Hi,

im new to LISP. My next job is to program some modules for a CAD-System
which is based on a LISP-Interpreter (Kyoto Common Lisp). The CAD System
runs on Windows and some flavours of UNIX.

I'm looking for way of Interprocess Communication. Is there a socket API
for this Interpreter available? Are there other ways to do that?


Thanks
Peter

Greetings!  GCL is (one of) the successor(s) to KCL.  Sockets are
fully supported (see sockets.c).  I'm interested in knowing what CAD
system you are working on, and whether it will work with current GCL. 

Take care,

Your email address is not functioning.  If you went to an Apple
conference in Salamanca, please email me.

Otherwise have a good day. ;)  

Sorry for the offtopic post.

Kyoto Common Lisp has a compiler as well (to C)

 From KCL you have access to C directly.  I do not remember whether you 
have a library ready in the specific implementation.  You may want to 
look at ECL (which is a derivative of KCL). http://ecls.sf.net

I'm a little curios. Are there a lot of Lisp socket users out there?
In particular socket users with low latency and high performance
requirements. The reason why I ask is because I've been playing with
the thought of making a UFFI or similar binding to the SCI socket
interface (http://www.dolphinics.no/news/2004/2_25.html).
