45		Tag: blume-20030926-ppautoload
46		Description:
47
48		I modified the read-eval-print loop so that the autoloader gets
49		invoked whenever the prettyprinter tries to look up a symbol that
50		is not currently defined in the toplevel environment but which
51		appears in CM's autoload registry.  As a result, we see far fewer of
52		those ?.Foo.Bar.xxx names in the prettyprinter's output.
53
54		In addition to this I tried to clean up some pieces of the Basis
55		implementation (e.g., Socket, Word8Array) in order to prevent other
56		instances of these ?.Foo.Bar.xxx names from being printed.
57
58		The mechanism that picks names for types still needs some work, though.
59		(Right now it seems that if there is a type A.t which is defined to
60		be B.u, but B is unavailable at toplevel, then A.t gets printed as
61		"?.B.u" although the perhaps more sensible solution would be to use
62		"A.t" in this case.  In other words, the prettyprinter should follow
63		a chain of DEFtycs not farther than there are corresponding toplevel
64		names in the current environment.)

69		Tag: blume-20030924-installer
70		Description:
71
72		Another installer tweak:  All the ML code for the installer is now
73		compiled during CMB.make and put into a little library called
74		$smlnj/installer.cm.  The installation then simply invokes
75
76		sml -m $smlnj/installer.cm
77
78		and everything happens automagically.
79
80		Win32:  ML code senses value of environment variable SMLNJ_HOME.
81		Unix:   ML code senses values of environment variables ROOT, CONFIGDIR,
82		and BINDIR.
83
84		The new scheme guarantees that the ML code responsible for the installation
85		is in sync with the APIs of the main system.  Also, the installer is
86		somewhat faster because the installer script is precompiled.

91		Tag: blume-20030924-synsock
92		Description:
93
94		Added a signature SYNCHRONOUS_SOCKET to basis.cm.  This is like SOCKET
95		but excludes all non-blocking operations.  Defined SOCKET (in Basis)
96		and CML_SOCKET in terms of SYNCHRONOUS_SOCKET.  Removed superfluous
97		implementations of non-blocking operations from CML's Socket
98		structure.
