hi,
I'm looking at the CLX manual and I've taken the source for the first
part (just-say-lisp) and am trying to get it to run with cmucl. So far I
have replaced OPEN-DISPLAY with open-clx-display which seemed to do the
trick but there's still a problem. CMUCL is complaining that it doesn't
know about any of the symbols in the xlibs package so I have to go
through all the source and xlib: all the functions. There must be a
package command that'll save me but I can't figure it out. Can you help?
Thanks
Charlieb.

Create your own package with defpackage, and then use the :use option:
(defpackage "MYPACKAGE"
(:use "XLIB" "COMMON-LISP"))
Or do the following:
(defpackage "MYPACKAGE")
(in-package "MYPACKAGE")
(use-package "XLIB")
...add whatever other USE-PACKAGE invocations you need here...

Well, you could either loop over all exported symbols in package XLIB
and import them or (less strenous, but likely to produce oddities from
time to time) start with an:
(in-package "XLIB")
//Ingvar

(defun m (f)
(let ((db (make-hash-table :test #'equal)))
#'(lambda (&rest a)
(or (gethash a db) (setf (gethash a db) (apply f a))))))

Thanks
I ended up putting xlib: before everything in the end.
BTW what're the style guidelines for using packages? I don't have a
great grasp on package concepts so if the answer is "go away and read
some docs" so be it.
Cheers,
