[comp.lang.misc] LOGO for MS-DOS

kline@cs.arizona.edu (Nick Kline) (09/18/90)

I'm looking for a public domain implementation of Logo for MS-DOS, which
my girlfriend, who is a High School geometry teacher, would like to
use in her class.

I've looked around a fair amount.  Does anyone know where I could look?

thanks,

nick

Where can I get LOGO for MS-DOS?  Are there any shareware/PD versions or
look-alikes available.  Thanks for any info you can give.

There are several versions, all expensive, some of which may still be
available through the usual channels.  Digital Research's `DR Logo' and
LCSI's Logo for the IBM PC are excellent commercial versions, though
both are a bit dated now. 

Nimbus Logo for the RM Nimbus is an MS-DOS version with sprites and
parallel processing, but it runs only on the RM Nimbus machine and not
on the IBM-PC or clones.  Marketed by Research Machines, Oxford,
England.  (I declare an interest: I wrote this one.)

Have a look at LCSI's new Logo Writer: it is very different from the
older Logo's and has a number of fascinating innovations. 

The address I have for LCSI is:

A few years ago I picked up a shareware logo called ladybug from a
bulletin board.
