Hi,
I'd like to beg for the creation of the project `editor-hints':
It'll cover portable code necessary for a better Lisp editing experience in the 21th century. It'll provide hints (i.e. by storing information in the Lisp image) for better readtable support, special indentation support &c. See http://paste.lisp.org/display/52232 for some of the current ideas.
The code for named readtables is already there.
Name : Tobias Christian Rittweiler E-Mail : tcr@freebits.de c-l.net account : trittweiler (does already exist) PGP key : See post scriptum.
Project name : editor-hints License : MIT Members : trittweiler, rgoldman
Thanks for consideration, and efforts!

Hi Tobias,
Someone else has to do the hard work (I think it's Drew) but you might want to take a look at / include hyperdoc (http://common-lisp.net/project/hyperdoc/ ) as part of your project.

Yes, I've been pointed to that one before, and I'll probably leverage from it. Thanks for the hint, though! There are also lots of docstring prettifying and documentation creation libraries (just as there are unit testing frameworks.) When time comes, I'll look at them and decide what they're good for.
`Editor-hints' is supposed to be the meta-package of all those by being an interface between Lisp image and Lisp environment.
