Correct error for missing byteswap macros in tosfns.h EVAL implementation (#407)
Commit c46fcce307018df6554805050ceb634d72e737c9 fixed a warning for
incompatible pointers to nnewframe() but did not consider that the
order of the DLwords is swapped depending on the endianness of the
system it is running on.  Add the necessary GETBASEWORD() macros to
access the items when constructing the pointer.

Maiko

Maiko is the implementation of the Medley Interlisp virtual machine, for a byte-coded Lisp instruction set and some low-level functions for connecting with Lisp for access to display (via X11) and disk etc.

For an overview, see Medley Interlisp Introduction.

See the Medley repository for

Bug reports, feature requests, fixes and improvements, support for additional platforms and hardware are all welcome.

Development Platforms

We are developing on FreeBSD, Linux, MacOS, and Solaris currently on arm7l, arm64, PowerPC, SPARC, i386, and x86_64 hardware.

Building Maiko

Building requires clang, make, X11 client libraries (libx11-dev). For example,

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install clang make x11dev
$ cd maiko/bin
$ ./makeright x
  • The build will (attempt to) detect the OS-type and cpu-type. It will build binaries lde and ldex in ../ostype.cputype (with .o files in ..ostype.cputype-x. For example, Linux on a 64-bit x86 will use linux.x86_64, while MacOS 11 on a (new M1) Mac will use darwin.aarch64.
  • If you prefer using gcc over clang, you will need to edit the makefile fragment for your configuration (makefile-ostype.cputype-x) and comment out the line (with a #) that defines CC for clang and uncomment the line (delete the #) for the line that defines CC for gcc.
  • There is a cmake configuration (TBD To Be Described here).

Building For MacOS

  • Running on MacOS requires an X server, and building on a Mac requires X client libraries. An X-server for MacOS (and X11 client libraries) can be freely obtained at https://www.xquartz.org/releases

Building for Windows 10

Windows 10 currently requires "Docker for Desktop" or WSL2 and a (Windows X-server). See Medley's README for more.
