  Isabelle/ML is a somewhat augmented version of Standard ML, with various
  add-ons that are indispensable for Isabelle development, but may cause
  conflicts with independent projects in plain Standard ML.

  The Isabelle/Isar command \<^theory_text>\<open>SML_file\<close> supports official Standard ML within
  the Isabelle environment, with full support in the Prover IDE
  (Isabelle/jEdit).

  Here is a very basic example that defines the factorial function and
  evaluates it for some arguments.

  The subsequent example illustrates the use of multiple \<^theory_text>\<open>SML_file\<close> commands
  to build larger Standard ML projects. The toplevel SML environment is
  enriched cumulatively within the theory context of Isabelle ---
  independently of the Isabelle/ML environment.

  Isabelle/ML and SML share a common run-time system, but the static
  environments are separate. It is possible to exchange toplevel bindings via
  separate commands like this.
