Today I decided to do some shell programming with CLISP.
This is on FreeBSD 4.10. I installed the port:
GNU CLISP 2.30 (released 2002-09-15) (built 3311025230) (memory 3311025634)
Features:
(CLOS LOOP COMPILER CLISP ANSI-CL COMMON-LISP LISP=CL INTERPRETER SOCKETS GENERIC-STREAMS
LOGICAL-PATHNAMES SCREEN FFI UNICODE BASE-CHAR=CHARACTER SYSCALLS UNIX)
I wanted to use regular expressions, but none of the features
mentioned in the online documentation (at http://clisp.cons.org)
appear to be installed in my clisp image.
The /usr/ports/lang/clisp/Makefile has this in it:
MAKEMAKE_ARGS=--prefix=${PREFIX} --with-readline --with-gettext \
--with-dynamic-ffi --with-module=regexp --with-export-syscalls
which made me think maybe the :REGEX module would have been installed.
I also looked over the documentation there on External Modules, but
didn't entirely follow what I would be doing to get one of these modules.
I see some intriguing files in /usr/local/lib/clisp/full, such as: regex.o,
regexi.o, regexp.o, along with 21 makevars, modules.h, and modules.o.
I tried calling SYS::DYNLOAD-MODULES, but it's not defined.
I wonder if I should install a newer version of clisp, but I don't
know the mysteries of ports, so I don't even know how to tell if
there is a new version available for my platform. This is not my
computer and I do not want to install anything that isn't part of
standard FreeBSD. They're going to be excited enough as it is.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Why doesn't my clisp have regexp in it?
How can I get it in there?
Do I need a newer version of clisp? How?
Is there a clisp users mailing list?
Thanks!

Did you invoke it with clisp -K full?
(an alias might be appropriate)
As to install a newer version, AFAIK 2.30 is a little old (but functional),
2.33-2 should be better, if available...

Try this:
$ clisp -K full

There is a clisp user's email list:
clisp-list <at> lists.sourceforge.net.
I suggest reading it via gmane.
There have been many, many improvements to clisp made since 2.30. I
would suggest a newer version.
Other users have already mentioned -K full, which is required for
regexps.

Where are the modules with which I built CLISP?
In the full linking set. Run CLISP like this: clisp -K full.
The reasons for base being the default are explained here.

Download source, compile it with GCC.

You should get the CVS version because there was a mismatch of type
declaration that made regex fail on *BSD up to clisp-2.33.2. (or you
can compile it yourself configuring it to use the embedded regexp.c,
or you could correct the type in the regexp module).

use the cvs utility and check out from sourceforge (
http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=1355).

I'm using CLISP 2.33.2 (2004-06-02) on FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE. Installation
is straight forward on BSD, just follow the readme. I believe you can
install everything in your /home if you don't want to interfere with the
rest of the system.
