Is there a Snobol interpreter for the Mac? If not, is there any PD 68000 version? I'll take any PD version and translate if necessary. Thanks. Jeff uucp: ...{harvard, seismo, ut-sally, sri-iu, ihnp4!packard}!topaz!shulman arpa: SHULMAN@RUTGERS Delphi: JEFFS GEnie: KILROY CIS: 76136,667

I assume you mean Snobol-4, since I can't imagine why anyone would want
one of the older versions. Unfortunately, I don't know of any Snobol
implementations for the Mac.
However, you might consider contacting the Icon people at Arizona - many
of the Snobol intelligentsia went there and collaborated on Icon. There
is no Icon for the Mac yet (as far as I know), but they are working on
"large memory model modifications" to the standard Icon distribution which
when completed should facilitate a Mac implementation. In any event, I
think the chances are excellent that if anyone has heard of a Snobol-4
for the Mac, it would be the Icon people.

Don't know about the Mac, but someone I know just bought a copy of SPITBOL (SPeedy ImplemenT of snoBOL) for the IBM PC. The fellow who originated main frame Spitbol (Dewar) has a company selling the pc version. Perhaps he could be interested in writing a Mac version. If you're interested, let me know and I can supply a way to contact him. -- Robert Cohen San Ramon, California (Where's that?
