* Changes to the stand-alone interpreter
New procedures have been added to implement a "batch mode":
** New procedures have been added to implement a "batch mode":
Function: batch-mode?
*** Function: batch-mode?
Returns a boolean indicating whether the interpreter is in batch
mode.
Function: set-batch-mode?! ARG
*** Function: set-batch-mode?! ARG
If ARG is true, switches the interpreter to batch mode. The `#f'
case has not been implemented.
** Guile now provides full command-line editing, when run interactively.
To use this feature, you must have the readline library installed.
The Guile build process will notice it, and automatically include
support for it.
The readline library is available via anonymous FTP from any GNU
mirror site; the canonical location is "ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu".
* Changes to the procedure for linking libguile with your programs
** You can now use the 'build-guile' utility to link against Guile.
Guile now includes a command-line utility called 'build-guile', which
writes to its standard output a list of flags which you must pass to
the linker to link against the Guile library. The flags include
'-lguile' itself.
This is necessary because the Guile library may depend on other
libraries for networking functions, thread support, and so on. To
link your program against libguile, you must link against these
libraries as well. The exact set of libraries depends on the type of
system you are running, and what you have installed on it. The
'build-guile' command uses information recorded in libguile itself to
determine which libraries you must link against.
For example, here is a Makefile rule that builds a program named 'foo'
from the object files ${FOO_OBJECTS}, and links them against Guile:
foo: ${FOO_OBJECTS}
${CC} ${CFLAGS} ${FOO_OBJECTS} `build-guile link` -o foo
* Changes to Scheme functions and syntax
** Multi-byte strings have been removed, as have multi-byte and wide
ports.
** New function: readline [PROMPT]
Read a line from the terminal, and allow the user to edit it,
prompting with PROMPT. READLINE provides a large set of Emacs-like
editing commands, lets the user recall previously typed lines, and
works on almost every kind of terminal, including dumb terminals.
READLINE assumes that the cursor is at the beginning of the line when
it is invoked. Thus, you can't print a prompt yourself, and then call
READLINE; you need to package up your prompt as a string, pass it to
the function, and let READLINE print the prompt itself. This is
because READLINE needs to know the prompt's screen width.
For Guile to provide this function, you must have the readline library
installed on your system.
See also ADD-HISTORY function.
** New function: add-history STRING
Add STRING as the most recent line in the history used by the READLINE
command. READLINE does not add lines to the history itself; you must
call ADD-HISTORY to make previous input available to the user.
** Some magic has been added to the printer to better handle user
written printing routines (like record printers, closure printers).

Add support for readline function.
* 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.
* ls.scm (ls, lls): Don't assume (eq? #f '()).
