It also offers access to -lower-level functionality like all Posix system calls, TCP/IP sockets -and a full-featured regular expression library. This is embedded into -a general-purpose programming language with real data types, -extensive, syntactically clean control constructs and "real" quoting -rules. - -Scsh is also a full implementation of R4RS Scheme with some -non-standard behavior (required for scripting). As a result, a wide -varity of exiting Scheme code can be used. The underlying Scheme -implementation is a virtual machine for compact byte code. - -The name of the installed program is "scsh", the manpage is scsh(1), -other documentation is in (/usr/local/)lib/scsh/doc. To load slib, -install slib into /usr/local/lib/slib and run (load "slib-init.scm") -in scsh. It requires no additional setup (paths or such). The emacs -interface is in the original distribution in emacs/. For documentation -see doc/user-guide.txt. - -Differences between FreeBSD port and generic scsh release: ----------------------------------------------------------- - -1) When hitting C-d (end-of-file), scsh asks 100 times for -confirmation. I changed the default to do this just once. Set constant -*y-or-n-eof-count* in scsh/rw.scm to change it. - -2) The original scsh sends a mail to the scsh authors every time you -make the package. The FreeBSD port doesn't. The authors of scsh would -appreciate it if you do a `(cd work/scsh-0.4.4 && make .notify)` after -you build this package. - -3) A symbolic link ${PREFIX}/share/doc/scsh to the documentation is -created. - -4) Some basic description text files from the distribution base dir -are copied to lib/doc. The emacs directory is copied into -lib/scsh/emacs. scsh's default is not to install these files. - -5) Some /usr/tmp -> /var/tmp |
