Summary: This update does away with the scripts in bin and changes
setup.py to use entry_points in cmdline.py for the scripts 'hy' and
'hyc'.
This fixes installing and running on Windows.
The tests are updated to run the 'hy' script produced by setup.py
and not from bin/hy. This is more correct and makes the tox tests
run on both Window and *nix.
For running hy or nosetests directly in the source tree, you do have
to run 'python setup.py develop' first. But since tox runs and builds
dists, all tox tests pass on all platforms.
Also, since there is no built-in readline on Windows, the setup.py
only on Windows requires 'pyreadline' as a replacement.
Switched from optparse to argparse in cmdline.py
Instead of trying to manually separate args meant for
hy from args meant for a hy script, this switches from
optparse to argparse for the CLI.
argparse automatically peels out args meant for hy and leaves
the rest, including the user hy script in options.args.
This fixes the issue @paultag found running "hy foo" where
foo is not a real file. Also added a test that makes sure
trying to run a non-existent script exits instead of dropping
the user into the REPL.
Added argparse as setup.py resource (and removed from tox.ini) as well as removed uses of deprecated setf
Add set of new core functions to the stdlib.
Moved the auto-import code from compile_expression to
HySymbol so that "even?' in this style expression will
be found and imported.
(list (filter even? [1 2 3 4 5]))
The core functions are documented in 2 sections, one
for basic functions like (even?..) and (nth ...) and
one for all the sequence functions.
Update: This removes all the caching decorators, misnamed as
'lazy-seq' from the core. All sequence methods now just use
yield to return a generator, so they are Python-lazy
Further refinements of core functions
Cleaned up the docs to use 'iterator' instead of 'generator'
Fixed drop to just return the iterator instead of an extra
yield loop. But also added a test to catch dropping too
many.
This will let us implement common functions seen in other lisps,
and allow them to be importable, without explicit imports. The goal
is to keep this as small as we can; we don't want too much magic.
I've added `take' and `drop' as examples of what we can do.
