IEEE Scheme conformance test file



This message announces the availablility of a conformance test file
for IEEE Scheme.

ftp altdorf.ai.mit.edu (anonymous)
cd archive/scm
get test.scm

  `test.scm' is Scheme code which tests conformity with the IEEE spec.
Of course, no finite test can guarantee correctness but this file has
been very helpful in debugging a new scheme implementation.  Test.scm
includes some degenerate but legal cases, for example (let () (define
x 9) ...).  It does not yet test the input and output functions.  I
will include additions that are mailed to me (jaffer@ai.mit.edu).

This directory also contains the distribution version 1.1 of scm.  Scm
conforms to Revised^3.99 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme
[Draft August 31, 1989] and the IEEE spec.  Scm runs under Unix, VMS,
and Microsoft C on IBM PCs.  See the file `README' for more details.
