How to upload files to Edwin

It might be a stupid question, but I can't figure it out for life, and I can't find a link online that answers my question.

I am using Edwin (this is my first time with Emacs) to follow along with the MIT Opencourseware 6.001 class and I can't figure out how to download the file.

At startup, I type Cx Cf to create a new test.scm file. Then I enter some schema code and press Cx Cs to save it.

But if I close Edwin, start it back up and type Cx Cf test.scm, I just get a clean list. If instead I type Mx dired, scroll to test.scm and hit RET, I still get a clean list. The file takes up some space in windows, so I don't think the problem is with saving, but rather with loading (especially since I can't load the ready-made .scm files provided by MIT either)

I am running MIT / GNU Scheme on Windows 7 if that matters ...

There is an open bug report for this: http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?35250 .

a little late for a timely response. This is how I do it:



  • Create a function in a file using Notepad (or its best cousin, Notepad ++)
  • Save the file with a .scm extension. Place it somewhere you can remember.
  • download said file like this (don't forget double \\): (load "c:\\path_to_your_folder\\your_file.scm")

  • You now have access to your function.

I changed the Edwin version as the bug report mentioned above and the error about Edwin cannot open the file actually disappeared. However, a new question arises: in some cases, the Ctrl key has no effect, so if this error is not very important to you, the best way is to still use this new version.
