	* MANIFEST, Types_pm.in, assemble.pl, basic_opcodes.ops,
	disassemble.pl, packfile.c, pdump.c, process_opfunc.pl,
	Parrot/Assembler.pm, Parrot/PackFile.pm,
	Parrot/PackFile/ConstTable.pm, Parrot/PackFile/Constant.pm,
	Parrot/PackFile/FixupTable.pm, include/parrot/packfile.h,
	include/parrot/string.h: 
	Move NVs to the constant table.    * Changes to Types_pm.in to make
	life easier for some of the	 packing/etc. I'm doing elsewhere.
	Also, we now pack 'n' as      'i'.
	
	  * Moved the guts of assemble.pl to Parrot/Assembler.pm so that
	    eventually we can use all these tools together inside scripts
	    rather than call out to the shell to run the programs.
	
	  * As I was tracking down problems, I converted the internal
	    documentation of the assembler to POD from comments.
	
	  * Changed the numeric regexp in the assembler to detect leading
	    signs and trailing exponents.
	
	  * Updated basic_opcodes.ops to fetch numeric constants from the
	    constant table.
	
	  * Enhanced the disassembler in a number of ways to make my life
	    easier while tracking down bugs (try it out). It now puts in
	    labels for ops that are the destinations of flow control ops.
	
	  * packfile.c now has a TRACE_PACKFILE switch that can be set
	    to get it to print info as it processes. I needed this while
	    debugging, but I can remove it or change it before committing
	    if its a problem.
	
	  * Updated pdump.c because it was missing a call to init_world().
	
	  * Updated process_opfunc.pl to deal with numeric constants
	    being stored in the constant table instead of inline.
	
	  * Added multiple type support to Parrot/PackFile/Constant.pm
	
	  * Added Parrot/String.pm, to be used for constants.
	
	  * Added packfile.[hc] functions for allocating new constants
	    of various types.
	
	  * Made string_copy visible to the world in parrot/string.h.
	
	Wow.

	* assemble.pl: This patch makes integer constants of the form
	0b[01]+ work with perl 5.005.  The oct function in versions of perl
	before 5.6 did not handle the 0b numeric prefix; therefore, it was
	returning 0.  To fix this, I added a from_binary function that
	would take a binary string and return its decimal representation. 
	Now, instead of blindly calilng oct, it makes a distinction between
	0/0x numbers and 0b numbers.

	include/parrot/bytecode.h, include/parrot/interpreter.h,

	t/op/stacks.t: 
	  * bytecode.[hc] removed. packfile.[hc] are the interface to the
	    packfile/bytecode file from C. May be renamed in the future.
	
	  * packfile.[hc] changed to use 'struct PackFile *', etc. instead
	    of 'PackFile *', just like the interpreter, etc.
	
	  * Constants are accessed via the interpreter's 'code' member
	    (struct PackFile * code). Macros PCONST(i) and PNCONST are
	    provided to access constants by index and the number of
	    constants, respectively (assumes a variable 'interpreter' of
	    the appropriate type is in scope).
	
	  * Byte Code is accessed via the interpreter's 'code' member.
	
	  * Changed PackFile_Constant to point to a STRING instead of
	having
	    members for the string_make() arguments. Also has a 'type' IV
	    in preparation for allowing multiple types of constants in
	    const_table.
	
	  * Removed hardcoded example program from test_main.c. We have
	    plenty of test programs elsewhere.
	
	  * test_prog now uses a PackFile to deal with the program before
	    sending it on to the interpreter.
	
	  * Added missing 'end' ops to some tests in t/op/integer.t and
	    t/op/stacks.t.

	This patch does two only somewhat related things.
	
	Parrot/Opcode.pm:  Change the hard-wired assumption that sizeof(nv)
	= 2*sizeof(iv) to a PConfig-type computed value.
	
	Parrot/Test.pm:  Change it to run with the perl that was used to
	generate this version of Parrot.  This is useful if, for example,
	you want to use bleadperl to build and test parrot (e.g. to try out
	various 64-bit options) but you still have a 5.6.x (or 5.005_xx)
	installed as the default 'perl' on your system.  Since perl-5.7.x
	is installed 'version-only', a plain 'perl' is quite likely to pick
	up the older perl in such cases. Such an older perl might well not
	understand pack('q') used in the assembler.

	opcode_table listing of if_i_ic and if_n_ic.  Dan had changed the
	function to only use 2 args, but the opcode_table still had three
	listed.  Fixed integer.t and number.t to use the new comparison
	operators.  Improved assemble.pl ability to grok operators by
	constructing a function set and comparing operator types.

