Communication between process are done with pipes and these pipes are managed by a specific asynchrone thread. If a script try to create more threads than management thread can destroy, you can quickly achieve maximum number of opened files and pipe() shall return a system error. This macro tries to create pipes. If pipe() function returns an error, macro waits and retries.

Syntax: 3: type ("J", "K", "I", "Y", "j", "k", "i", "y") 2: order (integer or real) 1: x; - ->Q intrinsic is added; - major bug is fixed in C->R intrinsic; - ROW+ and ROW- are added and tested; - COL+ and COL- are added and tested. Syntax: 3: matrix 2: integer (number of column to be inserted) 1: column matrix to be inserted; - major bug was discovered in interface_gnuplot(). It only occurs when the subroutine reduces the graphical depth. It is now fixed; - Some mistakes are been fixed in vim syntax file; - SX2, SY2 and SXY are added; - SX and SY statistical intrinsics are added; - DEBIAN control file is fixed; - PAPER intrinsic is added. Supported paper formats are now : a4, a5, b5, letter, legal, executive; - PPAR is modified to include current graphic type. * Sun Jun 1 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6k (RPL/2) - SLICESCALE intrinsic is added. Its syntax is { "automatic" nb_of_levels } { "discrete" l1 l2 l3 ... } { "incremental" start incr } { "incremental" start incr end } { "automatic" } (default); - a minor bug (in last stack) is fixed in AXES intrinsic - flag 52 is used to automatically update graphics; - man pages are updated; - evaluation() is modified to perform evaluation of expressions that contain '='; - a minor bug is fixed in AXES intrinsic; - a minor bug is fixed in DRAW intrinsic (2D and 3D graphics were able to appear on the same figure). The same mistake is fixed in DRWS intrinsic; - LAST is disabled in evaluation subroutine (EVAL and ->NUM intrinsics). * Sun May 18 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6j (RPL/2) - SLICE intrinsic is added. It is used to draw 3D graphics as contour lines; - PLOTTER is added to draw statistical clouds with lines; - C and H source files now include vim parameters; - vim syntax file is modified to include new intrinsics; - static archive is modified to include all required libraries needed by RPL/2. * Sun May 4 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6i (RPL/2) - '=' is added and tested; - XCOL and YCOL are added; - a minor bug in analyse_syntaxique() is fixed; - THEN is modified to return an error when ELSE appears in a CASE/THEN/END structure. ELSE is modified to return an error when ELSE appears in an ELSE/END structure; - a major bug is fixed in CYCLE; - EXIT is written. When EXIT appears in a defined loop (FOR or START), the sequencer continues after the end of this loop; - SCLS is added; - DRWS now uses COLS to draw 2D graphics; - PPAR and SPAR are written. SPAR returns a list that contains the size of the statistical matrix (or "UNAVALAIBLE" if there is any statistical variable, or "DISABLED" if its type is not one of the type of a statistical matrix.) and XCOL and YCOL parameters. Warning: [[]] SIZE returns { 1 0 } and it is not a bug, because a null matrix contains _one_ null line ! Thus, [[]] STOS SPAR returns { { 1 0 } 1 2 }; - EXTERNAL intrinsic is added. Warning: by default, extern functions are disabled. Arguments of EXTERNAL are case sensitive because the external interface is written in C. { ext_sinus } EXTERNAL does not replace the list of known external functions but add the new list to the last. { "all" } EXTERNAL allows all external functions and { "none" } EXTERNAL removes all external names of the known functions; - mkrplso.in is modified. * Sun Apr 20 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6h (RPL/2) - vim syntax file is upgraded; - a minor mistake is fixed in recherche_instruction_suivante(); - some minor memory leaks are fixed in recherche_type() function. They only occurs when a syntax error is detected; - #error and #warning preprocessor macros are added; - INCR and DECR are written (with integer or variable argument); - CSWP and RSWP are added and tested; - a minor bug is fixed in analyse.c; - DEBIAN/control is added to build debian package; - SCALE is fixed and improved ("automatic" keyword); - PUTC and PUTR new intrinsics are added. * Sun Apr 13 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6g (RPL/2) - a very minor bug is fixed in VISIT intrinsic. It only occurs when VISIT does not find a name in level 1; - configure.in script is modified to add a new test (--enable-debug flag). Configured with this fleg, RPL/2 will be built with electric-fences; - GETR (get row[s]) and GETC (get column[s]) are added. These new instructions extract a part of a matrix. Syntax: [[ 1 2 3 ][ 2 3 4 ]] { 1 } GETR or 'MATRIX' { 2 2 3 } GETR; - LOGSCALE intrinsic is improved