>>Look at PopLog.  It's got an okay Common Lisp and a Prolog, plus Pop-11.

Thanks for the plug. However, I must make a couple of minor corrections.
1. Standard ML is also available in Poplog as an optional extra.

>>It's cheap or free to academics.

2. It is (was) free only to SERC/Alvey-funded academics in the UK, though
academic discounts for others are generally large (e.g. 80 to 85%).

>>Try aarons@cvaxa.susx.ac.uk

3. Although Poplog is developed at Sussex University we don't handle
most of the distribution. We distribute only for UK academics, who should
