`SMLofNJ` implements a subset of the structure of the same name
provided in <:SMLNJ:Standard ML of New Jersey>.  It is included to
make it easier to port programs between the two systems.  The
semantics of these functions may be different than in SML/NJ.

* `structure Cont`
+
implements continuations.

* `SysInfo.getHostArch ()`
+
returns the string for the architecture.

* `SysInfo.getOSKind`
+
returns the OS kind.

* `SysInfo.getOSName ()`
+
returns the string for the host.

* `exnHistory`
+
the same as `MLton.Exn.history`.

* `getCmdName ()`
+
the same as `CommandLine.name ()`.

* `getArgs ()`
+
the same as `CommandLine.arguments ()`.

* `getAllArgs ()`
+
the same as `getCmdName()::getArgs()`.

* `exportFn f`
+
saves the state of the computation to a file that will apply `f` to
the command-line arguments upon restart.

* `exportML f`
+
saves the state of the computation to file `f` and continue.  Returns
`true` in the restarted computation and `false` in the continuing
computation.