and now, it can be used as { "main" "auxiliary" X Y } LOGSCALE; - SCALE intrinsic is used to fix the limits of a graphic. Its syntax is the same than AXES: { { 60 "ticsonly" 2 } { "automatic" "ticsonly" 10 } } axes { "auxiliary" { 60 "ticsonly" "default" } { "automatic" } } axes { { -10 10 } "automatic" } SCALE. Warning, it is not possible to ask a logarithmic scale with this intrinsic because it changes only the dimension of the screen. To have a logarithmic scale, you must use LOGSCALE intrinsic: { X } LOGSCALE gives a semi-log screen, { "auxiliary" X Y } gives a log-log screen on second scale; - { X X } autoscale and { Y Y } logscale are now invalid; - *D is added (depth multiplication, for 3D graphics); - a new intrinsic (*S) is added. It changes the scale of a graphic (X, Y and Z axes). The result of *S is the same than DUP DUP *H *W *D; - a major bug is fixed in GETI instrinsic when it is used with a name that contains a matrix or a vector (bad upper bounds conditions in incrementation); - DISP intrinsic now uses the 33-th flag. When it is not set (default), a final carriage return is sent to the terminal; - AXES intrinsic only takes a list that can contains the keywork "main" or "auxiliary". Before this modification, this keyword was in the first stack level; - vim syntax file is upgraded; - in appel_gnuplot(), stdin is closed when gnuplot is called with -raise option; - LAST is now disabled in the main loop of INT intrinsic; - expm1 and lnp1 are rewritten to use expm1 and log1p from math.h. * Sun Apr 6 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6f (RPL/2) - a major bug is fixed in evaluation() subroutine. It occurs with DRAW intrinsic when the equation cannot be evaluated (for example 'SIN(X)/X' in 0); - LAST is disabled in the main loop of DRAW intrinsic; - a major bug is fixed in DRAW intrinsic. When an error occurs in the evaluation of an equation, the system stack is returned corrupted to the sequencer; - the same minor bug is fixed in FOR and START. It only occurs when the limits of a loop are not integer or real. * Sun Mar 31 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6e (RPL/2) - the compilation stage aborts with an error message when two definitions have the same name. To improve the compilation() subroutine, I have to add some tests in gestion_variables.c; - recherche_type() subroutine ad some other connex subroutines are improved. Now, some syntax errors about object are caught and do not perform sequencer hangup; - readline is upgraded (minor compilation bug with recent gcc); - Makefile.am's and configure.in scripts are improved. * Fri Mar 14 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6d (RPL/2) - DRWS intrinsic is written. Two datastyles are associated: SCATTER (2D and 3D) and HISTOGRAM (only 2D, but 3 columns are accepted, the third shown the boxwidth, 1 by default); - recherche_type() is rewritten to be faster; - gsl is upgraded (release 1.3); - ncurses is upgraded and patched (release 5.3); - recherche_instruction_suivante() is fixed (string research with included '"') and rewritten to be faster; - appel_gnuplot() is fixed. When no graphic was available, it returned a segfault. * Sun Mar 9 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6c (RPL/2) - RPL/2 is compiled by gcc-3.2.2 and seems to work; - the same minor bug is fixed in REDRAW and DRAX functions; - a minor fix is written in DRAW function (2D and 3D); - AXES intrinsic is improved. Now { { pi "ticsonly" 4 } "automatic" } DRAX is accepted; - a minor bug is fixed in VISIT intrinsic. * Sun Jan 26 2003 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6b (RPL/2) - a minor bug is fixed in evaluation subroutine; - vim syntax file is improved; - DRAW (wireframe section) is fixed. When an error occurs in the evaluation of a 3D-graphic (for example 'SIN(R)/R' with 'R=SQRT(X**2+Y**2)' in X=0 and Y=0), no graph was procuced (it results from a bug in gnuplot, and this fix is a quick and dirty workaround...); - RETURN intrinsic is modified to fix a trouble in interactive mode; - rplconvert is improved. * Sun Dec 22 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6a (RPL/2) - a memory leak is fixed in formateur.c that only occurs when RPL/2 try to print a list that contains a name; - a major bug is fixed in -> intrinsic that only occurs in evaluation case with a algebraic expression (<< 1 -> X 'X+1' >> eval); - vim syntax file is improved; - RPL/2 can now be built by gcc 3.2.1; - "**" can be used in algebraic expression; - DRAW can now plot wireframe (3D) graphics. * Sun Dec 8 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre6 (RPL/2) - ncurses is patched to be compiled by gcc 3.2; - purification_chaine is rewritten to fix a major bug (when 'chaine' is empty); - a major bug is fixed in recherche_instruction_suivante(); - minor bug is fixed in rpl-core file.

