My name is cl-launch but my friends call me cl

I am pleased to tell you about the new release 1.74 of CL-Launch, that small infrastructure I wrote to make your Common Lisp software easy to access from a Unix command line.

Since I initially announced cl-launch on this blog, it has grown a variety of features making it more usable, such as the easy execution of cl-launch from a script, a short notation for common cases (read-eval-print of single form), the ability to dump Lisp images for fast startup, support for more implementations (sbcl, clisp, cmucl, openmcl, gcl, allegro), a small library of Lisp functions, extensive documentation, debian packages, and more.

To make it more usable, I even officially adopted the shorter alias cl to invoke cl-launch. Enjoy!

I have happily used cl-launch in the past and wanted to download a copy for my Macbook i am setting up. However i am having difficulty finding a link that works. All the links i have found (such as http://fare.tunes.org/files/cl-launch/ from CLIKI) are returning server errors.

Merci en avance.

(Your info says you are in Cambridge MA. So am i, small world!)

We had security issues on our website and had to disable some features, which led to some parts of the site not working anymore. This particular issue is now fixed. Thanks a lot for your bug report, and my apologies for the inconvenience.

Note that cl-launch is now in debian, too. Send me mail if you want to meet.

Thank you very much. I had been using Debian and that is how i was introduced to this useful package.

I'll have to take you up on the offer to meet sometime. Is there any sort of lispy meetup type of thing around here?

There hasn't been a Lisp meetup lately. We probably should organize something at ITA. Contact me.
