           Edinburgh Standard ML 4.1.02   -   Amiga Version

==============================================================================

Description:
------------

    This archive includes the Edinburgh Standard ML interpreter, version 4.

    Version 4 implements standard ML syntax, but does not include any of the
    module system included by systems such as SML-NJ.

Files included:
---------------

  fam                (executable)    Functional Abstract Machine

  smlcore.exp        (data)          Core image containing all core standard
                                     ML features

  config.sml         (script)        Original config supplied with SML

  config_gc_func.sml (script)        Original config + function to toggle
                                     GC messages (see below)

  README.AMIGA       (document)      You're looking at it.

  LIBINFO            (document)      Describes some basic library functions
                                     included in the core (incomplete!!!)

  sml.0              (document)      Nice groff'ed man file, (use "less" or
                                     "man" for best results, "more" is OK too)

  nogc.sml           (ml-source)     Little function added to the core that
                                     toggles GC messages (see below)

  core_array.sml     (ml-source)     array functions

  core_barray.sml    (ml-source)     more array functions
                                     (see below for how to add to core, if
                                      you require them frequently)

System Requirements:
--------------------

  - Amiga with 020+/881+

  - At least 800K contiguous RAM

  - Kickstart 2.0+

  - ixemul.library 39.45+ (tested with ixemul 40 as well)

    The interpreter was compiled for 020+/881+ since any less of a system
would not run it at a reasonable speed anyway!

  Feel free to e-mail questions/comments about the operation of this Amiga
  version of FAM.

  Stick to comp.lang.ml for ML questions, I only ported this for a friend,
  and I know little to no ML!
