After following the instructions in /mit/scheme/ATHENA.README, a user
(and I) were unable to get scheme to work inside of emacs. The
instructions followed were:
To run Scheme in Emacs, first load the new interface libraries:
M-x load-file<ret>
/mit/scheme/dist/etc/scheme.el
M-x load-file<ret>
/mit/scheme/dist/etc/xscheme.el
Then, to run R3RS Scheme:
C-u M-x run-scheme<ret>
/mit/scheme/vaxbin/scheme-em
Or, to run 6.001 Scheme:
C-u M-x run-scheme<ret>
/mit/scheme/vaxbin/scm6001-em
In both cases, a buffer named *scheme* is created with more
information. At this point any attempt to evaluate expressions
results in an error message in the mini-buffer "Scheme process died,
reset it? (yes or no) " If one types 'yes', emacs hangs. If one
types 'no' nothing is changed, ie. any further attempts to evaluate
expressions fails also.
