[net.micro.amiga] XLISP 1.4

From: Daniel.Zigmond@SPICE.CS.CMU.EDU

The sources for XLISP 1.4 can be found at seismo in
mod.sources/Volume1/xlisp.* and at sumex in <info-mac>xlisp.shar for
people on arpanet.  They have been posted several times to net.sources so I
hesitate to do it again but if some USENET folks really want them just send
me mail and I will.

Note, however, that there is already an xlisp 1.5 (the author, David Betz,
simply never got around to telling almost anybody) and an experimental
release of xlisp 1.6.  Both of these contain significant improvements over
previous versions.  I have them running on a Mac but my sources are
incomplete.  I will try to put complete sources on the net within a few
weeks.

*Warning: Somewhat commercial:*

I am the primary author of a book on XLISP (it currently covers 1.5 but will
soon be updated to 1.6).  Once xlisp is running on the Amiga, I would
like to offer a prepublication draft of the manual to any fiarly experienced
people who are willing to report technical (or even typographical) errors in
it.  The book will be published by Harper & Row in August.
