Source entered interactively can now be displayed in traceback output. Also,
the REPL object is now available in its namespace, so that, for instance,
display options--like `spy`--can be turned on and off interactively.
Closeshylang/hy#1397.
Compiler and command-line error messages now reflect their Python counterparts.
E.g. where Python emits a `SyntaxError`, so does Hy; same for `TypeError`s.
Multiple tests have been added that check the format and type of raised
exceptions over varying command-line invocations (e.g. interactive and not).
A new exception type for `require` errors was added so that they can be treated
like normal run-time errors and not compiler errors.
The Hy REPL has been further refactored to better match the class-structured
API. Now, different error types are handled separately and leverage more base
class-provided functionality.
Closeshylang/hy#1486.
This commit refactors the exception/error classes and their handling.
It also retains Hy source strings and their originating file information, when
available, all throughout the core parser and compiler functions.
As well, with these changes, calling code is no longer responsible for providing
source and file details to exceptions,
Closeshylang/hy#657.

Python 3.x is patched in a way that integrates `.hy` source files into
Pythons default `importlib` machinery. In Python 2.7, a PEP-302 "importer"
and "loader" is implemented according to the standard `import` logic (via
`pkgutil` and later pure-Python `imp` package code).
In both cases, the entry-point for the loaders is through `sys.path_hooks` only.
As well, the import semantics have been updated all throughout to utilize
`importlib` and follow aspects of PEP-420. This, along with some light
patches, should allow for basic use of `runpy`, `py_compile` and `reload`.
In all cases, if a `.hy` file is shadowed by a `.py`, Hy will silently use
`.hy`.
Python 3.5 will have a new commercial-at infix operator with the magic
methods __matmul__, __rmatmul__, and __imatmul__, unused as yet in the
standard library, but intended to represent matrix multiplication in
numerical code; see PEP 465 (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0465/)
for details. This commit (developed against Python 3.5 alpha 3) brings
support for this operator to Hy when running under Python 3.5 (or,
hypothetically as yet, greater). For Hy under Python <= 3.4, attempting
to use `@` in function-call position currently results in a NameError;
this commit does not change that behavior.
This is intended to resolve#668.
There was a couple of duplicate imports and type checkings in the
codebase. So I added a new module to unify all Python 2 and 3
compatibility codes.
Also, this is a somewhat common pattern in Python. See Jinja2 for
example:
