	* Lib/init.stk (dotimes): Corrected incorrect behavior for
 	negative bounds. Bug signalled by "Ben L. Di Vito"

1999-09-01  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/syntax.c (syntax_let_family): Bug correction in named let:

 	the let and not the * initialization values of the bound
 	variables. That means that
	   (let ((f -)) (let f ((n (f 1))) n)) => -1
	rather than 1. This (apparently very common) bug was signaled in
 	comp.lang.scheme.

 	returns #t for all the input port (i.e. file, string and virtual
 	port) instead of the file port only. A new primitive as been
 	added: input-file-port? for testing explicitly if an object is an
 	input port. Of course, the same applies also for output. This
 	change was needed to be conform to SRFI-6.

1999-08-30  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Lib/defsyntax.stk : R4RS define-syntax. This is the Macro By

 	reading of initialization file doesn't pop this weird black empty
 	window on the screen.

	* Src/port.c (STk_close_file_port): closing a closed file with
 	fclose on glibc2.1.1 dumps core. fclose has been replaced by a

1999-08-03  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/unix.c: Modifications to parse correctly DOS filenames.
  	This is probably not completely correct (DOS guys are really

	* Lib/tk-init.stk ("edit"): The ed function is now the scheme editor
	instead of the old one in file editor.stk

	* Lib/text.stk: Deleted the binding for Control-v on Unix. I don't
 	like that but this allow to be more consistent with others
 	software which use the windowish Contol-C Control-v Control-X
 	bindings.

	* Lib/tk-init.stk:New functions set-widget-property! and
 	get-widget-property

1998-12-02  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Lib/tk-init.stk: Typo correction which prevent the loading of
	Tk:get-save-file on Unix.

	* STklos/Tk/Text.stklos: Correction of a bug in the initialization
 	of <Text-window> (generic parent was hidden by a local). Thanks to
 	Eric Fintzel <tpfintz@fr.ibm.com> for signaling it.

1998-12-01  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/argv.c: New option -console to the interpreter to interact
 	through a console rather than a xterm. On Windows, the console
 	will be the implicit way to interact with the interpreter

	* Src/console.c:
	* Lib/console.stk: New files to implement a console for interacting
	with STklos.

	* Lib/font-lock.stk: New file. Font-lock doesn't need to load STklos
	now.

1998-11-22  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/port.c (STk_copy_port): New primitive: copy-port

	* Src/tcl-lib.c : Some cleaning on Tcl channels.

	* STklos/Tk/Listbox.stklos (y-view): Method lacks a dot before the
 	"args" paramter (thanks to Walter C. Pelissero
 	<wcp@luppolo.lpds.sublink.org> for signaling it).

1998-11-21  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* configure.in : Applied the patch given by Shiro Kawai
	<shiro@squareusa.com> for IRIX 6.2.

	* Src/port.c: Char-ready is now implemented in io.c which is a
 	quite natural place ... More code cleaning.

1998-11-19  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/sport.c: New primitive with-error-to-string

	* Src/port.c:
	  - New primitive with-error-to-file (why was it absent?)
	  - New primitives with-input-from-port, with-output-to-port,
	    with-error-to-port
	  - Rewriting of large parts of the file using new primitives.

	  Src/io.c: has completely be rewritten. It should be faster now
 	  and handle all the kind of port we have: file, strings and
 	  virtual

1998-11-18  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Lib/text.stk: Pasting with mouse is now correct.

1998-11-10  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/*.c : * Extensions/*.c: Funtions using files heve all been
 	replaced with port. It means that port, string-ports and virtual
 	ports are now truly interchangeable. The drawback is that user
	code written in C which use files can be BROKEN.

1998-11-05  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/signal.c (STk_send_signal): New primitive.

1998-11-04  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/vport.c: New file which implement virtual ports. A virtual
	port can be opened for reading or writing. Functions to access
	the port are given by the user as Scheme procedures

	* STklos/Tk/Composite/Filebox.stklos : Error messages use a :text
 	option instead of :message => error messages were not correctly
 	displayed

1998-10-29  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/port.c (STk_read_line): starts now with a static buffer and
 	extend it dynamically if needed. Furthermore a potential bug has
 	been corrceted.

