                     12: .B lisp
                     13: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     14: .I Lisp
                     15: is a lisp interpreter for a dialect which
                     16: closely resembles MIT's M\s-2ACLISP\s0.
                     17: This lisp, known as F\s-2RANZ\s0\ L\s-2ISP\s0, features
                     18: an I/O facility which allows the user to change the input
                     19: and output syntax, add
                     20: macro characters, and maintain compatibility with upper-case
                     21: only lisp systems;
                     22: infinite precision integer arithmetic, and
                     23: an error facility which allows the user to trap system errors in 
                     24: many different ways.
                     25: Interpreted functions may be mixed with code compiled by
                     26: .IR liszt (1)
                     27: and both may be debugged using the
                     28: ``Joseph Lister'' trace package.
                     29: A
                     30: .I lisp
                     31: containing compiled and interpreted code may be dumped into
                     32: a file for later use.
                     33: .LP
                     34: There are too many functions to list here; one should refer to the
