   If only scsh would start up faster & take less memory! I'd use it all
   the time.

Brian's working on technology for linking the heap image into the text
segment of the vm. That should give you what you want.

   Btw, under "TODO" you speak of a sh-like syntax for scsh. Wouldn't it
   make more sense to provide a graphical interface (a filemanager) ?
   This should be The Right Thing for everyday use, and if a user needs
   something more advanced, he can always go right into scheme.  

Oh, yes! We'd love an X interface, but it hasn't bubbled up to the top
of my list, so I have to keep hoping someone else will do it. What *I*
would like is an Edwin port to S48. With scsh, I could make edwin be
the shell... How does that grab you?

Thanks for the report.
