Xach: what should I do to have the reference git repository for closure-html to be moved to the new home?

I've got 2 instances of an ASDF system, 1 from quicklisp and 1 that's my own fork. How do you guys deal with asdf loading the right system depending on if you want to develop your fork or just want to use the quicklisp 'master'?

_death:Ouch. Yeah, I looked through the manual and code. There doesn't seem to be a more fine-grained way of dealing with system loading than loading whole directories and their subdirectories

jackdaniel:Nice. I 'solved' the problem by putting my fork in ~/common-lisp which I guess has precedence over the quicklisp folders.

Hi, I'd like to create a function that does something from N to M. If M is not supplied, then it works indefinitely. I wanted to do so with loop, like (lambda (&optional (bottom 1) (upper nil)) (loop for i from bottom below upper do ...)

but if I choose to use below or upto, I have to supply the number. What should I do?
13:34:39

yeah, right now I am using (loop for i from bottom until (when upper (> i upper)) do ...)

Hi, am I right to think that if I provide :if-does-not-exist nil as keyword argument and its value to with-open-file, if the file does not exist, none of the code inside the with-open-file should execute

malice`: trivia: SBCL has a bug on Windows where :IF-DOES-NOT-EXIST NIL ends up signaling errors most of the time. It was fixed in 1.3.16 IIRC.
