Changes:
- Made library work with constant strings passed as input to matho_process().
- Added "set bold_colors" option. Use this if equations are difficult to read.
- Removed "doc/ctips.html".
- Cleaned up and improved makefiles.
- Fixed bug in "compile.secure".
scilab update. Add a note in the Makefile to prevent this in the
future.
- add Version.incl to the buildlink files. That is needed to allow
add ons to determine the scilab version. Currently no pkgs are using
this, but that will change soon.
gnucash uses libguppi do do various graphical rendering activities.
A bug in the libraries bar-charting code means that the labels
on bar-charts are attached to the wrong objects, so attempting
to open a sub-chart results in the wrong entry being selected
(click on the first entry and the last one is displayed, click on
the last and the first).
Unfortunately, it would appear that guppi is no-longer being actively
maintained, so there might not be a further release of this library.
The attached patch is included in several source RPMS for Linux
(and apparently was committed to the guppi source CVS).

Changes:
- Perfected process() (the input processor).
- Code cleanup.
- Display polar coordinates in roots command.
- Parse "**" as "^".
- The docs were clarified.
- Increased sizes of many input buffers.
* What is new in gsl-1.7:
** Switched gsl_randist_binomial to use the faster binomial random
variate TPE algorithm by default. The previous binomial variate
algorithm is available as gsl_randist_binomial_knuth. This will
result in a different sequence of binomial variates in programs using
this function.
** Improved the algorithm for gsl_sf_elljac_e to avoid cancellation
errors near quarter periods.
** Fixed the branch selection in gsl_sf_gamma_inc_Q_e to avoid
inaccurate results for large a,x where x~=~a.
** The multilinear fitting functions now have forms which accept a
user-specified tolerance for the SVD cutoff and return the
corresponding effective rank of the design matrix.
** The quadratic solvers in poly/ now handle linear equations
gracefully (i.e. quadratrics with a leading coefficient of zero).
** The output of "make check" now only shows test failures by default,
to reduce the amount of output. Set the environment variable
GSL_TEST_VERBOSE=1 to display all the output. To assist debugging,
the test number of each failure is shown in square brackets at the
line-end [NNNN].
** Fixed bugs in gsl_linalg_SV_decomp_jacobi which caused
incorrect results for some input matrices.
** Bessel, coulomb, dilogarithm and legendre_H3d functions now use
hypot internally to avoid overflow when computing terms like
sqrt(1+x*x).
** The 'Usage' chapter of the reference manual now explains how to
handle deprecated functions using the GSL_DISABLE_DEPRECATED macro.
** The conflicting enum definitions for 'forward' and 'backward' in
gsl_ftt.h and gsl_wavelet.h are deprecated. User code should switch
to the new definitions gsl_fft_forward, gsl_fft_backward,
gsl_wavelet_forward and gsl_wavelet_backward. Selectively define
GSL_DISABLE_DEPRECATED before including the headers to use the new
definitions on either or both modules.
** Fixed an error in the the brent minimisation algorithm. Iterations
should now follow Brent's original description correctly.
** The bound coulomb function gsl_sf_hydrogenicR_e no longer reports
an underflow for exact zeroes of the wavefunction.
** gsl_linalg_SV_decomp_jacobi now reports an error for the
unimplemented case M<N correctly.
** Fixed conformance test for the SYRK and HERK blas functions
gsl_blas_{s,d,c,z}syrk and gsl_blas_{c,z}herk for non-square matrices.
** Configure now checks for presence of ieeefp.h if needed.
** Differential equation solvers now propagate error codes returned
from user-defined functions to the top-level in all cases.
** Sort functions now avoid an infinite loop if Nans are present in
the input vector. The order of nans in the output is undefined,
although other elements will be sorted correctly.
Changes:
- The C complex number library was finished and perfected (complex_lib.c).
- Yet another code cleanup.
- Added "UNIX" compile-time define to the Prime Number Tools.
- Some improvements to the Mathomatic documentation.
While I dislike moving pkgs around and forcing users into updates I'm
making an exception here, because this is a leaf pkg, we don't
support gnumeric-1.2 anymore and because gnumeric-1.4 is fully
compatible to older sheets tbomk. Sorry for breaking pkgchk.conf though.
Fixed
- src/kernel/sparcv8/MakeVar.SH missing from MANIFEST (hence from tarball)
- stack corruption in matsnf() [ when GC occurs ]
- incorrect result in gaffsg(s < 0, t_PADIC)
- [hi-res plot: X-Windows] rescaling bug
- [ix86 + gcc]: fix "invalid preprocessing token" Warning
- removed hack in buchall() [ function called through unappropriate
type (in init mode) to avoid inserting irrelevant arguments ]. Caused
some compiler to produce incorrect code (SEGV).
