	How do I get a copy of Xlisp for my 80286 machine running
MS DOS? I have all the appropriate C and Pascal compilers and the
Turbo Assembler. I have been working on an implementation of a subset
of Common Lisp written in C and designed to be portable as well as 
reasonably efficient. I for the moment have balked at implementing
packages and the type hierarchy. (typep... etc.), but what I have runs
well and is capable of handling the backward-chaining programs in Winston's
LISP book.
