Well, I don't know about "people" but that was what I was asking about. (-:
The code from Forgy is about 100K (including comments).  But I believe
the XLISP-PLUS does not have the 64K limit.

You are right about the Franz LISP.  But as i also mentioned, there is
a Common LISP version that was done at CMU.

I have tried, without success to find one.

Finally, I have heard that CMU has produced something called Para-OPS
which is supposed to be a "parellel"version.  I believe the source code is C.
Has anyone heard about that?

Cheers,
