Move the heavy lifting from cl-seq.el to C.
src/ChangeLog addition:
2010-12-30 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net>
Move the heavy lifting from cl-seq.el to C, finally making those
functions first-class XEmacs citizens, with circularity checking,
built-in support for tests other than #'eql, and as much
compatibility with current Common Lisp as Paul Dietz' tests require.
* fns.c (check_eq_nokey, check_eq_key, check_eql_nokey)
(check_eql_key, check_equal_nokey, check_equal_key)
(check_equalp_nokey, check_equalp_key, check_string_match_nokey)
(check_string_match_key, check_other_nokey, check_other_key)
(check_if_nokey, check_if_key, check_match_eq_key)
(check_match_eql_key, check_match_equal_key)
(check_match_equalp_key, check_match_other_key): New. These are
basically to provide function pointers to be used by Lisp
functions that take TEST, TEST-NOT and KEY arguments.
(get_check_match_function_1, get_check_test_function)
(get_check_match_function): These functions work out which of the
previous list of functions to use, given the keywords supplied by
the user.
(count_with_tail): New. This is the bones of #'count.
(list_count_from_end, string_count_from_end): Utility functions
for #'count.
(Fcount): New, moved from cl-seq.el.
(list_position_cons_before): New. The implementation of #'member*,
and important in implementing various other functions.
(FmemberX, Fadjoin, FassocX, FrassocX, Fposition, Ffind)
(FdeleteX, FremoveX, Fdelete_duplicates, Fremove_duplicates)
(Fnsubstitute, Fsubstitute, Fsublis, Fnsublis, Fsubst, Fnsubst)
(Ftree_equal, Fmismatch, Fsearch, Fintersection, Fnintersection)
(Fsubsetp, Fset_difference, Fnset_difference, Fnunion, Funion)
(Fset_exclusive_or, Fnset_exclusive_or): New, moved here from
cl-seq.el.
(position): New. The implementation of #'find and #'position.
(list_delete_duplicates_from_end, subst, sublis, nsublis)
(tree_equal, mismatch_from_end, mismatch_list_list)
(mismatch_list_string, mismatch_list_array)
(mismatch_string_array, mismatch_string_string)
(mismatch_array_array, get_mismatch_func): Helper C functions for
the Lisp-visible functions.
(venn, nvenn): New. The implementation of the main Lisp functions that
treat lists as sets.
lisp/ChangeLog addition:
2010-12-30 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net>
* cl-seq.el:
Move the heavy lifting from this file to C. Dump the
cl-parsing-keywords macro, but don't use defun* for the functions
we define that do take keywords, dynamic scope lossage makes that
not practical.
* subr.el (sort, fillarray): Move these aliases here.
(map-plist): #'nsublis is now built-in, but at this point #'eql
isn't necessarily available as a test; use #'eq.
* obsolete.el (cl-delete-duplicates): Make this available for old
compiler macros and old code.
(memql): Document that this is equivalent to #'member*, and worse.
* cl.el (adjoin, subst): Removed. These are in C.

This directory contains a number of XEmacs dynamic modules. These modules can be loaded directly with the command 'M-x load-module'. However, the preferred method of loading a module is to issue a "(require 'module-name)" command to the Lisp interpreter. This will store information so that a later "(unload-feature 'module-name)" can succeed. To compile one of these modules, simply enter the desired directory, type 'configure', and then 'make'. If you are building the module for an installed XEmacs, then 'make install' will place the module in the appropriate directory for XEmacs to find it later (assuming you have permission to write to that directory). A subsequent 'load-module' or 'require' will then load the module, as described above. Each of these demonstrates different features and limitations of the XEmacs module loading technology. For a complete discussion on XEmacs dynamic modules, please consult the XEmacs Module Writers Guide, which can be found in the ../info directory. For those wanting to get started with module writing, please see the 'sample' directory. It contains two subdirectories: internal and external. The 'internal' subdirectory contains the framework needed to migrate some core piece of XEmacs functionality into code that can either be compiled into the core or built as a separate module. The 'external' subdirectory contains the somewhat simpler framework needed to build a module separately from XEmacs. These should be considered starting places for module writing.
