autoload-interface): Bugfix.
+ (top-repl): Autoload debugger.
+
+ * debugger.scm ("backtrace"): Don't pass length param to
+ display-backtrace if it wasn't explicitly given by the user.
+ (write-frame-long/application): Also print corresponding source
+ expression.
+ ("evaluate"): Evaluate in local environment frame, if existent;
+ Handle errors.
+
+1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * format.scm (format:format-work): Use #\tab and #\page instead of
+ slib:form-feed and slib:tab. (Thanks to Ceri Storey.)
+
+ * format.scm (format:abort): Call error, not slib:error.
+
+1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (using-readline?): New procedure: Returns #t if
+ readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
+ (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
+ this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
+
+ * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
+ argument.
+
+ * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
+ both forward and backward views of the stack
+ (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
+ Use selector `frame-number';
+ (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
+ ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
+ Use (ice-9 debug).
+ Use readline conditionally.
+
+1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
+ (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
+ list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
+
+ * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
+ the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
+ Jan Nieuwenhuizen.)
+
+1999-09-11 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * readline.scm: Moved to ../guile-readline.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Removed code for activating readline.
+
+ * Makefile.am: Removed mention of readline.scm.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+1999-09-11 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
+ with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
+ false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
+ for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
+ directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
+ architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
+ don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
+ * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
+ libguile-config-stamp.
+ * version.scm.in: Delete.
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
+ (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
+ (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerate.
+
+1999-09-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
+ written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
+ included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
+ session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
+ top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
+ what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
+ readline.
+
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
+
+1999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (try-module-autoload): Use %search-load-path.
+
+1999-08-24 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Removed old style hooks.
+ (inherit-print-state): Rwwritten to use port-with-print-state.
+
+1999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
+
+ Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
+ * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
+ read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
+ Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
+ objects starting with '#/'.
+
+1999-08-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@thalamus.nada.kth.se>
+
+ GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
+ system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
+ * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
+ module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
+ set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
+ (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
+ `observer-id'.
+ (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
+ module-modified): New procedures.
+ (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
+ module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.
+
+1999-07-29 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Correct non-RnRS usage of internal
+ defines.
+
+1999-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * streams.scm: New module, contributed by Michael Livshin.
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): List it.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (read-delimited!): Put the terminator in the correct
+ position.
+
+1999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
+ at multiple calls to read.
+ (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
+ (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
+ (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
+ continued-lines prompt.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
+ reading expressions.
+
+1999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
+ `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
+
+1999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
+ split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
+ Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
+
+ 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
+
+ * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
+ that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
+
+ * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
+ of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
+ expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
+ * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
+ * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
+ instead of a port.
+
+1999-06-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+ Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
+
+ * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
+ know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
+ unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
+ (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
+
+ Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
+
+ 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
+
+ * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
+ and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
+ collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
+ an alist.
+
+ 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
+
+ * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
+ (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
+ the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
+ disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
+ from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
+ (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
+ flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
+ automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
+ is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
+ (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
+ flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
+
+ 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
+
+ * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
+ peeked from the stream.
+ (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
+ (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
+ to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
+
+ 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
+ (error-catching-loop): likewise.
+
+ 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
+ consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
+ exiting repl with single control-D.
+
+ 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
+ error catching loop after quit received.
+ (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
+ primitive exit if non-interactive.
+ force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
+ * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
+ boot-9.scm.
+ * popen.scm: new file.
+
+1999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (iota): replaced by a tail recursive version.
+ (reverse-iota): removed.
+
+1999-06-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * optargs.scm (lambda*): Bugfix: Replaced ARGLIST -->
+ non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)
+
+1999-05-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
+ (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+ * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
+
+1999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
+
+ * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+ * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
+ Guile's module system.
+
+ * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
+ changes:
+ (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
+ a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
+ list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
+ error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
+ clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
+ (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
+ modern CL behavior.
+ (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
+ '() when the condition is false.
+
+1999-04-17 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+1999-04-08 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Provide 'values.
+
+1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
+ :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
+ (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
+
+1999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
+ argument order for hash-fold.
+
+1999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
+ resolve-module.
+ (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
+ deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
+
+ This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
+ load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
+ actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
+ has been added to the load path).
+
+ Use try-load-module.
+
+1999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
+ module between system and user state.
+
+1999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
+
+ * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
+ definition.
+
+1999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
+ associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
+ system can create a wrapper class for it.
+
+1999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
+ specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
+ by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
+ recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
+ stack frame encountered.
+
+ This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
+ `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
+ any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
+ on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
+ list).]
+
+ Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
+ that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
+ spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
+ system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
+ please tell me!]
+
+ System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
+ define-module switches:
+
+ (define-module (foo)
+ :no-backtrace)
+
+ Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
+ modules.
+
+ A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
+ associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
+ from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
+ module it is a system frame.
+
+ Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
+ away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
+ stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
+ user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
+ encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
+
+ In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
+ frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
+ following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
+ over application frames where the operator is marked by the
+ `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
+ generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
+
+ * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
+ status of a module.;
+ Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
+ (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
+ (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
+ closure to the module.
+
+ * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.
+
+1999-03-03 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * slib.scm (make-random-state): Added for compatibility.
+
+1999-02-16 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
+
+ * optargs.scm (lambda*): Handle empty argument lists properly.
+
+1999-02-15 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ Fix from Russ McManus:
+ * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
+ value-required? field for options that take optional values.
+ (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
+ either an optional or required value.
+
+1999-02-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
+
+ * getopt-long.scm: Remove debugging calls to `pk'.
+
+ * getopt-long.scm: Return list of ordinary arguments as the value
+ of the '() key, not `rest'.
+
+ A new argument-processing package from Russ McManus.
+ * getopt-long.scm: New file.
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added getopt-long.scm.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+1999-02-09 Maciej Stachowiak <mstachow@alum.mit.edu>
+
+ * optargs.scm: New file.
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add optargs.scm here. Makefile.in
+ not regenerated because I don't have the right version of Automake.
+
+1999-02-06 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * and-let*.scm: New file, from Michael Livshin.
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add and-let* here.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+1999-01-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * slib.scm (install-require-module): Fixed the kludge which loads
+ the slib catalog: Doesn't anylonger assume that the feature tested
+ for isn't loaded.
+
+1998-12-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+1998-12-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Reverted the change of
+ 1998-11-23 which caused loading of object code if :use-module was
+ applied to the module itself.
+
+1998-12-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * Makefile.am: Removed setf.scm.
+
+ * setf.scm: Removed. 1. It was buggy. 2. It was unschemey.
+ (These shortcomings were my fault.)
+
+1998-12-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (environment-module): New procedure.
+
+1998-12-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * Makefile.am: Added setf.scm.
+
+1998-12-05 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
+
+ * setf.scm: New file. Adds the new forms `setf!' and `setter'
+ which implements generalized references a la Common LISP.
+
+1998-12-02 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
+ :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
+ The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
+ MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
+ among BINDINGS is referenced.
+ (make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
+ for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
+
+1998-12-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (*suppress-old-style-hook-warning*): Set this to #t
+ if you don't want the old style hook warnings.
+
+1998-12-01 Christian Lynbech <chl@tbit.dk>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (try-using-libtool-name): Fix check on dlname to make
+ sure that it isn't empty, as it is when we are only buidling
+ static libraries.
+
+1998-11-27 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * session.scm (arity): New procedure.
+
+1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Use run-hook instead of run-hooks everywhere.
+
+1998-11-26 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (run-hooks, add-hook!, remove-hook!): Added temporary
+ code for backward compatibility until people have had time to
+ adapt to the new hooks.
+
+1998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
+ interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
+ beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
+ code.
+ (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
+ well if a module does :use-module on itself.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
+ invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
+ been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
+ (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
+ registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
+ function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
+ argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
+ (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
+ first to register linked modules.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
+ registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
+ invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
+ (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
+ before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
+ after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
+ to use from C:
+ (make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
+ libguile/feature.c.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
+ libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
+ make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
+
+1998-11-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (the-environment): New special form: Returns an
+ object representing the current local evaluation environment.
+ This object can be used in `local-eval' and `defined?'.
+
+1998-11-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (collect): New syntax. Similar to begin but returns
+ a list of the results of all forms in the sequence instead of the
+ result of the last form.
+
+1998-11-10 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved here from
+ syncase.scm.
+
+ * syncase.scm (values, call-with-values): Moved to boot-9.scm.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (readline-options, readline-enable, readline.disable,
+ readline-set!: New options interface.
+
+ * readline.scm (readline-port): Use readline-options-interface.
+
+1998-11-05 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Set the repl start module in `top-repl' instead of
+ at the end of boot-9.scm.
+
+1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * emacs.scm (format): Bugfix: Handle multiple arguments
+ correctly. (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
+
+1998-11-01 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (exit-hook): New hook: Is run at the very end of an
+ interactive session.
+ (top-repl): Run exit-hook on exit.
+
+ * readline.scm (readline-port): Maybe read history; Maybe write
+ history at exit (add to exit-hook).
+
+Fri Oct 30 15:15:37 1998 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Bugfixed last change...
+
+1998-10-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Don't set prompt to "... " if
+ read line was empty.
+
+1998-10-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, expect.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm,
+ r4rs.scm, slib.scm, threads.scm: Update copyright years.
+
+ * getopt-gnu-style.scm, slib.scm: Add copyright notice.
+
+ Talked to Stallman. Actually, the syntax-case copyright is no
+ problem. Duh.
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Revert last change.
+ * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Added again.
+ * Makefile.in: Regeneretade.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Don't assume that this file is loaded just before
+ entering a read-eval-print loop. Turn code to load (ice-9 emacs)
+ into...
+ (load-emacs-interface): New function.
+ (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
+ At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
+
+ We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
+ core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
+ assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
+ separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.
+ * syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, psyntax.ss: Removed.
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Removed syncase.scm, psyntax.pp, and
+ psyntax.ss.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add getopt-gnu-style.scm.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+1998-10-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Added extended read syntax for byte vectors #y(...)
+ and short vectors #h(...).
+
+1998-10-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * calling.scm (excursion-function-syntax): Use a sequence of
+ set!'s, not a single multi-variable set!; we removed support for