1998-10-22  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Lib/listbox.stk : 2 typo errors corrected

1998-10-15  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* STklos/Tk/Toplevel.stklos: New generic-function: children and
 	typo error correction in export list

1998-09-30  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Release 3.99.3

1998-09-27  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/toplevel.c (init_interpreter): *stk-library* is now
 	initialized here instead in the Tk initialization procedure
	(implying that this variable is now defined in snow).

	* Tk version is now 8.0.3. The stable version of Tk8.0

1998-09-26  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Demos/classbrowse.stklos: New Demo of the class browser

	* Lib/class-browser.stklos: New file. This is class browser which
 	fully use the MOP to display various informations about classes,
 	such as their methods or their slots. Accessing to a class is done
 	through a panel which shows the complete class hierarchy

	* Lib/method-editor.stklos: New file: Editor for methods and
 	generic functions

	* Demos/widget.stk: Code of the various demo of the big widget
 	program are now "font-locked".

	* STklos/Tk/Composite/Schemetext.stklos: New class: <Scheme-text>.
	This is a subclass of <Scroll-text> specialize for Scheme
 	programs. For now, only Emacs like "font-locking" is done by this
 	widget.

	* Tk/generic/tkText.c (TextSearchCmd): Added environment
 	management to the Text searches.

1998-09-25  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/tcl-lib.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Cache of regexp was not
 	correctly initialized.

	* STklos/Tk/Composite/Multiwin.stklos: Border width of a Mutiple
 	window is fixed to 0. Otherwise, displacement of inner windows is
 	"chaotic". This particularly occurs when the user has a default
 	border-width defined in its Xdefaults file.

1998-09-19  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Extensions/locale.c: New file. This extensions implement string
	and character comparisons using locale. The new functions are of
	the form string-lo<?, string-lo-ci=?, and so on...

	* Src/str.c (stringcomp): Bug in stringcomp with 8bit characters.
  	We had (char<? #\<5C> #\e) => #f whereas (string<? "<22>" "e") => #t
	Comparison is now done on unsigned chars.


1998-09-17  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/argv.c (STk_process_argc_argv): Processing of argument has
 	been rewritten.

1998-09-16  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/number.c (_STk_do_addition): Bug correction (two small
 	giving a bignum in some cases).

1998-09-10  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Lib/tk-unix.stk: completely rewritten.

	* Doc/Manual/choose-color.n:
	* Doc/Manual/message-box.n:  New manual pages

	* STklos/Tk/Tk-classes.stklos : The standard Tk dialog were not
 	exported correctly.

1998-09-09  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Big code cleanup on all STk code. There were problems with
 	Alpha, and I hope that this cleanup, will ease to find the
 	problems.

1998-08-31  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Tk/unix/tkUnixSend.c (TkGetInterpNames): Bug correction: If the
 	number of running intrepreters was 1, the command (winfo 'interps)
 	returned a strings instead of a list of length 1.

	* Src/toplevel.c (repl_driver): The interpreter cannot be executed
 	if the DISPLAY variable is not set and the option -no-tk has not
 	been used. This should avoid me a lot of mail from people which
 	install STk and complain of weird message when launching the
 	demos...

	* Src/eval.c (STk_eval): Call to apply without parameter
 	(i.e. [apply]) yields an error. This was a long standing bug
 	signalled by Josh Mc Donald in 1995!!!

1998-08-29  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* STklos/Tk/Toplevel.stklos: Two new methods make-transient and
	place-toplevel.

	* STklos/stklos.stk (class-methods): New function, which return
 	all the methods which have a given class (or a descendant) in its
 	specializers.

1998-08-25  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* STklos/Tk/Composite/Notepad.stklos: New file which define a
 	Note-pad class.

	* Demos/stklos-widgets.stklos: Added <Notepad> demo

1998-08-24  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* STklos/Tk/Composite/Hierarchy.stklos: New file which define 2
 	new classes: <Hierarchy-tree> and <Hierarchy-item> which allow to
 	display any kind of hierarchy (see the source file for 3 examples
 	of use).

	* Demos/stklos-widgets.stklos: Added <hierarchy-tree> demo


1998-08-23  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Tk/generic/tkBind.c (Tk_CreateBinding, FreeTclBinding): Bug
 	correction: Bindings on item canvas, were not properly
 	garbaged. BTW, the way for keeping track of closures used in
 	bindings has been simplified.

	* Tk/generic/tkCmds.c (Tk_BindCmd): Adaptated to the new scheme
	for bindings.

1998-08-20  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* STklos/Tk/Scrollbar.stklos: Adding exportation of
 	STk:{h|v}-scroll-side and STk:{h|v}-scroll-side-set!

