DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT FOR COMMON LISP

	This software product is designed for the development
of LISP-based applications. It balances the capability of
symbolic computing with the capabilities of a general purpose
HP-UX workstation. The benefits include:

o An integrated development environment including an EMACS-
  based editor in a mouse-oriented, multiple-window
  environment. The editor is user-customizable.

o A complete, high-performance implementation of Common Lisp,
  based on the book 'Common Lisp' by Guy Steele.

o A range of workstations can be created to scale to the
  desired application. The HP 9000 Series 300 is a modular
  system: the choices include two processors, four display
  systems, RAM from 3 to 7.5 Mbytes, and a wide range of
  peripherals.

o HP-UX access allows an application to leverage the tools
  and libraries of a standard operating system. HP-UX is
  HP's version of the Bell System V UNIX Operating System.
  The Windows/9000, Starbase graphics, NS/9000 and Device
  I/O libraries are all accessible from LISP. Also, the
  LISP environment has direct access to HP-UX to allow a
  developer to utilize system commands.

o Traditional language access allows a developer to use all
  the existing software. FORTRAN, Pascal and C routines can
  be linked to a LISP application. Additionally, LISP can
  be customized to allow code development in C, Pascal and
  FORTRAN with specialized support for editing and debugging.

AI DEVELOPMENT SYSTEMS

o These systems are hardware/software bundles tailored by HP
  to the needs of AI application developers. They include a
  Motorola 68020 CPU with 68881 floating point coprocessor,
  6 MBytes of memory, IEEE 802.3 hardware with software,
  HP-UX multi-user programming environment, and the Development
  Environment for Common Lisp.  A choice of either high
  resolution monochromatic or color display is provided. 

EXECUTION LICENSE FOR COMMON LISP

o This product gives the application developer a low cost
  platform on which to base delivery of a completed appli-
  cation.
