Indeed, there was one ) extra vi editor spotted it right-away.. However, I am having a problem now with another file in asdf-install, and this time it's not that clear -- apparently, it's an Error: end of file while reading..?? Any idea?

Re: [toronto-lisp] toronto-lisp Digest, Vol 35, Issue 5

Not sure if it works the same on Lispworks, but in SBCL + Emacs/SLIME, you can target your library archive directly with ASDF instead of relying on the automated download. In other words (require 'asdf) (require 'asdf-install) (asdf-install:install "/path/to/your/cl-ppcre.tar.gz") Obviously, you'll want to use the windows file path in place of that one. As long as the tarball has that asd file in it, it should work. Now, for this library, you should just be able to do (asdf-install:install 'cl-ppcre) instead of getting your own download (this is probably what is meant by "the usual way"). cl-ppcre is well maintained, so ASDF should be able to handle the download for you unless the CLiki is down for whatever reason. -Leo PS. I remember the first few weeks of learning Lisp. It was goddamn infuriating. If it's any consolation at all, the feeling passes once you get your bearings.

[toronto-lisp] ok, I think I figured it out
by Matijaca, Aleksandar 18 Nov '10

I am at a bank behind a firewall, and, my previous crash seemed to indicate that something went wrong in ports.lisp (networking??). So I did a quick look see for the word proxy in asdf-install, and lo-and-behold, I found in defpackage.lisp an area where I could possibly configure proxy info... Now, my proxy information is as follows: Hostname is something.secret.rbc.com Port is 8080 Username someusername Password supersecret The proxy is an http proxy - how would you configure the parameters below, so that it will take these parameters above to configure the defpackage.lisp below. It's an http proxy, and I don't notice anywhere the ability to set up the port value.. Any ideas? (cl:in-package :cl-user) (defpackage #:asdf-install (:use #:common-lisp) (:export ;; Customizable variables. #:*shell-path* ; TODO: Undocumented #:*proxy* #:*cclan-mirror* #:asdf-install-dirs ; TODO: Undocumented #:private-asdf-install-dirs ; TODO: Undocumented #:*tar-extractor* ; TODO: Undocumented #:*program-directories* ; TODO: Undocumented #:*verify-gpg-signatures* #:*locations* #:*safe-url-prefixes* #:*preferred-location* #:*temporary-directory* ; TODO: Undocumented #:*system-file-installer* ;; External entry points. #:add-locations ; TODO: Undocumented #:add-registry-location ; TODO: Undocumented #:uninstall #:install #:asdf-install-version ; TODO: Undocumented #+(and asdf (or :win32 :mswindows)) #:sysdef-source-dir-search ;; proxy authentication #:*proxy-user* #:*proxy-passwd* ;; conditions #:download-error #:signature-error ; TODO: Undocumented #:gpg-error ; TODO: Undocumented #:gpg-shell-error ; TODO: Undocumented #:key-not-found #:key-not-trusted #:author-not-trusted #:installation-abort ; TODO: Undocumented ;; restarts #:install-anyways ; TODO: Undocumented )) (defpackage #:asdf-install-customize (:use #:common-lisp #:asdf-install) (:documentation "Used internally for loading user customization file.")) ;;; Local variables: ;;; indent-tabs-mode:nil ;;; End: _______________________________________________________________________ This email is intended only for the use of the individual(s) to whom it is addressed and may be privileged and confidential.

[toronto-lisp] asdf / lispworks 6.0.1 personal edition question
by Matijaca, Aleksandar 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

Ok, so I downloaded the latest 6.0.1 Lispworks for windows, and I do not see anywhere in the gui even a mention of ASDF - there is no "button"... On their web site, they state that they have ASDF integration in IDE - I don't see it. The link in their web pages takes me here: To use ASDF in the LispWorks IDE: 1. Load ASDF and some ASDF system definitions in the usual ASDF way. 2. Load the file (example-file "misc/asdf-integration.lisp") . >From the above: Load ASDF and some ASDF system definitions in the usual ASDF way. (WTF, I don't know what the "usual way" is...?) What is the usual way???? Ok, so I ran the second line called (example-file ...... And I assume that does something also, although they don't say what.... Why is it called example-file??? What is example-file? What kind of a function is that? Ok, so, I also downloaded cl-ppcre-2.0.3 (I can't use quicklisp network type installations because I am at a bank, and they have serious firewalls preventing stuff just like this). So, I downloaded this package, and I unzipped it, and I did notice that there is amongst other files a cl-ppcre.asd file (probably important). So, this is what I have: LispWorks 6.0.1 which is supposed to be already ASDF ready on Windows Unzipped cl-ppcre-2.0.3 So, assuming that the whole thing is ASDF ready, how do I load up and "install" cl-ppcre-2.0.3 Why is this so friggin' frustrating - I just wanna code in Lisp, not fight Lispworks and ASDF...

