What the difference between :to and :upto in the loop macro? As far as I can see they do the same thing

It's just about loading it -- quicklisp fails at 'Component "verbose" not found', but that's immediately after downloading the .tgz

for the record, I exited the debugger and did those two steps again -- (ql:quickload :radiance), chatlog -- and it went through without issue. Maybe you need to quickload radiance two times first.

there's cases where ASDF gets into a confused state and doesn't load things properly.

I don't understand what you mean, why should I restart? It worked the second time is what I'm saying.

the only thing I see is this discussion I participated in a long time ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/a8d61y/help_with_porting_elisp_to_cl/

also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21665987 is a relevant discussion from not too long ago regarding compiling elisp

jmercouris
thats an interesting discussion indeed, though a lot of the comments are parroty and 'talk to talk' type things as is common on YC

or rather the two edged sword, convenient, but very deadly, and you cut yourself a lot accidentally

how would an elisp interpreter be helpful?.. elisp is a language for emacs, which has abstractions like buffers, windows, markers, fonts, and a ton of other things

froggey: a very straightforward solution, but a very lengthy and long one :-D, I do admire your persistence and dedication!

jmercouris: my solution is to develop a C compiler targetting CL so that we may compile GNU emacs into a CL lisp image.

At the moment my option is to use third party image storage/hosting just for image validation

New Ubuntu system, I notice ~/quicklisp/setup.lisp is in the hidden directory ~/.quicklisp/setup.lisp Should I uninstall and reinstall using Quicklisp method?
19:35:25

I have multiple QuickLisp installations in various very non-default locations, and I never have any problems with that
19:38:34
adam0001
OK. Thank you. It seems that the Lisp of others often expects it in the non-hidden directory.
19:39:17
adam0001
So, no real convention I guess. Will take another look at the Quicklisp install notes.
19:39:46
MichaelRaskin
Well, I load mine manually. (Of course that could go into .sbclrc if you have exactly one installation)

adam0001: implementations don't really expect it to be anywhere. they just need to load setup.lisp
19:42:33
adam0001
a quick fix, might be to link or copy the hidden directory and file, alias it to a non-hidden ~/quicklisp/setup.lisp

on my system .sbclrc is set for quicklisp/setup.lisp. if i threw a period in there it would do the hidden location instead.
19:51:12
adam0001
@Bike OK. Yes, my .sbclrc has it pointing to the hidden. So, its simply programmed hard-wired in the software I'm trying to run. I can change that, or copy setup.lisp to where it expects to find it.
