language called XLISP. This one is IS_INTERACTIVE because it needs to connect to the X server while building. I don't know if it's possible to build a package or not. Submitted by: "Eric L. Hernes" <erich@lodgenet.com> this one was mentioned in the linux journal recently. I've used it before so I made up a port.

This is XLISP-STAT 3.44 Release 3 for generic bsd systems (with simple
|
|
tektronix graphics from the gnuplot system), or X11.
|
|
|
|
XLISP-STAT is a statistical environment based on a dialect of the Lisp
|
|
language called XLISP. Originally developed for the Apple Macintosh,
|
|
XLISP-STAT is now also available for UNIX workstations using the X11
|
|
window system and for Microsoft Windows. To facilitate statistical
|
|
computations, standard Lisp functions for addition, logarithms, etc.,
|
|
have been modified to operate on lists and arrays of numbers, and a
|
|
number of basic statistical functions have been added. Many of these
|
|
functions have been written in Lisp, and additional functions can be
|
|
added easily by a user. Several basic forms of plots, including
|
|
histograms, scatterplots, rotatable plots and scatterplot matrices are
|
|
provided. These plots support various forms of interactive
|
|
highlighting operations and can be linked so points highlighted in one
|
|
plot will be highlighted in all linked plots. Interactions with the
|
|
plots are controlled by the mouse, menus and dialog boxes. An
|
|
object-oriented programming system is used to allow menus, dialogs,
|
|
and the response to mouse actions to be customized.
|
|
|
|
Updates to this system will be posted periodically in the anonymous
|
|
ftp directory of umnstat.stat.umn.edu (128.101.51.1).
|
|
|
|
A tutorial introduction to the system is available. It is written
|
|
primarily for the Macintosh version, but the differences to the UNIX
|
|
version are minor; see below. The tutorial is available as a set of
|
|
LaTeX files in xlispstat.doc.tar.Z at the ftp address above.
