making the empty vector a singleton
removing syntax environment stuff from core
reimplementing eval using the compiler
fixing a couple bugs in long argument lists
various bug fixes
language changes:
• constant symbols no longer shadow everything
• eval* removed
• vararg lists always allocated on entry, dotted argument
lists not preserved
new applyn() entry point
changing another recursive call to goto
adding special cases in compiler for 0 and 1 argument versions of some
vararg builtins
beginning implementation of bytecode interpreter
so recursion depth is limited only by the process stack limit.
reorganizing evaluator so the same code is used for evaluating
and pushing arguments for both builtin functions and lambdas.
for now this is slower, but it was done in preparation for
Things To Come.
adding list-head
implementing the calling convention for long argument lists in
bytecode compiler. arguments are broken down into a nest of
list and nconc calls.
also implementing vararg builtins.
accepting r6rs IEEE literals +-nan.0 and +-inf.0
printing distinguished -0.0, indicating float with .0f instead
of #float, double with .0 instead of #double
more renaming (? on predicates, ! on mutating operators)
changing T to #t :( all those #s are so ugly
porting code to sort out which NILs are false and which are
empty lists
switching to scheme-style special forms. however you feel about
scheme names vs. CL names, using both is silly.
mostly switching to scheme predicate names, with compatibility
aliases for now. adding set-constant! to make this efficient.
adding null?, eqv?, assq, assv, assoc, memq, memv, member
adding 2-argument form of if
allowing else as final cond condition
looking for init file in same directory as executable, so flisp
can be started from anywhere
renaming T to FL_T, since exporting a 1-character symbol is
not very nice
adding opaque type boilerplate example file
adding correctness checking for the pattern-lambda benchmark
bugfix in int2str
• eliminated bad behavior near screen edge, added wrapping
• added behavior: indent after some number of non-indented elements
• indent after head symbols with really long names
• don't indent after first argument to setq
improvements to cps converter
• correctly dispatch to non-cps functions
• handle vararg lambdas in head position
