We are using MIT scheme at Telecom Bretagne, an engeener school in France
(brittany). We have received new machines but we can't compile
the 7.0 version beta for sun 4, SunOs 4.1.
Is there a new version that runs on sun 4.?
We can't use FTP for the moment (the connection must be installed
with the INRIA).
Is it possible to have a tape, that we will send back ?
Do you know other universities that are using MIT Scheme on Sun in France ?
Thank you.

Subject: Sun4 diffs to Scheme
Here are the changes which needed to be made to the release 7.0 of scheme as
distributed from Zurich to run on a Sun4/Sparc. I have only had a chance to do
minimal testing of the executable, but it seems to operate as expected and the
changes are so minor that I see no reason to expect that problems will arise.

This should compile all the relevant files and link a scheme.
- Note that we have not tried Scheme on anything but BSD, Ultrix, and

all primitives will be implemented. Hopefully it will come up,
however. The main problem might be the file "microcode/unix.c".
