2004-01-30	* Replaced the SDF parser by a substantially faster Bison/Flex	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	parser (roughly 80x faster). The absolutely latest version of Bison (1.875c) is required for reentrant GLR support, as well as a recent version of Flex (say, 2.5.31). Note that most Unix distributions ship with the prehistoric Flex 2.5.4, which doesn't support reentrancy.
2004-01-15	* Catch SIGINT to terminate cleanly when the user tries to interrupt	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	Nix. This is to prevent Berkeley DB from becoming wedged. Unfortunately it is not possible to throw C++ exceptions from a signal handler. In fact, you can't do much of anything except change variables of type `volatile sig_atomic_t'. So we set an interrupt flag in the signal handler and check it at various strategic locations in the code (by calling checkInterrupt()). Since this is unlikely to cover all cases (e.g., (semi-)infinite loops), sometimes SIGTERM may now be required to kill Nix.
2003-11-25	* Allow integer bindings in derivations.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2003-11-19	* Refactoring: put the Nix expression evaluator in its own library so	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+265
	that it can be used by multiple programs.
