Hello, guys, I've found that there is a good http-client library called drakma, but when I tried to load it with asdf, it came into 13 dependences on other libraries, and I just wonder, if there is any simplier way to use http client? I need just to load html of a certain page. Do I have to use drakma or is there any other useful lib?

Re: HTTP client

Quicklisp is the easy way to download dependencies.

Re: HTTP client

Thank you, found S-HTTP-CLIENT library doing work fine. DRAKMA needs asdf version greater than 3.0.0. Yes, quicklisp is the easiest way to load libs.
