"pathname" |
First element is character other than #\< #\> #\|Treat entire string as a path name of file. If a file with the given name already exists on output procedure, the result is unspecified. |
"<pathname" |
First element is #\<Valid on input procedure. Treat susbstring starting from the second character as a path name of file. |
">pathname" |
First element is #\> and second is not #\>Valid on output procedure. Treat substring starting from the second character as a path name of file. If a file with the given name already exists, overwrite it. |
">>pathname" |
First element is #\> and second is #\>Valid on output procedure. Treat substring starting from the third character as a path name of file. If a file with the given name already exists, append to it. |
"|command" |
Frist element is #\|Treat substring starting from the second character as a command string. On input procedure, resulting port inputs from its standard output. On output procedure, resulting port outputs to its standard input. Exit status can be retrieved by rp:file-status (see below.) |
Because whether the string is for input or for output is determined by the
procedure it is supplied for, pipe symbol is always put on the head. Notice
that the syntax is different from that in perl in this point.
General
(gensym) procedure
(rp:symbol-value symbol [default-value]) procedure
symbol (in the toplevel environment.)
If symbol is unbound,
default-value is returned. If one is not
supplied, return value in that case is unspecified.
This is intended to be used to implement features such as property list
seen in other lisp dialects. Mixing the usage of symbol as a variable
on program and the usage of rp:symbol-value is discouraged.
(rp:symbol-value-set! symbol value) procedure
value of symbol
(in the toplevel environment.) See note on rp:symbol-value.
(rp:symbol-bound? symbol) procedure
#t if symbol is bound in the
toplevel environment, otherwise returns #f.
(rp:symbol-aux-datum-set! symbol obj) procedure
obj to
symbol. This value can be retrieved by
rp:symbol-aux-datum aftarwards.
(rp:symbol-aux-datum symbol [default-value]) procedure
symbol by
rp:symbol-aux-datum-set!. If no value is associated,
default-value is returned if one is specified.
(rp:symbol-aux-datum-assigned? symbol) procedure
#t if rp:symbol-aux-datum-set!
was applied to symbol, otherwise returns
#f.
(break [prompt]) procedure
Prompt is given
as string. If it is not supplied, defaults to "break> ".
(continue) procedure
continue is unbound if break loop is
not executing.
(rp:object->string object) procedure
object
as string.
(rp:string->object string) procedure
string.
(rp:locally ((var val) ...) (cleanup ...) body ...) syntax
val are bound to
var as in let,
expressions in body are evaluated.
When last expression of body returns or
exit by error in evaluationg body,
expressions in cleanup are evaluated
in the scope of binding. If all expressions in
body returned,
last value become the value of expression.
(rp:char-dbcs-lead-byte? char) procedure
char is first byte of double
byte charecter. Criterion depends on operating system and user
environment settings. Of cource, this procedure makes sence only for
encoding systems in which all multibyte characters consists of exactly
two bytes.
(rp:dbg-set-flag symbol value) procedure
values to
symbol.
Value can be retrieved by rp:dbg-debugging? procedure.
This is intended to be used for managing global flags which
affect expansion of some macros or execution of programs.
(rp:dbg-debugging? symbol) procedure
symbol by
rp:dbg-set-flag procedure.
If no values is associated, returns #f by default.
(rp:eval-in-compiler-environment expression) syntax
(rp:load-into-compiler-environment file) syntax
(load file) on
interpreter. Put in toplevel, file will be loaded to the environment
of compiler when compiled. So the content of the file will affect the
compilation process insted of included in the output code.
(rp:use-macro-package file) syntax
file from several directories and load it
as in rp:load-into-compiler-environment. Search order is
-mpath option
RHIZOME_MACRO_PATH
RHIZOME_LIB
rp:*macro-search-list*, so search order is controlled by
assigning arbitrary value to this.
(exit [exit-code]) procedure
exit-code as status. Default of
exit-code is 0.
(system string) procedure
system() in the standard library and returns its
vaule.
(getenv string) procedure
string.

(rp:strerror errono) procedure
strerror(errno) in
standard library.
(rp:load-compiled-module module) procedure
module which is created by -loadable
option of pisl.
(rp:identify-platform) procedure
(rp:catch-error procedure expression) syntax
procedure. The result must be a
procedure with two arguments. Next, evaluate
expression and return its vaule. If error is
caused in evaluating expression,
procedure is called in the form
(procedure error-code obj)and the vaule will be the value of entire form. The error processing environment consists a part of continuation.
(rp:call-with-error-handler error-proc thunk) procedure
(rp:catch-error procedure expression)
is implemented as a macro expanded to the following.
(rp:call-with-error-handler error-proc (lambda () expression))
(rp:error-message error-code obj) procedure
(rp:print-error-message error-code obj [port]) procedure
port
(default is current-output-port.)
(rp:exception (type arg ...) message-proc) syntax
(arg ...).
If this procedure gets called, exception of type
(type arg ...) is generated.
Type must be a symbol,
message-proc must be evaluated
(in the environment where (arg ...)
is bound to arguments) yielding an one argument procedure.
When error message of the exception is needed,
result of message-proc is called with an output
port as argument and it must generate appropriate message on that port.
(rp:displatch-exception error-code obj ((error-type arg ...) action ...) ...) syntax
Error-code and obj
are arguments of error
handling procedure obtained via rp:call-with-error-handler.
Clause with matching type is selected and its action is executed in the
environment where (arg ...) is bound to data of
exception. Result of last expression of action
will returned.(default error-code obj)
matches any type of error.(rp:os-error errno) |
function call results in error |
(rp:read-syntax-error message) |

