New version number 2.1d, and name changed to XLISP-PLUS to aid in
differentiation.
Many compilation options have been removed to provide more consistant
code. There have been bug fixes in the xlobj (problems with 32 bit
compilers, and special variable binding), gccstuff, and unixstuf
(SYS V support) files. A bug causing (type-of 'x) to return CONS has
been fixed
Documentation is overhauled, and is somewhat simpler because of the fewer
compilation variations.
New features are rational numbers and readtable-case.
Added Amiga support.

No change to the version number -- this is a maintenance upgrade.
Three additional bugs have been identified and fixed. The first corrects
a problem in typep that caused the type NUMBER to never match. The
second implements *dos-input* for the 80386 XLISP, and corrects a minor
problem with dribble in that version.

No change to the version number -- this is a maintenance upgrade.
There have been two bug fixes made to this version. The first corrects
problems with save/restore and binary files when the 80386 XLISP is used
and the second corrects problems with string streams during garbage
collections that print messages.
In addition a new version of go32, DJ Delorie's DOS extender, is being used.
This one is VCPI compatible as well as XMS compatible (still not DPMI).
It is also possible to use it without an 80387 using his new 80387 emulator.
Put the file emu387 in the directory with your binaries (lets say "c:\bin")
and then set the environment variable: "set go32=emu c:/bin/emu387" -- note
the forward slashes. XLISP will now use the 80387 emulator, even if an 80387
is present.

This archive contains a copy of the source file dldmem.c with a bug fixed.
The version number has been revised to 2.1c. Please change file xlisp.c to
match.
Also included are new executable files. Please delete any existing
80386 XLISP executables because of distribution licensing problems and
use this executable which has been compiled with the GNU C compiler and
uses DJ Delorie's DOS extender, go32. While this version does not run in
VCPI or DPMI environments, it does offer virtual memory (swaps to disk)
and will spawn a DOS shell with almost the entire lower memory free (I've
incorporated Ralf Brown's SPAWNO into go32!).
