I'm looking for information concerning OPS5 on an Atari ST. Its existence
was mentioned in Vol.4, No. 203 of AIList Digest. Does anybody have any
more information? Is it Public Domain? Price? Does it require Lisp, and if so
which one? Where can I get it? How does it compare to the other versions
that float around the net? Is there any room left in the ST once OPS5 is
loaded?
Thanx in advance.

OPS5 runs on the ST in at least one, possibly two, forms. I have a Cambridge Lisp version that seems to work, that was given to me by John Fitch (the implementor of CL). It has accepted the Monkey-and-Bananas code and another production system. There is also a version of OPS5 ported to XLisp (yes!), but I haven't gotten it to run on the ST. It probably requires XLisp 2.0, which is not yet generally available, and even then may need some hacking. I'd be willing to send that to someone who could try to whip it into shape, since I don't have the time. Hope this helps. =============================================================================== Christopher F.
