* doc/ref/misc-modules.texi (Formatted Output): Adapt ~f documentation
to indicate that the output will always have a decimal point. Thanks
to Fu-gangqiang for the report.
* THANKS: Update.
This is so that compiling the same code on environments with different
locale settings yields the same result.
* module/system/base/compile.scm (compile-file): When ENC if #f, default
to "UTF-8" instead of `(fluid-ref %default-port-encoding)'.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (Compilation): Document the default output
file name and default source file encoding for `compile-file' and
`guile-tools compile'.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_is_integer): Infinities are not integers, per
the R6RS.
(scm_even_p, scm_odd_p): Passing an infinity to even? or odd? is an
error.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test ("integer?"): Adapt test.
("expt"): Add tests for +inf.0 and -inf.0 exponents.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries.
Thanks to Mark Harig for pointing this out and suggesting the text.
* doc/ref/scheme-scripts.texi (Invoking Guile): Mention --autocompile
and --no-autocompile.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (The Metaobject Protocol): Bring forward to
before `Class Options', and add intro text to explain why. All of
the sections now remaining are ones where the MOP is more likely to
be relevant than not.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (GOOPS Object Miscellany): New section, combining
previous `Object Comparison', `Cloning Objects' and `Write and
Display'. Replace `Object Comparison' text with something that
makes sense. Add a snippet to the end of the write/display section.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (Introspection): Make a bit snappier.
(Classes): Add intro. Remove "the" and "metaobject" everywhere.
Remove `class-environment', since I don't know what it's useful for.
(Instances): Remove implementation notes.
(Built-in classes): Merge with `Instances'. Reorder text points.
(Generic Functions): Add intro. Remove "the" and "metaobject"
everywhere.
(Generic Function Methods): Merge with `Generic Functions'.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (Introspection): Move to after `Generic Functions
and Methods'. The idea is to have all of that sections that make
sense without needing to understand the MOP, before sections that
really depend on the MOP.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (Methods and Generic Functions): More explanation
of generic function invocation. Created (or moved) subsections here
to cover material on the following that was previously spread elsewhere:
accessors; extending primitives; merging generics; generic function
examples; handling invocation errors. Edited for clarity throughout.
(Generic functions and methods, Example): Nodes deleted, with their
material incorporated above.
(Class Precedence List): Edited to improve clarity.
(Sorting Methods): New subsection.
* doc/ref/web.texi (HTTP): Add an example for declaring a header, and
adapt to read-header change.
* module/web/http.scm (read-header): Return EOF for both values if there
are no more headers, instead of #f.
(read-headers): Adapt.
* doc/ref/web.texi (Types and the Web): Fix spacing.
(URIs): Give default values, and clarify a number of procedure docs.
Update "encoding" name, and string->uri name.
Suggested by Noah Lavine <noah.b.lavine@gmail.com>.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (String Searching): Mention the return value of
`string-index', `string-index-right', and `string-rindex' when no
match is found.
* libguile/srfi-13.c (scm_string_index, scm_string_index_right,
scm_string_rindex): Adjust docstring accordingly.
* module/ice-9/threads.scm (parallel, par-mapper): Rewrite in terms of
`future' and `touch'.
* test-suite/tests/threads.test ("par-map", "par-for-each"): New test
prefixes.
* doc/ref/api-scheduling.texi (Parallel Forms): Add cross-ref to
futures. Recommend against the `n-' variants.
* doc/ref/web.texi (Requests, Responses): Flesh out.
(Web Examples): New section, replacing "Web Handlers". The only one
that's not really written yet.
* doc/ref/web.texi: New file, here to document the various (web ...)
modules. Quite a rough beginning, but it is a start...
* doc/ref/guile.texi:
* doc/ref/Makefile.am: Add to manual.
* libguile/posix.c (scm_total_processor_count,
scm_current_processor_count): New functions.
* libguile/posix.h (scm_total_processor_count,
scm_current_processor_count): New declarations.
* test-suite/tests/posix.test ("nproc"): New test prefix.
* doc/ref/posix.texi (Processes): Document `total-processor-count' and
`current-processor-count'.
* doc/ref/posix.texi (Processes): Add cross-reference from `setaffinity'
and `getaffinity' to the corresponding node in the glibc manual.
* libguile/posix.c (scm_getaffinity, scm_setaffinity): Likewise.
