+Fri Jan 13 15:05:29 1984 by jkf
+ the 68k version will now record function argument
+ counts for lambdas. It still doesn't do lexprs (even those
+ with &optional and &rest forms).
+
+Wed Dec 7 16:13:08 1983 by sklower
+ changed profiling code to refer to mcnts instead of
+ mcounts so that the C variable could be so renamed
+ to make sure that all names are distinguishable
+ in the first 6 characters. This change is invisible
+ to users.
+
+Tue Nov 22 08:59:34 1983 by jkf
+ added the -W switch. After compilation (but before assembly)
+ it aborts the compilation with an error status if there were
+ any warnings.
+ (now: version 8.39)
+
+Tue Oct 25 14:45:48 1983 by jkf
+ fixed it so that if a lisp error occurs when compiling a function,
+ the name of the function being compiled will be printed
+ (now: version 8.38)
+
+Mon Oct 10 07:42:54 1983 by jkf
+ fixed bug in liszt (tlev)
+ (now: version 8.37)
+
+Sat Jul 30 15:37:40 1983 by layer
+ open code vset. Move all vector stuff to vector.l.
+ Files: func.l, decl.l, vector.l, and cmake.l
+ (now: version 8.33)
+
+Mon Jul 25 21:29:54 PDT 1983 by layer
+ fixed 'liszt' to mung object file header for the sun
+ File: tlev.l
+ (now: version 8.32)
+
+Mon Jul 25 07:05:49 1983 by jkf
+ fix bug whereby -mr would cause an 'comma not in backquote error'
+ because the escape character was / instead of \ when reading
+ /usr/lib/lisp/autorun.xxx
+ (now: version 8.31)
+
+Sat Jun 25 13:28:10 1983 by jkf
+ Turn off uctolc converstion before printing bindtab.
+ This is useful for liszt in opus 38.65 and greater since it
+ will eliminate unnecessary |'s in the bindtab if uctolc
+ is need to compile the file
+ (now: version 8.29)
+
+Thu Jun 16 21:52:59 1983 by jkf
+ fixed compilation of &aux for vax version. Now &aux (foo foo)
+ will work if foo is special.
+ (now: version 8.28)
+
+Wed May 4 18:32:46 1983 by layer
+ added sun autorun header to io.l
+ (now: version 8.27)
+
+Thu Mar 24 08:24:53 1983 by jkf
+ -x file will now be placed in the same place as the output
+ file (instead of the input file).

+Sat Mar 19 17:49:18 1983 by jkf
+ mixed in the 68k liszt source.
+ (now: version 8.24)
+
+Mon Mar 14 13:14:26 1983 by jkf
+ liszt used to open code 'times' if all operands were fixnums.
+ Thus (times 256 256 256 256) would open code to a 0 fixnum.
+ This is clearly wrong and liszt will now not convert times, add,
+ etc to their fixnum equivalents. If you want fixnum semantics
+ then you must use fixnums.
+ Another bug was fixed: d-functyp would return the wrong thing
+ give a name bound to a foreign function. now it returns 'lambda.
+ files affected: datab.l decl.l
+ (now: version 8.23)
+
+Tue Feb 22 08:43:44 1983 by jkf
+ force jump to vecindexerr to use 'jmp', since the object
+ file might be large and the assembler is stupid
+ (now: version 8.22)
+
+Thu Feb 10 20:39:42 1983 by jkf
+ open coded vectorp and vectorip, vsize-...
+ (now: version 8.21)
+
+Thu Jan 20 01:57:01 1983 by layer
+ Added three features to liszt command line processing:
+ -e <expr> evaluates <expr> before compilation.
+ -i <filename> loads <filename> before compilation.
+ -S -o filename names .s file.
+ file: tlev.l
+ (now: version 8.20)
+
+Mon Jan 17 09:41:12 1983 by jkf
+ added arg number checking and open coded &keywords.
+ (now: version 8.19)
+
+Sun Jan 16 10:05:01 1983 by jkf
+ fixed nasty bug in d-exp which would show up if a macro
+ returned a recursive call it itself
+ (now: version 8.18)
+
+Wed Jan 12 10:43:53 1983 by jkf
+ added open coding of vref functions
+ (now: version 8.17)
+
+Wed Oct 27 20:24:47 1982 by jkf
+ removed references to sys_ functions, replaced them with
+ sys: functions so code will be more portable.
