1.5 SUITABLE ML COMPILERS
1.6
1.7 -You use two different Standard ML compilers: Poly/ML version 2.03 or later
1.8 +You can use two different Standard ML compilers: Poly/ML version 2.03 or later
1.9 (from Abstract Hardware Ltd) and Standard ML of New Jersey (Version 0.93 or
1.10 later). Poly/ML is a commercial product and costs money, but it is stable and
1.11 efficient; moreover its database system is convenient for interactive work.
1.12 -SML of New Jersey requires lots of store and disc space, but it is free and
1.13 -its code sometimes runs faster. Both compilers are perfectly satisfactory for
1.14 -running Isabelle.
1.15 +SML/NJ needs lots of store and disc space, but it is free. Recent versions of
1.16 +SML/NJ are significantly faster than 0.93, but beware of many
1.17 +incompatibilities among them; you might be forced to edit the file
1.18 +Pure/NJ1xx.ML.
