Hi netlandians, A quick question to all, I did as instructed to retrieve the PC-Lisp.exe file from this group. All of the check sums were as specified. I downloaded the resulting binary via kermit (two times, one at 1200, another using my direct link at work at 9600). The final DOS file bombs my computers, a Compaq Deskpro at home and an IBM PC/AT at work. The question? Does this program really work, or have I been duped? Any comments or help will be appreciated. And I would like to emphesize that I do appreciate the author's intention of freely distributing this software, and will probably go out and buy an inexpensive Lisp compiler/interpreter if I can't get this to work soon. Thanks in advance... -- Tim Margeson (206)253-5240 tektronix!tekigm2!timothym @@ 'Who said that?' PO Box 3500 d/s C1-465 Vancouver, WA. 98665

I ran the GraphicsDemo program ..... a little slow but nice. ( but then its LISP! :-) ) The checksums I calculated were Not the ones that were stated! but as I as I say, it downloaded and runs, no bugs found yet. I'm on a 3B2 SysVr2, so checksum may calculate differently, don't know what machine the author is on. Ken Latham, AT&T-IS (via AGS Inc.), Orlando , FL uucp: ihnp4!bsdpkh!latham
