[net.ai] Small Computer Lisps?

bac%Mitre-Bedford@sri-unix.UUCP (07/06/84)

   While everyone's on the topic of Lisps for various systems,
does anyone know of any decent Lisp implementations for CP/M
or MS-DOS (Z-80 or 8088 based systems)?  All I know of is a
version called MULisp, from Microsoft, but I have no idea
whether it's useful, efficient, etc.

   Is AI and Lisp going to remain tied to mainframe machines,
or will it ever reach the growing population of microcomputers?

	There's a detailed review of two Lisps for the IBM-PC
(MULisp is one of them) in the July issue of BYTE.

phaedrus@eneevax.UUCP (07/11/84)

This month's BYTE (July) has an article on LISP for the IBM PC.  It is
a review of Integral Quality's IQLISP and The Software House's muLISP.
It is on page 281 and the authors are Jordan Bortz and John Diamant.

I certainly wouldn't expect a grown up computer to.

For anyone interested, the net addresses of the authors of the
previously mentioned BYTE review of muLISP and IQLISP:

Jordan Bortz:		decvax!cbosgd!osu-dbs!gang!jordan
and
John Diamant:		ihnp4!pyuxgg!diamant (until Aug. 10th)
			decvax!cwruecmp!diamant (after that)

I apologize for posting this to the net, but it was originally in the
article and was accidentally edited out.
