Dear Snow-List,

I installed snow-generic today on Slackware 12.0 with both Guile and
Gambit-C 4.2.2.

1) I had to change:

,----
| (let* ((range-lo (string->bignum "1168000000"))
|        (range-hi (string->bignum "1200000000"))
|        (s start-time))
|   (if (not (and (bignum>= s range-lo) (bignum<= s range-hi)))
|       (failed `(and (bignum>= ,s ,range-lo) (bignum<= ,s ,range-hi)))))
`----
to

,----
| (let* ((range-lo (string->bignum "1168000000"))
==>      (range-hi (string->bignum "1210000000")) 
|        (s start-time))
|   (if (not (and (bignum>= s range-lo) (bignum<= s range-hi)))
|       (failed `(and (bignum>= ,s ,range-lo) (bignum<= ,s ,range-hi)))))
`----

otherwise I got "None of the installed Scheme implementations support
Scheme Now!"

2) When I try to install a package, this is what I get:

,----
| /home/joel/lisp/scm/.snow/current/bin: Zshell> snowman install srfi-1

This is with gsi in my $PATH.

Please let me know where to start.

Thanks,
Joel
