This manual, along with the sources to Oaklisp and "The Oaklisp Langauge Manual", can be found at: f.gp.cs.cmu.edu: /usr/bap/oak/ftpable/ [128.2.250.164] Note that this site, along with most others at CMU, imposes a curious restriction in that you can't specify '..' in paths. You'll therefore have to cd directly to the specified (no browsing 8-). Also, I corresponded with Barak last month, and he mentioned that the implementation of Oaklisp is also described in a chapter of "Topics in Advanced Language Implementation" (ed. Peter Lee, MIT Press, 1990). Good luck! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adrian Ho, EECS (pronounced "eeks!") Dept.
