* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Conversion to/from C): Document scm_from_latin1_string, scm_from_utf8_string, and scm_from_utf32_string. Remind readers that these functions should be used to convert C string constants, and that scm_from_locale_string is _not_ appropriate for that purpose. (Symbol Primitives): Document scm_from_latin1_symbol and scm_from_utf8_symbol. Remind readers that these functions should be used when the specified names are C string constants, and that scm_from_locale_symbol is _not_ appropriate for that purpose. |

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 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 The Revised^4 Report (r4rs.texi) is no longer in this distribution, as it is completely superseded by the Revised^5 Report.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/.