[toronto-lisp] dealing with strings -> symbols
by Matijaca, Aleksandar 06 Nov '10

06 Nov '10

Hi there, I have come across something that I need just a little bit of help with. I managed to write some lisp code to read a flat file, line by line. I also managed to put those lines of code into something like this: ( ( "A,MSFT.N,D,12.4,12:43:00") ( "f,IBM.N,f,108.4,11:09:023") ) All comma delineated text files. Now, I would like to convert this into something that I can deal with from a lisp perspective - I would like to get so that these values are symbols - so this is what I really want: ( ( A MSFT.N D 12.4 12:43:00 ) ( f IBM.N f 108.4 11:09:023 ) ) I noticed that there is a function called INTERN which seems to convert a regular string to a symbol, but, I don't really have a regular string, I have a "mess" as shown above. Any idea on how I can go from a messed up single long string, to a bunch of symbols, so I can finally start dealing with the symbols in the line from a file a "lisp way"?

[toronto-lisp] November meeting
by Vish Singh 03 Nov '10

03 Nov '10

Today we discussed creating a list of good Lisp books recommended by the members of our group. I will put together such a list if you all could write down your suggestions and reply to this thread. (The books listed below can be considered included.) It would go up on lisptoronto.org for the time being. For the future: It would be nice to have an open "Toronto Lisp Wiki" that anyone can edit. attendees: Paul Tarvydas Brian Connoy Vishvajit Singh Aleksandar Matijaca Leo Zovic Doug Hoyte Bryce Moore a subset of the topics discussed: - old Lisp book from 1984, 2 pages on macros (what was this book?) - Land of Lisp book, lots of drawings - the Little, Seasoned, and Reasoned Schemer books - SICP, SICM, PAIP - International Lisp Conference (and SPLASH, formerly OOPSLA) in Reno, Nevada, attended by Paul * evolving fixes to software bugs * picbreeder.org * QuickLisp * design of the Common Lisp Standard * molecular biology needs good hackers + easier to teach a coder biology than to teach a biologist to code + the genome is in fact much like a computer program + surprisingly much of the genome is unused, filled with junk and old retroviruses - Rich Hickey's talks and presentations * my personal favorite: http://www.infoq.com/presentations/Are-We-There-Yet-Rich-Hickey - Lisp/Scheme on the iPad and iPhone - POSIX support in the Windows NT kernel - Homer: a tool for blind people to find their way in buildings

[toronto-lisp] Meeting tomorrow - 6PM - Linuxcaffe
by Vish Singh 02 Nov '10

02 Nov '10

The November meeting of the Toronto Lisp Users Group: be there, or be square [brackets]! Tuesday November 2 2010 - 6PM - Linuxcaffe (for directions see http://www.lisptoronto.org/) Land of Lisp is an exciting new way to learn Lisp.. I wonder if anyone has the e-book or physical versions to show off. Come on out - and bring your Lisp books, Lisp code, Lisp war stories, Lisp Halloween costumes, etc.! See you tomorrow, Vish

[toronto-lisp] Land of Lisp
by Brian Connoy 28 Oct '10

28 Oct '10

Conrad Barski's "Land of Lisp" is available now in eBook form (hardcopy soon to follow)! http://landoflisp.com/ I see in the acknowledgements the name "Christopher Brown". Perchance, is that our own Toronto-Lisp "Christopher Browne" !? BC

[toronto-lisp] Lambda question
by Aleksandar Matijaca 19 Oct '10

19 Oct '10

Hi there, a quick question - I have a reasonably firm understanding of how lambda functions work, however, I cannot immediately see why you would want to use one, when you can write a perfectly good NAMED function instead... So under which circumstances would you absolutely want to use a lambda function and why, and under which circumstances would you absolutely NOT want to use a lambda function.. Thanks, Alex.
