support.
* guile-readline: New directory, see ChangeLog there.
* configure.in: Cause configure to descend into guile-readline
dir.
* Makefile.am: Likewise for make.
* NEWS: Explain how to activate the readline support.
* configure, Makefile.in, aclocal.m4: Regenerated.
SCM_TYP7, SCM_TYP7S, SCM_TYP16, SCM_TYP16S, SCM_GCTYP16,
SCM_GCMARKP, SCM_GC8MARKP): Don't cast to int. Either SCM or no
cast at all is more appropriate in every case. At the moment, we
assume everywhere that SCM is an integral type anyway.
* snarf.h (SCM_PROC, SCM_PROC1): Use __cplusplus or
GUILE_CPLUSPLUS_SNARF macros to force adding a cast to the last
(function pointer) argument to scm_make_gsubr and scm_make_subr
calls. This avoids warnings in C++ programs using guile-snarf.
* unif.c (scm_uniform_array_read_x), ports.c (scm_getc): increment
read_pos after scm_fill_buffer.
* ioext.c (scm_do_read_line): simplify by ignoring the fill_buffer
return char.
* vports.c (sf_fill_buffer), strports.c (stfill_buffer),
fports.c (fport_fill_buffer): implement the interface change.
* ports.c (scm_fill_buffer): interface change: no longer increments
read_pos past the character that's returned. it seems clearer to
leave it to the caller to decide what to do (thanks Jim).
* vports.c (sf_fill_buffer): put the read char into the buffer
as well as returning it.
* ports.c (scm_grow_port_cbuf): residue of this deleted procedure
deleted.
* strports.c (scm_strprint_obj): simplify. start with initial
buffer size of 0.
(st_seek): don't allow string to be extended if seeking past
the end of a read-only port.

* strports.c (st_seek): change the resize checks.
* ports.c (scm_ftruncate): throw error if offset works out negative.
* strports.c (st_flush): increase string size in blocks of
SCM_WRITE_BLOCK instead of 1. set read_end to read_pos if
it's greater and reset read_buf_size.
(scm_mkstrport): set rw_randow if only writing, since read_buf needs
to be maintained for output ports too (it holds the written
part of the string, while write_buf may have unwritten buffer
chars.)
(st_truncate): rewritten.
(top of file): added a few notes.
1999-07-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
* strports.c (st_grow_port): set pt->read_pos. set
pt->read_buf_size one less than pt->write_buf_size if there's
an unwritten char at the end of the string. similarly for
pt->read_end.
(st_resize_port): renamed from st_grow_port.
(st_seek): simplify by assuming that pt->write_pos == pt->read_pos.
seek from read_end instead of write_end for SEEK_END.
(st_ftruncate): calculate current length using readbuf, not write
buf.
(scm_strport_to_string): use read_buf_size for length.
(stfill_buffer): don't re-initialise the readbuf.
1999-07-05 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
* strports.c (scm_strport_to_string): new procedure.
(scm_call_with_output_string, scm_strprint_obj): use
scm_strport_to_string.
used SCM_INUM0 instead of SCM_MAKINUM (0) in a few places.
