Where might I find an introduction to ML (preferably the SML/NJ variant)?
I don't really want to go out and buy a textbook yet, as I'm just trying to
evaluate the language and see if it will do what I want.  A journal article
or FTPable tech report would be ideal.

			thanks, tom lane

I asked:
> Where might I find an introduction to ML (preferably the SML/NJ variant)?

A couple of kind souls recommended Robert Harper's tech report "Introduction
to Standard ML", which is about 100pp and is exactly what I needed.

It's available in LaTeX format by FTP from princeton.edu.  Fetch all the
files in /pub/ml/incoming/harper-notes, and run main.tex thru LaTeX.  (An
output main.dvi file is already there, but it wouldn't display on my system.
Your mileage may vary.)

			thanks to all, tom lane
