XLISP is a subset of LISP, with object-oriented extensions. I'm interested in getting XLISP on a VMS machine at a small college where I teach. Please reply if you know anyone running this public-domain software.

I have all but completed a book on XLISP which should be published in early 1986 (arrangements are not yet final). I am interested in finding out several things: 1. Who uses XLISP (for any purpose)? 2. What are people doing with XLISP? Learning/teaching lisp? Doing small programming tasks? Etc... 3. Who uses XLISP extensively and might be interested in doing a prepublication technical review of the book (paid and acknowledged)? 4. What sort of XLISP code exists? It would be nice to begin a collection of XLISP functions that are public domain or can be distributed without charge. I am very interested in maintaining such a library. Your response will be greatly appreciated. Dan ----- Daniel Zigmond Carnegie-Mellon University Computer Science Dept.

I am planning to start an INFO-XLISP mailing list. The reasons for this are:
* To exchange XLISP code and ideas
* To provide an easy method of reporting bugs
* To facilitate the distribution of XLISP revisions (few people
are aware that there is an XLISP 1.6 already and 1.7 is near
completion)
* To collect enhancements to XLISP and collect the changes
necessary to port XLISP to new machines
If you are interested in joining the list, please send mail to me at
one of the addresses below. I will need your name and net address. I would
also appreciate knowing what machine you use to run XLISP. I will then keep
you informed about the INFO-XLISP details (such as the address) as they become
final.

I'd be interested in being added to the XLISP mailing list

I'm about to start a moderate project in a yet to be chosen LISP dialect. I am only familiar with Franzlisp.

the XLISP mailing list and got a "user unknown" response from the mail daemon.
Please add me to the list. I'm interested in getting XLISP 1.6 (have 1.4),
and run on a Morrow Pivot 1 (MSDOS environment).

I've gotten a tremendous response from my posting about INFO-XLISP that I think a net.lang.xlisp is in oredr too. This would simply be a USENET version of my INFO-XLISP list with a two-way gateway (postings to INFO-XLISP show up on net.lang.xlisp and postings to net.lang.xlisp get sent to those on INFO-XLISP). Please send a note to me if you are interested in this so I can try to have it established. Dan

Please send me a copy If someone on the net actually has XLISP 1.6 then why don't they post it to mod.sources, or, at the very least, net.sources? It seems that there is a great deal of interest.

I have a copy of 1.6, except that one of the files seems to be missing and it will not compile for that reason (well, not link anyway).

It would be much better to post it via mod.sources, where the moderator makes sure it gets out successfully, in pieces that won't be trashed by various mailers. A lot of previous postings (tvx, microemacs, etc.) get into the syndrome of "We got pieces 1,3,5,7; please repost 2,4,6,99", and XLISP (even the 1.4 version) is large enough to get hit with the same thing. I haven't used it yet, but the volume of requests for it seem to be about the size of the package, so it's probably time to post. John Nelson has provided a good service to the net; let's use it.
