Link WASM Medley from interlisp.org

[pamoroso]

The Software page of the interlisp.org website announces the WebAssembly version of Medley as coming and links to a Lispcore post with no links to the WebAssembly version, deep in a thread on Interlisp in the browser:

• Coming: Running Medley in the browser!!

We are working on making earlier version of Interlisp-D run in the browser. This example of software preservation will let you access a technology artifact of historical significance.

Given the interest in WebAssembly, as agreed in the February 5, 2025 external meeting we should add a direct link to WebAssembly Meedly with the caveat it's experimental, doesn't yet support a file system, and can't save files.

what the web page says now seems wrong: the "earlier version of Interlisp-D" isn't related to WASM.
Where did that come from?

Emscripten/WASM is unlikely (at this point) to help us with making "earlier version[s] of Interlisp-D" available -- if you can do it with Emscripten then you can do it on a local machine or under the current online scheme -- and we haven't completely successfully run Medley 2.0 Maiko. There are, as I think Larry mentioned elsewhere, Darkstar and DOS based older versions, but they would have to run in a VM hosted environment like current online, not in the browser.
