[admin] [hosting request] cl-magick
by djwatson＠u.washington.edu 04 May '05

04 May '05

Request for hosting: cl-magick is a set of ImageMagick bindings. Bindings created by preprocessing C-header files, then running through a c-header to uffi transformer, and then post-processed. Most basic functionality works at this point (load image, pixel wands, etc...). Known not to work are all functions requiring structs that are not magick_wand (high level C interface), but part of image magick core C (low level interface). This was deemed acceptable, as most people just want access to higher level interfaces anyhow. With time and more users I would hope these extra functions would eventually get corresponding structs (as much as is needed from lower level library), and more testing. Is an asdf package. License will most likely be LLGPL or something in that vein. Still looking into this... -Dave Watson djwatson(a)u.washington.edu

[admin] A new project called CL-Carbon
by David Steuber 28 Apr '05

28 Apr '05

Hi, I would like to create a new project called CL-Carbon to be hosted on your server. CL-Carbon is intended to be a CLOS application framework that wraps the Carbon APIs for OS X and usable with OpenMCL. Porting to other Lisps may be done as resources allow. SBCL for example would be a nice target when it supports threads and callbacks on OS X. CL-Carbon overcomes a current technical limitation on distribution of Cocoa based applications using OpenMCL. Unlike a Cocoa app, a Carbon app does not need to be recompiled when the OS is upgraded by a patch release via Software Update. A current application I have available[1] has been reported to run under Tiger without recompile. It was developed under Panther and not recompiled since 10.3.8. I am now running 10.3.9. Another benefit seems to be better application performance. Current Cocoa applications under OpenMCL appear to be slow. CL-Carbon should provide the interested user with a way to build OS X applications in Lisp that are lightweight and fast. By dealing with certain boiler plate issues, development should be reasonably quick. This is an alternative to Cocoa rather than a replacement. I am considering the LLGPL license for this project. [1] To see a demonstration of CL-Carbon in action, along with the current state of the Lisp code, visit: http://www.david-steuber.com/Lisp/OSX/Carbon/ In addition to the article describing Carbon programming in Lisp, there is a link to an OS X dmg file that contains both the running application and source code. Thank you for your consideration, David Steuber.

[admin] ViewARCH
by Marco Baringer 14 Apr '05

the ViewARCH install on cl.net has broken (i think its acutally been broken for a while). It'd be nice if instead of fixing the current ViewARCH we could upgrade to a recent dev version of archzoom (same idea but has a nicer feature set and is easier to install). i'd be happy to do it myself or walk someone through it (i've already installed and setup archzoom a few time). -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget the perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in. -Leonard Cohen

Hi, I've couple of small games written in Common Lisp using CMU CL which I would like to put into public for further development. Maybe you could help me?-) cl-hasami-shogi Written by Sami Makinen MIT license Text based Japanese board game called Hasami Shogi. It is a rather simple game and current AI is pretty lousy so even a beginner can beat it! cl-pacman Written by Sami Makinen MIT license Pac-Man® is a classic arcade game from Namco of Japan. Pac-Man is a Trademark of Namco Ltd. cl-pacman is a Common Lisp version of the game and its intention is to be available only for the educational purposes. The implementation does not have one fixed level but the level is created by random in which it differs from the original idea. The emphasis on cl-pacman is in implementation of Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm. This uses CLX for graphics and it has sound engine but no sounds! Current status includes implementation of basic features of the game and AI of the four ghosts has been implemented. But still quite much needs to be done to make this a playable game. cl-raiders Written by Sami Makinen MIT license Raiders is a game found originally from Andre LaMothe's book Tricks of the 3D Game Programming Gurus-Advanced 3D Graphics and Rasterization in chapter 1. The original version is written in C for Windows DirectX. The version presented here is written in Common Lisp and it uses SDL for graphics operations. The implementation has a wierd approach to use labels construct and better idea would have been to declaim functions to be inline. The current version is about 1.2 times slower than corresponding C version which also uses SDL and runs on same machine with same environment. With kindly regards, Sami Makinen
