One hacky way is to check whether *asdf-session* is nil or not. For more precision, check the top of the visiting-action-list of the *asdf-session* and see if its component has the pathname of your lisp file (from (uiop:current-lisp-file-pathname)

Hi, this is a bit off the wall, but maybe there is a way to do it. A web search didn't seem to find anything about it.
Is there a way to know that ASDF is loading stuff?
I have this situation. A file might be loaded by ASDF or it might be loaded by hand. If it's being loaded by ASDF, then I'd like to do some stuff differently.
Why might this file be loaded by hand, why not always use ASDF? Well, it's not a Lisp file, it's a Maxima file being loaded by some maxima-asdf hackery. I can't count on maxima-asdf working for anybody else so I'm expecting that people will load it by hand instead of ASDF. But if it is being loaded by ASDF, then I'd like to know that.
Thanks a lot for any info,
