I'm CC'ing the gambit list. See the script make_meroon in http://www.math.purdue.edu/~lucier/software/Meroon/ Basically, it just concatenates some files to make two large files pre_meroon.scm and _meroon.scm, uses old-load.scm to load each form in pre_meroon.scm in order, and then compiles _meroon.scm. I suppose one can get this to work on Windows. Note that this version of Meroon has setters of the form <class-name>-<slot-name>-set! rather than set-<class-name>-<slot-name>!. I'd be interested in seeing Simmer. Brad On 07/22/2014 05:41 AM, Riverola Garcia, Josep wrote:

Hello: I was an early user of meroon for my simulation system Simmer, written in MacGambit for the Mac. Sometime after, that the school moved to Windows and I stopped ising Gambit and Meroon. Now (twenty and some years later!) I would like to update Simmer. But I dont have a version of Meroon running on Gambit, nor I have the expertise to rewrite it. I have contacted with Christian Queinnec but he was not able to help, since he is no longer supporting Meroon. I believe you have such a sysytem. Please, would you give me a pointer on obtain a version running on Windows and Gambit-C?

I found this discussion of Julia, a language in the tradition of Common Lisp, Scheme, and Dylan, but designed for scientific programming, quite interesting. In particular, it has a lot of similar design choices to Gambit plus the Meroon object system that I’ve been using in my numerical partial differential equations course.
