It provides much of the power of CLOS/Lisp with an algol-ish syntax and the currently available implementations are compilers. Gwydion Dylan compiles to 'C' which is then compiled by the local 'C' compiler. Functional Developer (Windows product) produces native code. Implementations available for Windows, Unix, BeOS, etc: http://www.gwydiondylan.org http://www.functionalobjects.com Just trying to save you from C++ :-) Chris. -- http://www.double.co.nz/lojban
