defsystem history
by Faré 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Is there any old timer alive who can tell me about the early history of defsystem? I *suppose* it was inspired by Unix Make — but was it? When did defsystem appear? It's already quite elaborate in the 1981 edition of the chine nual. But when was it first written? What did lispers use before? Ad hoc load scripts? What do older Lisp Machine tapes contain? Where can I find those tapes? Does any old MIT tech report tell us anything about defsystem? Which versions of defsystem did or did not have problems with propagating timestamps? —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste. — Henry Ford

Best practices analogous to "debug" and "release" builds?
by John Morrison 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

Hi; I want to prune all the developer-centric stuff (e.g., clouseau:inspector, which in turn, brings in McCLIM, maybe some formatted I/O) from my CL software when I package it as a dumped SBCL image (vs delivering source). Would also like to change the optimize directives (debug, speed, etc.). What are the best practices? My Googling didn't turn up much. Or am I thinking about this in entirely the wrong way? Thanks in advance, -jm
