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.
* symbols.h (SCM_SUBSTRP): Don't mask off the S bit; that's
exactly what we want to leave in to detect substrings.
(SCM_ROSTRINGP, ROUCHARS): Formatting tweaks.
* tags.h: Fix diagrams and comments describing the S tag bit;
remove vestigial remarks about the D tag bit.
(SCM_TYP7, SCM_TYP7S): Rephrased for readability.
* strings.c: Formatting tweaks.
name conflicts with the Qt user interface toolkit.
* threads.m4 (CY_AC_WITH_THREADS): Use new library name.
* configure.in: Same.
* aclocal.m4, configure: Regenerated.
Give more details about the deleted header files, and functions.
Clarify explanation of build-guile.
Make all the syscall changes subheadings of "Changes to Scheme
functions and syntax".
* readline.c, readline.h: New files.
* init.c: #include "readline.h".
(scm_boot_guile_1): Call scm_init_readline, if we have it.
* Makefile.am (libguile_la_SOURCES): Include readline.c.
* Makefile.in: Regenerated.
* scmconfig.h.in: Regenerated, after change to ../configure.
* 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.
* gh_test_c.c (c_vector_test): some improvements on the vector
routines test.
* gh.h (gh_vector): this used to exist but do the wrong thing.
Now it (almost) does the right thing, though it takes a list
instead of the individual arguments. I need to see how it could
be done right.
(gh_list_to_vector): added this function as a macro. Corresponds
to Scheme's (list->vector ...).
(gh_vector_to_list): added this function as a macro. Corresponds
to Scheme's (vector->list ...).
* gh_data.c (gh_vector_ref): renamed from gh_vref to
gh_vector_ref, so that it resembles the Scheme routines more.
(gh_vector_set): renamed from gh_vset to gh_vector_set, so that it
resembles the Scheme routines more.
(gh_make_vector): this used to be (stupidly) called gh_vector().
This is the right name, since it does the same thing as the Scheme
(make-vector ...) procedure.
Some indentation fixes.
* objects.h (SCM_METACLASS_STANDARD_LAYOUT): Printer field is no
longer a user field; New field: class_flags.
* objets.c, objects.h: New metaclass: scm_metaclass_operator.
expect-strings to fix the => syntax under the new regex system.
(top): include regex module in define-module statement.
* (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.
* boot-9.scm (struct-layout): Use `vtable-index-layout' instead of
`0'.

* boot-9.scm (struct-printer, make-struct-printer,
set-struct-printer-in-vtable!, *struct-printer*): Removed.
(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).
(record-type-name, record-type-fields): Decreased slot index by
one; Use `vtable-offset-user'.
