2003-11-17  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.de>

	* scheme-modules.texi: Document '@' and '@@'.

	* scripts.texi: Mention that "-e (@ ...)" also works.

2003-11-15  Kevin Ryde  <user42@zip.com.au>

	* scheme-data.texi (Random): Add *random-state* variable, put note at
	the top of the node about it being the default, rather than just in
	the description of random.

2003-11-13  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.de>

	* preface.texi (Manual Layout): Wrap POSIX, API, and SLIB in
	@acronym.  Change from paragraph format (somewhat clumsy-looking
	on paper, at least) to @table format, with headers @strong.  Made
	example modules complete sentences.  From Stephen Compall, thanks!

2003-11-09  Kevin Ryde  <user42@zip.com.au>

	* misc-modules.texi (Pretty Printing): Add new keyword options, break
	example to avoid long line.

	* scheme-data.texi (Random): In random, use @code for *random-state*.
	Reported by Stephen Compall.

	* srfi-modules.texi (SRFI-1 Filtering and Partitioning): Move filter
	and filter! ...
	* scheme-compound.texi (List Modification): ... to here, now that
	they're implemented in the core.

	* gh.texi, data-rep.texi: Moved `@deftyp {Data type} SCM' line
	from gh.texi to data-rep.texi.  Both files already had similar

	up `SCM' in the index should take one to the primary location
	rather than deprecated section.  Hence this change.  Added
	`@deftp' for scm_t_bits data type so that a proper index entry is
	added for this.  Thanks to Richard Y. Kim!
	
	* data-rep.texi (Subrs): Changed scm_make_gsubr to
	scm_c_define_gsubr.  Thanks to Richard Y. Kim!

	prior to this date was contained in a single directory.
