I ported C-scheme 6.2.2 to the SGIs and wroite a full GL interface.
It and a number (7 I think) example GL-scheme programs are available for
anonm FTP on godzilla.cgl.rmit.oz.au (131.170.14.2). It is a binary
distribution, but when I reload the source code I'll put it up as well.

Since the work was done a few years ago (for 6.1), the existing code may
not even compile anymore (especially the unexec stuff - heavily IRIX release
dependent I recall).

I started to do a version 7 upgrade but found that the foreign function
interface was changed. It was pretty tedious to change. At the moment I
can't recall the status of that work (> 12 months old now) but it was
pretty close to being done.

I'll post another note when I load the source code.
