6:08:12beachA few weeks ago, I mentioned a possible project for someone who might be interested, but there were no takes, so I mention it again. I would like to see a library that handles input methods, independently of any client. As jackdaniel mentioned, there is some support for input methods in CLIM-TOS, so that should be looked into.
6:08:41beachIf someone is interested, we could discuss what an appropriate protocol would look like.
6:18:38fourierbeach: are you going to ELS next week?
11:45:23jackdanielit certainly does under some circumstances, when xyz=nil
11:45:40ecravenjackdaniel: well, it would be good enough to get the literal matches
11:45:50phoeecraven: are you able to recompile #'LAYOUT?
11:46:18phoeif yes, (defun layout (a b c d e) (when (null d) (break)) ...)
11:47:08ecravenphoe: that won't work, this is a web app, I cannot make a call to all places where it appears
11:47:42ecravenit occurs some 100 times in my code, and I want to change those places where the last parameter is nil. not urgent, just thought there might be some good way.. I'll just look at all the places where it is called, and go through them by hand
11:48:36Bikegrep 'layout.*nil)' is probably what i'd go with if it's the last parameter
12:29:19phoeat the moment there are no native video decoders or players in Common Lisp, so your only option is interfacing with any kind of foreign library designed for this.
