I am looking for a version of the Scheme programming language which has been ported to 386 Unix (I have ESIX 5.3.2D, but that's probably not that important). Two of the better-known versions, MIT Scheme and Yale's T don't seem to support the 386. I have gotten a smaller interpreter called "scm," but I'm afraid it's a little _too_ small. Any information would be appreciated. Pat -- -- Patrick R.

It's public domain, it's been posted, it's small and extendable--and it runs on a 386. It contains bindings for X, Xt and Motif and on OSs, that support dynamic linking, it will allow extensions to be loaded at run time. The interpreter can be dumped and restarted from disk any time. The Berlin Technical University does not maintain an FTP archive, but I just checked with uunet and its available there at version 1.2. Version 1.3 isn't released yet. I think it's a darn good hack. |> Pat |> -- |> -- |> Patrick R.
