Jeff Shager’s Genealogy of Eliza project has added an 1100-line Perl emulator written by James Markevitch for the 1966 version of BBN-LISP for the PDP-1 computer that can run Bernie Cosell’s original LISP version of doctor.

Markevitch writes in the comments

This is a Perl hack to implement the 1966 version of BBN-LISP for the PDP-1 computer. This was written primarily to run the 1966 LISP version of the “doctor” program (aka Eliza) written by Bernie Cosell. The intent is to be compatible with the version of LISP described in The BBN-LISP System, Daniel G. Bobrow et al, February, 1966, AFCRL-66-180 [BBN66]. However, because many of the quirks of that version of LISP are not documented, The BBN-LISP System Reference Manual April 1969, D. G. Bobrow et al [BBN69] was used as a reference. Finally, LISP 1.5 Programmer’s Manual, John McCarthy et al [LISP1.5] was also used as a reference. N.B. The 1966 version of BBN-LISP has differences from later versions and this interpreter will not properly execute programs written for those later versions.

You can download the Perl Lisp emulator, the doctor lisp code and the script file from the elizagen github repository.
