<p>Lisp 1.5 had only <code>READ</code>, which read one S-Expression at a time, and various forms of <code>PRIN*</code> functions, which printed to the line printer. There was also <code>PUNCH</code>, which wrote to a card punch. It does not seem that there was any concept of an interactive terminal.</p>
<p>See Appendix E, <code>OVERLORD - THE MONITOR</code>, and Appendix F, <code>LISP INPUT
AND OUTPUT</code>.</p>
<p>For our purposes, to save the current state of the Lisp system it should be sufficient to print the current contents of the oblist to file; and to restore a previous state from file, to overwrite the contents of the oblist with data from that file.</p>
<p>Hence functions SYSOUT and SYSIN, which do just that.</p></div></div><div class="public anchor" id="var-SYSOUT"><h3>SYSOUT</h3><div class="usage"><code>(SYSOUT)</code></div><div class="doc"><div class="markdown"><p><strong>TODO</strong>: write docs</p></div></div><div class="src-link"><a href="https://github.com/simon-brooke/beowulf/blob/master/src/beowulf/io.clj#L20">view source</a></div></div></div></body></html>
