[comp.windows.x] Picasso

2hneiced@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu (05/22/91)

Has anyone heard about or used Picasso ? This is supposed to be
a CommonLisp-based X-window widget package originating from
U. of California, Berkely.
Any information about Picasso would be of great help.

Thanks in advance.

Prasad.

Picasso is an experimental, graphical, DBMS front-end.  It works with
and requires the POSTGRES system from UCB (POSTGRES is an extended
RDBMS with many of the features of object-oriented DMBSs).  Both Picasso
and POSTGRES are available via anonymous ftp from postgres.berkeley.edu
(sorry, I can't find the number).
