[comp.lang.misc] Logo from The Lisp Company

Around 1984 I got a copy of TLC (The Lisp Company) LOGO for my CPM
system.  I also got a 'sprite' graphics board that would allow me to
do graphics from Logo.  In the next few years I wrote a great deal of
software in TLC Logo. (Hey don't laugh, TLC Logo is pretty
powerful, it's a nice cross between Logo and Lisp with the best
features of both)

I'm trying to make the final transition to MS-DOS and get rid of the
two Xerox 820-II systems.  The last software to move is the TLC Logo
software.

I'd really like to find a version of TLC Logo that runs on the PC.  Do
any of you know how to get in touch with The Lisp Company?  From the
book "Thinking About TLC Logo" (1984) the authors are John Allen, Ruth
Davis and John Johnson; I assume that they worked for The Lisp
Company.  A contact with one of them may offer some leads.

I realize that all the graphics stuff will need to be modified, but in
most cases it's fairly localized and should not present a problem.
I'd rather not be forced to redo all the other logic.

The other alternative is to find a new Logo.  Can anyone make a
recommendation for a Logo that they like?

Please email to me, I don't think the group is interested.

Thanks for your help!!
