Import Debian changes 3a2-1debian/3a2-1
slib (3a2-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release. * Acknowledge NMU. (Closes: #281809) * Makefile: Don't hack Makefile; use rules instead. * debian/rules: Set on make invocations: prefix, htmldir, TEXI2HTML. * debian/rules (clean): Clean more stuff here. * Makefile: Comment out old rule for $(htmldir)slib_toc.html. Instead, specify directly that the texi2html invocation produces that file. * debian/rules (binary-indep): Find web files in slib subdir. * debian/control (Build-Depends-Indep): Go back to using scm.

-An output conversion specifications consist of an initial `<SAMP>%</SAMP>'
-character followed in sequence by:
-</P>
-<P>
-
-<UL>
-<LI>
-Zero or more <EM>flag characters</EM> that modify the normal behavior of
-the conversion specification.
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<DL COMPACT>
-<DT>`<SAMP>-</SAMP>'
-<DD>Left-justify the result in the field. Normally the result is
-right-justified.
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<DT>`<SAMP>+</SAMP>'
-<DD>For the signed `<SAMP>%d</SAMP>' and `<SAMP>%i</SAMP>' conversions and all inexact
-conversions, prefix a plus sign if the value is positive.
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<DT>`<SAMP> </SAMP>'
-<DD>For the signed `<SAMP>%d</SAMP>' and `<SAMP>%i</SAMP>' conversions, if the result
-doesn't start with a plus or minus sign, prefix it with a space
-character instead. Since the `<SAMP>+</SAMP>' flag ensures that the result
-includes a sign, this flag is ignored if both are specified.
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<DT>`<SAMP>#</SAMP>'
-<DD>For inexact conversions, `<SAMP>#</SAMP>' specifies that the result should
-always include a decimal point, even if no digits follow it. For the
-`<SAMP>%g</SAMP>' and `<SAMP>%G</SAMP>' conversions, this also forces trailing zeros
-after the decimal point to be printed where they would otherwise be
-elided.
-<P>
-
-For the `<SAMP>%o</SAMP>' conversion, force the leading digit to be `<SAMP>0</SAMP>', as
-if by increasing the precision. For `<SAMP>%x</SAMP>' or `<SAMP>%X</SAMP>', prefix a
-leading `<SAMP>0x</SAMP>' or `<SAMP>0X</SAMP>' (respectively) to the result. This
-doesn't do anything useful for the `<SAMP>%d</SAMP>', `<SAMP>%i</SAMP>', or `<SAMP>%u</SAMP>'
-conversions. Using this flag produces output which can be parsed by the
-<CODE>scanf</CODE> functions with the `<SAMP>%i</SAMP>' conversion (see section <A HREF="slib_4.html#SEC60">4.3.3 Standard Formatted Input</A>).
-</P>
-<P>

-any indication of sign or base. This flag is ignored if the `<SAMP>-</SAMP>'
-flag is also specified, or if a precision is specified for an exact
-converson.
-</DL>
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<LI>
-An optional decimal integer specifying the <EM>minimum field width</EM>.
-If the normal conversion produces fewer characters than this, the field
-is padded (with spaces or zeros per the `<SAMP>0</SAMP>' flag) to the specified
-width. This is a <EM>minimum</EM> width; if the normal conversion
-produces more characters than this, the field is <EM>not</EM> truncated.
-<A NAME="IDX221"></A>
-<P>
-
-Alternatively, if the field width is `<SAMP>*</SAMP>', the next argument in the
-argument list (before the actual value to be printed) is used as the
-field width. The width value must be an integer. If the value is
-negative it is as though the `<SAMP>-</SAMP>' flag is set (see above) and the
-absolute value is used as the field width.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<LI>
-An optional <EM>precision</EM> to specify the number of digits to be
-written for numeric conversions and the maximum field width for string
-conversions. The precision is specified by a period (`<SAMP>.</SAMP>') followed
-optionally by a decimal integer (which defaults to zero if omitted).
-<A NAME="IDX222"></A>
-<P>
-
-Alternatively, if the precision is `<SAMP>.*</SAMP>', the next argument in the
-argument list (before the actual value to be printed) is used as the
-precision. The value must be an integer, and is ignored if negative.
-If you specify `<SAMP>*</SAMP>' for both the field width and precision, the
-field width argument precedes the precision argument. The `<SAMP>.*</SAMP>'
-precision is an enhancement. C library versions may not accept this
-syntax.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-For the `<SAMP>%f</SAMP>', `<SAMP>%e</SAMP>', and `<SAMP>%E</SAMP>' conversions, the precision
-specifies how many digits follow the decimal-point character. The
-default precision is <CODE>6</CODE>. If the precision is explicitly <CODE>0</CODE>,
-the decimal point character is suppressed.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-For the `<SAMP>%g</SAMP>' and `<SAMP>%G</SAMP>' conversions, the precision specifies how
-many significant digits to print. Significant digits are the first
-digit before the decimal point, and all the digits after it. If the
-precision is <CODE>0</CODE> or not specified for `<SAMP>%g</SAMP>' or `<SAMP>%G</SAMP>', it is
-treated like a value of <CODE>1</CODE>. If the value being printed cannot be
-expressed accurately in the specified number of digits, the value is
-rounded to the nearest number that fits.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-For exact conversions, if a precision is supplied it specifies the
-minimum number of digits to appear; leading zeros are produced if
-necessary. If a precision is not supplied, the number is printed with
-as many digits as necessary. Converting an exact `<SAMP>0</SAMP>' with an
-explicit precision of zero produces no characters.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<LI>
-An optional one of `<SAMP>l</SAMP>', `<SAMP>h</SAMP>' or `<SAMP>L</SAMP>', which is ignored for
-numeric conversions. It is an error to specify these modifiers for
-non-numeric conversions.
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<LI>
-A character that specifies the conversion to be applied.

