Some portability problems fixed. Newly updated files (lowercase .z rather than uppercase .Z) in these directories are compressed with patent-free gzip (no relation to zip). Source for gzip is available from: prep.ai.mit.edu:pub/gnu/gzip-1.0.7.shar prep.ai.mit.edu:pub/gnu/gzip-1.0.7.tar 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, 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.
