-FreeBSD port of MIT Scheme-7.3
-
-This port has been put together out of the scheme runtime binaries
-out of the linux.tar.gz distribution. These binaries are identical
-for any i386 running an operating system with a unix-like filesystem.
-For this reason, a makefile for building the runtime, compiler, and
-edwin binaries has not been included. One patch is neccesary to
-build the runtime binaries due to a problem with one of the system math
-libraries (mail me if you want it). Otherwise, this patch was not
-included because building the entire system takes a VERY LONG TIME,
-about as long as a 'make world' in /usr/src (no one said scheme was
-fast).
-
-The distfile was put together from the linux distribution and the
-microcode sources. This was to avoid using the official MIT
-distfiles and having to download the linux compiled binaries
-(the scheme and bchscheme binaries, statically linked, 2M each).
-
-To use the official distfiles, you must obtain the linux.tar.gz and
-the src-microcode.tar.gz from ftp://ftp-swiss.ai.mit.edu/pub/scheme-7.3.
-Unpack linux.tar.gz, and remove dist-7.3/bin/*. Unpack src-microcode.tar.gz
-and apply the patches from the port, now you can build the microcode.