+ file: tlev.l
+
+Wed Oct 27 08:15:14 1982 by jkf
+ discovered that making 'declare' a function is a bad idea because
+ if the compiler executes an interpreted function with local
+ declarations, those local declarations will seem like declarations
+ for the function begin compiled. Thus declare is no longer a
+ special function in the compiler: it must be seen by the compiler
+ to have an effect. Added the user callable function liszt-declare
+ which will have an effect just like declare used to: the compiler
+ will recognize it when compiling and it can be evaluated by a
+ user function.
+ (now: version 8.16)
+
+Mon Oct 25 22:55:37 1982 by jkf
+ removed If macro definition from cmacros.l . It is now in
+ the default franz.
+
+Mon Oct 25 09:15:18 1982 by jkf
+ catch the sigterm signal and die after removing the /tmp file.
+ (now: version 8.15)
+
+Tue Oct 19 15:56:07 1982 by jkf
+ fixed bugin cc-arg wherein a (arg (foo)) would be compiled
+ incorrectly (it was calling zerop on a non number).
+ Added checks for cmacro and macro-autoload properties.
+ When doing macro expansion, had it stop if the same car
+ was returned.
+ (now: version 8.14)
+
+Mon Oct 18 23:27:14 1982 by layer
+ Fixed bug in function cc-quote. Parens in an If statement
+ were messed up.
+
+Sat Oct 9 04:35:23 PDT 1982 by layer
+ Np-reg, Lbot-reg, oLbot-reg are now constants. Changes
+ made to expr.l and io.l.
+
+Thu Oct 7 01:02:26 1982 by jkf
+ fixed bug in the compiler. The compiler had neglected to enforce
+ the rule that 'macros' not be defined as local functions.
+ Now that is checked (modification to tlev.l).
+
+Wed Oct 6 22:53:36 1982 by jkf
+ added check to make sure that a file doesn't declare a function
+ to be local that has already had a compiled call made to it.
+ This is done by placing a t under indicator g-stdref for all
+ symbols called in the 'standard' way.
+ (now: version 8.13)
+
+Wed Oct 6 13:29:27 PDT 1982 by layer
+ put the loading of chead.l (in array.l datab.l decl.l expr.l
+ fixnum.l funa.l funb.l func.l io.l tlev.l util.l) under
+ include-if control. Also changed chead.l.
+
+Tue Oct 5 23:36:09 PDT 1982 by layer
+ removed function d-call from expr.l, since it isn't
+ used anymore.
+
+Tue Oct 5 23:00:09 PDT 1982 by layer
+ added sccs'ed file scmake.l, so that an all interp'd
+ version of the compiler can be made without deleting
+ all the .o files. Changes were also make to the Makefile.
+ snliszt (formerly slownliszt) now depends on source
+ files (like nliszt depends on .o files).
+
+Tue Oct 5 22:22:59 1982 by jkf
+ added argument checking. This involved mods to expr.l to
+ do the checking and to tlev.l to save argument number
+ info while compiling. The file /usr/lib/lisp/fcninfo.l
+ contains a description of what is known about C functions.
+ (now: version 8.12)
+
+Mon Oct 4 14:23:29 1982 by jkf
+ turn off [load ...] message when loading in lisztrc file
+
+Tue Sep 28 09:30:36 1982 by jkf
+ change tmp file name back to jkfnnnnn
+ (now: version 8.11)
+
+Wed Jul 21 13:43:56 PDT 1982 by layer
+ function "liszt" in tlev.l now returns the true assembler exit
+ status (if the compile goes that far).
+
+Sat Jul 3 18:01:25 1982 by jkf
+ open code getaux and getaccess
+ (now: version 8.10)
+
+Wed Jun 30 18:58:32 1982 by jkf
+ look for liszt rc files without extensions. now we look in
+ 12 places for the lisp init file:
+ { . , $HOME } { .lisztrc , lisztrc } { .o , .l , }
+ (now: version 8.09)
+
+Thu May 27 08:19:00 1982 by jkf
+ fixed bug in d-fixnump which caused liszt to assume too often that
+ arguments are all fixnums
+ (now: version 8.08)
+
+Wed May 12 13:46:03 1982 by jkf
+ new declaration scheme died when the object being declared
+ was a list. e.g (declare (fixnum (foo fixnum flonum)).
+ Fixed declare-handler so that cases like this are ignored.
+ (now: version 8.07)
+
+Fri May 7 19:28:04 1982 by jkf
+ allow (function (nlambda ()...)) and (function (lambda () ..))
+ (now: version 8.06)
+
+Thu May 6 15:03:50 1982 by jkf
+ support local declarations. They are stacked on g-decls.
+ localf and macarray don't fit in too well, they should
+ be fixed.
+ fixnum declarations now have meaning. They will allow the
+ compiler to convert from functions like 'add1' to 1+.
