Hi, Gary.

Just a quick note to say that I think asdf-system-connections needs to be added as a dependency to cl-markdown. I carefully (by hand) installed the various dependencies to get cl-markdown to work, and when I tried (markdown "some string") I got the slime debugger saying "Class named NIL not found."

After some investigation, I then restarted lisp, loaded asdf-system-connections, reloaded the rest of the packages and tried (markdown "some string") again and had it work.

The stack is here:

        ((0 "(\"CCL::%READ-FORM\"\" \\\"#<STRING-INPUT-STREAM  #x300040FDF2AD>\\\" \\\"0\\\" \\\"'NIL\\\"\")"

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (1 "(\"READ\"\" \\\"#<STRING-INPUT-STREAM  #x300040FDF2AD>\\\" \\\"'T\\\" \\\"'NIL\\\" \\\"'NIL\\\"\")"

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (2 "(\"READ-FROM-STRING\"\" \\\"\\\\\"\\\\\"\\\" \\\"'T\\\" \\\"'NIL\\\" \\\"':START\\\" \\\"0\\\" \\\"':END\\\" \\\"'NIL\\\" \\\"':PRESERVE-WH.."

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (3 "(\"(:INTERNAL SWANK::FROM-STRING)\"\"\")"

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (4 "(\"SWANK::CALL-WITH-BUFFER-SYNTAX\"\" \\\"'NIL\\\" \\\"#<COMPILED-LEXICAL-CLOSURE (:INTERNAL SWANK::FROM-STRI.."

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (5 "(\"(:INTERNAL SWANK:INTERACTIVE-EVAL)\"\"\")"

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (6 "(\"SWANK::CALL-WITH-RETRY-RESTART\"\" \\\"\\\\\"Retry SLIME interactive evaluation request.\\\\\"\\\" \\\"#<COMPILE.."

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (7 "(\"SWANK::CALL-WITH-BUFFER-SYNTAX\"\" \\\"'NIL\\\" \\\"#<COMPILED-LEXICAL-CLOSURE (:INTERNAL SWANK:INTERACTIV.."

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (8 "(\"CCL::CALL-CHECK-REGS\"\" \\\"'SWANK:INTERACTIVE-EVAL\\\" \\\"\\\\\"\\\\\"\\\"\")"

            (:restartable :unknown))

         (9 "(\"SWANK::EVAL-FOR-EMACS\"\" \\\"'(SWANK:INTERACTIVE-EVAL \\\\\"\\\\\")\\\" \\\"'NIL\\\" \\\"2\\\"\")"

I am using Clozure Common Lisp (formerly openmcl) 1.2 on an Intel mac.

I also noticed that in cl-containers, I kept getting a warning that read-container-element was not found. I changed the four #+MCL conditions to #+(or :MCL :openmcl) and that worked very well. I did not see anywhere else in any of the packages that this needed to be done. (This did not fix the above issue, but I am not sure if it might not be important in other ways.)

Anyway, I hope this feedback is useful to you! Thank you for all your work on these utilities!