This bug rarely occurs in normal mode. * Sun Aug 25 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre5e (RPL/2) - an EDIT intrinsic is added; - PRMD intrinsic returns french or english messages; - rpl-core now call LAST intrinsic if the last stack is avalaible. It contains the error message too; - new syntax, ftplugin and indent files are written for vim text editor; - major bug is found and fixed in RCL intrinsic; - major bug is found and fixed in OR intrinsic. * Mon Jul 29 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre5d (RPL/2) - ncurses is updated; - minor bug is fixed on PURGE instruction (an error no caught was returned in interactive mode). * Mon Jul 21 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre5c (RPL/2) - ASL (arithm. shift left) is added. * Thu Jul 11 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre5b (RPL/2) - ncurses is patched; - gsl is added to perform arithmetic operations; - units is patched; - some very minor bugs have been fixed. * Wed May 15 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre5a (RPL/2) - ncurses is patched; - RPL/2 can now be built by gcc 3.1; - RDZ is fixed (minor bug). * Sun Apr 21 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre5 (RPL/2) - RPL/2 can now be called from other languages (librpl libraries). * Sun Mar 24 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4h (RPL/2) - ERRN and ERRM can now be used with errors returned by external functions; - readline and ncurses have been updated; - no more bugs have been reported since the rpl-4.00pre4g release. * Wed Feb 20 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4g (RPL/2) - ERRN and ERRM intrinsic functions are written. They return the last error number or message even if errors are caught by an IFERR structure; - a minor bug is fixed in EPSILON intrinsic. Now, 'EPSILON(0)' returns a non null value; - Ncurses is updated. * Mon Feb 18 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4f (RPL/2) Arithmetic intrinsic instructions (- +, -, *, / and **) are improved : 'X' 0 + and 0 'X' + return 'X'; 'X' 0 - returns 'X'; 'X' 1 * and 1 'X' * return 'X'; 'X' 0 * and 0 'X' * returns 0; 'X' 1 / returns 'X'; 'X' 1 ** returns 'X'; 'NEG(X)' NEG returns 'X'; - autoconf/automake scripts are improved: now, the size of the different types found by configure are used in rpltypes.h (rplconfig.h is written by configure); - rdynamic flag is added in src/Makefile.am. This flag is used in the first makefile, but forgotten in the new process; - Flag 31 is tested before saving any arguments in bibliotheques_externes.c; - POS can now be used on lists; - ELSILON is written. This function returns the smallest real e(x) such as e+abs(x) != abs(x). * Mon Feb 11 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4e (RPL/2) - now, INT intrinsic function can be interrupted; - precision of sommation_vecteur_xxx() subroutines is improved; - new vim syntax file written for vim 6.0. * Mon Feb 04 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4d (RPL/2) - explicit error messages are now printed when the RPL/2 is used in interactive mode; - major bug is fixed in OPEN intrinsic: with 'REPLACE' status, file lock was tested after the file is opened, thus, when the file was locked, it was deleted too!; - configure script is improved (and it seems to be good ;-) ); - An --disable-experimental flag is added to the configure script. Thus, even if you compile a beta release, you can compile a stable RPL/2; - new syntax and ftplugin written for vim 6.0. * Wed Jan 30 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4c (RPL/2) - configure script is improved. * Sun Jan 27 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4b (RPL/2) - ncurses now replaces termcap; - Côme DESPLATS has written a configure script. * Fri Jan 18 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4a (RPL/2) - KIND is added and returns the type of the numerical argument ; - history file is added. * Tue Jan 15 2002 BERTRAND Joël rpl-4.00pre4 (RPL/2) - Stable release.

Now, RPL/2 can be built on i386 (i486 is known as i386), i586, i686, K6, K7, alpha ev4, alpha ev5, alpha ev56, alpha ev6, sparc v7, sparc v8 and sparc v9. Compilation of RPL/2 on my Sun Sparc 2 (sun4c, CPU 4/75, 64 MB, 40 MHz with FPU) is a very great mission : Newton:[~/rpl/rpl] > time make install ... real 338m39.623s user 324m32.290s sys 10m47.380s Newton:[~/rpl/rpl] > I don't know if you will compile this language on old worstations, but it is usable ;-) ; - SYSEVAL is improved.