+ 'declare' is now a function in the compiler so declarations
+ may be fasl'ed in. [this was removed Oct 27, 1982]
+
+Thu Apr 22 20:48:25 1982 by jkf
+ #' returns a symbol now, instead of the getd of the symbol.
+ This was required for maclisp compatibility.
+ (now: version 8.05)
+
+Wed Apr 21 07:50:41 1982 by jkf
+ load in init file before compiling. look in . first, then $HOME.
+ look for .liszt.o, .lisztrc.l, lisztrc.o, lisztrc.l
+
+ Upon interrupt, remove temp file and exit
+ (now: version 8.04)
+
+Mon Apr 12 23:22:37 1982 by jkf
+ open code 'function'. Now it will cause another function to be
+ generated and compiled and the function call returns the
+ bcd header for the newly created function
+ liszt-process-forms may be filled with forms to compile while
+ compiling a form. Unlike liszt-eof-forms, liszt-process-forms
+ are compiled at the next opportunity.
+ (now: version 8.03)
+
+Wed Mar 31 08:47:46 1982 by jkf
+ fixed bug in which (> (or nil 9) 0) would return true. cc-eq
+ now rebinds g-trueop and g-falseop. (now: version 8.02)
+
+Wed Mar 31 08:24:27 1982 by jkf
+ added a new file to liszt: lversion.l It is not sccsed and it
+ just contains the version number. This will allow the version
+ number to be changed with ease whenever a modification is made.
+ start it at 8.01 (now: version 8.01)
+
+Fri Mar 19 11:17:12 1982 by jkf
+ did distribution. (now: version 8.00)
+
+Fri Feb 19 09:56:50 1982 by jkf
+ fixed e-docomment so that newlines in the comment will not
+ cause assembler problems [io.l]
+
+Wed Feb 17 12:46:24 1982 by jkf
+ to version 8.0 (to correspond with Opus 38)
+
+Wed Feb 10 21:28:41 1982 by jkf
+ fixed a bug in the return function and a possible bug in go.
+ both bugs have to do with returning or going through a
+ catch or errset, which is a pretty strange thing to do anyway.
+ The fix was to keep track of the number of catches and errsets
+ before the prog to be returned from or gone into.
+ I modified d-pushframe to always push 3 args, so we can know
+ how long each frame we pop will be.
+Sat Dec 5 11:58:36 1981 by jkf
+ open coded boole (mods to decl.l and funa.l). used the open
+ coding capability of fixnums.
+ Added three internal functions fixnum-BitXor, fixnum-BitAndNot
+ fixnum-BitOr, which are the three functions which the vax
+ can do.
+Mon Oct 26 21:15:36 1981 by jkf
+ fixed bug in d-supercxr (funa.l) which made this function
+ (cond ((setq y (cxr n zip)) (print 'hi))
+ (t (print 'lo)))
+ always prints 'hi'. The problem was that only jump on true was
+ checked if the value of a cxr was stored somewhere. In the case
+ above we want to jump on nil.
+
+Sat Oct 24 16:41:03 1981 by jkf
+ -*- to version 7.1 -*-
+ Added the 'a' option to liszt, which if set will cause a
+ special form to be output after a function is defined. that special
+ form will put a 'fcn-info' property on the function's property
+ list. the form of the fcn-info property is
+ (argdesc compileinfo)
+ argdesc may be nil or (x . y), the later meaning that there are a
+ minumum of x args required and a maximum of y. Currently lexprs
+ just put 'nil' there, but soon I will introduce a way to declare
+ min and max args for lexprs via a declare. The compileinfo
+ is a string saying what file this came from and when it was
+ compiled.
+
+Wed Oct 21 20:19:53 1981 by jkf
+ added functions <&, =&, and >& which are fixnum only
+ versions of <,= and >.
+
+Tue Oct 20 22:14:41 1981 by jkf
+ fix < and > compiling so that they are only open coded if
+ we can be sure that both operands are fixnums. For now this
+ amounts to checking that one of the operands is a fixnum.
+ We should augment to this check also for type declarations.
+
+Sat Oct 17 11:47:50 1981 by jkf
+ since most fixnums are in the range 0 to 1023 we can probably
+ win by doing inline checking in that range. Thus I've added
+ the function d-fixnumbox which does an inline reboxing if
+ the number is between 0 and 1023 and otherwise calls qnewint.
+ The file changed was fixnum.l
+
+Thu Oct 8 23:35:34 1981 by jkf
+ added cc-= to open code = if possible. It looks for a fixnum
+ as one of the arguments and converts the = expression to
+ (eq (cdr ..) (cdr ..)) which should do the trick.
+
