Suggested by David Kastrup <dak@gnu.org> in <http://bugs.gnu.org/13644>.
* libguile/read.c (scm_read_string_like_syntax): Accept "\(" as
equivalent to "(".
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (String Syntax): Document it.
* test-suite/tests/reader.test ("reading"): Add test.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Symbol Read Syntax): Mention the 'r7rs-symbols'
print option, and provide example code to enable both the read and
print options. Add 'r7rs-symbols' to the concept index.
* libguile/private-options.h (SCM_R7RS_SYMBOLS_P): New macro.
(SCM_N_READ_OPTIONS): Increment.
* libguile/read.c (scm_read_opts): Add entry for 'r7rs-symbols'.
(t_read_opts): Add field for 'r7rs_symbols_p'.
(scm_read_string_like_syntax): New function based on earlier
'scm_read_string' that handles either string literals or R7RS quoted
symbols (delimited by vertical bars), depending on the value of 'chr'.
(scm_read_string): Reimplement based on 'scm_read_string_like_syntax'.
(scm_read_r7rs_symbol): New static function.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Symbol Read Syntax): Briefly describe the R7RS
symbol syntax, mention the 'r7rs-symbols' read option, and give some
examples.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (Scheme Read): Mention the 'r7rs-symbols'
read option.
* test-suite/tests/reader.test ("reading"): Add test.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Conversion to/from C, Symbol Primitives,
Keyword Procedures): Fix the recommendations for conversion of C
string constants. The encoding of the source code is irrelevant in
modern compilers. What is relevant is the execution character set.
Both GCC and clang use UTF-8 by default, so recommend the
'scm_from_utf8_*' functions when the argument is a C string constant.
Also fix the broken texinfo markup for 'scm_from_*_symbol' that
prevented them from being listed in the index.
* libguile/keywords.c (scm_keyword_argument_error): New variable.
(scm_c_bind_keyword_arguments): New API function.
* libguile/keywords.h (enum scm_keyword_arguments_flags): New enum.
(scm_t_keyword_arguments_flags): New typedef.
(scm_c_bind_keyword_arguments): New prototype.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Coding With Keywords, Keyword Procedures): Add
documentation.
* test-suite/standalone/test-scm-c-bind-keyword-arguments.c: New file.
* test-suite/standalone/Makefile.am: Add
test-scm-c-bind-keyword-arguments test.
* libguile/numbers.c (left_shift_exact_integer,
floor_right_shift_exact_integer, round_right_shift_exact_integer): New
static functions.
(scm_round_ash): New procedure.
(scm_ash): Reimplement in terms of 'left_shift_exact_integer' and
'floor_right_shift_exact_integer'.
* libguile/numbers.h: Add prototype for scm_round_ash. Rename the
second argument of 'scm_ash' from 'cnt' to 'count'.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test (round-ash, ash): Add new unified
testing framework for 'ash' and 'round-ash'. Previously, the tests
for 'ash' were not very comprehensive; for example, they did not
include a single test where the number to be shifted was a bignum.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Bitwise Operations): Add documentation for
'round-ash'. Improve documentation for `ash'.
* libguile/random.c (random_state_of_last_resort): Simplify optional
inclusion of PID in the random state. Clarify in the comments that
the PID is only included where scm_getpid is present.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Random): Clarify that
'random-state-from-platform' includes the PID in the random state only
if scm_getpid is present.