(rp:port-procedure-error) |
illegal behavior of port procedure |
(rp:read-only-var-error var) |
value of variable is immutable |
rp:exception-error matches all exception
generated via rp:exception.
(rp:try-except expression ((error-type arg ...) action ...) ...) syntax
Expression is evaluated and its value will be
returned. If error is cuased while evaluation, it will be handled as in
rp:dispatch-exception.
(rp:raise-os-error errno) procedure
(rp:os-error errno).
(rp:set-signal-handler signal procedure) procedure
Signal is a signal numberd by system,
procedure is a procedure with one argument or
#t or #f. If signal
is raised, procedure is called as
(procedure signal)No particular restriction is imposed on the behavior of this
procedure. If procedure
is #t, the default action is restored. If
procedure is #f,
signal will be ignored. Vaule is the previous signal handler.
(rp:signal-message signal) procedure
(rp:print-signal-message signal [port]) procedure
port
(default is current-output-port.)
(rp:raise-signal signal) procedure
(rp:current-error-port) procedure
stderr.
(rp:set-current-input-port [port]) procedure
(rp:set-current-output-port [port]) procedure
current-input-port, current-output-port
respectively. If the argument is omitted, the original one at
invocation is restored.
(open-input-string string) procedure
string.
(open-output-string) procedure
(get-output-string port) procedure
Port must be a output port made by
rp:open-output-string. Retrieves string consisting of
characters outputted to the port so far.
(rp:open-input-procedure procs) procedure
Procs is a vector with four
elements, say
#(getchar ungetchar getlinecount char-readyp)Each element is a procedure. Doing a input from resulting port causes invocation of
getchar.
(getchar) => (char . procs')
procs' is a vector simillar to
procs (simillar in the following,) say
#(getchar' ungetchar' getlinecount' char-readyp')If
char is a character, it will be a charecter
read from the port. If char is a list of form
(error-code obj) where elements are
ones given as arguments of error handling procedure, input lasts with a
error of same type.
If char is #f, port is effectively
in a end-of-file status. In the next usage of port,
procs' will be used.Ungetchar gets called as
(ungetchar char) => procs'Here,
(getchar') => (char . procs''), procs == procs''
is expected.Getlinecount gets called as
(getlinecount) => (linecount . procs')
linecount is a integer, treated as a line
number when getlinecount is called. In particular, if it was 0, it means
the line number is not applicable.
Char-readyp gets called as
(char-readyp) => (ready? . procs')If
ready? is a Boolean value, it will be a
vaule of char-ready? of that port.
If it is a list of form (error-code obj),
error of that type is caused.
Note: In the duration of execution of these procedures, the port will be unusable. So, in particular, errors should not be generated. Errorneous conditions should be reported to the mechanism which calls the procedure via the interface above. The effect is unpreditable if an instance of invocation of these procedures returns multiple times.
(rp:open-output-procedure proc) procedure
Proc is a procedure.
Doing a output to resulting port causes invocation of
proc in the form
(proc char) => (result . proc')
Char is a character to be outputted.
If result is #t, the output is assumed to be done normally.
If result is a list of form (error-code obj),
error of that type will be generated.
In the next usage of port, proc' will be used.
The same note is applied as rp:open-output-procedure.
(rp:file-status port) procedure
Port must be a port result from
open-output-file or open-input-file.
The following vaules are returned accroding to the status of
port at closing time.
#f |
Port is not closed yet. |
| Generates a error | Underlying close operation (flose or pclose) returned -1. |
| Integer vaule | Return vaule other than -1 of underlying close operation (fclose of pclose.) |

(rp:create-channel proc) procedure
Proc is a procedure with one argument.
This gets called with an argument (say rcv here),
which is a procedure with no arguments. This call shall never return.
Call to rp:create-channel itself returns a procedure
(say snd here).
Calling snd results in a call to
rcv returning its argument as value.
(rp:with-channel-as-input-port proc) procedure
Proc is a procedure with one argument.
This gets called with an argument
(say port here), which is an input port.
This call shall never return.
Call to rp:with-channel-as-input-port itself
returns a procedure (say snd here).
Calling snd results in
port acts as follows.
(snd c) : c is a charecter |
Input c is generated. |
(snd (error-code obj)) |
Error is generated. |
(snd 'eof) |
Become end-of-file. |
(snd 'newline) |
Advance line counter. |
(snd #t) |
Char-ready? become true. |
(snd #f) |
Char-ready? become false. |
(rp:with-output-port-as-channel proc) procedure
Proc is a procedure with one argument.
This gets called with an argument (say rcv here).
This call shall never return.
Call to rp:with-output-port-as-channel itself
returns an output port (say port here).
Charecters output through port are retrieved by
calling rcv.
(rp:define-generic (name this . args) exp ...) syntax
name as a method. If at lease one
expression exists in place of exp,
default action is to call
(lambda (this . args) exp ...).
When no exp exists,
default action raises error of type
(rp:no-method name obj),
where name is the name of method and
obj is the object to which method is applied.
(rp:object-constructor ((ancestor init) ...) ((operation this . arg) exp ...) ...) syntax
Ancestor names base
object and bound to the value results from evaluating corresponding
init. Operation is
method defined by rp:define-generic.
When the method is called, corresponding procedure
(lambda (this . arg) exp ...) is applied.
(rp:proxy ancestor operation) procedure
operation to the base object
ancestor.
