[ann] [movitz-announce] The Bi-Annual Movitz Newsletter
by ffj＠common-lisp.net 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Here's a status report on Movitz: * First of all, activity has picked up a bit the last month or so. So this is a great time to jump on the bandwagon :-) * The Wiki is open for business: http://trac.common-lisp.net/movitz/wiki * The IRC channel is #movitz on irc.freenode.net. * I have more or less migrated my primary development environment to SBCL and SLIME, and so I made the effort to polish the Movitz tools for this setup. See http://trac.common-lisp.net/movitz/wiki/MovitzAndSlime * Some recent developments are: Much better &key argument parsing in (compiled) functions, improved floppy bootloader, VGA graphics (http://ccgi.bealbywm.plus.com/blog/2007/03/07/vga-in-movitz/) and improved keyboard driver by Shawn Betts. Reportedly, Mr. Betts has also successfully implemented preemptive thread switching. * My own development focus currently is to invent a reasonable mechanism for waiting/blocking. The current busy-looping nature of movitz kernels is clearly the biggest wart on the system. * While I have nothing concrete to show for it, I have been thinking that adding/porting Movitz to 64-bit x86 would be very interesting. (Not to mention there is a window of opportunity now while our main competitor Microsoft is struggling to port their legacy systems.) That's it for now, happy hacking to all, -- Frode Vatvedt Fjeld _______________________________________________ movitz-announce site list movitz-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/movitz-announce

[ann] [clkd-announce] clkd-0.1.1 is out.
by Kaz Kylheku 13 Mar '07

13 Mar '07

Got rid of lndir from configure by making ASDF smart enough to build in a separate directory. Renamed the package of the ASDF that comes with CLKD so it doesn't clash with existing ASDF setups. _______________________________________________ clkd-announce mailing list clkd-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clkd-announce

Yes, it makes sense to change that. I've done that in the new version.

OK, with the help of comp.lang.lisp[1] I've convinced myself that SPLIT-STRING relied on unspecified (or too vaguely specified) behaviour. I've now released a new version which hopefully only uses documented LOOP features. Please test. Thanks for the report, Edi.
