incremented from 1.0 to 1.1 to reflect the reorg described here.

* scheme-indices.texi (R5RS Index, Guile Extensions Index): Use
@unnumbered rather than @chapter for these indices.
* guile.texi (Top): A little top-level reshuffling, with the aims
that: (1) the `Guile Scheme' (reference) part of the manual
becomes the `Guile API Reference', and covers both Scheme and C
interfaces; (2) non-API-reference material such as the `Basic
Ideas in Scheme' chapter is collected together to form a new part
`Programming with Guile'. This new part will contain general
documentation on using and programming Guile in both Scheme and C,
including - for example - awareness of GC when C programming, how
to use the snarf macros, how to debug ...

appear together in the printed manual.

debugging.texi.

become a chapter in ...

procedures, SRFI-19 Date object and accessors, SRFI-19
Time/Date/Julian Day/Modified Julian Day converters, SRFI-19 Date

2001-10-05 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
* scheme-evaluation.texi (Fly Evaluation): Removed documentation

2001-08-30 Neil Jerram <neil@ossau.uklinux.net>
* guile.texi (Top): Group all index nodes together so that

The change log for files in this directory continues backwards
from 2001-08-27 in ../ChangeLog, as all the Guile documentation
prior to this date was contained in a single directory.
