Franz lisp for the IBM RT.

	Has anyone ported Franz lisp for the IBM RT/PC. I know there is
a common lisp available for $$$ but I was hoping someone took the time
to make a public domain port of Franz lisp.

				Thanks in advance,

	Well I found the closest thing which is Kyoto Common Lisp (KCL)
and is available via ftp from gatekeeper.doc.com. KCL is public domain
but you need to fill out a form and mail it in when copying it.

	What I realy wanted was not a Common lisp however. I am actualy
looking for an object oriented lisp other than Xlisp that will run on the
RT. Once I was turned on to OOPS for aplication programming, I assumed every
thing else did, including common lisp. I am doing development under Xlisp
and use messages extensively, as a mater of fact I use object methods to
completely replace lisp function declarations. Although my main environment
will be Xlisp I would like to find an alternative and faster public domain
UNIX based lisp that supports OOPS to do cross developement.

	I have made significant speed ups to xlisp and can make them available
to interested parties. I am still unable to give out the windows code for
those of you who are following my progress on that. I would like to create
a cross environment between xlisp and another faster UNIX based lisp
so I will be able to produce code for the PC under xlisp and have it run
significantly faster on my IBM RT UNIX machine.

	In summary I am looking for a public domain Object Oriented Lisp
to run on my IBM RT. I am also interested in public domain OOPS-LISP
environments that may be easily ported to the IBM RT if they have not been
already.
