** Removed or replaced non-free code
Some files in the previous versions of scsh did not conform to
scsh's BSD-style license. We therefore removed the directory
scheme/infix and asked the copyright holders of the rest of the
code to put their code under a compatible license. The code of the
sort package has been replaced by a new version (see below).
** New code for sorting
The old package SORT from Scheme 48 has been replaced by a
sophisticated library written by Olin Shivers for the withdrawn
SRFI 32.
** Separate documentation of the library directories search facility
The manual now contains a separate section that describes the
library directories search facility. The description of the
respective switches has been adapted accordingly.
** New module CONFIGURE
The new module CONFIGURE permits access to some of the values
obtained during the run of the configure script.
** Argument processing more robust ** Argument processing more robust
