The first public draft release of the EncyCMUCLopedia (Aug 4, 1999 - draft)
is available for download. The EncyCMUCLopedia is a CMU CL documentation
project I am working on.
The README file, included below, explains what the EncyCMUCLopedia is and
provides instructions for getting and installing it. Please let me know
about any problems you may have with the distribution.

EncyCMUCLopedia
August 4, 1999 - draft
The EncyCMUCLopedia is an extensive collection of documents concerning CMU
Common Lisp (CMU CL) http://www.cons.org/cmucl/. CMU CL is a free,
high-quality ANSI Common Lisp system for Unix workstations originally
developed at the School of Computer Science of Carnegie Mellon University.
The EncyCMUCLopedia packages in a single collection most of the existing
documentation on CMU CL. It also comes with a sort of annotated
bibliography with comments and links to the actual documents.
The distribution of the EncyCMUCLopedia is available at:
http://cvs2.cons.org:8000/cmucl/doc/EncyCMUCLopedia/
and consists of a compressed archive whose name has the following
structure:
encycmuclopedia-yyyymmdd[d].tar.gz
encycmuclopedia-yyyymmdd[d].tar.bz2
where the date `yyyymmdd' provides version information and the optional `d'
character flags draft releases. The version with the `bz2' extension was
processed with the more space efficient bzip2 file compressor.
To install the EncyCMUCLopedia you need about 10MB of disk space. Just
extract the compressed archive in a suitable directory such as
/usr/local/lib/cmucl. Then open file index.html in doc, the top-level
directory of the distribution, with any Web browser. Check that HTML
document for copyright and licensing information.
