From: Dave Farber <farber%udel-eecis1.delaware@udel-ee.arpa> I received today the preliminary release of Bob Dewar's SPITBOL. As the Daddy of SNOBOL 0,1,2,3 and the Grand Dad of Snobol 4, it is a very good job. (Spitbol is a compiler dialect of Snobol 4 and is similiar to the Spitbol on the IBM 360 and the Univac 1100. It works very well and will be a very valuable string processing addition to the PCs language family. It can be ordered from: Robert B.K. Dewar SPITBOL Orders 73 5th Ave NY, NY 10003 It costs $195.

From: Robert A. Lerche <XA.W51%STANFORD.BITNET@Berkeley> IBM/PC Macro SPITBOL is available from Robert B. K. Dewar SPITBOL Orders 73 5th Avenue New York, NY 10003 for $195 (New York residents add 8.5% sales tax). It's VERY good, but does have a few bugs. It is certainly faster than anything else I've used on the PC.
