For years now, people have posted to the net asking for GNU Emacs and/or Common Lisp for their PC's. A short article in the November BYTE magazine, gives me hope that these items might soon be available. The article says that the new version of the Lattice's C compiler can compile programs larger than 640K and that the extender needed to run these programs can be given away (i.e. no royalties). More good news: the compiler includes a library of many Unix-like functions, including a curses clone. Some bad news: the compiler costs $495. -- Carl Kadie -- kadie@cs.uiuc.edu -- University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Fourth Amendment (War-on-Drugs version): The right of the people to be secure in their persons shall not be violated but upon probable cause *or for random urine tests*
