Hi.

Here is a new snapshot of Guile and some related sources.

This snapshot fixes those bugs that were reported for the previous
snapshot.  

Bugs in this release should be reported to "lord@cygnus.com".

A volunteer task list can be found in the file "PENDING".  Help build
the GNU Web Browser!

This snapshot includes some new features.  Among these are:

	o More Documentation

	   The manual has expanded and now includes a section on
	   the internals of the interpreter. 


	o Tcl/Tk support

	   You can link with a (slightly) modified libtcl and libtk
	   either to make Tcl programs extensible in Scheme, or to
	   write user interfaces in Scheme using the Tk widget set.
	   It means that you can use any Tcl command module from 
	   Scheme, almost always without modification.

	  
	o A demo: Gwish

	  Gwish is a wish-like application that demonstrates the new
	  Tcl/Tk support.  Included is a Scheme version of a simple
	  graph editor originally written in Tcl, and an autokad system.

	  Gwish is based on STk and demonstrates the new capability
 	  of using anonymous Scheme procedures for bindings and widget
	  callbacks.

	  
	o System Calls

	  The system call interface is now reasonably complete.
	  Guile has enough raw materials to support a full implementation
 	  of Scsh, if volunteers want to work on one.

	  
	o Gscsh

	  The beginning of an scsh-like library for Guile.
	  

	o Another demo: The Ctax Interpreter

	  The beginning of a C-like syntax for Scheme.


	o Java-related tools

	  This snapshot contains a variety of Java-related tools
	  for hackers.  The Scheme source can be found in the subdirectory
	  "latte".  The interpreter C source includes a byte-code interperter
	  and a an efficient extensible object system called "structs".


Information about the Tcl/Tk support, system call interface, and gscsh
can be found in the info file "guile-ii/guile/scm.info".  The demos
can be found in "guile-ii/guile/demos".

The snapshot consists of a number of directories.  These are:


	guile-ii/   	 # the directory containing this file
	guile-ii/rx  	 # the rx pattern matcher
	guile-ii/guile   # sources for libguile and guile
	guile-ii/demos   # sources for libguile and guile
	guile-ii/gtcl    # a slightly modified version of Tcl
	guile-ii/gtk     # a slightly modified version of Tk
	guile-ii/slib	 # a slightly expanded version of 
			   a popular Scheme library.
	guile-ii/latte	 # Some tools relating to the bytecode
			   interpreter and to the language Java.
