Sorry to use precious bandwidth, but I tried Archie and Knowbots first with no hits. This is my last resort. I want the TeX version of the XLISP 2.0 LANGUAGE REFERENCE by Tim Mikkelsen. The ASCII version is very easy to find--it's available on many archive sites and is part of the WINTERP dis- tribution. The cover blurb of the manual says there exists a TeX version. Can anyone tell me where I might ftp to get said version? Can anyone tell me how to contact Tim Mikkelsen by email? TIA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Since this has come up a couple of times, I thought I should respond. Yes, I do have 'sort of' a version of the reference in TeX. This is done via an internal HP formatting language front end that is translated into TeX. It is very depedent on some HPTeX macros and fonts. I haven't bothered to go through and make the thing 'pure' TeX. If you are really interested, I could be coerced into sending a printed copy. (I have already gotten in touch with Brian.) If anybody is really keen on this and wants to do the conversion, let me know. Tim Mikkelsen
