Lines: 10 (Oh no, this is a nightmare... EVEN our MACII's have a decent common lisp- originally Coral's Allegro Common Lisp now under the Apple aegis) We too relied on having Common Lisp on our NeXT machine. Without it, we are severely restricted and can no longer run our AI system on the NeXT. Ports to other languages or even other dialects of lisp are simply not plausible at this juncture. Without Common Lisp (preferably Franz's), we will have to move completely to our SPARC'S. marsella@cogsci-1.rutgers.edu