- typo in isabsolutepol(): SEGV in factorff for some t_POLs
defined over the prime field
- inconsistent error message when starting 'gp -p 436273000'
- Configure support for GNU/Hurd
- Fixed a potential crash after saving patterns.
- Removed -mpentiumpro from the Makefile.
- Zoom 1:1 and 16:1 buttons are now grayed out when appropriate.
- Rearranged zoom buttons to be more logical.
Main Changes Scilab 3.0 -> 3.1
=========================
The new features of Scilab 3.1 are the following:
- "xgetmouse", "eventhandler" event set extended to click, double-click, <Ctrl> Key. See more details in xclick and xgetmouse on line help.
Warning: Because of distinction of click events, some users' scripts can have a different behavior.
To make it work as before please check and modified test on events as follow:
supposing that button contains the value returned by xclick (left most argument) or xgetmouse (third componant of returned vector) then replace test like:
button==0 by or(button==[0,3])
button==1 by or(button==[1,4])
button==2 by or(button==[2,5])
- Integration of the ATLAS library (specific Windows version).
During the installation of Scilab, dynamic library (Atlas.dll) is automatically chosen according to the CPU detected. See details in the Atlas.spec file under scilab\bin directory.
- Java interface written to allow calling Scilab computational engine from Java
- TCL interface has been totally rewritten (for better error detection and better data transfert). ScilabEval improve to handle synchronism.
For your information you should know that tcl8.4 segfault when running on Linux 2.6 kernels on machines with 2 or more processors.
- Scipad editor
o A debugging tool is now available.
o Drag'n'drop is now supported.
o User settings and text colors are now configurable and saved across editing sessions.
o Find/Replace debugged and improved.
o Quick access in the file menu for recently opened/saved files.
o Creation of XML help page templates and xmltohtml compilation available from within Scipad.
o Identification of Scilab predefined variables and library functions in scilab scripts.
o Scipad is easily localized. Today English, German, French, Swedish and Italian languages are supported.
o Miscellaneous file management improvements: readonly flag, absolute pathnames to files, pruned pathnames display, revert to saved feature.
- Graphics editor completed
o Axes structure totally rebuild.
New axes properties available (see manual and type 'gca()' for a complet listing), z logscale enable, axes inversion.
o Save and load had been extended to graphics handle
o 'plot' macro added to scilab to mimic the "matlab plot" behavior (type "help plot" for more info.)
o 'surf' macro added to scilab to mimic the "matlab surf" behavior (type "help surf" for more info.)
Graphics entities are associated to Scilab variables of type handle. The handle is a unique identifier which is associated to each instance of a created graphics entity. Using this handle, it will be possible to reach entities properties through "set" and "get" routines. The handles are also used to manipulate graphics objects, to move them, to copy or delete them.
Enter "help graphics_entities" at Scilab prompt for more details.
- Scicos block set has been extended/revisited to be more compatible with Simulink one, compiler, code generator and implicit system simulator have been improved.
- Configure adapted to linux 64bit architectures
- Improvement of the integration of Visual Studio Compiler to the dynamic links: findmsvccompiler() and configure_msvc() macros have been added

Changes:
- Created "complex.h".
- Fixed and documented "help all >filename", for quickly creating a
quick command reference.
- Fixed up and commented "main.c".
- Split off "complex.c" into "complex_lib.c" and made it an
independent complex number library.
- Added "integrate definite" command option.
- Corrected makefile install.
- Added check in nintegrate command to fail if result contains
infinity or nan.
- A few complex number improvements were made.
- Allow a text pre-processor to pipe input into Mathomatic.
1) Simplify the way how an emacs version is picked when no emacs
is installed, but a user try to install an Emacs Lisp package.
Just pick up the version set as EMACS_TYPE than searching for
versions already installed etc. If the EMACS_TYPE version is
not supported by the Emacs Lisp Package, just fail. EMACS_TYPE
be default to GNU Emacs 21.
(In other words, users should set EMACS_TYPE as they want.
Otherwise GNU Emacs 21 is used.)
2) All Emacs Lisp Packages *must* prepend EMACS_PKGNAME_PREFIX to
a) the PKGNAME itself, and b) PKGNAME in its dependency lines.
EMACS_PKGNAME_PREFIX is expanded to "xemacs-" when XEmacs is
used. This keeps dependency graph of Emacs-Lisp-packages-
installed-for-XEmacs consistent.
3) Document EMACS_* variables as much as possible.
4) Provide more cookies for PLIST. Maybe utilized later.
Note that the 2) change doesn't affect the default, GNU Emacs 21
behaviour. So no version / revision bumps in this commit.
