SCM: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 05:16, 4 April 2016

A open source multi-platform implementation of Scheme written in C, SCM is an interpreter but it includes a Scheme-to-C compiler called Hobbit but that program generates C files that can be linked with the SCM executable. The program is primarily developed on Linux and Microsoft Windows these days but it has support in the source for the Amiga, DOS, the Atari ST, MacOS, OS/2, NOS/VE, Unicos and VMS, Unix and uses mostly common I/O libraries so should be a fairly easy port to other operating systems that have some POSIX compatibility.

Versions

Last known version: SCM version 5f2 (2015-07-15)

This is only provided in binary format or distribution packages for Linux and MS Windows, other platforms will have to be built from source.
Prerequisites

SLIB Portable Scheme Library
