[ann] [cl-typesetting-announce] cl-pdf, cl-tpesetting and mod_lisp repositories and tarballs
by Marc Battyani 01 Nov '05

01 Nov '05

In my previous announce of the merging of the cl-pdf and cl-typesetting repositories, the URL I gave were wrong. Here are the correct ones: The full repository is here: http://www.fractalconcept.com:8000/public/open-source/ The cl-pdf part: http://www.fractalconcept.com:8000/public/open-source/cl-pdf/ The cl-typesetting part: http://www.fractalconcept.com:8000/public/open-source/cl-typesetting/ The mod_lisp part: http://www.fractalconcept.com:8000/public/open-source/mod_lisp/ It's a subversion 1.0 repository. There are also tarballs for cl-pdf and cl-typesetting: http://www.fractalconcept.com/download/cl-pdf-current.tgz http://www.fractalconcept.com/download/cl-typesetting-current.tgz BTW the (somewhat outdated) home pages for these projects are here: http://www.fractalconcept.com/asp/html/cl-pdf.html http://www.fractalconcept.com/asp/html/cl-typesetting.html http://www.fractalconcept.com/asp/html/mod_lisp.html Marc _______________________________________________ cl-typesetting-announce site list cl-typesetting-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/cl-typesetting-announce

[ann] [movitz-announce] Bignums have landed..
by Frode Vatvedt Fjeld 19 Jul '04

19 Jul '04

..but we still need to tax to the terminal building. That is, this is to announce that I now consider Movitz to support bignums reasonably well. However, there's bound to be some bignums bugs still, and certainly there are arithmetic operators that don't yet support bignums (not to mention operators that are missing completely). -- Frode Vatvedt Fjeld _______________________________________________ movitz-announce site list movitz-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/movitz-announce

[ann] [cl-pdf-announce] [ANNOUNCE] cl-typegraph
by Marc Battyani 15 Jul '04

15 Jul '04

cl-typegraph is a cl-typesetting extension to typeset graphs. It uses Graphviz for the graph layout and then draws it with cl-pdf and cl-typesetting. The nodes can contain strings or a full cl-typesetting layout. You can look at some examples here (page 3): http://www.fractalconcept.com/ex.pdf So far it only works with Lispworks but the only non portable function is #'sys:call-system. (I'm waiting for patches for other implementations. ;-) It's on the repository: http://www.fractalconcept.com:8000/public/open-source/ And the latest tarballs: http://www.fractalconcept.com/download/cl-pdf-current.tgz http://www.fractalconcept.com/download/cl-typesetting-current.tgz You will also need Graphviz: http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/graphviz/ Have fun and please report bugs, patches, etc. Marc _______________________________________________ cl-pdf-announce site list cl-pdf-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/cl-pdf-announce

[ann] [movitz-announce] Movitz has new 'basic-vectors' data-structure, and improved GC.
by Frode Vatvedt Fjeld 07 Jul '04

07 Jul '04

I've just checked in the last pieces of the migration to a new data-structure for vectors, called "basic-vectors". The most important new feature is that the vector's length is now a fixnum, so that vectors are now restricted to most-positive-fixnum (#x1fffffff) rather than the old limit of #xffff. One practical consequence of this, is that the example GC implementation in los0-gc.lisp is now capable of supporting new-spaces up to size 2 GB. However, I believe the practically useful range is going to be below a few tens of MB. I've set the default size to 2 MB. There have also been numerous bug-fixes. A new los0.img is being uploaded to the clnet web-site. -- Frode Vatvedt Fjeld _______________________________________________ movitz-announce site list movitz-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/movitz-announce

[ann] [cells-announce] Cells II, Celtic, and "Cello now under Cells"
by Kenny Tilton 07 Jul '04

07 Jul '04

text below was copied from the notes at the top of the cell-cultures CVS project: http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/cell-cultures/?cvsroot=cells Other cvs projects alongside cell-cultures have short life-expectancies. Likewise, as soon as I figure out how to shut down the common-lisp Cello mailing lists, I will do so, so anyone wanting to track Cello should slide over to the Cells list. "Kenny Tilton July 6, 20004 This CVS release inaugurates the collection of all my Cells-related code under one CVS project (./cells/cell-cultures), in turn under one common-lisp.net project, Cells. From now on the Cello project under common-lisp.net is quiesced, tho the web page is still informative and fun screen shots can be found in the FTP area. This release also introduces two significant new code releases. First, a substantial reworking of Cell internals known informally as Cells II. Second, Celtic, a derived work of Peter Herth's LTk project marrying Common Lisp and TCl/Tk. Celtic adds Cells to the mix (and deviates wildly from LTk so cannot be combined with that. A third subproject (a directory, in fact), Clyde (derived from "CL IDE") currently just contains a GUI wrapper for the CL apropos-list function, but could soon see a port of ClouCell, currently a Cello-based graphical object inspector. Several other subprojects offer utilities required by most Cell projects. ASDF-ACLPROJ is Thomas Burdick's creation, which teaches ASDF about AllegroCL project files (their home-brewed defsystem). I use AllegroCL and cannot be trusted to keep parallel ASDF definition files current with the ACL project files. UTILS-KT is just what it looks like, very low-level stuff I use everywhere. FFI-EXTENDER makes it easier for me to whip up FFI bindings using UFFI (which, btw, you will also need). Pure binding subprojects are functional as far as they go, but are usually incomplete because I punt when they get hard, until I need the challenging bindings. These include: cl-opengl -- OpenGL. cl-openal -- bindings to OpenAL. Think "OpenGL for audio". cl-ftgl -- FTGL, FreeType for OpenGL cl-magick -- ImageMagick, for image files such as JPG, and vector or bitmapped graphics. That just leaves Cello, the OpenGL/Freeglut-based CL GUI. Where LTk and Celtic offer simpler, higher-level (but still powerful), and native GUIs, Cello is Lisp all the way down and offers terrific graphical power thx to direct OpenGL capabilities accelerated by hardware GPUs." -- Home? http://tilton-technology.com Cells?
