I've installed Standard ML of New Jersey on Athena for Sun and Linux- this is
an environment for developing and running programs in the ML functional
programming language. A script to launch Emacs in SML mode is included.
To run it:
add smlnj
sml (runs the command line ML interpreter)
smlemacs (launches Emacs in SML mode)
For smlemacs, once the Emacs window opens, "M-x sml" will turn on the SML mode;
this also turns on automatically if you visit an ML source file (.sml
extension). An info page accessible once SML mode is on will provide usage
information.
Documentation is rather sparse- the main documentation site is
http://www.smlnj.org/doc/ and there are many tutorials on the Web.
THe distribution was built with almost all of the available add-ons- see the
end of file /mit/smlnj_v110.49/README.athena for details.