+ that syntax a long time ago. (Thanks to Shuji Narazaki.)
+
+1998-10-12 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * r4rs.scm (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH): Don't bother
+ testing software-type here. That's the least of our Windows
+ porting issues, and it's done wrong anyway.
+
+1998-10-09 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation-warning): New function:
+ print a warning the first time we see `#/' notation.
+
+ * q.scm (sync-q!, q?, q-remove!, q-push!, enq!): Lots of bugs, and
+ (eq? #f '()) assumptions. Make functions that aren't documented
+ to return anything else return the queue itself. (Bug report from
+ Michael Livshin --- thanks!)
+
+1998-08-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Removed re-enabling of
+ trace flag.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (make-options): Bugfix: Changed pair? --> list? in
+ order to allow the empty list as arg.
+ (error-catching-loop): Use `with-traps' to create a dynamic
+ context with traps enabled.
+
+1998-08-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Removed (ice-9 regex) from use-list of (guile)
+ module.
+ (try-using-libtool-name): Removed dependency on (ice-9 regex).
+
+1998-08-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
+ available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
+ currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
+ 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
+ module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.
+
+1998-07-29 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated using the last public version of
+ automake, not the hacked Cygnus version.
+
+1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated, after removing Totoro kludge.
+
+1998-07-28 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
+
+ * getopt-gnu-style.scm: New file. (Thanks to Russ McManus.)
+
+1998-07-26 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * Makefile.in Rebuilt, for config changes in parent dir.
+
+1998-07-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * readline.scm (make-readline-port): Set prompt string to "... "
+ after first read line. (Thanks to Richard Polton.)
+
+1998-07-19 Jim Blandy <jimb@zwingli.cygnus.com>
+
+ * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Don't use
+ ungetc-char-ready?, since we don't provide that function any
+ more. The unread-string function doesn't interact properly with
+ any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew
+ Archibald.)
+
+ * hcons.scm (hashq-cons-assoc): Don't assume the empty list is
+ false. Return false when we cannot find a matching entry in the
+ list. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald.)
+
+1998-07-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
+ bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
+ the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
+ should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
+ `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
+ but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.
+ (Thanks to Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
+
+1998-07-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Renamed module `(guile-repl)' --> `(guile-user)'.
+
+1998-07-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
+ of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
+ suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
+ substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
+ module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
+ affect the internal operation of Guile itself.
+
+1998-06-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (load-module): When loading files from within files
+ themselves being loaded: Use the directory path of the file being
+ loaded as root for relative filenames. (After suggestion by
+ Steven G. Johnson.)
+
+1998-06-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * emacs.scm (emacs-load): New feature: Eval in specified module.
+
+1998-06-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * readline.scm: Typo in regex module name.
+
+1998-06-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): regexp-quote text to
+ be completed.
+
+1998-06-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debug.scm, emacs.scm: Bugfix: Treat `the-last-stack' as a fluid.
+
+1998-06-09 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Check that (current-input-port) is a tty before
+ enabling readline. (Thanks to Michael N. Livshin.)
+
+1998-06-07 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (use-syntax): Turned into a macro inorder to be
+ similar in use to `use-modules'.
+ Example: (use-syntax (ice-9 syncase)) will 1. load the module
+ (ice-9 syncase), and, 2. install the procedure `syncase' as eval
+ transformer.
+ (internal-use-syntax): New procedure.
+ (process-define-module): Use `internal-use-syntax'.
+
+1998-05-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add emacs.scm.
+
+1998-05-13 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * readline.scm: Use the new readline facilities: Add the
+ possibility to control input and output ports; Add apropos
+ completion.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Antirevert Jim's readline code which he reverted
+ 19971027 and adapt it to the current readline interface.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Only enable readline if not using the
+ Emacs interface; Only use repl prompt when using the readline port
+ from repl-read. (We don't want to see it when calling `read'.)
+
+ * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): Parenthesis bug.
+
+1998-05-11 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Load readline module if readline is present.
+
+ * readline.scm (apropos-completion-function): New procedure:
+ Symbolic completion. (Thanks to Andrew Archibald!)
+
+1998-04-22 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added keyword use-syntax.
+
+1998-04-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * nonblocking.scm: Removed. libguile is now inherently
+ nonblocking through the use of scm_internal_select.
+
+ * emacs.scm: Removed use of nonblocking.scm.
+
+ * gwish.scm, gtcl.scm: Removed. tcltk.scm has made these
+ obsolete.
+
+1998-04-15 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
+
+ * runq.scm (runq-control): Corrected spelling of enqueue!.
+ (Thanks to Karl M. Hegbloom.)
+
+1998-03-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Added new run-time option interface eval-options.
+
+1998-03-28 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (remove-hook!): New macro. (Thanks to Maciej
+ Stachowiak.)
+
+1998-01-30 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
+ (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
+ important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
+ Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
+ (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
+ threads.
+
+1998-01-01 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
+
+ A better fix to the SLIB identity problem -- thanks to Marius Vollmer.
+ * slib.scm (identity): Unmake public.
+ (slib:eval): Evaluate inside `slib-module'.
+
+1997-12-24 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Doc fix.
+
+ * slib.scm (identity): Made public.
+ (home-vicinity): New function (from SLIB/Template.scm).
+
+1997-12-13 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
+ improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
+ hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
+ changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
+ behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
+ end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
+ like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
+ to go here.
+
+Sat Nov 29 01:24:46 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, save-stack): `the-last-stack'
+ is now a fluid.
+
+1997-11-28 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (find-and-link-dynamic-module): If a module directory
+ contains a .la file (a libtool support file), attempt to extract
+ the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
+ exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled
+ modules should load more cleanly in Guile now.
+ (try-using-libtool-name, try-using-sharlib-name): New functions.
+
+Sun Nov 9 06:10:59 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): initialize more
+ usefully so they will work from a script.
+
+1997-10-31 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): Moved definition to the
+ neighborhood of the record code.
+
+Mon Oct 27 02:05:49 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
+ out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
+ support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
+ worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.
+
+Sat Oct 25 14:23:22 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am: Include readline.scm in the list of files to be
+ installed, so Guile can find it for interactive use.
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
+
+Thu Oct 23 01:00:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
+
+ Add support for readline function.
+ * readline.scm: New module.
+ * boot-9.scm (repl-reader): New function.
+ (scm-style-repl): Call repl-reader, instead of doing the reading
+ ourselves. Remove repl-report-reset; it was never used for
+ anything.
+ (top-repl): If we've got the readline primitives, then redefine
+ repl-reader to use them.
+ If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.
+
+ * ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
+
+Wed Oct 22 18:26:57 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>
+
+ * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
+ string-fun.scm: Added copyright notices; reformatted.
+
+Thu Oct 9 05:44:00 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * expect.scm: (expect-regexec): new procedure, use it in
+ expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
+ (top): include regex module in define-module statement.
+
+Wed Oct 8 03:16:01 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * (error-catching-loop): new local variable "interactive". if
+ #f, abort terminates the process.
+ (set-batch-mode?!, batch-mode?): new closures, defined in
+ error-catching-loop. the names are from scsh.
+
+1997-10-06 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (inherit-print-state): If NEW-PORT contains a
+ print-state, throw it away.
+
+Fri Oct 3 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
+ `0'.
+
+Thu Oct 2 12:00:00 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,

