This is Moscow ML, a lightweight implementation of Standard ML:
The current version 2.00 of Moscow ML
* Implements Standard ML, as revised 1997 (value polymorphism,
default overloading resolution, new types)
* Implements most of the new Standard ML Basis Library, including
the most common input/output facilities in TextIO and BinIO.
* implements separate compilation
* can produce compact stand-alone executables (a la Caml Light)
* supports quotations and antiquotations, useful for metaprogramming
* includes several new libraries

This is a good version of the SML language if you have limited space.
If you have sufficient disk space to hold it all, the sml-nj port
- which generates native code - might be for you.
