- I have SCM, a free, copylefted Scheme implementation that is
- fully R^4RS-compliant, running on my Linux system. Is anyone else
- interested? I can upload the necessary binaries to a Linux site if
- wanted. Or ftp to altdorf.ai.mit.edu and get the source yourself and
- compile. SCM's only major flaw (that I've found at any rate) is that
- it doesn't support bignums. Then again, the source code is there :-)
-
- I would be very interested in hearing about MIT-Scheme if
- anyone has compiled it and gotten it running. It's huge, and it would
- be a major pain for me download (what with disk quotas and all), so I
- am loathe to go get it and compile it myself, but they do have a
- version that's supposed to compile for i386 machines (v7.2), and in
- fact, Linux is specifically mentioned as one of the PC-Unixes
- ("Unices"?) it should compile on, in the readme files. Anyone out
- there got it running under Linux?
-
- If you want me to upload SCM, then email me or post to c.o.l.
