Re: Hello from Spain

Hi there, as I read your post, I'd recommend you to learn and (to love :D) two languages: Common Lisp and Haskell. In the case of the former one you should make yourself familiar with metaprogramming (macros & reader macros) and in the latter case that's where you'll find beautiful connection wi...

Re: UTF-8 in LISP

Trivial UTF-8 was written before Babel existed, but for new projects you might be better off going with Babel. The one plus that Trivial UTF-8 has is that it doesn't depend on any other libraries. Babel is a charset encoding/decoding library, not unlike GNU libiconv, but completely written in Commo...

Re: UTF-8 in LISP

Many lisp implementations support unicode characters in strings so you should look around libraries of this kind: trivial-utf-8, babel.

Re: list and string

As I said the NIL is an evaluated value of the expression you've entered into REPL (the interactive mode you are woking with). That's how the REPL works: prompts you with a prompt line. you enter an expression. prints whatever you write into the output stream (through print/write functions). prints ...

Re: list and string

That nil is the value of the loop expression. And better way to print list this was is via format function.

Code: Select all

(format t "~{~a~^ ~}" mylst)

Re: Little fun things to do in CL

Like changing the text color and mini text based games. I once wrote this code when I was introducing myself to multithreading in Common Lisp. It prints colored text into the console, it uses ANSI escape sequences (on Windows I recommend start using ansicon ; don't miss the release page ), the othe...

Re: cl-2dsyntax

Excuse me, I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone knows where it has moved to? I had to move it to another free webhosting. I was using the Apache mod_rewrite module for subdomains, unfortunately they've broken this functionality (and probably do nothing with it) so I've moved it to the main domain....

finish-output is a blocking call and force-output is a non-blocking call.

Re: Immediate output instead of waiting for the script to fi

There are functions for a buffer manipulation, force-output is probably what are you looking for.
