This message announces the availability of Scheme release scm4e1.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Scm conforms to Revised^4 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme
|
||
|
and the IEEE P1178 specification. Scm is written in C and runs under
|
||
|
Amiga, Atari-ST, MacOS, MS-DOS, OS/2, NOS/VE, Unicos, VMS, Unix and
|
||
|
similar systems. ASCII and EBCDIC are supported.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Documentation is included explaining the many Scheme Language
|
||
|
extensions in scm, the internal representation and how to extend or
|
||
|
include scm in other programs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SLIB is a portable Scheme library which SCM uses.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SLIB-PSD is a portable debugger for Scheme (requires emacs editor).

1. Pathname dependencies:
|
||
|
The init file is hardcoded as /usr/local/lib/scm/Init.scm.
|
||
|
Alternatively, one can set the environment variable SCM_INIT_PATH to
|
||
|
the pathname of Init.scm.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The library files are in /usr/local/lib/slib. Alternatively,
|
||
|
one can set the environment variable SCHEME_LIBRARY_PATH to
|
||
|
the slib directory. Remember to use a trailing / on the
|
||
|
pathname.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. I have -DSICP turn on by default, since I expect this to be the major
|
||
|
reason for this port. This means test.scm will fail on 3 tests in section 6.1.
|
||
|
If strict R4S compliance is important to you, recompile w/o the SICP flag.
