I guess it's time to post this again.  XLISP v2.0 for Atari ST, Macintosh,
and IBM PC is available for anonymous FTP on host cs.orst.edu, in the
directory pub/xlisp.  If the operators of the archives at lakesys.UUCP
will contact me, I will be happy to mail the ST stuff to them so those
without FTP access can get XLISP v2.0.

BTW, the functions that XLISP v2.0 implements are compatible with those
in Common LISP (of course, the object stuff is not in Common LISP).  But
XLISP v2.0 does not include all of Common LISP (in particular, defstruct
is missing -- sigh).
