Fwd: [Jscheme-user] Problems loading contributed scheme code+install stuff

[Timothy J H. <tjh...@br...>]

Hi Joseph,

I've created a make script for linux/macOSX systems in 
jscheme/bin/make.sh
and fixed a bug in the jscheme/src/build/make.scm file which prevented 
it from
working correctly on linux/macOSX systems. The change has now propogated
into the anonymous CVS (it takes about a day).

It would be great if you (and others) could check out the latest 
version of JScheme
from CVS and see if it builds correctly on your platform.

 >  bin/make.sh

will build the system and

 > jscheme -cp lib/jscheme.jar jscheme.REPL

will run the system. I've tested it with jdk1.5 on a SUSE linux and it 
works well.
Ken had fixed the
     (.append sb "abc")
problem a few months ago, but we haven't made a release since the fix.
If this current version builds everywhere, then I'll make another 
release (JScheme 7.2).

Best,
---Tim---
