* doc/ref/guile.texi: Likewise.
* doc/ref/intro.texi (Introduction): Change "some" to "the".

(Supporting Multiple Languages): New text, reflecting currently
supported languages.
(Obtaining and Installing Guile): Use @var for version placeholder.
Remove mention of separate tutorial.
Conflicts:
doc/ref/api-procedures.texi
doc/ref/misc-modules.texi
(Caused by me removing `@page' from a couple of sections that have been modified
by others.)
* doc/ref/api-foreign.texi: New file.
* doc/ref/api-modules.texi: Reorganize bits about dynamic linking into
api-foreign.
* doc/ref/guile.texi:
* doc/ref/Makefile.am: Adapt to api-foreign.texi.
* libguile/array-map.c (array_compare, scm_array_equal_p): Rewrite as
something that operates on the generic array handle infrastructure.
Based on array->list.
(scm_i_array_equal_p): Change the docs, as array-equal? is now the same
as equal?, except that it typechecks its args.
* doc/ref/api-compound.texi (Array Procedures): Update array-equal?
docs.
* libguile/deprecated.h:
* libguile/deprecated.c (scm_raequal): Deprecate.
* libguile/bytevectors.c (scm_bytevector_eq_p): Bugfix: bytevectors are
bytevector=? only if their element type is the same.
* libguile/eq.c (scm_equal_p): Only dispatch to scm_array_equal_p if
both args are arrays (generically).
* test-suite/tests/arrays.test ("equal?"): Add some more tests.
* doc/ref/intro.texi (Linking Guile into Programs):
* doc/ref/libguile-linking.texi (A Sample Guile Main Program): Update
examples of how to link with guile.
* doc/ref/api-macros.texi: New file, documenting macros. Removed some
old cruft, and started documenting hygienic macros.
* doc/ref/api-procedures.texi: Moved macro things out of here.
* doc/ref/guile.texi: Separate macros from procedures.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi: Update some xrefs.
* doc/ref/Makefile.am: Add api-macros.texi.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Bytevectors as Strings): Remove obsolete
footnote on the lack of Unicode support.
* test-suite/tests/bytevectors.test ("2.9 Operations on
Strings")["string->utf8 [latin-1]", "utf8->string [latin-1]"]: Remove
use of `with-latin1-locale'.
["string->utf32 [Greek]"]: New tests.
* doc/ref/api-control.texi (Handling Errors): Move the "Signalling Type
Errors" section here.
* doc/ref/data-rep.texi (Data Representation): Refactor, lopping and
cropping and stitching.
* doc/ref/libguile-concepts.texi (Dynamic Types):
* doc/ref/libguile-smobs.texi (Describing a New Type, Double Smobs):
* doc/ref/guile.texi (Guile Implementation, Programming in C): Adapt to
refactorings.
* doc/ref/history.texi (A Scheme of Many Maintainers):
(A Timeline of Selected Guile Releases, Status): Update.
the module currently being loaded (i.e., make-texinfo.scm itself),
resulting in confusing behavior for offset builds. So, don't use
them.
* doc/ref/Makefile.am ($(snarf_doc).texi): Use an absolute path for
the input file.
* libguile/deprecated.h:
* libguile/deprecated.c (scm_internal_lazy_catch, scm_lazy_catch):
Deprecate, and print out a nasty warning that people should change to
with-throw-handler.
* libguile/throw.h:
* libguile/throw.c (scm_c_with_throw_handler): Deprecate the use of the
lazy_catch_p argument, printing out a nasty warning if someone
actually passes 1 as that argument. The combination of the pre-unwind
and post-unwind handlers should be sufficient.
* test-suite/tests/exceptions.test: Remove lazy-catch tests, as they are
deprecated. Two of them fail:
* throw/catch: effect of lazy-catch unwinding on throw to another key
* throw/catch: repeat of previous test but with lazy-catch
Hopefully people are not depending on this behavior, and the warning is
sufficiently nasty for people to switch. We will see.
* test-suite/tests/eval.test ("promises"): Use with-throw-handler
instead of lazy-catch.
* doc/ref/api-debug.texi:
* doc/ref/api-control.texi: Update to remove references to lazy-catch,
folding in the useful bits to with-throw-handler.
* libguile/posix.h:
* libguile/posix.c (scm_utime): Add optional nanosecond arguments. This
is an incompatible change on the C level, but it's unlikely people are
using this POSIX wrapper function, because they would just use the
POSIX function directly. Hopefully, anyway.
