[comp.lang.lisp] Question about Lisp on DECstation

rcjvdb@eutrc3.urc.tue.nl (Jan van den Bosch) (02/14/90)

We are using Lisp on VAX Ultrix, it is a part of
Ultrix on VAX. Now we change our system to a DECstation
cluster. The problem is, Lisp is apparently not a part of 
Ultrix/RISC.
My question: does anybody have experience with 
Common-Lisp on a DECstation?

We have experimented a little with Ibuki Common Lisp on a DECstation 3100.
Seems fine.  Our DEC AI rep has recently informed me that Lucid is now available,
but it's a bit pricy.
