Indeed. The sources of LISP 1.5 written in 7090 assembler are available, and there's an emulator, so as a week end project when time permits, (unfortunately not since a few years, given the amount of competiting interests :-/), we may have fun with it. http://www.mcjones.org/dustydecks/archives/2012/08/29/590/ http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?LispOnePointFive http://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/ You may perform further searches with: http://www.masswerk.at/google60/ ;-) But on the other hand, Common Lisp let you run LISP 1.5 programs almost unchanged, with minimal supporting code: http://informatimago.com/develop/lisp/com/informatimago/small-cl-pgms/wang.html For more nostalgia, you may try pjb-computer-paper.el: M-x set-foreground-color RET black RET M-x computer-paper RET C-u M-x computer-paper RET will ask for the modulo (number of colors) and block (group of lines) with which to set the background lines. -- __Pascal Bourguignon__ http://www.informatimago.com/
