tlc-lisp
unfortunately i've seldom been home lately. volunteered for:

a. a three day tutorial,demo, paper session at the computer faire
b. acm talk in sf
c. three day seminar
d. new course at santa clara on lisp, logo, object-oriented  stuff

all start happening in one week.

the major problem is a local machine to debug on. i gave a  copy to
a friend on the basis that he'd get it running on a superbrain for  me,
but  i've been unsuccessful in getting him to perform.

i called the superbrain people before making this last version, and they
told me which parts of low memory are sacred. i moved my stuff accordingly
and now works on other interrupt driven machines. i have NOTHING in page
zero except NIL's pname which gets installed in the default CPM tty buffer.
since i do my own tty handling, that buffer doesn't get touched.

george's message said he'd tried it on the locally made machine and
(GC) still gave 0 as value-- it's supposed to. he didn't say whether or
not it died, and if so how. he said if he should try it on the superbrain--
answer is yes.  this is a bad situation, trying to debug long distance. i
wish i had a superbrain here (not at all clear what to do about his local
hardware). unfortunately, tlc is losing money for me, and i cnat
afford to buy a "brain" myself.  but that' s another story.

i'll send a copy of this to george, and try to find another source
of "brain"s.
