Greetings hackers,
I am pleased to announce that Guile-Lib 0.1.6 has been released. It
may be obtained at:
http://download.gna.org/guile-lib/guile-lib-0.1.6.tar.gz
What is Guile-Lib
-----------------
Guile-Lib is intended as an accumulation place for pure-scheme Guile
modules, allowing for people to cooperate integrating their generic
Guile modules into a coherent library. Think "a down-scaled,
limited-scope CPAN for Guile".
What's new
----------
* New module: (apicheck).
Apicheck implements one function to describe a set of modules' API as an
s-expression, and another to verify the s-expression against the current
API.
* New module: (sxml fold).
(sxml fold) defines a number of fold-based XML transformation operators.
* Improved support for parsing Texinfo.
(texinfo) now parses the arguments of the @deffnx family of commands.
Added support for parsing the inline commands @b, @i, @r, @sansserif,
@slanted, @t, and @tie.
* Better automatic documentation via (texinfo reflection).
Generic functions are now documented along with all of their methods.
Documentation for methods is now taken from their procedure
implementation.
Documentation produced with `module-stexi-documentation' may now be
filtered or elided via a user-supplied procedure. This allows procedures
defined in C to have their documentation supplied from a source that is
not a docstring or an object property, for example from docs snarfed
from the C source, or from docs written in a separate texinfo file.
Procedures documented by `module-stexi-documentation' are now ordered in
the order in which they appear in the module's export list, if it is
possible to obtain this information.
* Limited support for transforming Docbook to Texinfo.
(texinfo docbook) defines procedures for parsing docbook into SXML,
flattening that SXML into a form more like STEXI, and a stylesheet for
transforming a limited subset of that SXML into STEXI. The stylesheet
may be extended by user code in order to support more docbook elements.
* Guile-Lib now has API regression tests.
Using Apicheck, we now know the exact interface exported by Guile-Lib,
so that there will be no unintentional breakages in the future.
* Bugfixes
See the ChangeLog for details on fixes to (sxml ssax input-parse) and
(string wrap).
Happy hacking,
Andy