1998-07-28  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* STklos/stklos.stk (compute-get-n-set): Signaling that an
 	allocation scheme is unknown is now done in a method which
 	discriminate on <object> instead of <class>. This greatly
 	simplifies the usage of meta-classes which use multiple
 	inheritance (old code implicitly suppose that a meta-class has a
 	CPL of the form [ ... <class> <object> <top>]. With this
 	modification, <class> can appear before an "ante-penultiem"
 	position.

1998-07-27  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Utils/STk.spec.in: Modified to be more architecture independent
 	(as far as possible). In particular Linux PPC should work
 	(inspired from a STk.spec file given by Philippe Laliberte
 	<arsphl@oeil.qc.ca>).

1998-07-25  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Tk/unix/tkUnixWm.c: Make the result of (wm 'state ...)
  	consistent. It was, depending the cases, a string or a
 	symbol. This is always a string now. THIS COULD BREAK EXISTING
 	CODE!

	* Lib/tk-init.stk (*start-withdrawn*): One example of code broken
 	by previous modification...

1998-07-22  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/Makefile.in (install.stk.libs): The tcl-glue.h and tk-glue.h
 	files were not installed when doing a "make
 	install.libs". Corrected now. Thanks to Vincent Granet
 	<vg@unice.fr> for signalling it.


1998-07-20  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/print.c (printlist_star): Buggy when printing some simple
 	dotted pair.  The patch was provided by Ian Wild
 	<ian.wild@eurocontrol.be>.

	* Tk/generic/tkFont.c (GetAttributeInfoObj): Bug when reporting
 	boolean font attributes. Bug signalled by Vincent Granet
 	<vg@unice.fr>

	* Extensions/base64.c: New file which provides base64 file
 	encoding and decoding (base64-encoding and base64-decoding)

	* Lib/base64.stk: New file which load the base64 extension. It
 	also provides the functions (base64-encoding-string and
 	base64-decoding-string)

1998-07-19  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/cont.c (STk_throw): Bug correction: continuation escape
 	procedures couldn't take an arbitrary number of arguments. Thanks
 	to Michael N. Livshin <mike@olan.com> for the patch.


1998-07-17  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Makefile.in: Modified so that all the install paths are relative
 	to the value of "prefix". This seems to be useful for people using
 	STOW. Suggestion made by Michael N. Livshin <mike@olan.com>.

1998-07-15  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Extensions/hash.c (hash_table_put): Another bug in the hash
 	table is corrected. Code for putting values in hash tables whose
 	hash function is given by the user has been rewritten. Thanks to
 	Brian Denheyer <briand@northwest.com> for pointing this bug.

1998-07-14  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Suppression of the background bitmap for the Web pages. It was
 	not easily readable on 8bits displays. Even HTML is hard to port !!

1998-06-27  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Doc/Reference/Appendix-F.tex: Correction of a "bug" for the
 	emacs auto-mode-alist variable initialization (signalled by
	craig dry <ra0531@email.sps.mot.com>)

1998-06-09  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Release 3.99.2

1998-06-03  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Src/port.c (STk_read_line): Iconcorrect behaviour when a file is
 	not ended by a newline (thanks to Shiro Kawai
 	<shiro@sqush.squareusa.com>)

1998-06-02  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* Tcl/tcl.h: Added a dumb field to the Tcl_Obj type for AIX cc
	compiler (thanks to Eric Fintzel <tpfintz@fr.ibm.com>)

	* Src/dynload.c : Added fake functions STk_call_external,
 	STk_external_existsp and STk_cstring2string for systems without
 	dynamic loading. Patch proposed by Eric Fintzel <tpfintz@fr.ibm.com>
	and Ron Lawrence <lawrence@chrysalis.com>.

	* Extensions/stk-genmake.in: File added. This script file can be
 	used to build a Makefile for extensions. It constructs a Makefile
 	which uses exactly the same options and compiler that was used to
 	build the interpreter.

	* Extensions/%README: Updated.

1998-06-01  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* STklos/Tk/Basics.stklos: Added exportations of <Tk-object> and
 	tk-constructor.

	* STklos/Tk/Tk-meta.stklos: Added exportation of
 	compute-tk-virtual-get-n-set.

1998-05-31  Erick Gallesio  <eg@unice.fr>

	* STklos/stklos.stk (ensure-clas
