Hi, First up thanks to those who've helped me so far with my package issues. I've still got some issues, but I think the tips given have been useful. I'm still having some issues with my code and was wondering if someone would be interested in having a look at my code and letting me know what is wrong with my package setup. If at the same time you'd like to critique the code, that would be good too. I'm a pascal programmer learning lisp, so I've probably typed too much. If this is not the forum to ask favours like this (my issues are probably general lisp learning issues), could someone direct me to where I should post a request like this? My prog is a small reminder utility similar (though so far many less features) to David Skoll's remind utility. There are about 12 lisp files and I've arranged things into three packages for calendars, dates and reminders. I'm aiming to have it work under SBCL and eventually ECL. Thanks David |

As these are not SBCL-specific issues, the comp.lang.lisp newsgroup would probably be a better place. http://www.flownet.com/ron/packages.pdf is an in-depth guide to packages. PCL's chapter is rather good too (as is the whole book): http://www.gigamonkeys.com/book/programming-in-the-large-packages-and- symbols.html HTH, Tamas |

Yeah, packages can be hard to grasp at the beginning. > If at the same time you'd like to critique the code, that would be good too. > I'm a pascal programmer learning lisp, so I've probably typed too much. > > If this is not the forum to ask favours like this (my issues are probably > general lisp learning issues), could someone direct me to where I should > post a request like this? There are friendly and competent people at lispforum.com Or try #lisp on Freenode if you like IRC better. > My prog is a small reminder utility similar (though so far many less features) > to David Skoll's remind utility.

Seconded ... if you want drive-by reviews by people who Really Should Work On Their Thesis, just casually mention a github url or something. Rudi |

The reminders source is :- git://github.com/kreely/cl-reminders.git The unetwork source is :- git://github.com/kreely/unetwork.git Unetwork uses puri, which is available from http://files.b9.com/puri/puri-1.5.2.tar.gz The code basically works for simple reminders, but more complex ones with combinations of repeats, weekdays and warn befores do unexpected, incorrect things. Thanks for the other advice too, I'll look at PCL and try some of the websites mentioned. I might even gather up enough courage for comp.lang.lisp. David Rudi > > |
