  9. An efficient implementation of the CLU programming language/system is now
  10. available for the VAX under 4.1bsd. The user interface is nearly identical
  11. to the TOPS-20 version of CLU, and includes a compiler, linker, assembler,
  12. run-time system, extensive debugging environment, and a powerful real-time
  13. display text editor (written in CLU) with a number of CLU-related features.
  14. The CLU reference manual is available from Springer-Verlag, Lecture Notes in
  15. Computer Science 114. The system is available for free with the proviso
  16. that it not be used for commercial gain. The complete system (all sources
  17. and binaries) is about 16Mb; a bare bones system is about 3Mb. The system
  18. is not available over a network; to get a copy, send a written request
  19. specifying VAX/4.1bsd and a magtape to

  25. We (currently) pay the return postage. The default tape format will be
  26. tar cb 20 .
  27. of a directory hierarchy. In this format, an 800 foot magtape will suffice.
  28. If you want a different format, make sure you specify it. All we have is a
  29. TS-11 drive. And please, no queries about a VMS version. We are starting
  30. work on one, but don't hold your breath. And no, we don't have a version
  31. for any other machines or operating systems except the 20 under TOPS-20.
