Thanks to all those that answered my request... From: research!grigg!ark@topaz.arpa Re: SNOBOL4 under Unix Dewar Information Systems Corp 9901 Derby Lane Westchester IL 60153 (312) 344-1025 ------------------------- From: oddjob!matt@lbl-csam (Matt Crawford) Your friend should check out the successor to SNOBOL, caled ICON. It comes from the same people (Ralph Griswold, et al.) and is very cheap. (~$50) Versions exist for Vax or Sun under 4.2, PDP-11 under 2.9, and VMS. Contact: icon-project@arizona.csnet or write back for postal address. ------------------------------ From: phr@BERKELEY (Paul Rubin) 1. Look at the interview with Griswold in Byte this month (July) 2. I think Dewar's company (forgot the name) sells a VAX SPITBOL. ------------------------- From: packard!alberta!myriasb!cmt@topaz.arpa (Chris Thomson) I suspect that what you really want is Macro Spitbol. It is available at a modest price (less than $1000) from Dewar Information Systems Corporation (DISC). They are in Oak Park, Illinois. ----------------------- From: packard!ihnp4!tektronix!sequent!merlyn@topaz.arpa I don't know of one, but the person who invented Snobol is on the net. See Ralph Griswold at or ucbvax!arizona!ralph. He also invented "Icon", which is his latest toy. See the bsd tapes for a freebie implementation, or ask him for one of his. Saul -------
