Scsh 0.6.3 Release notes -*- outline -*-
Scsh 0.6.4 Release notes -*- outline -*-
We are pleased to release scsh version 0.6.3. This release provides an
interface to the md5 library to produce 128-bit fingerprints of
strings and files. Scsh now also starts much faster and comes with an
additional heap image which has the debugging information reduced and
is therefore much smaller. This release reintroduces the
select/select! procedures from scsh 0.5.X and adds a more convenient
interface to select. The new structure scheme-with-scsh combines the
exports of the scsh and scheme structures.
We are pleased to release scsh version 0.6.4.

it, pointers to discussion forums, and a description of the new features in
