Furthermore I think I will re-read the Documentation of how blake
mcbride ported lispf4 and decide to remove the 'ported' and / or the
name or specify it in a more clear way. If Blake McBride added nothing,
it would be reasonable by the quality of messed up code f2c produced to
just write

description: LISPF4 is an InterLisp interpreter written in FORTRAN by
Mats Nordstrom, it supports much of the InterLisp Standard.


...while I'm not yet clear about Interlisp vs Interlisp-D, two different
families often thrown into just Interlisp.

Furthermore I will adjust the homepage (terrible mistake with the ".git"
at the end, it's annoying.

And when this is done and I understand more and have more time to
dedicate to historic archiving purposes, I will start working on my own
interlisp (this could take a while until I can start). Or I find a
better, cleaner, free implementation of interlisp available.. so far I
just found interlisp and interlisp-d ones on archiving sites which we
will not be possible to run or package or both of them.
