  1. Need help from Lisp wizards — looks like I'm missing something simple and obvious (but not so obvious for beginner). I'm trying to build (with ECL) the simple program, which uses ql:quickload to load parse-number, then prints "Hello world". It builds without errors, but resulting binary could not be executed — it prints error message about unknown "ql:quickload" function.

    QuickLisp was installed like described in the official documentation. It works in SBCL, it works in ECL REPL and it has the necessary lines in the ~/.eclrc:

    ;;; The following lines added by ql:add-to-init-file:
    #-quicklisp
    (let ((quicklisp-init (merge-pathnames "quicklisp/setup.lisp"
    (user-homedir-pathname))))
    (when (probe-file quicklisp-init)
    (load quicklisp-init)))
    (ql:quickload '(:slite) :silent t)

    The program, itself, runs successfully if I just evaluate the next code in the REPL:

    (ql:quickload '(:parse-number) :silent t)

    (defpackage :test
    (:use :cl))

    (in-package :test)

    (defun toplevel ()
    (print "Hello world"))

    (progn
    (toplevel)
    (ext:quit))

    And it compiles:

    ecl --eval '(progn (compile-file "test.lisp" :system-p t) (c:build-program "test" :lisp-files '"'"'("test.o")) (quit))'
    ;;; Loading #P"/home/drag0n/quicklisp/setup.lisp"
    ;;; Loading #P"/usr/local/lib/ecl-24.5.10/asdf.fas"
    ;;;
    ;;; Compiling test.lisp.
    ;;; OPTIMIZE levels: Safety=2, Space=0, Speed=3, Debug=0
    ;;;
    ;;; Finished compiling test.lisp.
    ;;;

    But doesn't print "Hello world":

    ./test

    Condition of type: UNDEFINED-FUNCTION
    The function QUICKLISP-CLIENT::QUICKLOAD is undefined.

  11. 🤯 Ah yes, the riveting saga of Common Lisp packaging: where we untangle the ancient hieroglyphics of #ASDF and #Quicklisp so you can finally figure out how to install a library from the '80s. ⚙️🕰️ Because nothing screams "modern programming" like deciphering terms minted before your parents met. 📜

  20. I spent some pleasant hours yesterday hacking on my #openbsd port
    of #lem. The dependency on async-process led me to forking that
    project and making a version which will build the .so it needs if it's
    not one of the three pre-built so. I had to do the same with with the
    terminal extension in Lem itself.

    The #quicklisp and #qlot tools are new to me, and I'm learning just
    enough to be dangerous. I did run into an issue where a qlot git
    dependency will break if the top level program, lem in this case, has
    a .gitignore file. It appears that the qlot cloning will honor the
    parent gitignore.

    All of this makes me very grateful for the work done on the
    #commonlisp tooling over the last decade or so. It's also really
    apparent how much this is all a gift, from others -- because the
    community is so small. I have had to adjust my expectations, and it
    made me realize just how much I take for granted in the software
    ecosystem, and the level of polish and work I have come to feel
    entitled too.

  25. Suppose I use SBCL to develop a Common Lisp project to be built with ASDF and loaded with Quicklisp. To simplify things and leverage defaults should the source tree go under ~/quicklisp/local-projects/ or ~/common-lisp/?

    I respect your adventure.

    It's unfortunate that people are still using portacle.
    It's 8 years old. It's #emacs build is not current, the build flags are ancient!

    The packages do work, but there have been improvements in the last 8 years.

    The emacs config is here. Crufty.
    Slime, Company, Magit, Paredit and Ag.

    github.com/portacle/emacsd

    Common lisp, #sbcl and #quicklisp are not difficult to install.

    The portacle issues should give anyone pause.

    github.com/portacle/portacle/i

    Portacle doesn't do that much. I think it would be better to install things yourself so you know what you have and avoid the cruft.

    My experience may give me a bad POV.
