There are Common LISP versions of ID3 and ID5 (an incremental ID3) available
from Dr. Dan StClair at the University of Missouri Graduate Engineering Center
in St. Louis, MO. (c0567@umrvmb.umr.edu).  These LISP versions have been tested
on LISP Machines, Vaxes, Sun-4, Mac II (running Allegro), and TI Explorers and 
work fine on all.  There is also a C language version of ID3.

A versionof CN2 in C was in the works this past summer, but I don't know
if it's available yet.  CN2 is another non-incremental inductive learning
algorithm which produces rules instead of decision trees like ID3 does.

good luck,
