I was wondering if anyone knows how to get the name of
the host the user is logged in from inside Allegro Common
Lisp.  I have tried almost everything I know, but
Allegro leaves the host name out of *default-path-default*,
which is the reason, I cannot use pathname-host.  Any ideas
will be appreciated.

  Thanks,

  Jaime Cisneros

Try (short-site-name) or (long-site-name).

(si:getenv "HOST") works fine for me, I think that's a standard csh variable.
Otherwise, run-shell-command with the right args to /bin/hostname.
