[comp.lang.lisp] CLOS and XCLOS sources wanted

mac@trantor (Mike McDonald) (12/16/88)

  I am looking for the sources for CLOS and XCLOS. I have copies that are 
dated Nov. 1987. Postgres.berkeley.edu used to have them but postgres says 
they are on camelot.berkeley.edu but there's nothing there.

  Thanks for any help you can give,

  Mike McDonald

Sorry Mike... I moved to UW Madison and they told me that the sources were
eating up too much space.  I now have them for public ftp on my uVAX at UW.
It is named cheddar.cs.wisc.edu (128.105.2.113) and relevant files are:
	xcl.tar.Z
	xclos.tar.Z
	pcl-03.17.88.tar.Z

The PCL is only for ExCL (or Allegro) and not for other LISPs.  If you need
the 3/17 version for other LISPs, I have that on-line.

As far as XCL and XCLOS are concerned, no, I haven't updated them to X11 (i.e.
XCLOS using CLX) or the newest PCL.  I don't have a great LISP (just KCL),
and I haven't been able to spend much hacking.  Hopefully, I will get time
over the Xmas break and redo XCLOS using CLX.

If you want more in-depth information about XCLOS, let me know.  I haven't
documented all the new features (most having to do with increasing performance
with event handling).

You might also be interested in cling.tar.Z (interface to Ingres) and soh.tar.Z
which is a prototype implementation of a shared object hierarchy (this needs
to be run w/ POSTGRES.. talk to the Postgres people at berkeley about 
availability).

Hope this helps.
