Is there any effort to port mcclim to GCL?
Is there any effort to support mcclim on Windows?
I ask because I'd like to rewrite the graphics for Axiom (http://axiom.axiom-developer.org) in lisp in a portable way.

Brian Mastenbrook has some ideas on how this might be done:
McCLIM for CLISP http://www.iscblog.info/blog/display/20

Not that I am aware of. The only potential problem would be how well GCL implements the MOP. Apparently, McCLIM now runs on CLISP since someone recently implemented the lacking MOP features.

Again, not that I am aware of.

McCLIM would be the perfect route for that. But someone would have to be willing to put in the effort to write the back-end for Windows.

I believe GCL uses PCL, so it probably has enough of MOP to run McCLIM.

Ray,
Thanks. I'm looking into the issue of porting McClim to GCL. As a test case to ensure I understand the process I've been trying to build mcclim on clisp, so far without results. The effort continues...

That reminds me - has anybody checked if scigraph works on the clisp port yet? I'm gonna take a wack at clisp+McCLIM myself once I get time (probably late January at this rate :-( ).

according to the docs this should work cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@common-lisp.net:/project/mcclim/cvsroot login that does work now checking out cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@common-lisp.net:/project/mcclim/cvsroot co mcclim
does not work. Message is: cvs [checkout aborted]: could not chdir to mcclim: No such file or directory
Well browsing the repository yields: http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/?cvsroot=mcclim#dirlist
with mcclim as the only directory there. So why can't one get this stuff?

I don't know, but perhaps a cl.net administrator could answer.

Unfortunately, copy and pasting to a terminal here the attempted commands above (the first two lines beginning with cvs) works without any problems. I'm running slackware 10.0, which in these regards tends to be as vanilla as it gets.

I thought that this error was on my side this has confirmed that. And indeed the point is that there has existed a dangling link with the name mcclim. Now trying to check out mcclim accessed this dangling link and accessed a non existing target. Very funny and really dump from me.
Sorry Friedrich

I am not sure Scigraph+McCLIM works properly in any implementation right now. I asked Tim Moore to look into that recently, and he told me that it works well enough for a demo that he is supposed to be giving, but he gave me the distinct impression that it is not yet ready for general consumption.
Tim will be back from vacation next week, so you might get a more informed answer to your question then.

See my notes on Scigraph:
Scigraph: about, documentation patch http://www.paoloamoroso.it/log/040818.html
Fix for Scigraph build error http://www.paoloamoroso.it/log/040903.html
There is still some functionality that does not fully work, e.g. some command table issues that prevent access to some commands.

I'd like to hear about those. A while ago (right after the common-lisp.net move) I checked in a fix to command tables that resolved the SciGraph command issues that I knew about.

It looks like most of the command table issue I previously reported, i.e. the inability to use right-click menus, have been fixed. A quick check shows that I can now use presentation translator menus on graph elements.
By the way, what is the name of Scigraph's command table? GRAPH or :GRAPH?
