    We have two symbolics, a 3675 and a 3620, on a network with several
    other machines, Including a VAX 750 and A SGI Personal Iris.  I would
    like to port code from the SYMBOLICS environment to the other machines.
    Does anyone have advice for me?  Two approaches spring to mind: either
    get LISP compilers for the other machines or get a translator to convert
    the LISP code I write into another language like C or FORTRAN.  I can
    see lots of problems with either approach.  Surely this issue has already
    been dealt with.  Thanks for the help.

Longer term, you might want to attend the Symbolics International Users' Group 
Conference, June 12 - 16 at MIT.

The topic you are asking about is a major theme of the conference and
many of its technical sessions.