2001-09-17 22:54  gregor

	* MANIFEST, Parrot/PackFile.pm, Parrot/PackFile/ConstTable.pm,
	Parrot/PackFile/Constant.pm, Parrot/PackFile/FixupTable.pm: 
	Functions for reading, writing and manipulating Parrot Pack Files.
	NOTE: This is a proposed term based on the fact that the file
	contains more than just byte code, and another language (Java)
	calls its binary files by a broader notion of what's in them (Class
	Files). Since Perl has packages, and since we use pack() to write
	them, we'll call them PackFiles (at least for now).
	
	That does, however, beg the question of file extension. Should we
	name the files "foo.pack" instead of "foo.pbc"?

2001-09-17 20:23  thgibbs

	* interpreter.c, test_main.c: Uncuddled else statements for coding
	standard.

2001-09-17 19:57  gregor

	Added a $revision variable, parsing of the CVS Id line in
	opcode_table and a &revision() subroutine.

	Added a CVS Id tag to it.

2001-09-17 18:38  gregor

	* build_interp_starter.pl, bytecode.c, bytecode.h, interpreter.c,
	interpreter.h, test_main.c: 
	  * Provides macros in interp_guts.h for setting up arrays with
	    op names and op arg counts (done via build_interp_starter.pl).
	
	    These are used in the op tracing
	
	  * The functions in bytecode.[hc] pass around a pointer to the
	length
	    of the bytecode so that later when we get to runops, we know
	    how much bytecode we've got and we can detect out-of-bounds
	    jumping. The documentation is updated, too.
	
	  * runops in interpreter.c now looks at interpreter->flags to
	    decide if the core of runops should be runops_trace_core or
	    runops_notrace_core. These new functions contain just the
	    while-loop portion of runops. A new function runops_generic
	    does any other setup (such as checking the bytecode
	    fingerprint) or wrapup (such as complaining if we ended up
	    out-of-bounds). NOTE: I didn't know what we should do for
	    functions in here that are not part of the api, so I gave
	    them docs with 'TODO' marks mentioning they really aren't
	    part of the api. Guidance appreciated.
	
	  * test_main.c now checks for '-t' arg and sets the tracing flag
	    on its interpreter instance as appropriate.

2001-09-17 17:47  bdwheele

	* assemble.pl: added some default equates, and if they're sub

	Courtesy of: Buggs <buggs-perl6-list@splashground.de>

2001-09-16 16:37  gregor

	* little_languages/jakoc: 
	Modified comparison implementation to use temporary registers in
	the case of register-constant and constant-register comparisons.
	This will allow the compiler to emit code that works when the
	constant-comparison ops are backed out of Parrot. If the ops ever
	make their way back in, then jakoc can emit more efficient code
	again.

2001-09-16 16:19  bdwheele

	In addition, it changes (for all registers) "I reg %li is ..." to
	just the value of the register.  Printing constants is also

2001-09-12 19:39  dan

	* basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table: From Gregor Purdy. Adds mod_i.

2001-09-12 19:23  dan

	* interpreter.h, parrot.h: Quick placeholder entry for string
	function tables

2001-09-12 18:58  dan

	* memory.c: Added in a cast to make gcc happy.

2001-09-12 16:44  dan

	* docs/parrot_assembly.pod: 
	
	PDD describing parrot's assembly language and the opcodes in it

2001-09-12 14:20  dan

	* memory.c: 
	Fixed alignment issues with allocation

2001-09-12 10:54  simon

	* Makefile, assemble.pl, bytecode.c, disassemble.pl,
	make_op_header.pl, opcode_table, process_opfunc.pl: 
	Brian Wheeler's big patch:
	
	* Changes the opcode_table file to provide additional information
	about the operands.  Case shouldn't be a problem since that data
	never becomes a C symbol [this is pretty much as before]
	
	* Padding errors solved:  assemble.pl and bytecode.c were padding
	the constants incorrectly.  It should have been 4-(size % 4), not
	just (size % 4).  It is now fixed in both places.
	