* module/system/base/compile.scm (call-with-output-file/atomic):
Propagate source timestamps to targets with nanosecond precision, if
available. Fixes build on systems with ext4 filesystems.
* libguile/filesys.c (scm_stat2scm):
* module/ice-9/posix.scm (stat:atimensec, stat:mtimensec)
(stat:ctimensec): Add three new elements to Scheme stat structures,
for nanosecond-level timestamps.
* configure.ac: Add checks for utimensat, and for nanosecond fields in
struct stat. We should switch to using Gnulib things for these,
though.
* doc/ref/posix.texi (File System): Add documentation for utime's
additional arguments, and nanosecond stat timestamp accessors.
R6RS suggests that '\b' should be a string escape for the backspace
character.
* libguile/read.c (scm_read_string): parse backspace escape
* test-suite/tests/strings.test (R6RS backslash escapes): new test
(Guile extensions backslash escapes): remove R6RS escapes from test.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Strings): document new string escape
R6RS adds new names for some of the control characters.
* libguile/chars.c (scm_r6rs_charnames, scm_r6rs_charnums)
(SCM_N_R6RS_CHARNAMES): new character name constants
(scm_alt_charnames, scm_alt_charnums): modified to remove duplicates
(scm_i_charname, scm_i_charname_to_char): use new constants
* test-suite/tests/chars.test (R5RS character names, R6RS character names):
new tests
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Characters): updated
* module/ice-9/pretty-print.scm (truncated-print): Set
`%default-port-encoding' to the encoding of PORT. Choose either
U+2026 or "..." depending on PORT's encoding.
* test-suite/tests/print.test ("truncated-print")[tprint]: New ENCODING
argument. Update existing tests accordingly. Add UTF-8 tests.
* doc/ref/misc-modules.texi (Pretty Printing): Mention the possible use
of U+2026.
* doc/ref/api-compound.texi (Uniform Numeric Vectors): Make a subsection
of "Vectors", and link out to SRFI-4, where the main text has been
moved.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Bytevectors as Uniform Vectors): New section.
* doc/ref/srfi-modules.texi (SRFI-4): Move body of uniform vector docs
here. Discuss new module separation. Discuss relation to bytevectors.
* libguile/strports.c (scm_i_mkstrport): Remove.
(scm_mkstrport): Don't change the port's encoding to UTF-8; convert
STR to the default port encoding.
(scm_strport_to_string): Fix documentation & indentation.
* libguile/strports.h (scm_i_mkstrport): Remove.
* test-suite/lib.scm (exception:encoding-error): New variable.
(format-test-name): Set `%default-port-encoding' to "UTF-8".
* test-suite/tests/ports.test ("string ports")["%default-port-encoding
is honored", "suitable encoding [latin-1]", "suitable encoding
[latin-3]", "wrong encoding"]: New tests.
* test-suite/tests/r6rs-ports.test ("7.2.11 Binary
Output")["put-bytevector with UTF-16 string port", "put-bytevector
with wrong-encoding string port"]: New tests.
* test-suite/tests/reader.test (read-string): Set
`%default-port-encoding' to `#f'.
("reading")["unprintable symbol"]: Use a string that doesn't contain
zeros.
* doc/ref/api-io.texi (String Ports): Document encoding issues with
`call-with-output-string' and `with-output-to-string'.
Both were introduced in commit c55cb58a ("integrate guile-lib docs").
* doc/ref/Makefile.am ($(snarf_doc)scmfiles): Rename target to...
($(snarf_doc)-scmfiles): ... this. Change to generate a makefile
snippet containing a variable definition. Automake-include the
generated snippet, `standard-library.am'.
(EXTRA_DIST): Add `$(snarf_doc).am'.
(CLEANFILES): Remove `$(snarf_doc)scmfiles'.
* doc/ref/make-texinfo.scm: Remove executable bit and "#!/usr/bin/env".
* doc/ref/standard-library.am: New file.
* libguile/vm-i-system.c (tail-call, tail-call/nargs, tail-apply)
(tail-call/cc): Rename these back to tail-* from goto/*. We should
reserve the rename-then-goto name for when you actually do a rename
and goto, not when you shuffle the stack.
* doc/ref/vm.texi:
* module/language/glil/decompile-assembly.scm:
* module/language/tree-il/compile-glil.scm:
* test-suite/tests/tree-il.test: Adapt all callers and documentation.
