I'm doing some work on WebAssembly. It's very frustrating to read non-lisper's WASM, they spread their right parens around like discarded toe nails

beach: sure, I'd like to use the best option in the context I am. But I ran (inspect ...) because it was a step in this clim tutorial https://kantz.com/clim-primer/application-frames.htm

What I usually do when I write a CLIM application, I include a command that starts Clouseau on the frame or on a pane.

Odin-: there's a significant benefit if one wants to implement GC themselves in that multivalue is getting actually implemented

minion: memo for emaczen: lisp itself is just an assembler. Just avoid the most sophisticated macros (or consider lisp as a macro assembler and use them!). See for example: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/comp.lang.lisp/T3UZwLoN0lw/4r9q_8cwKoQJ THIS IS YOUR STABLE ASSEMBLER!

is there any way to interrupt a running process in the slime-repl? I have that process that is not terminating and i would like to kill it (stop the running operation) it from Emacs...

It works well enough. If I really need to interrupt it I go to the Ubuntu window and kill -SIGSEGV its pid.

TIL that while (round) is required to round half to even, format's ~,VF directive is allowed to use half-to-whatever-it-wants.

"When rounding up and rounding down would produce printed values equidistant from the scaled value of arg, then the implementation is free to use either one."

sjl: https://termbin.com/z3fb some use banker's rounding, some don't. See which one you want to avoid rounding hacking…

is there a good reason /not/ to use stream-file-position from gray streams for gray streams which are not files?
22:29:13
jackdaniel
unfortunately there is no stream-position in gray protocol afaik (however clisp defines it in gray package)

The first thing that comes into mind is a stream that puts out random values.