+ (record-type-vtable, make-record-type): Don't use make-struct-printer.
+ (record-type-vtable): User fields "prpr" (printer is no longer a
+ user field).

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

+
+Mon Sep 29 03:21:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * slib.scm (slib:load): slib:load first tries to load the file
+ named NAME, then NAME.scm. On error, report the error occuring at
+ the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into
+ the make-options macro so that we needn't refer to a global
+ symbol.
+
+Sun Sep 28 21:40:24 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debug.scm: Moved options interface procedures to boot-9.scm.

+ continuation function, RET, as advertised: with each separated
+ field a separate argument.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Regenerated with automake 1.2a.
+

+ <mstachow@mit.edu>. Thanks!
+ (try-module-linked): Try to find module among those already
+ registered.
+ (try-module-dynamic-link): Removed the first test which
+ corresponds to a call to `try-module-linked'.

+ registered modules (for example those which have been statically
+ linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
+ link a .so-file.
+
+Mon Sep 15 23:39:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

+
+ * boot-9.scm (primitive-macro?): New procedure.
+
+ * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
+ the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9
+ syncase) has been loaded. This is necessary to get correct
+ expansion inside the slib module.
+
+ * psyntax.ss (build-let, build-named-let): New output

+ variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9 slib) has
+ been loaded.

+
+Fri Sep 5 03:09:09 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Added new parameter `module'.
+
+ * syncase.scm (putprop, getprop): Modified to use the object
+ properties of the variable object corresponding to the symbol;
+ This way we can ride on the mechanisms of the module system.
+ Changed `builtin-variable' calls to `define-public' calls.
+ Setup the hooks sc-expand and sc-interface.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (sc-interface, sc-expand): New builtin variables.

