[comp.lang.lisp] Request: Common Lisp on PC's

jem@latcs1.oz.au (Joan McGalliard) (03/15/91)

We want to port some Common Lisp code to a PC (ie IBM and
compatibles).  I would like to compile a list of CLs
available for these machines.  I have access to Gold Hill,
but that is the only one of which I know.  

Could people please send me the names of any CL on PCs and,
if possible, the name of a supplier and any relevant
comments.  I will summarise the responses.

Thank you

Expertelligence, in Goleta, CA markets Procyon Common LISP (at least
I think its shipping now).

I believe this is an OS/2 product, however.  I have not seen or reviewed
this product.  I believe it is a "full" CL implementation, which would
make it and Gold Hill the only two "full" CL implementations for the PC
world.

Expertelligence says that they won't be shipping until July.  I seems
to remember hearing prices between 1 & 2 thousand when I talked to
them on the phone.

There is a Common LISP for PC machines made by Sapiens Software,
called Star Sapphire Commong LISP.  The current version is 3.1.  It
costs $99 currently (I think), and they offer an academic discount.
as far as I know, the current version is a "Full" implementation (or
at least I haven't had any problems...)
