Now that I have a reader that can create CSTs from source code and that can be customized in various ways, I want to extract it to a separate repository, for ultimate inclusion in Quicklisp. Doing so comes with more work, of course. Separate tests. Separate documentation.

beach: i would be interested in helping (without money changing hands and without guarantees, though)

i'm interested in your reader and CST libraries. the extraction and testing tasks you mentioned seem like good ways to lean about the libraries

The code in SICL/Code/Reader/Simple is what I am thinking of extracting to a separate repository, called Eclector.

In the next few days, I'll add embryonic documentation, and I'll change the name of ASDF system and package to eclector.

It looks like the right answer to that is a new directory-pathname presentation type. Or so it seems, I’m new to CLIM.

That... at least sounds plausible? I have no idea if there might not be another solution.

I mean, there’s an easy first fix, to prevent users from doing something impossible, by using CL-FAD to make sure you’re dealing with a directory. But that doesn’t fix the presentation issue.
