Configuration
-------------

These constants and procedures describe characteristics of the Scheme
and underlying operating system.  They are provided by all
implementations.

 - Constant: char-code-limit
     An integer 1 larger that the largest value which can be returned by
     `char->integer'.

 - Constant: most-positive-fixnum
     In implementations which support integers of practically unlimited
     size, MOST-POSITIVE-FIXNUM is a large exact integer within the
     range of exact integers that may result from computing the length
     of a list, vector, or string.

     In implementations which do not support integers of practically
     unlimited size, MOST-POSITIVE-FIXNUM is the largest exact integer
     that may result from computing the length of a list, vector, or
     string.

 - Constant: slib:tab
     The tab character.

 - Constant: slib:form-feed
     The form-feed character.

 - Function: software-type
     Returns a symbol denoting the generic operating system type.  For
     instance, `unix', `vms', `macos', `amiga', or `ms-dos'.

 - Function: slib:report-version
     Displays the versions of SLIB and the underlying Scheme
     implementation and the name of the operating system.  An
     unspecified value is returned.

          (slib:report-version) => slib "2d2" on scm "5b1" on unix

 - Function: slib:report
     Displays the information of `(slib:report-version)' followed by
     almost all the information neccessary for submitting a problem
     report.  An unspecified value is returned.

 - Function: slib:report #t
     provides a more verbose listing.

 - Function: slib:report filename
     Writes the report to file `filename'.
