We are looking for implementations of Common Lisp and Prolog that run under
VM/CMS, to be used for undergraduate/graduate instruction. I'd appreciate
any information people might have about the following:
(1) Does anyone know of a decent Common Lisp that runs under VM/CMS?
(IBM Lisp isn't suitable for our purposes, since it's rather different
from Common Lisp).
(2) Has anyone had experience using IBM Prolog? How natural would it be to
use for one accustomed to C-Prolog (or any other Prolog that uses the
syntax described in Clocksin and Mellish)?
(3) Does anyone know of a Prolog that runs under VM/CMS that's closer to
C-Prolog? Or, for that matter, does anyone know whether C-Prolog can
be made to run under VM/CMS? cross@wsu.CSNET (George Cross) (07/23/86)
Intermetrics is selling VM/CMS Common Lisp. The educational price was
recently $4000. The documentation indicates a quite complete implementation
with interfaces to Intermetrics C language available. There is an ad
for it on p32 of AI Magazine, V7, Number 1, Spring 1986.

Cognitive Systems may be selling CSI-LISP on top of IBM VM LISP. This
is a rewrite of T, a Scheme dialect. Details in AI Magazine, V6, Number
3, Fall 1985, page 248.
