Mitchell, Ron; Conner, Michael – 1971
Procedures are presented to assist programers with the use of the Coursewriter II preprocessor. The preprocessor was designed to reduce the repetition of effort which takes place from the conception of a course by its author to the time of its use by students in on-line instruction. It accomplishes this by relieving the programer of the tedious…

Novak, Gordon S., Jr. – 1982
GLISP is a LISP-based language which provides high-level language features not found in ordinary LISP. The GLISP language is implemented by means of a compiler which accepts GLISP as input and produces ordinary LISP as output. This output can be further compiled to machine code by the LISP compiler. GLISP is available for several LISP dialects,…
