memo for pve - any link to this Smalltalk-in-Lisp: I can't be expected to work when CLiki doesn't respond to me, can I?

not the numbers, but everything else.. it's a strange ouroboros of classes and metaclasses, so the experience has been "interesting", to say the least

oh, you mean the repository started 5 days ago.. yeah, I just recently cleaned it up and put it on github, been working on it on and off for much longer

but what's currently working (and what I'm most proud of) is that the classes themselves respect the class hierarchy, so when a message is sent to the class itself, the methods defined on the superclasses can also be used.

Is it just me, or is it the case that the ANSI test suite does not build in a very nice way?

Also, I wish it were easier to run the tests on a bunch of "extrinsic" operators. By that I mean that I have a library that defines standard operators, but not in the CL package, so that it can be loaded into an existing implementation without clobbering the existing operators, and I would like to run the ANSI tests on the operators defined in that library.

I guess if each function had a single entry point associated with it, and that entry point were passed the function as an argument, that might work.
