   Does anyone know where I can find a CL for one of the BSD's (I use 
   FreeBSD, but source that runs on NetBSD is easy enough to deal with)?

I managed to get CLISP to compile but I don't think I got it completely right as
the CLX won't run and I've not managed to get round to trying to sort this out
yet.  I'm still running FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 release at the moment.  You can get
CLISP from ma2s2.mathematik.uni-karlsruhe.de or the CMU AI/LISP repository.  The
FAQ for comp.lang.lisp has details of other Lisps but I've not tried them all.
GCL - GNU Common Lisp a variant on AKCL would not compile for me.  But I'm a
Lisp programmer not a C hacker so if it ain't obvious I give up.