-the scanset, and a right bracket; the input field is the maximal
-sequence of input characters consisting entirely of characters in the
-scanset. `<SAMP>^</SAMP>', when it appears as the first character in the
-scanset, serves as a complement operator and redefines the scanset as
-the set of all characters not contained in the remainder of the scanset
-string. Construction of the scanset follows certain conventions. A
-range of characters may be represented by the construct first-last,
-enabling `<SAMP>[0123456789]</SAMP>' to be expressed `<SAMP>[0-9]</SAMP>'. Using this
-convention, first must be lexically less than or equal to last;
-otherwise, the dash stands for itself. The dash also stands for itself
-when it is the first or the last character in the scanset. To include
-the right square bracket as an element of the scanset, it must appear as
-the first character (possibly preceded by a `<SAMP>^</SAMP>') of the scanset, in
-which case it will not be interpreted syntactically as the closing
-bracket. At least one character must match for this conversion to
-succeed.

-<P>
-
-The <CODE>scanf</CODE> functions terminate their conversions at end-of-file,
-at the end of the control string, or when an input character conflicts
-with the control string. In the latter case, the offending character is
-left unread in the input stream.

-<A NAME="IDX230"></A>
-</P>
-<P>
-
-This routine implements Posix command line argument parsing. Notice
-that returning values through global variables means that <CODE>getopt</CODE>
-is <EM>not</EM> reentrant.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-Obedience to Posix format for the <CODE>getopt</CODE> calls sows confusion.
-Passing <VAR>argc</VAR> and <VAR>argv</VAR> as arguments while referencing
-<VAR>optind</VAR> as a global variable leads to strange behavior,
-especially when the calls to <CODE>getopt</CODE> are buried in other
-procedures.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-Even in C, <VAR>argc</VAR> can be derived from <VAR>argv</VAR>; what purpose
-does it serve beyond providing an opportunity for
-<VAR>argv</VAR>/<VAR>argc</VAR> mismatch? Just such a mismatch existed for
-years in a SLIB <CODE>getopt--</CODE> example.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-I have removed the <VAR>argc</VAR> and <VAR>argv</VAR> arguments to getopt
-procedures; and replaced them with a global variable:
-</P>
-<P>
-
-<A NAME="IDX231"></A>
-</P>
-<DL>
-<DT><U>Variable:</U> <B>*argv*</B>
-<DD>Define <VAR>*argv*</VAR> with a list of arguments before calling getopt
-procedures. If you don't want the first (0th) element to be ignored,
-set <VAR>*optind*</VAR> to 0 (after requiring getopt).
-</DL>
-<P>
-
-<A NAME="IDX232"></A>
-</P>
-<DL>
-<DT><U>Variable:</U> <B>*optind*</B>
-<DD>Is the index of the current element of the command line. It is
-initially one. In order to parse a new command line or reparse an old
-one, <VAR>*optind*</VAR> must be reset.
-</DL>
-<P>
-
-<A NAME="IDX233"></A>
-</P>
-<DL>
-<DT><U>Variable:</U> <B>*optarg*</B>

