About the second one: Could someone please explain what the intent of the package EXTERNAL-FORMAT in McCLIM is?
It looks like it tries to handle functions for translating from some internal format of McCLIM (hopefully Unicode) to X11 font encoding.
OK. Under which conditions should the code which uses and defines external-format::ksc5601-code-to-font-index etc. be defined? - If the Lisp implementation supports Unicode? #+unicode - If CLIM should support Unicode? #+clim-unicode
And what shall happen on implementations that don't have an EXTERNAL-FORMAT package? Why is there no (DEFPACKAGE "EXTERNAL-FORMAT" ...) in McCLIM?
