I sent Bram Molenaar a Google peer award for releasig vim 7 while we were both working there

jcowan: unfortunately, I haven't completed my regexp library. You will have to hook it to cl-ppcre.

LGTM. I want to use it as a library: would you consider dual licensing under the LGPL?
17:21:13
pjb
No, I will stay with AGPL3 for the foreseable future. You might get lucky, and find an old version licensed under LGPL, but I don't distribute it anymore.

I am confused why this (format t "~14,6,2,,,,'eE" -9.999999747378752d-5) => -10.000000e-05 instead of -1.000000e-04?

pjb tested this on a variety of lisps, and apparently only sbcl and abcl give the wrong answer.

can anyone point to resources online that i can read about HOW roswell and asdf work / interact with each other or the host environment?

Are you familiar with nodejs/npm at all? asdf (another system definition facility) is a way to define packages, similar to package.json in node land. Quicklisp which you didn't mention is like npm - the tool to pull in remote dependencies for asdf to load. Roswell is closest to nvm I think (node version manager) - it wraps up all the lisp stuff into a ~/.roswell directory

Maybe offtopic, but what's the best practice if I want to store upwards of 10,000 binary files (addressed by hash of contents)? Filesystems usually don't perform as well as usual when you use directories with that many tiles.

holycow
well, i have run email servers with more files than that but they have all subdivided the attachments into subdirs

i am just waisting your time, my apologies. i don't have any useful information for you. i just misread your original question and was curious.

You're not wasting my time; I don't even have useless information to work with.

no-defun-allowed: You can organize the files into sub-directories named after one or more digits in the hash. Should be pretty uniform.

i would say it does kind of depend on how big your files are and what kind of post processing you need to do. large files will force you into the obvious answer, how many small files will give you some room to play with
