Hi.  I would like to request an addition to the programming languages
section of your web site.  Thanks.


New release of <a href = "http://www.mlton.org">MLton</a> Standard ML
compiler.

Version 20020410 of MLton has been released.  Changes include support
for Cygwin/Windows, significant performance improvements in generated
code, and support for large heaps and arrays.

MLton is a whole-program optimizing compiler for Standard ML that runs
on X86 machines with Linux or Cygwin/Windows. It generates standalone
executables with good runtime performance, is SML 97 compliant, and
has a mostly complete basis library. It has support for profiling and
a fast C FFI. It has lots of useful libraries, including a fast
implementation of IntInf based on the GNU multiprecision library.
