Who do I contact to get a distribution tape for VAXIMA (the VAX version of
MACSYMA) for a VAX 11/750 running 4.2 BSD UNIX?
Thank you, Peter Cramton

VAXIMA is no longer distributed, as it was at one time, by Berkeley. The rights to MACSYMA were sold to Symbolic and VAXIMA infringed those rights. An earlier, public-domain version of MACSYMA is available from Argonne Natl Lab, which runs the National Energy Software Center for the US Dept of Energy. Their address is 9700 S. Cass Ave., Argonne, Ill 60439 (312) 972-7250. You also get MIT's NIL (Newly Implemented Lisp) and MACSYMA runs interpretively on top of NIL. Better expect to limit MACSYMA to one user at a time, cause it is a real hog. Larry @ jpl-vlsi ------
