Although -SLIB is not _neccessary_ to run SCM, I strongly suggest you obtain and -install it. Bug reports about running SCM without SLIB have very low -priority. SLIB is available from the same sites as SCM: - - * swiss.csail.mit.edu:/pub/scm/slib-3b1.tar.gz - - * ftp.gnu.org:/pub/gnu/jacal/slib-3b1.tar.gz - -Unpack SLIB (`tar xzf slib-3b1.tar.gz' or `unzip -ao slib-3b1.zip') in -an appropriate directory for your system; both `tar' and `unzip' will -create the directory `slib'. - -Then create a file `require.scm' in the SCM "implementation-vicinity" -(this is the same directory as where the file `Init5e5.scm' is -installed). `require.scm' should have the contents: - - (define (library-vicinity) "/usr/local/lib/slib/") - -where the pathname string `/usr/local/lib/slib/' is to be replaced by -the pathname into which you installed SLIB. Absolute pathnames are -recommended here; if you use a relative pathname, SLIB can get confused -when the working directory is changed (*note chmod: I/O-Extensions.). -The way to specify a relative pathname is to append it to the -implementation-vicinity, which is absolute: - - (define library-vicinity - (let ((lv (string-append (implementation-vicinity) "../slib/"))) - (lambda () lv))) - -Alternatively, you can set the (shell) environment variable -`SCHEME_LIBRARY_PATH' to the pathname of the SLIB directory (*note -SCHEME_LIBRARY_PATH: SCM Variables.). If set, the environment variable -overrides `require.scm'. Again, absolute pathnames are recommended. - - - -File: scm.info, Node: Making SCM, Next: SLIB, Prev: Installing SCM, Up: Installing SCM - -2.1 Making SCM -============== - -The SCM distribution has "Makefile" which contains rules for making -"scmlit", a "bare-bones" version of SCM sufficient for running `build'. -`build' is used to compile (or create scripts to compile) full -featured versions (*note Building SCM::). - -Makefiles are not portable to the majority of platforms. If `Makefile' -works for you, good; If not, I don't want to hear about it. If you -need to compile SCM without build, there are several ways to proceed: - - * Use the build (http://swiss.csail.mit.edu/~jaffer/buildscm.html) - web page to create custom batch scripts for compiling SCM. - - * Use SCM on a different platform to run `build' to create a script - to build SCM; - - * Use another implementation of Scheme to run `build' to create a - script to build SCM; - - * Create your own script or `Makefile'. - - - -File: scm.info, Node: Editing Scheme Code, Next: Debugging Scheme Code, Prev: SCM Session, Up: Operational Features - -3.7 Editing Scheme Code -======================= - - -- Function: ed arg1 ... - The value of the environment variable `EDITOR' (or just `ed' if it - isn't defined) is invoked as a command with arguments ARG1 .... - - -- Function: ed filename - If SCM is compiled under VMS `ed' will invoke the editor with a - single the single argument FILENAME. - -Gnu Emacs: - Editing of Scheme code is supported by emacs. Buffers holding - files ending in .scm are automatically put into scheme-mode. - - If your Emacs can run a process in a buffer you can use the Emacs - command `M-x run-scheme' with SCM. Otherwise, use the emacs - command `M-x suspend-emacs'; or see "other systems" below. - -Epsilon (MS-DOS): - There is lisp (and scheme) mode available by use of the package - `LISP.E'. It offers several different indentation formats. With - this package, buffers holding files ending in `.L', `.LSP', `.S', - and `.SCM' (my modification) are automatically put into lisp-mode. - - It is possible to run a process in a buffer under Epsilon. With - Epsilon 5.0 the command line options `-e512 -m0' are neccessary to - manage RAM properly. It has been reported that when compiling SCM - with Turbo C, you need to `#define NOSETBUF' for proper operation - in a process buffer with Epsilon 5.0. - - One can also call out to an editor from SCM if RAM is at a - premium; See "under other systems" below. - -other systems: - Define the environment variable `EDITOR' to be the name of the - editing program you use. The SCM procedure `(ed arg1 ...)' will - invoke your editor and return to SCM when you exit the editor. The - following definition is convenient: - - (define (e) (ed "work.scm") (load "work.scm")) - - Typing `(e)' will invoke the editor with the file of interest. - After editing, the modified file will be loaded. - - - -File: scm.info, Node: Problems Compiling, Next: Problems Linking, Prev: Automatic C Preprocessor Definitions, Up: Installing SCM - -2.8 Problems Compiling -====================== - -FILE PROBLEM / MESSAGE HOW TO FIX -*.c include file not found.
