The easiest way to install is via the existing generated Scheme code.
The requirements are:
* A Scheme compiler; either Chez Scheme (default), or Racket
* `bash`, with `realpath`. On Linux, you probably already have this. On
a Mac, you can install this with `brew install coreutils`.

* `bash`, with `realpath`. On Linux, you probably already have this.
On a Mac, you can install this with `brew install coreutils`.
On Windows, it has been reported that installing via `MSYS2` works
(https://www.msys2.org/). On Raspberry Pi, you can bootstrap via Racket.
By default, code generation is via Chez Scheme. You can use Racket instead,
by setting the environment variable `IDRIS2_CG=racket` before running `make`.
If you install Chez Scheme from source files, building it locally,
make sure you run `./configure --threads` to build multithreading support in.
