Berkeley FP is an implementation of the functional language, FP, due to John Backus. It was written in Franz Lisp. Owing to a change in the UNIX system calling convention, Berkley FP will *not* work under 4.2 -- core is dumped if any function applications are attempted (FP *will*, however, run under 4.1 and 4.1c). The two system calls, '(syscall 13),' in the file /usr/src/ucb/fp/fpMain.l, *must* be changed to '(sys:time)'. Scott B. Baden U. C. Berkeley (ucbvax!baden, baden@berkeley.kim)
