Aunc.897 fa.unix-wizards utzoo!duke!unc!whm Thu Jun 11 21:16:15 1981 Icon It should be pointed out that Icon from Univ of Ariz is available for no charge (maybe $10), while Macro-Spitbol costs several hundreds. We have Macro-Spitbol from DISC on our 11/40 and there is no way to save an executable file, is this still true for Macro-Spitbol?

If anyone has done any performance evaluations on Icon 3 against Macro- Spitbol, I would be interested in seeing the results. Bill Mitchell N.C. State U duke!unc!whm
