IPC Free Lanuguages Disc

			      GVG - 30 April 1985

This disc contains two small-but-useful languages for the Integral PC: XLISP
and PILOT.  Each is contained in its own folder: "lisp_files" and
"pilot_files".

XLISP is a small version of LISP, written by David Betz as an amusement; it's a
fairly well-made product for a freebie, useful for learning elementary symbolic
and object-oriented programming.

Among its many distinctions, XLISP supports object-oriented programming
constructs, and provides direct access to "C" function calls.

It also provides a baby PROLOG interpreter, written on top of XLISP.

An excellent reference manual will be found in the file "xlisp.doc".

Source code is included with XLISP, in the "xlisp_files/source_files"
directory. It's all written in C; it can be recompiled for almost any personal
computer that supports C.  For pointers on recompiling the interpreter, see
"xlisp_files/source_files/xlisp.h".

XLISP takes up about 128K of memory on the IPC.

HP-CWO provides this program to customers on request; we don't make a profit on
it.  We also don't support it.  Any problems with the interpreter should be
referred to Mr. Betz.

PILOT is a language used for creating computer-aided instruction programs.  A
manual is included in the "pilot_files" directory; if you are interested in
looking at some sample PILOT programs, please look at the IPC's "Tutor" disk,
which is written in PILOT.

Again, this is not an HP-supported product.