	* assembler has less special cases, and should be easier to hang
	error checking on
	
	* disassembler dumps constant table and the format is a bit
	prettier, including register names, etc.

2001-09-11 23:21  dan

	* build_interp_starter.pl, interpreter.c: 
	
	Abstracted the runops function core into a macro for easy
	replacement later.

2001-09-11 10:43  simon

	* Configure.pl, MANIFEST, Makefile, config.h, config.h.in: 
	Configure system from Brent Dax <brentdax@cpan.org>

2001-09-11 09:38  simon

	* assemble.pl, test.pbc: 
	From: Bryan C. Warnock <bwarnock@capita.com> Subject: Patch:
	assembler deferred output
	
	Also got rid of the bytecode, since that's probably way out of
	date.

2001-09-11 09:26  simon

	* basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table, t/test2.pasm: 
	From: Bryan C. Warnock <bwarnock@capita.com> Subject: length_s_i
	patch

2001-09-10 23:20  simon

	* MANIFEST: 
	And that move needs a MANIFEST change. So many things to remember!

2001-09-10 23:18  simon

	* t/: test.pasm, test2.pasm, test3.pasm: 
	Move tests to t/. (Oh, CVS doesn't work the way I think it does.)

2001-09-10 23:18  simon

	* test.pasm, test2.pasm, test3.pasm: 
	Move tests to t/

2001-09-10 23:04  dan

	* test3.pasm: 
	
	Register push/pop test

2001-09-10 22:47  simon

	* basic_opcodes.ops, bytecode.c, parrot.h, test_main.c: 
	Fix up format warnings, from Sam Tregar <sam@tregar.com>. 
	(Modified to avoid conflict with Dan's changes.)

2001-09-10 22:45  dan

	* disassemble.pl: 
	
	Happier about blanks in opcode_table

2001-09-10 22:40  dan

	* interpreter.c, register.c: 
	
	Yanked out debugging code, since these work OK. The bug I want is
	elsewhere.

2001-09-10 22:30  simon

	* MANIFEST: 
	Uhm. We want make_op_header.pl. We really, really do.

2001-09-10 22:26  simon

	* Makefile, TODO, assemble.pl, basic_opcodes.ops,
	build_interp_starter.pl, disassemble.pl, make_op_header.pl,
	opcode_table, process_opfunc.pl: 
	Automatic opcode numbering, from Leon Brocard <acme@astray.com>. 
	This means we can add lots more opcodes without fiddling about with
	the numbers. Hooray!
	
	Don't forget that "end" needs to be op zero, else the interpreter
	falls off the end of the code. This is Bad, and I wonder if there's
	a way around it.

2001-09-10 19:49  simon

	* MANIFEST, make_op_table_build.pl: 
	Hey! This doesn't do anything...

2001-09-10 19:46  simon

	* Makefile: 
	"clean" target cleanup from Bryan C. Warnock <bwarnock@capita.com>.

2001-09-10 18:31  simon

	* MANIFEST: 
	You know what this means...

2001-09-10 18:30  simon

	* assemble.pl: 
	"use strict" patch from Leon Brocard <acme@astray.com>. Hey, why
	wait for a release...? :)

2001-09-10 18:13  simon

	* interpreter.c: 
	Bad Dan! No cookie!

2001-09-10 17:56  simon

	* README: 
	A *real* README file, which doesn't claim it isn't for public
	consumption.

2001-09-10 17:02  simon

	* TODO: 
	More things to do.

2001-09-10 16:56  dan

	* TODO: Added in assembler gripe. Also added a few blank lines for
	clarity

2001-09-10 16:49  dan

	* register.h, register.c: Renamed the core functions so the opcodes
	can find 'em OK. (There were some conflicts)

2001-09-10 16:48  dan

	* basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table: Added register window ops

2001-09-10 11:07  simon

	* TODO: 
	Trivial TODO list.

2001-09-10 11:05  simon

	* test.pbc, test2.pasm, test_main.c: Other string bits and pieces;
	note "-s" flag to test prog.

2001-09-10 11:01  simon

	* docs/strings.pod: 
	New string documentation.

2001-09-10 11:01  simon

	* basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table: 
	String ops.