-<P>
-
-<A NAME="IDX234"></A>
-</P>
-<DL>
-<DT><U>Function:</U> <B>getopt</B> <I>optstring</I>
-<DD>Returns the next option letter in <VAR>*argv*</VAR> (starting from
-<CODE>(vector-ref argv *optind*)</CODE>) that matches a letter in
-<VAR>optstring</VAR>. <VAR>*argv*</VAR> is a vector or list of strings, the 0th
-of which getopt usually ignores. <VAR>optstring</VAR> is a string of
-recognized option characters; if a character is followed by a colon,
-the option takes an argument which may be immediately following it in
-the string or in the next element of <VAR>*argv*</VAR>.
-<P>
-
-<VAR>*optind*</VAR> is the index of the next element of the <VAR>*argv*</VAR> vector
-to be processed. It is initialized to 1 by `<TT>getopt.scm</TT>', and
-<CODE>getopt</CODE> updates it when it finishes with each element of
-<VAR>*argv*</VAR>.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-<CODE>getopt</CODE> returns the next option character from <VAR>*argv*</VAR> that
-matches a character in <VAR>optstring</VAR>, if there is one that matches.
-If the option takes an argument, <CODE>getopt</CODE> sets the variable
-<VAR>*optarg*</VAR> to the option-argument as follows:
-</P>
-<P>
-
-<UL>
-<LI>
-If the option was the last character in the string pointed to by an
-element of <VAR>*argv*</VAR>, then <VAR>*optarg*</VAR> contains the next element
-of <VAR>*argv*</VAR>, and <VAR>*optind*</VAR> is incremented by 2. If the
-resulting value of <VAR>*optind*</VAR> is greater than or equal to
-<CODE>(length <VAR>*argv*</VAR>)</CODE>, this indicates a missing option
-argument, and <CODE>getopt</CODE> returns an error indication.
-<P>
-
-</P>
-<LI>
-Otherwise, <VAR>*optarg*</VAR> is set to the string following the option
-character in that element of <VAR>*argv*</VAR>, and <VAR>*optind*</VAR> is
-incremented by 1.
-</UL>
-<P>
-
-If, when <CODE>getopt</CODE> is called, the string <CODE>(vector-ref argv
-*optind*)</CODE> either does not begin with the character <CODE>#\-</CODE> or is
-just <CODE>&quot;-&quot;</CODE>, <CODE>getopt</CODE> returns <CODE>#f</CODE> without changing
-<VAR>*optind*</VAR>. If <CODE>(vector-ref argv *optind*)</CODE> is the string
-<CODE>&quot;--&quot;</CODE>, <CODE>getopt</CODE> returns <CODE>#f</CODE> after incrementing
-<VAR>*optind*</VAR>.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-If <CODE>getopt</CODE> encounters an option character that is not contained in
-<VAR>optstring</VAR>, it returns the question-mark <CODE>#\?</CODE> character. If
-it detects a missing option argument, it returns the colon character
-<CODE>#\:</CODE> if the first character of <VAR>optstring</VAR> was a colon, or a
-question-mark character otherwise. In either case, <CODE>getopt</CODE> sets
-the variable <VAR>getopt:opt</VAR> to the option character that caused the
-error.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-The special option <CODE>&quot;--&quot;</CODE> can be used to delimit the end of the

-</P>
-<P>
-
-RETURN VALUE
-</P>
-<P>
-
-<CODE>getopt</CODE> returns the next option character specified on the command
-line. A colon <CODE>#\:</CODE> is returned if <CODE>getopt</CODE> detects a missing
-argument and the first character of <VAR>optstring</VAR> was a colon

-<!--docid::SEC87::-->

-
-<A NAME="IDX470"></A>
-<EM>Schmooz</EM> is a simple, lightweight markup language for interspersing
-Texinfo documentation with Scheme source code. Schmooz does not create
-the top level Texinfo file; it creates `<SAMP>txi</SAMP>' files which can be
-imported into the documentation using the Texinfo command
-`<SAMP>@include</SAMP>'.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-<A NAME="IDX471"></A>
-<CODE>(require 'schmooz)</CODE> defines the function <CODE>schmooz</CODE>, which is
-used to process files. Files containing schmooz documentation should
-not contain <CODE>(require 'schmooz)</CODE>.

