I found out just recently that there were Lisp implementations that
ran on a machine as far back as an Apple ][+. I think one was called P-
Lisp. Does anyone know where I could get a copy of the disk image to
run on my Apple 2e emulator? I've done numerous Googling to try and
dig one up, but no go.

If you can find a 5-1/4" floppy drive, I have a P-Lisp disk. I don't
know if it's still usable; it hasn't seen action in -- God help me -- 30
years. But it would sure be a kick to try it.

Hi Ron,
I still have this machine in my attic and could read the disc and provide
an image file.
My address is
(concatenate 'string (reverse "saerdna") (string ··@) (reverse "ed.aidem-pta"))

Just in case it doesn't work the first time you try... I have
"recovered" some Apple ][+ disks years ago. It seems that some
kind off substance accumulates on the surface of the floppy disk
inside the square case.
You can carefully open the case, remove the floppy disk from
inside, then clean it (use a dry piece of cloth, or maybe slightly wet
-- I can't remember). Put it in the envelope again, wait for
it to become dry again then immediately make a copy.

I've found this:
ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/unsorted/LISP(BootOK).DSK
Probably not what you're looking for, but who knows...

Wow. Funky. It's not Common Lisp, but very interesting, nonetheless.
Thanks!