2001-09-10 10:53  simon

	* global_setup.c: 
	More string fu.

2001-09-10 10:51  simon

	* memory.h: 
	Just some more aliases for now. Used by string handling stuff.

2001-09-10 10:50  simon

	* assemble.pl, bytecode.c, bytecode.h: 
	Temporary hack to store string constants in bytecode and recreate
	them at runtime.

2001-09-10 10:48  simon

	* op.h: 
	op.h is now generated by the Makefile; remove it.

2001-09-10 10:47  simon

	* Makefile: 
	clean and op.h Makefile targets.

2001-09-10 10:45  simon

	* string.c, string.h, strnative.c: 
	More string vtable stuff.

2001-09-07 21:07  dan

	* assemble.pl: 
	
	Much less picky about whitespace in the opcode_table now. (Doesn't
	whine on blank lines)

2001-09-07 16:23  dan

	* Makefile, assemble.pl, global_setup.h, interpreter.c,
	interpreter.h, opcode_table, parrot.h, test.pasm: (Here's hoping
	this takes) Added global_setup.h to declare init_world function
	
	Moved variable declarations out of the interpreter loop for small
	speed boost.
	
	Changed end opcode to now be opcode #0. A function is provided for
	it, but isn't ever executed.
	
	When the interpreter sees an opcode 0 in the stream it means the
	end of stream. Things were coring on Cygwin otherwise. (I think I
	was dereferencing a zero, which is bad)

2001-09-06 22:07  dan

	* basic_opcodes.ops, process_opfunc.pl: 
	
	Minor tweaks to basic_opcodes.ops to fix some NV issues. The rest
	are minor changes now that things are in a fixed state.

2001-09-06 16:13  dan

	* basic_opcodes.c, test_opcodes.c: 
	test_opcodes.c is now irrelevant--they're all in basic_opcodes.ops.
	
	basic_opcodes.c is now autogenerated from basic_opcodes.ops, and
	should be nuked. So it is. :)

2001-09-06 03:35  dan

	* basic_opcodes.ops, build_interp_starter.pl, process_opfunc.pl: 
	Scripts to build the header file that holds the function table
	creation code, as well as the script to turn an opcode file to C
	source. (And the basic opcode functions turned into an opcode
	source file)

2001-09-06 03:31  dan

	* Makefile, interpreter.c: 
	Changes to support the autogeneration of the opcode function
	pointer table in interpreter.c, along with the changes to the
	Makefile needed.

2001-09-05 13:27  simon

	* bytecode.c, config.h, docs/opcodes.pod, docs/overview.pod,
	docs/parrotbyte.pod, docs/vtables.pod: 
	Added stubs for the documents; working on them this week. (What's
	left of it.) config.h change is just to type VTABLE, and the
	bytecode thing you might want to revoke. It's apidoc for the
	functions in there.

2001-09-03 18:26  simon

	* docs/strings.pod: 
	A start on the string API documentation.

2001-09-03 17:43  simon

	* opcode_table: 
	Since we specify the opcode number, we can rearrange to a more
	human-friendly ordering.

2001-09-03 17:42  simon

	* basic_opcodes.c: 
	Coupl'a logic bugs. (I think)

2001-09-03 17:41  simon

	* string.c, string.h, strnative.c: 
	Tidying up the string vtables.

2001-09-03 17:38  simon

	* make_op_header.pl: 
	Spit out the whole of op.h, not just the bit in the middle.

2001-08-29 13:16  ask

	* README: it seems like we indeed can commit. What about sending
	commit mails?

2001-08-29 13:07  simon

	* Makefile, README, assemble.pl, basic_opcodes.c, bytecode.c,
	bytecode.h, config.h, disassemble.pl, events.h, exceptions.h,
	global_setup.c, interpreter.c, interpreter.h, io.h,
	make_op_header.pl, make_op_table_build.pl, memory.c, memory.h,

	stacks.h, string.c, string.h, strnative.c, strnative.h, test.pasm,
	test.pbc, test_main.c, test_opcodes.c: 
	Initial checkin of Simon's work directory - Dan, feel free to nuke.
	 I'm still working on the string stuff, though.

2001-08-29 12:44  ask

	* README: update README with list address

2001-08-29 12:36  ask

	* README: first readme.
