Idris is indeed available for the ST.  I don't know about Software Toolworks
association with it, but I'm pretty sure that it is available from some
folks called Computer Tools International in Washington State.  CTI did
the port of Idris to the ST.  The Idris operating system for the 68K and
other machines comes from Whitesmiths, Ltd. in Westford, MA.
