DOCTOR 6
C 4
NAME
doctor - interact with a psychoanalyst
SYNOPSIS
/usr/games/doctor
DESCRIPTION
Doctor is a lisp-language version of the legendary ELIZA program of Joseph Weizenbaum. This script "simulates" a Rogerian psychoanalyst. Type in lower case, and when you get tired or bored, type your interrupt character (either control-C or Rubout). Remember to type two carriage returns when you want it to answer.

In order to run this you must have a Franz Lisp system in /usr/ucb/lisp.

AUTHORS
Adapted for Lisp by Jon L White, moved to Franz by John Foderaro, from an original script by Joseph Weizenbaum.
BUG
It shows how impressed people were willing to be way back then.
