    What's the "Right Way" to read a binary file of 32-bit single
precision IEEE754 floats and put them into an unboxed 2D (10000 x
10000) array.

Portability would be nice, but I'm currently using SBCL and CLisp on
x86 Win32.

Thanks,

Greg Buchholz

I wrote something along these lines couple of months ago, I believe
this code is available from nlisp.info website as part of nlisp
distribution.

There is also this project:
