I'm busy finishing up a port of XLisp to the Macintosh environment, and I'd like some beta-testers to pound on what I've got now to find bugs and suggest enhancements. I'd be especially interested in your suggestions if you regularly use xlisp on any other platform, or Allegro Common Lisp or XLISP-STAT on the Mac, but basically I'd like to enlist people who can try out my application and let me know if it's workable for everyday use. My port is functionally equivalent to xlisp on any other platform; I haven't changed a single line of Tom Almy's code. I've just added Macintosh friendliness and tried to come up with a command window that works like MACL's (although I don't have a copy of MACL, so I'd like to know any ways that its interface works differently from mine). A few things have yet to be implemented (can you find them?), but I want to spend this weekend debugging. If you can chew on this between now and Friday and send me email with plenty of bugs and feature suggestions, and your mailer can handle a 211k binhexed file, then please reply! Otherwise, be patient; I'll release the application and all the source into the public domain for free when I'm finished. -- _/_/_/ Brian Kendig Je ne suis fait comme aucun /_/_/ bskendig@netcom.com de ceux que j'ai vus; j'ose croire _/_/ n'etre fait comme aucun de ceux qui existent. / Nolite te bastardes Si je ne vaux pas mieux, au moins je suis autre. / carborundorum. -- Rousseau
