I would like some help, and am willing to try to make it worth your
time to help me.  I want the binary (executable) code for the ST
version of a Scheme implementation called Scm.  I know where to ftp
the C source code for Scm, but I do not have a C compiler on my ST
(nor do I want one).  The Scm package includes a makefile for 
compiling Scm using the GNU compiler on the ST.  I would like someone
to ftp the Scm package, compile it, arc it, uuencode it, and mail it
to me.  In return I will send  that person, via 1st class US mail,
their choice of two games, either Balance of Power (by Mindscape)
or The Pawn (by Rainbird).  Both of these games are paid-for, complete
in original boxes, with manuals, etc.  I only need one copy of Scm, so this
offer is made on a first come, first served basis.  Drop me a line...

A few words about Scm, straight from comp.lang.scheme:

  Scm conforms to Revised^4 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme
  and the IEEE P1178 specification.  Scm is written in C and runs under
  Amiga, Atari-ST, MacOS, MS-DOS, OS/2, NOS/VE, VMS, Unix and similar
  systems.  ASCII and EBCDIC are supported.

  SCM can be obtained via FTP (detailed instructions follow) from:
  altdorf.ai.mit.edu:archive/scm/scm4b2.tar.Z
  prep.ai.mit.edu:pub/gnu/jacal/scm4b2.tar.Z
  nexus.yorku.ca:pub/scheme/new/scm4b2.tar.Z

  ftp altdorf.ai.mit.edu [18.43.0.246] (anonymous)
  bin
  cd archive/scm
  get scm4b2.tar.Z
                    or
  ftp prep.ai.mit.edu (anonymous)
  bin
  cd pub/gnu/jacal
  get scm4b2.tar.Z

  `scm4b2.tar.Z' is a compressed tar file of the C code distribution.

This is a nice package.  So far as I know it is not available on the
Atari archive at umich, though it ought to be.
