资源说明：Moscow ML is a light-weight implementation of Standard ML (SML), a strict functional language widely used in teaching and research.
This is file README for Moscow ML 2.10.1 for Linux/Unix (August 2014)
EXTENT OF THE IMPLEMENTATION
The current version 2.10.1 of Moscow ML
* implements the full Standard ML language, as revised 1997,
including Modules and some extensions
* yet is backwards compatible with versions prior to 2.00
* implements large parts of the new SML Basis Library
* implements separate compilation
* can produce compact stand-alone executables (a la Caml Light)
* supports quotations and antiquotations, useful for metaprogramming
* supports dynamic linking of external functions under Linux (x86
and Alpha), FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, Digital Unix, HP-UX,
MacOS, and MS Windows'95/98/NT/XP/Vista and possibly also 7 and 8.
New in version 2.10.1 of Moscow ML
* ML Server Pages added to examples
* Build system cleaned up a bit
New in version 2.10 of Moscow ML
* Support for dynamic linking and callback from C also under MacOS X
* There may now be 2 G globals (string literals etc) instead of 64 K
* Bugs fixed:
* The HTML files generated for mosmllib now have valid URLs
* Substring.app more efficient
* Recursive structure compilation (elabRecSigExp) fixed
* Several errors in Mosmlcookie
* Misplaced double quote in Msp.ahrefa
* Exception Option wasn't available at top-level
* Linker did not check stamps of linked-in units
* Hash function now much faster on very long strings
* Double alignment constraints now correct with gcc-3.2 and Solaris
* Bug in Polyhash.filter
* Socket library returned only first 16 bytes of UDP datagram
* SML Basis Library changes:
* String and Substring: added concatWith, isSuffix, isSubstring, full
* ListPair: added zipEq, appEq, mapEq, foldlEq, foldrEq, allEq
* Added ArraySlice and VectorSlice structures, also for Char and Word8
* Added find, findi, all, exists, collate to vector, array and
slice structures
* Added collate to List
* Added update to vector structures
* Path.{mkRelative,mkAbsolute} now take record arguments
* Negative Time.time values allowed
* OS.Process: new functions sleep and isSuccess; status not eqtype
* Listsort: added eqclasses, merge, mergeUniq
* Path: added functions isRoot, fromUnixPath, toUnixPath, and
exception InvalidArc (bug report by Henning Niss)
* TextIO: inputLine now have type instream -> string option
* Array: added type abbreviation vector (bug report by Andrzej
Wasowski)
* FileSys: type access renamed to access_mode (bug report by
Henning Niss)
* Byte: unpackString{,Vec} now uses vector slices (bug report by
Henning Niss)
* Unix: added functions fromStatus, textInstreamOf, binInstreamOf,
textOutstreamOf, binOutstreamOf, exit, and added phantom types
to proc (bug report by Henning Niss)
* Timer: added function checkCPUTimes
* Word and Word8: added functions toLarge, toLargeX, and fromLarge
(bug report by Martin Elsman)
* General: added exception Span and made the type of the function
'before' less general (bug report by Henning Niss)
* Added modules to mosmllib:
* Buffer: mutable string buffers for fast and efficient
concatenation of strings
* Hashset: sets implemented by hash-tables
* Rbset: ordered sets implemented by red-black trees
* Redblackmap: maps implemented by red-black trees
* Moscow ML is now developed in the open at github.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Compilation under Unix is best done using GNU make, gcc, and Perl. A
binary installation requires 8 MB disk space; a source installation
requires 25 MB disk space.

Moscow ML owes much to:
* the CAML Light implementation by Xavier Leroy and Damien Doligez
(INRIA, Rocquencourt, France); especially the Caml Light bytecode
generator and the runtime system;
* the ML Kit by Lars Birkedal, Nick Rothwell, Mads Tofte and David Turner
(Copenhagen University, Denmark, and Edinburgh University, Scotland);
* inspiration from the SML/NJ compiler developed at Princeton
University and AT&T Bell Laboratories, New Jersey, USA;
* the good work by Doug Currie, Flavors Technology, USA, on the
MacOS port and many improvements; and
* feedback, contributions, and useful suggestions, in particular
from Jonas Barklund, Mike Gordon, Michael Norrish, Konrad Slind,
Jakob Lichtenberg, Hans Molin, and numerous other people.
