I have >an ANCIENT version (JAN 86 - v1.0) of this, but haven't had any problems Sorry, but the Commodore/Metacomco stuff is most emphatically NOT Common Lisp. It is based on something called "Standard Lisp" that originated at the University of Utah. With some work (SMOP!) you could make it look super- fically like Common Lisp, but the lack of lexical closures will keep it from really being a Common Lisp.
