# 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](https://interlisp.org/medley/using/docs/medley/). See [the Medley repository](https://github.com/Interlisp/medley) for * [Issues](https://github.com/Interlisp/medley/issues) (note that maiko issues are there too) * [Discussions](https://github.com/Interlisp/medley/discussions) (Q&A, announcements, etc) * [Medley's README](https://github.com/Interlisp/medley/blob/master/README.md) 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, ``` sh $ sudo apt update $ sudo apt install clang make libx11-dev ``` ``` $ 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](https://github.com/Interlisp/medley/blob/master/README.md) for more.
