post Released Cyclone Scheme 0.6.3 This release contains many bugfixes from wasamasa and a compiler optimization for numerical operations based on a post from the CHICKEN hackers mailing list.

Features

  • Allow the compiler to optimize calls to +, -, *, and / that accept more than 2 arguments.
  • Added support for bignums to bitwise-if from SRFI 60.

Bug Fixes

  • Fix read-line to remove trailing carriage return and/or newline characters. Thanks to wasamasa for the bug report!
  • String ports created by open-input-string returned an extra garbage byte. This has been fixed by a patch from wasamasa.
  • Prevent segfaults when allocating large strings using make-string.
  • Added a fix from wasamasa to escape double quotation marks in strings when output via write.
  • wasamasa patched read-string to return EOF when no characters can be read.