+ the syncase interface.
+
+Thu Sep 4 14:57:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * syncase.scm (putprop): Temporary fix which publishes new syntax
+ globally (the old behaviour was complex and connected to the inner
+ workings of the current module system).
+
+Wed Sep 3 21:29:13 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * psyntax.ss: Updated.
+ psyntax.pp: Bugfix: Previous version had some leading "t":s cut
+ off!
+
+Tue Sep 2 00:26:42 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (gensym): Removed (replaced by primitive).
+ (obarray-gensym): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
+ (gentemp): Rewritten to use `gensym'.
+
+Mon Sep 1 20:08:32 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * gtcl.scm (make-tcl-binder): Rewritten to choose bindings
+ according to the following priorities:
+ 1. tcl bindings which are present in override-scheme-list
+ 2. bindings from the-scm-module
+ 3. tcl bindings
+ This way the gtcl module can occur first in the use-list without
+ disabling the scheme interpreter.
+ (new-interpreter): New function.
+
+ * gwish.scm: Moved initialization code for the-interpreter to
+ gtcl.scm; Moved name space cleaning code to gtcl.scm and rewrote
+ it; Call `new-interpreter'; Don't :use-module (guile).
+
+Thu Aug 28 23:48:53 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>

+
+Wed Aug 27 11:35:09 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.red-bean.com>

+
+ * session.scm (apropos-internal): Musn't initialize symbol
+ accumulator with a constant pair. That led to mutation of the
+ source!

+
+ * session.scm (vector-for-each): Removed.
+ (apropos): vector-for-each --> array-for-each.
+ (apropos-internal): New function. Return list of accessible
+ symbols matching regexp.

+ in stack-ref).
+

+
+Tue Aug 19 02:39:41 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * syncase.scm: Don't tamper with debug mode setting when enabling

+ primitive-load-path so that backtraces get narrowed properly at

+
+ * boot-9.scm (move->fdes, dup->port): use dup->fdes, not primitive-dup.

+
+ * boot-9.scm (setenv): new procedure, scsh compatible.

+
+ * boot-9.scm (with-fluids): New macro to go with the

+
+Thu Jul 24 04:28:11 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * slib.scm (install-require-module): In newer versions of slib
+ *catalog* is #f until the first access. Therefore we call
+ require:provided? for a random feature if *catalog* is #f.
+
+Wed Jul 23 20:13:04 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+

+
+ * boot-9.scm, debug.scm, hcons.scm, lineio.scm, mapping.scm,

+ notation, instead of #/ notation.
+
+ * expect.scm (expect-strings): Pass regexp/newline flag to

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

+
+ * boot-9.scm (struct-printer): Fix off-by-one error in range

+ expect-eof-proc, expect-char-proc, expect, expect-strings,
+ expect-select): Make these public definitions.
+ (expect-strings): Use make-regexp and regexp-exec, instead of
+ regcomp and regexec. We've omitted the REG_NEWLINE flag; hope
+ that's okay.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (with-regexp-parts): Comment this out. It has no
+ users in the core, and relies on mildly hairy details of the old
+ regexp interface.
+
+ * test.scm: Re-enable tests asserting that '() is true, and not a
+ boolean. This stuff has been true for a while.

+
+ * boot-9.scm (struct-layout, %struct-printer-tag, struct-printer,

+
+ * slib.scm (slib:load): Use primitive-load-path instead of
+ basic-load. This is probably wrong, but hopefully the entire
+ source access system will be revised soon anyway, and this will
+ make require behave more like Emacs Lisp's require. If this
+ breaks something, please let me know. Maybe this is real dumb.
+
+Thu May 29 02:36:48 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * regex.scm: Add a module declaration. Use DEFINE-PUBLIC everywhere.

+ (ice-9 regex).
+
+Tue May 27 22:48:14 1997 Tim Pierce <twp@twp.tezcat.com>
+
+ * regex.scm: New file.

+Thu May 15 07:56:08 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * expect.scm: use gettimeofday instead of get-internal-real-time
+ and use a floating point timeout when calling select. Untested,
+ since the regex library is currently AWOL.
+
+Wed May 14 21:00:30 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (eval-string): Function deleted; it was already

+ here.
+
+Tue May 13 16:40:06 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+

+
+Mon May 12 19:00:21 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): After reading an expression,
+ consume any trailing newline (perhaps preceded by whitespace), to
+ avoid screwing up GDB. More detail in comments.
+
+Mon May 5 13:18:38 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (ETAGS_ARGS): New variable, since we're not treating

+

+
+ * aclocal.m4: Removed; unnecessary, given changes of Apr 24.

+ * Makefile.in: Regeneratitetedrerd.
+
+Thu Apr 24 01:33:33 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>

