   I was recently was told that there was an ICON Programming
   language interpreter that had been posted onto the net
   in some unremembered newsgroup sometime in the not too
   distant past.  

arizona.edu is the Home of Icon.  Here's a copy of a part of

	arizona.edu:icon/README

I don't see a number for the Icon RBBS, but I'll bet a message
to the contact listed would extract that pretty quickly, as
well as instructions for ordering tapes & floppies.

There are a couple of ICON books out as well.

Good luck.

1.__Introduction

   Most of the files listed below are available both via an
anonymous FTP from arizona.edu and from the Icon RBBS.

   Most of the files are the same for FTP and the RBBS, although
some are too large for practical transfer over telephone lines
outside the local calling area.

   If you download a copy of Icon, please let us know:
