- siod ver 2.4
- ============
-
- Siod is a small implementation of the Scheme language written in C. Scheme
- is the latest "language of the month" taught in many Computer Science
- departments. It is a variant of LISP. This is a straight port of the Unix
- sources and as such is not WIMP aware. You will need a C compiler and
- UnixLib to recompile the sources.
-
- The sources and executables are available as "pub/riscos/siod2_4" via
- Internet ftp from uts.mcc.ac.uk, login as "anonymous" using your email
- address as a password. Transfer the file in binary mode. The sources are in
- the form of a !spark 2 archive.
-
- The siod sources are copyright "PARADIGM ASSOCIATES INCORPORATED, CAMBRIDGE,
- MASSACHUSETTS." but may be distrbuted freely. All I did was fix up
- the sources a bit for RO3, compile them up and re-package the sources in a
- RO3 format.
-
- The program passes the simple tests described in the package but I've done
- little else to check operation. Both -g0 and -g1 options work on the ARM
- and -g0 should be used if possible as it makes better use of the available
- memory.
