How to compile & run programs written in T (a dialect of Lisp)

Question

I wanna compile and run a program written in the T programming language (a dialect of Lisp) during the years of 1980s. I checked the T Project but it seems only applicable to VAX machines (and accompanied compilers)?

Are there any modern cmpilers for T? Or some modern dialect which is compatible?

Answer 1

This page lists the following platforms that T have been ported to:

• Ultrix (vax)
• Apollo Domain/OS (m68k)
• HP/UX (m68k)
• Mac/AUX (m68k)
• NeXT (m68k)
• SunOS 3 (m68k)
• SunOS 4 and above / Solaris (sparc)
• Encore Multimax (n32k)
• DEC3100 (pmax mips)
• SGI Iris (mips)
• Unix on the Connection Machine 5 (sparc)

The same page provides a Sparc image, so I'd look for a Sparc emulator. For the latter take a look at: Running Solaris Sparc software on X86-64

Also, I'd send a mail to the persons behind the T Revival project.
