- The beta version of a new experimental prototype-based
- object-oriented system Kevo (version 0.9b2) is now available
- by anonymous FTP from:
-
- ursamajor.uvic.ca (128.189.88.151)
- directory: /ursa/kevo
-
- Although the Kevo system has been built to experiment with
- ideas which are somewhat irrelevant from the viewpoint of Forth,
- the system does bear some resemblance to Forth; in particular,
- the system executes indirect threaded code, and a great deal of
- the primitives are similar to those of Forth's.
-
- Kevo runs currently on Macintoshes (with 68020 or later). System 7
- is recommended, although there should be no problems with older
- Mac OS versions with Multifinder. Kevo creates a lot of windows,
- so a large screen is needed.
-
- The FTP directory contains the (binhexed and compressed) executable,
- some demo programs, a user's guide, and a few papers about the system.
-
- The Kevo system is a research work which is provided 'as is' without
- any warranties or visible support. For further information, send
- comments and questions to: kevo-interest@ursamajor.uvic.ca.
