In my current research, I am prototyping using the ANSI Common LISP package (Symbolics Genera 8.0.1), making heavy use of CLOS classes / methods. I would appreciate input / pointers on the following: (1) In the next phase of my work I'm considering incorporating a hueristic part (ie production rules whose conditions could include slot / instance variable values and preferably (more generally) values of arbitrary lisp expressions). Are you aware of any public domain tools that run on top of CLOS that can do this? (2) Browsing tools for displaying inheritance hierarchies, and tools for providing Smalltalk-like point-and-click tables of classes and subclasses, class members. etc. I would especially appreciate knowing about public domain tools (or low-cost commercial tools) that would run on Allegra Common LISP and Symbolics Genera 8.0.1. Thanks in advance for responding. Bill Opdyke opdyke@cs.uiuc.edu
