Hi,

I have a question. How can I set the 
priority of my program to highest
through LISP code? I am using CL
and the OS is UNIX. 

You can set priority in Win98 
for example in Visual Basic
using the API call SetThreadPriority
from kernel32.dll

So, my question how can I tell the
LISP interpretor to allocate more
more memory and CPU time to my
program?

Thank you in advance.

Tigran

ps PLEASE reply to my email address also.

It is implementation-dependent (as would be the case with different
Basic environments if there were several of them, but even that single
dominant one is one too many), and only applicable when there is support
for multiprocessing.  Refer to the documentation that came with your
Lisp.
