[admin] Request for new project: Armed Bear Common Lisp (armedbear)
by Erik Huelsmann 23 Aug '08

23 Aug '08

I've inherited the J / ArmedBear project from Peter Graves. I'd like to move the ArmedBear part to common-lisp.net. [The J part is simply an editor, nothing lispy about that...] Could you set me up the armedbear project on c-l.net? Thanks in advance! Bye, Erik.

[admin] Request for new project: ANSI Conformance test suite (ansi-test)
by Erik Huelsmann 23 Aug '08

23 Aug '08

Hi! At the moment, the test suite by pfdietz is copied into a number of different tries of CL implementations (including ECL and CCL). I want to use the test suite for ABCL conformance testing too. Having a centralized copy - instead of several forked ones - seems to have more value; making it possible to create a shared effort. Would you please create this project on common-lisp.net for me? Thanks in advance, Erik. PS: I forgot to mention my clnet user with my last request too; it's ehuelsmann

[admin] Can http://common-lisp.net/projects/foo/ be forwarded to http://common-lisp.net/project/foo/?
by Nikodemus Siivola 23 Aug '08

23 Aug '08

Any http://common-lisp.net/projects/foo/ url shows a highly confused page. It would be nice if someone knew where it came from, and even nicer if http://common-lisp.net/projects/foo/ forwarded to http://common-lisp.net/project/foo/ since when typing urls directly I at least never remember which it it... (Ok, this is *very* low priority, obviously.) Cheers, -- Nikodemus

[admin] Git support?
by Liam Healy 13 Aug '08

I have lately been learning git and recently converted the repository for my project GSLL to git, including stitching together history that was broken in the process of transferring my svn repository from my private server to cl.net. I have put this on /project/gsll/git. It works fine for me (via ssh to cl.net) but I notice that the git: protocol for read-only access to the repository does not work, git clone git://common-lisp.net/project/gsll/git gsll Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/gsll/.git/ common-lisp.net[0: 80.68.86.115]: errno=Connection refused fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection refused) Would it be possible to enable git so that everyone can use it? Thanks, Liam

When I tried to add the project cltcl using the handle clTcl, I get this error: clnet:/custom/bin# ./add-project.sh cltcl pgriffioen clTcl Creating project cltcl, using handle clTcl in 5 seconds. addgroup: Please enter a username matching the regular expression configured via the name_regex configuration variable. Use the `--force-badname' option to relax this check or reconfigure name_regex. adduser: The group `clTcl' does not exist. chown: `pgriffioen.clTcl': invalid group mkdir: failed with 1 clnet:/custom/bin# Is this expected or is something wonky somewhere? -- Gary Warren King, metabang.com Cell: (413) 559 8738 Fax: (206) 338-4052 gwkkwg on Skype * garethsan on AIM

[admin] Project application
by Paul Griffioen 02 Aug '08

Hi, I've written a Common Lisp package I would like to host on Common-Lisp.net. The package is called clTcl and it provides an interface to Wish's GUI libraries via Tcl/Tk scripts embedded in Common Lisp. See the description below for more details. Would you consider hosting my package? I plan to release the code with an Mit license. My gpg fingerprint is: pub 1024D/0D08D694 2008-08-01 Key fingerprint = D560 66CA 8555 6B15 A02E 3695 B03B 3639 0D08 D694 uid Paul Richard Griffioen (PRG) <p.r.griffioen(a)chello.nl> sub 2048g/CD27B98E 2008-08-01 Below is some text I wrote for the readme file. I hope it explains what clTcl is. Kind regards, Paul Griffioen What does the clTcl package do? ------------------------------- Package clTcl provides an interface to Wish's GUI libraries via Tcl/Tk scripts embedded in Common Lisp. Functions are provided to launch the Wish interpreter and set up a stream for communication. Embedded Tcl/Tk scripts are read as lists of Common Lisp strings. Synchronous communication is provided to send these strings to Wish for interpretation. What is in the clTcl package? ----------------------------- A general reader function takes advantage of Tcl's uniform syntax and eases handling of Tcl scripts and values. Tcl scripts and values are strings but possibly with some list structure encoded. The reader follows Tcl's syntax rules, takes care of proper escaping and outputs one or more Common Lisp strings. This is used when reading Tcl scripts embedded in Common Lisp sources and when converting between Tcl lists and Lisp lists during communication with Wish. A thin compatibility layer sets up a stream to a Wish interpreter. Starting the Wish interpreter is the only implementation dependent part of the clTcl package. This layer takes care of that and provides functions to read and write to the stream. Parts of this layer are copied from the lisp2wish package. A primitive communication protocol on top of the compatibility layer synchronizes the control flow between Wish and Lisp. A blocking callback mechanism is added to initiate Lisp functions from the GUI. Errors on Wish's side are read and thrown at the Lisp side. What are clTcl's benefits? -------------------------- - Cross-platform GUI programming. Common Lisp and Wish both run on many systems. - Copy code snippets directly into your code. Many Tcl/Tk scripts are available and can be used without any modification. - Easy to use and adapt. The small code size (around 0.5 KLOC) makes it easy to embrace and extend the package.

[admin] darcs on cl.net
by Attila Lendvai 02 Aug '08

02 Aug '08

hi! did someone reinstall darcs recently? some time ago there was a workaround set up for pre 2.0 darcs. the binary was replaced with a script that sets umask before calling darcs. see the file darcs-script and darcs-bin below... they are the traces of the old setup. alendvai@clnet:~/dwim/public_html/darcs/eseho$ ll /usr/bin/darcs* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2487276 Feb 12 2005 /usr/bin/darcs -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2487276 Feb 12 2005 /usr/bin/darcs-bin -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 45 Jul 6 2006 /usr/bin/darcs-script /usr/bin/darcs was a symlink pointing to /usr/bin/darcs-script, but not anymore. any thoughts? -- attila
