We've received a number of requests for information about MIT Scheme
distribution, so here it is:

MIT CScheme can be obtained in the following ways:

* Internet FTP:

    Use anonymous ftp to "zurich.ai.mit.edu" (user "anonymous", any
    password) and read the file "pub/scheme/README" for more
    directions.

    To obtain the beta release of the Liar native code compiler, read
    the file "pub/liar/README".  This release is for Sun 3 and HP 9000
    series 300 (68020 models) only.

    Alternatively, telnet to "prep.ai.mit.edu" as user "scheme",
    password "scheme".  Use the `ftp' program to obtain either the
    file "dist.tar" or "dist.tar.Z" (a compressed version).  The
    directory "dist.split" contains the file "dist.tar.Z" split up
    into 250 kbyte pieces.

* Magtape:

    The cost of a distribution tape is $200 to cover our copying and
    administrative expenses.

    Send a check for $200 payable to MIT to:

	Scheme Distribution
	MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
	545 Technology Square
	Cambridge, Ma. 02139

    Please specify the tape format:

	* Unix tar format, 9-track magtape, 1600 bpi
	* VMS backup format, 9-track magtape, 1600 bpi
	* Unix tar format, HP CS/80 cartridge tape