+Wed Mar 19 04:50:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: define accessor procedures for the objects returned
+ by getpw, getgr, gethost, getnet, getproto, getserv (e.g.,
+ passwd:name, where the first component is the name of the C structure
+ and the second is the unprefixed C member name.)
+
+Tue Mar 18 18:39:31 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (setpwent, setgrent, sethostent, setnetent, setprotoent,
+ setservent): no longer take an argument, it was bogus.
+
+Thu Mar 13 00:13:41 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (scm-error): deleted, reimplemented in C.
+
+Mon Mar 10 15:48:31 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Modified to handle both
+ keywords and symbols.
+
+Sat Mar 8 04:32:44 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * slib.scm: update read usage.
+
+ * r4rs.scm: update primitive-load usage.
+ Don't define read-sharp.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: use read-hash-extend to install extra read syntax.
+ (read-sharp): removed.
+ Adjust usage of primitive-load-path, read, which no longer take
+ case_i or read-sharp arguments.
+
+Sat Mar 8 00:07:54 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Added loading of session support module.
+
+ * debug.scm: Removed `display-application'. (Replaced by
+ primitive procedure.)
+
+ * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Don't add the root module
+ interface to the end of the use-list of the root module.
+
+Thu Mar 6 07:26:34 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: repl-quit, repl-abort: obsolete variables deleted.
+
+Wed Mar 5 20:30:24 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: check use-emacs-interface for emacs support.
+
+Sun Mar 2 19:47:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): call repl-report-start-timing if
+ read gets EOF.
+ * (exit): alias for quit.
+
+Sun Mar 2 05:25:11 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop thunk): use a status variable to
+ return the quit args.
+ (scm-style-repl): call -quit, passing return value from
+ error-catching-repl. Make -quit return its args.
+ stand-alone-repl: comment out, since it seems unused.
+
+ (error-catching-loop thunk): discard trailing junk after a (quit).
+
+Sat Mar 1 15:24:39 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.
+
+ * r4rs.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Added comment
+ explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (apply, call-with-current-continuation): Bugfix:
+ Removed. These definitions are already present in r4rs.scm.
+
+ * debug.scm (trace-entry, trace-exit): Check that we're on a repl
+ stack before printing traced frames; Re-enable trace flag at end
+ of handlers.
+
+Sat Mar 1 00:10:38 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (run-hooks): New procedure.
+ (add-hooks!): New macro.
+ Change hooks to use these functions.
+
+ * debug.scm: *Warning* This feature is a bit premature. I add
+ it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
+ making it less premature by complaining to me and by modifying
+ the source! :-)
+ (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
+ Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
+ (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
+ Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
+ Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
+ procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
+ This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
+ traced.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of apply-frame
+ and exit-frame exceptions.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (assert-repl-prompt, the-prompt-string): Removed.
+ (set-repl-prompt!): Setter for repl prompt.
+ (scm-style-repl): If prompt is #f, don't prompt; if prompt is a
+ string, display it; if prompt is a thunk, call it and display its
+ result; otherwise display "> ".
+ (Change suggested by Roland Orre <orre@nada.kth.se>.)
+
+ * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Reverted change to
+ `module-defined?', since the module system isn't bootstrapped when
+ we load r4rs.scm. This is just a temporary fix to make the
+ repository version runnable.
+
+Thu Feb 27 23:25:47 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Removed the enabling of debug evaluator and
+ recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
+ convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
+ once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
+ we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of
+ boot-9.scm when loading the debug module.)
+
+Thu Feb 27 16:04:45 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (module-defined?): New function.
+ (macroexpand-1, macroexpand): Use local-ref instead of defined?
+ and eval.
+ * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Use "module-defined?" instead of
+ "defined?".
+ * slib.scm (defined?): New function to take the place of the
+ builtin "defined?". It allways examines the slib module.
+
+Mon Feb 24 21:46:15 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * configure.in: Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
+
+Sat Feb 15 04:51:20 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (read-sharp): define directly, don't go through a
+ %read-sharp layer.
+
+Tue Feb 11 08:45:48 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (uniform-vector-set!): use uniform-array-set1!, not
+ uniform-vector-set1! which doesn't exist.
+
+Mon Feb 10 03:01:48 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (backtrace): Removed. (A C version now exists in
+ backtrace.c.)
+
+Fri Jan 24 06:05:36 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (read-line!, read-delimited!, read-delimited,
+ read-line): new procedures, see libguile/ChangeLog.
+
+Thu Jan 16 17:07:03 1997 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ Added dynamic linking of modules. See libguile/DYNAMIC-LINKING.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
+ init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
+ find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
+ try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
+ dynamic linking of modules.
+ (resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
+ after failing to load it as Scheme code.
+
+Wed Jan 8 05:50:14 1997 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (getservbyport, getservbyname): remove stray %.
+
+Tue Jan 7 20:02:24 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (and=>): Rename THUNK argument to PROCEDURE, 'cos
+ that's what it is.
+
+ * lineio.scm (make-line-buffering-input-port): Properly test for
+ the case of an empty buffer list. The old code assumed that '()
+ was false.
+
+Mon Jan 6 01:13:53 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (use-modules): New macro (from Marius Vollmer).
+ (use-modules <module name> ...) Put the the modules named by
