Plaintext

This is the PLT software package folder for MacOS.
IMPORTANT:
After unpacking this distribution, run the Setup PLT application in
the plt folder.
Applications
------------
The following are the applications:
DrScheme -- the Scheme development environment
DrScheme Jr -- a text-only version of DrScheme
MzScheme -- a text-only Scheme interpreter
MrEd -- a graphical Scheme interpreter
mzc -- a Scheme compiler
Help Desk --- for Help (also built into DrScheme)
DrScheme relies on MrEd (i.e., the DrScheme application launches
MrEd with special startup instructions), and DrScheme Jr and mzc rely
on MzScheme. You may not have some of these applications, depending
on which distribution you downloaded.
Compiling
---------
If you downloaded the source code distribution instead of the standard
distribution, you must compile MzScheme and MrEd before using the PLT
software (including DrScheme).
For compilation instructions, unpack the Compactor archive
plt:src:cw.sit.hqx, producing plt:src:cw. Read the README file in
plt:src:cw.
If there is no plt:src:mzscheme folder, you did not download
the source code distribution. In that case, you should be ready to
run.
