I want to install MIT Scheme on my Mac, I have downloaded the MacOS X binary(x86-64) .
However, I could not make it work using Mac Terminal.
I have tried to follow these articles:
Installing MIT/GNU Scheme on Mac OS X Leopard
Installing MIT Scheme on Mac OS X
but it seems out of date and does not work.
So, I'm looking for a simple method which allows me to write Scheme code using Mac Terminal.
I have struggled for hours to try to install it.
UPDATED FOR EL CAPITAN :
The best way that I've found was from here :
For the 32-bit version , run this command:
sudo ln -s /Applications/MIT\\:GNU\\ Scheme.app/Contents/Resources /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-i386
Then enter your administrator password, and run this command:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-i386/mit-scheme /usr/local/bin/scheme
For the 64-bit version , first run this command:
sudo ln -s /Applications/MIT\\:GNU\\ Scheme.app/Contents/Resources /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-x86-64
Then enter your administrator password and run this command:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-x86-64/mit-scheme /usr/local/bin/scheme
And that's it! Now you should be able to use MIT Scheme in your terminal by typing "scheme" into the command line:
Homebrew makes it easy for you. On Terminal, type:
ruby <(curl -fsSkL raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go) ; brew install mit-scheme
Done!
Edit
The install script has been moved:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" ; brew install mit-scheme
For Yosemite 10.10.3:
After installing X11.app and homebrew,
$ brew tap homebrew/x11 $ brew install mit-scheme
I found it easier when a maintained package manager such as homebrew covers all the dependency and build stuff.
Edit: simply
$ brew install mit-scheme
would do. X11 is now optional instead of dependence. There is still an --with-x11
option which requires whole Xcode.
您可以使用以下命令使用自制软件安装方案
brew install mit-scheme
If you have the latest version of Mac system, El Capitan 10.11.2 , You might need to do something different than above.
The first command will be same. For the 64-bit version , first run this command:
sudo ln -s /Applications/MIT\:GNU\ Scheme.app/Contents/Resources /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-x86-64
Then enter your administrator password and run this command:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/mit-scheme-x86-64/mit-scheme /usr/local/bin/scheme
Note: The difference is you need to put local between /usr/ and /bin/
Type scheme in the terminal to see if it works. If you get the following screenshot, that means you succeed it.
You definitely need to put local there. The reason is this, Apple improved OS security in OSX 10.10 (rootless), and changes to the general system-wide binaries (such as /usr/bin) is not permitted.
If you are having trouble with the accepted answer from @virgil-ming, try this:
$ brew install Caskroom/cask/xquartz
$ brew install mit-scheme
Same idea, of course, but this got me up and running when brew tap homebrew/x11
responded with multiple conflicts.
As always, remember to brew update
then try again when you are having problems, a la Homebrew's troubleshooting guide .
UPDATE FOR MAC OS HIGH SIERRA:
Worked for me just by executing (if you are using Homebrew):
brew install mit-scheme
If you are using docker, and I recommend you do:
docker run -it inikolaev/alpine-scheme
will drop you right into a scheme REPL.
If you are using MacPorts, the command is similar to what others have posted for homebrew -
sudo port install mit-scheme
That set me up pretty well on OS X 10.8.5
I came across a problem that the 10.x versions of the MIT/GNU Scheme do not support Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan . In fact, it requires Mac OS X 10.13 or higher .
The topmost version supporting older Mac OS X versions is MIT/GNU Scheme 9.2 .
Unfortunately for users of the M1 chip , the official website for MIT-Scheme states in bold font that there is " No support for Apple silicon " :
At this time, we are unable to support new macs using Apple's silicon (the M1 chip). Although we support the ARM architecture it's based on, Apple's design uses W^X restrictions that conflict with the way that MIT/GNU Scheme manages memory. Our native-code implementation requires both write and execute permissions on memory, and fixing that is a significant redesign that's unlikely to happen in the near future.