+ <module name> ... on the use list of the current module.
+
+Sun Jan 5 15:52:59 1997 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Remove message saying that
+ typing "$" will put you in the debugger. This isn't implemented
+ yet.
+
+Sun Dec 22 23:27:25 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (delq-all!): Function deleted; delq!'s semantics have
+ been fixed, so this function is superfluous.
+ (transform-usage-lambda): Use delq!, not delq-all!.
+
+Tue Dec 17 20:36:45 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (resolve-module): New optional parameter that
+ controls whether autoloading is attempted or not. Default is #t.
+ (process-define-module): Don't autoload the defined module.
+ (try-module-autoload): Don't autoload the directory modules.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Ensure that the-scm-module
+ is last in the `uses' list to allow shadowing builtin
+ bindings. All :use-module options are added in the order they
+ appear in the arguments but before anything already on the list
+ (such as the-scm-module).
+
+Wed Dec 11 21:06:05 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): throw error if #f returned from
+ %search-load-path.
+
+Sat Nov 30 23:57:28 1996 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
+
+ * PLUGIN/greet, PLUGIN/split.sed, PLUGIN/this.configure: Removed.
+ * Makefile.am, aclocal.m4: New files.
+ * configure.in: Updated for Automake.
+
+Wed Nov 27 14:16:14 1996 Marius Vollmer <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (macroexpand-1, macroexpand), slib.scm
+ (slib:features), r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): "defined?" is now a
+ function, use it accordingly.
+
+Thu Nov 21 11:12:10 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a
+ function of no arguments.
+ * boot-9.scm (module-type): Rename module field.
+ (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
+ set-current-module): Uses changed.
+ (module-eval-closure, set-module-eval-closure!,
+ root-module-closure): Renamed from module-eval-thunk,
+ set-module-eval-thunk!, root-module-thunk.
+ (set-current-module): Change uses of *top-level-lookup-thunk* to
+ *top-level-eval-closure*.
+
+Wed Nov 20 14:45:27 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
+
+ * slib.scm (slib-parent-dir): Use string-length, not length.
+ (Thanks to Bernard Urban.)
+
+Sat Nov 2 20:00:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
+ aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
+ debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
+ *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
+ beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
+
+ Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
+ `*features*'.
+
+ The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
+ now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
+ sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
+ `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
+
+ Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
+
+ Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
+
+ The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
+ If the user wants to see this, he can do
+ (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
+
+ The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
+ error.
+
+ Added `before-read-hook'.
+
+ Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
+
+ (provide): New function.
+
+ (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
+ in backtraces.
+
+ (backtrace): New function.
+
+ (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
+ specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
+ border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
+ number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
+ is found in operator position in a frame.
+
+ * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
+ by default.
+
+ * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
+ primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
+ ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
+
+ (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
+
+ (library-vicinity): Updated.
+
+ Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.
+
+ (install-require-vicinity, install-require-module): New functions.
+
+Mon Oct 28 17:56:29 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (load-from-path): New function.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (try-load, basic-try-load, try-load-module,
+ try-load): Deleted. I don't think they're being used.
+
+ * Makefile.in (scm_files): Add r4rs.scm and test.scm to this list,
+ so they'll get distributed.
+
+ Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
+ should see as little clutter as possible.
+ * r4rs.scm (%load-verbosely): Make this #f by default.
+ * boot-9.scm (scm-repl-verbose): Make this #f by default.
+ (scm-style-repl): Don't run 'pk' on the value passed to quit.
+
+ * r4rs.scm: New file.
+ * boot-9.scm: Load r4rs.scm, first thing.
+ (OPEN_READ, OPEN_WRITE, OPEN_BOTH, *null-device*, open-input-file,
+ open-output-file, open-io-file, close-input-port,
+ close-output-port, close-io-port, call-with-input-file,
+ call-with-output-file, with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
+ with-error-to-port, with-input-from-file, with-output-to-file,
+ with-error-to-file, with-input-from-string, with-output-to-string,
+ with-error-to-string, the-eof-object): Definitions moved to
+ r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
+ that are not.
+ (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
+ set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
+
+ * test.scm: New file.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
+ present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
+ idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
+ =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this
+ work now.
+ (%load-announce-win): Removed; no longer used. Set %load-hook to
+ call %load-announce.
+
+Sun Oct 27 07:47:03 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (stat:dev, stat:ino, stat:mode, stat:nlink, stat:uid,
+ stat:gid, stat:rdev, stat:size, stat:atime, stat:mtime,
+ stat:ctime, stat:blksize, stat:blocks) accessor functions for stat
+ components.
+ (file-is-directory?): use stat:type.
+
+Fri Oct 25 03:34:47 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%read-sharp): Don't recognize the `#!' syntax here;
+ that's now taken care of in libguile, and in a way compatible with
+ SCSH (which this isn't).
+
+Mon Oct 21 18:52:36 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
+
+Fri Oct 18 01:03:08 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (handle-system-error): Added hooks before-error-hook,
+ after-error-hook, before-backtrace-hook and after-backtrace-hook
+ to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into
+ these.
+ (save-stack): New function. The stack is now made differently
+ depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
+ choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
+ (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into
+ save-stack.
+
+Thu Oct 17 20:33:08 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * Makefile.in (scm_files): add expect.scm.
+
+ * expect.scm: new file ported from guile-iii.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: remove handle-system-error, after moving the code into
+ error-catching-loop.
+ Don't set 'throw-handler-default property on error keys.
+ Just interpret (almost) any throw with 4 args as an error throw.
+ Delete some try-load stuff that was already commented out.
+
+ Second thoughts, keep handle-system-error but call it from
+ error-catching-loop.
+
+Tue Oct 15 17:07:20 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Doc fixes.
+ (make-module): Rework for readability.
+ (make-root-module, make-scm-module): USES argument to make-module
+ should be '(), not #f.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (try-load): %sys-load-path has been renamed to
+ primitive-load-path; adjust call here.
+
+Tue Oct 15 14:25:01 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Bugfix: Moved the recording of
+ the stack to the correct place: when it is decided to generate an
+ error-signal.
+
+Mon Oct 14 22:20:30 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop, signal-handler,
+ handle-system-error): Backtracing now works for signals aswell;
+ Backtracing mechanism can now identify the stack root created by
+ start-stack so that the user isn't exposed to system stack frames.
+
+Mon Oct 14 06:05:42 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Added threads.scm.
+
+Mon Oct 14 04:21:51 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@woody.nada.kth.se>
+
+ * debug.scm (make-enable, make-disable): Simplified.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Renamed %%throw-handler-default -->
+ throw-handler-default.
+ ((handle-system-error key . arg-list)): Changed the way errors are
+ reported.
+ ((scm-style-repl)): Wrap up the call to eval in a start-stack
+ acro.
+ ((error-catching-loop thunk)): Introduce a lazy-catch into
+ error-catching-loop so that the stack can be captured.
+
+Thu Oct 10 22:27:32 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
+
+ * mapping.scm (hash-table-mapping): Explicitly request that
+ make-vector fill new vectors with '(); this will make it easier to
+ port Guile Scheme code to other Schemes.
+ * boot-9.scm (make-print-style, make-print-table): Same.
+
+Sun Oct 6 03:54:59 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (load): rewritten again.
+ Append "." to the default %load-path.
+ (feature?): new function: checks for a symbol in the features list.
+ (module-local-variable): remove apparently useless (caddr (list m v
+ ...))
+ (%load-announce): minor formatting change.
+ (file-exists?): use access? if posix is featured.
+ (file-is-directory?): use stat if i/o-extensions is featured.
+ (try-module-autoload module-name): use file-exists? before
+ file-is-directory?
+
+Sat Oct 5 18:54:03 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Added conditional loading of threads.scm.
+
+ * threads.scm: New file. Modified from the Cygnus-r0.3
+ distribution.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): Added handling of key
+ `switch-repl'.
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Name change %%bad-throw --> bad-throw.
+
+Wed Oct 2 23:38:44 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (make-record-type, record-constructor): Don't assume
+ the empty list is false when parsing the argument list.
+
+Mon Sep 30 22:15:50 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (signal-handler): Clean up logic.
+
+ * boot-9.scm (load): Assume %load-path is always bound.
+
+Sat Sep 28 00:15:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (error): replace another throw with scm-error. Throw
+ to 'misc-error instead of 'error (no need to distinguish these.)
+ Don't set up 'error as a key.
+ Set up regex-error as a key, if regex is available.
+ (signal-handler): use scm-error, not throw.
+
+ (%try-load, try-load-with-path, %load, load-with-path,
+ basic-try-load-with-path, basic-load-with-path,
+ try-load-module-with-path,load-module-with-path): deleted, since
+ they seem redundant.
+ (try-load): define using %try-load, not try-load-with-path.
+ (load): rewritten. load tries to open the file directly and
+ with a .scm extension before searching the library directories
+ (should "." be added to %load-path? then load could still open
+ directly files starting with "/").
+ (try-module-autoload): use load, not load-with-path.
+ (%load-indent): deleted, -2 was causing errors.
+
+ (%read-sharp): use port-line, not line-number.
+
+Fri Sep 27 16:23:51 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
+ straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
+ (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
+ Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
+ not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
+ than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
+ something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
+ robust to just do it in the C code.
+
+Tue Sep 24 06:53:04 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%try-load): define using primitive-load. Previously
+ %try-load itself was the primitive.
+ (load-with-path): use scm-error instead of %load-announce-lossage.
+ Errors are thrown to 'misc-error instead of 'could-not-load.
+ (%load-announce-lossage): deleted.
+
+Mon Sep 23 00:16:31 1996 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@kenneth>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (warn, scm-style-repl): Use C printer instead of `print'.
+ (make-record-type type-name fields): Temporarily remove support
+ for printing of records (not possible yet with C printer).
+
+Fri Sep 20 00:24:27 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (file-exists?, file-is-directory): catch only
+ system-error, not every kind of error.
+ (scm-error): new procedure.
+
+Thu Sep 19 16:02:46 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@totoro.cyclic.com>
+
+ * boot-9.scm: Formatting tweaks.
+
+Wed Sep 18 09:07:37 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
+
+ * boot-9.scm (%%handle-system-error key): remove the code for
+ SCM-style errors. handle the case that an unexpected number
+ of args are supplied.
+ (%%system-errors): removed.
+ (error): redefine using a throw with key and 4 args.
+ ('error): associate 'error, 'error-signal keys with
+ %%handle-system-error.
+ (%%default-error-handler): removed.
+ (signal-handler): throw with 4 args and use the error-signal key.
+ Create an error message instead of using numerical codes.
+ (%%bad-throw): call error instead of throw if key not found.
+
+Tue Sep 17 04:11:28 1996 Gary Houston <ghouston@actrix.gen.nz>
