ecc974de1e Implement Python 2 exec

e4a7b317e1 Make fn work like lambda and remove lambda (#1228)
* with-decorator: Allow a `setv` form as the form to be decorated

This feature is of dubious value by itself, but it's necessary to allow `defn` to create a lambda instead of a `def`.

* Make `fn` work the same as `lambda`

That is, allow it to generate a `lambda` instead of a `def` statement if the function body is just an expression.

I've removed two uses of with_decorator in hy.compiler because they'd require adding another case to HyASTCompiler.compile_decorate_expression and they have no ultimate effect, anyway.

In a few tests, I've added a meaningless statement in `fn` bodies to force generation of a `def`.

I've removed `test_fn_compiler_empty_function` rather than rewrite it because it seems like a pain to maintain and not very useful.

* Remove `lambda`, now that `fn` does the same thing

f3edeb99ae Allow commas and underscores in numeric literals

This change differs from PEP 515 in that not only does it allow commas in addition to underscores, but it's much more liberal about placement. Any number of underscores or commas can be placed anywhere, even at the start.

* added interop page

* remove the TODO from interop section in tutorial

Because yay

* Corrections from @Kodiologist

I kept the part about mangling, but added a warning about its incompleteness. I
think it can be useful for somebody who just wants to use a Python module in his
code. Maybe it can be removed when the actual documentation for mangling is
written.

* Added myself to AUTHORS.

e588b4928d add defmacro! and fix macro expansion error message (#1172)
* added defmacro!

* revert #924

#924 had an error and should never have been merged in the first place. (see #903)

* put back import getargspec

Without the `formatargspec` this time.

* Give better error message on failed macro expansion

Better error messages work most of the time. In cases where there are
parameters that aren't valid in Python, error message shown is rather
ugly. But this is better than no error messages at all and such
macros with strange parameter names are rather rare.

* fix flake8 errors

* Minor English improvements

14fddbe6c3 Give require the same features as import (#1142)
Give `require` the same features as `import`

You can now do (require foo), (require [foo [a b c]]), (require [foo [*]]), and (require [foo :as bar]). The first and last forms get you macros named foo.a, foo.b, etc. or bar.a, bar.b, etc., respectively. The second form only gets the macros in the list.

Implements #1118 and perhaps partly addresses #277.

N.B. The new meaning of (require foo) will cause all existing code that uses macros to break. Simply replace these forms with (require [foo [*]]) to get your code working again.

There's a bit of a hack involved in the forms (require foo) or (require [foo :as bar]). When you call (foo.a ...) or (bar.a ...), Hy doesn't actually look inside modules. Instead, these (require ...) forms give the macros names that have periods in them, which happens to work fine with the way Hy finds and interprets macro calls.

* Make `require` syntax stricter and add tests

* Update documentation for `require`

* Documentation wording improvements

* Allow :as in `require` name lists

26f342d580 Teach apply about symbol mangling
apply now mangles strings and keywords according to the Hy mangling
rules (by using the same function, now imported from
hy.lex.parser). With this change, if the dict passed to apply has
keywords, strings or quoted symbols, they'll get mangled, to turn them
into proper keys.

This only works for the cases where the keys are directly in the apply
params. A previously deffed dict, or key through a variable will not be
mangled.

This closes #219.

defclass reimagined
defclass now has a new syntax:

 (defclass Name [BaseList]
   [property value
    property value] ;; optional

   (defn method [self]
     self.property))

Anything after the optional property list (which will be translated to a
setv within the class context) will be added to the class body. This
allows one to have side effects and complex expressions within the class
definition.

As a side effect, defining methods is much more friendly now!

016557deab reader macro #@ for with-decorator
The `with-decorator` special form is not the most ergonomic—this commit
introduces a new builtin `#@` reader macro that expands to an invocation
of `with-decorator`. To support this, `reader_macroexpand` is made to
also look in the default `None` namespace, in imitation of how
regular (non-reader) macros defined in hy.core are looked up. The
docstring of `hy.macros.reader` is also edited slightly for accuracy.

This in the matter of issue #856.
