guile/doc
Andy Wingo 0b6d8fdc28 allow building against uninstalled guile; move some things to meta/
* README: Add more info about building against an uninstalled Guile.

* meta/: New directory. The proximate cause of its creation is that I
  want to be able to build external packages against uninstalled Guile,
  and to do that I need guile-tools in the PATH, but I don't want
  $top_builddir/libtool in the path. But it seems like a good
  reorganization, for things that are /about/ Guile: pkg-config files, m4
  files, guile-config... then we also include uninstalled info: the
  environment, the pre-inst-guile script, etc.

* meta/guile-1.8-uninstalled.pc.in: New pkg-config template. pkg-config
  prefers -uninstalled pkg-config files, if they are in its path.

* meta/Makefile.am:
* meta/ChangeLog-2008:
* meta/gdb-uninstalled-guile.in:
* meta/guile-1.8.pc.in:
* meta/guile-config.in:
* meta/guile.m4:
* meta/guile-tools.in: Moved to meta/.

* meta/guile.in: This is the new name of pre-inst-guile.in.

* meta/uninstalled-env.in: And this, pre-inst-guile-env.in.

* Makefile.am:
* am/guilec:
* am/pre-inst-guile:
* check-guile.in:
* configure.in:
* doc/ref/Makefile.am:
* gc-benchmarks/run-benchmark.scm:
* test-suite/standalone/Makefile.am:
* test-suite/standalone/README:
* testsuite/Makefile.am: Adapt to meta/ change.

This directory contains documentation on the Guile core.         -*-text-*-

The documentation consists of the following manuals.

- The Guile Tutorial (guile-tut.texi) contains a tutorial introduction
  to using Guile.

- The Guile Reference Manual (guile.texi) contains (or is intended to
  contain) reference documentation on all aspects of Guile.

- The GOOPS Manual (goops.texi) contains both tutorial-style and
  reference documentation for using GOOPS, Guile's Object Oriented
  Programming System.

- The Revised^5 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme (r5rs.texi).

Please be aware that this is all very much work in progress (apart
from the Revised^5 Report).  Bug reports and contributions are
welcome!

The file `oldfmt.c' contains a function which can be used by
application writers to support both old-style and new-style error
format strings.

The `sources' directory includes some stuff relevant to the Guile
reference manual, and which may eventually be folded in to it.  It's
not immediately relevant, however, which is why it's not in this
directory.

The Revised^4 Report (r4rs.texi) is no longer in this distribution, as
it is completely superseded by the Revised^5 Report.  If you need to
consult R4RS, it is still widely available, for example at
http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/projects/info/SchemeDocs/r4rs/.