-<DL>
-<DT><U>Procedure:</U> <B>schmooz</B> <I>filename.scm <small>...</small></I>
-<DD><VAR>Filename</VAR>.scm should be a string ending with `<SAMP>.scm</SAMP>' naming an
-existing file containing Scheme source code. <CODE>schmooz</CODE> extracts
-top-level comments containing schmooz commands from <VAR>filename</VAR>.scm

-<DT><U>Procedure:</U> <B>schmooz</B> <I>filename.txi <small>...</small></I>
-<DD><VAR>Filename</VAR> should be a string naming an existing file containing
-Texinfo source code. For every occurrence of the string `<SAMP>@include
-<VAR>filename</VAR>.txi</SAMP>' within that file, <CODE>schmooz</CODE> calls itself with
-the argument `<SAMP><VAR>filename</VAR>.scm</SAMP>'.
-</P>
-</DL>
-<P>
-
-Schmooz comments are distinguished (from non-schmooz comments) by their
-first line, which must start with an at-sign (@) preceded by one or
-more semicolons (<TT>;</TT>). A schmooz comment ends at the first subsequent
-line which does <EM>not</EM> start with a semicolon. Currently schmooz
-comments are recognized only at top level.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-Schmooz comments are copied to the Texinfo output file with the leading
-contiguous semicolons removed. Certain character sequences starting
-with at-sign are treated specially. Others are copied unchanged.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-A schmooz comment starting with `<SAMP>@body</SAMP>' must be followed by a
-Scheme definition. All comments between the `<SAMP>@body</SAMP>' line and
-the definition will be included in a Texinfo definition, either
-a `<SAMP>@defun</SAMP>' or a `<SAMP>@defvar</SAMP>', depending on whether a procedure
-or a variable is being defined.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-Within the text of that schmooz comment, at-sign
-followed by `<SAMP>0</SAMP>' will be replaced by <CODE>@code{procedure-name}</CODE>
-if the following definition is of a procedure; or
-<CODE>@var{variable}</CODE> if defining a variable.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-An at-sign followed by a non-zero digit will expand to the variable
-citation of that numbered argument: `<SAMP>@var{argument-name}</SAMP>'.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-If more than one definition follows a `<SAMP>@body</SAMP>' comment line
-without an intervening blank or comment line, then those definitions
-will be included in the same Texinfo definition using `<SAMP>@defvarx</SAMP>'
-or `<SAMP>@defunx</SAMP>', depending on whether the first definition is of
-a variable or of a procedure.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-Schmooz can figure out whether a definition is of a procedure if
-it is of the form:
-</P>
-<P>
-
-`<SAMP>(define (&lt;identifier&gt; &lt;arg&gt; ...) &lt;expression&gt;)</SAMP>'
-</P>
-<P>
-
-or if the left hand side of the definition is some form ending in
-a lambda expression. Obviously, it can be fooled. In order to
-force recognition of a procedure definition, start the documentation
-with `<SAMP>@args</SAMP>' instead of `<SAMP>@body</SAMP>'. `<SAMP>@args</SAMP>' should
-be followed by the argument list of the function being defined,
-which may be enclosed in parentheses and delimited by whitespace,
-(as in Scheme), enclosed in braces and separated by commas, (as
-in Texinfo), or consist of the remainder of the line, separated
-by whitespace.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-For example:
-</P>
-<P>
-
-<TABLE><tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td class=example><pre>;;@args arg1 args ...
-;;@0 takes argument @1 and any number of @2
-(define myfun (some-function-returning-magic))
-</pre></td></tr></table><P>
-
-Will result in:
-</P>
-<P>
-
-<TABLE><tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td class=example><pre>@defun myfun arg1 args @dots{}
-
-@code{myfun} takes argument @var{arg1} and any number of @var{args}
-@end defun
-</pre></td></tr></table><P>
-
-`<SAMP>@args</SAMP>' may also be useful for indicating optional arguments
-by name. If `<SAMP>@args</SAMP>' occurs inside a schmooz comment section,
-rather than at the beginning, then it will generate a `<SAMP>@defunx</SAMP>'
-line with the arguments supplied.
-</P>
-<P>
-
-If the first at-sign in a schmooz comment is immediately followed by
-whitespace, then the comment will be expanded to whatever follows that
-whitespace. If the at-sign is followed by a non-whitespace character
-then the at-sign will be included as the first character of the expansion.
-This feature is intended to make it easy to include Texinfo directives
-in schmooz comments.
