BOOST-JSON is a simple JSON parsing library for Common Lisp.

Alternative to the compiler-macro library:

• Here, we do not treat compiler notes as warnings, but instead these are a separate class of conditions. These are also not errors.

• Two main condition classes are provided: compiler-macro-notes:note and compiler-macro-notes:optimization-failure-note. While the latter is a subclass of the former, the latter notes are printed in a slightly different manner to the former.

• To be able to correctly print the expansion path that led to the condition, user code is expected to avoid performing a nonlocal exit to a place outside with-notes.

This package provides an extensible implementation of defclass that can accurately control the expansion according to the metaclass and automatically detect the suitable metaclass by analyzing the defclass form.

parse-number is a library of functions for parsing strings into one of the standard Common Lisp number types without using the reader. parse-number accepts an arbitrary string and attempts to parse the string into one of the standard Common Lisp number types, if possible, or else parse-number signals an error of type invalid-number.

This package provides Common Lisp bindings to POSIX message queue, an IPC method that is easy to use and quick to setup.

The GTWIWTG library (Generators The Way I Want Them Generated -- technically not generators, but iterators) is meant to be small, explorable, and understandable.

STMX is a high-performance implementation of composable Transactional Memory, which is a concurrency control mechanism aimed at making concurrent programming easier to write and understand. Instead of traditional lock-based programming, one programs with atomic memory transactions, which can be composed together to make larger atomic memory transactions.

A memory transaction gets committed if it returns normally, while it gets rolled back if it signals an error (and the error is propagated to the caller).

Finally, memory transactions can safely run in parallel in different threads, are re-executed from the beginning in case of conflicts or if consistent reads cannot be guaranteed, and their effects are not visible from other threads until they commit.

Memory transactions give freedom from deadlocks, are immune to thread-safety bugs and race conditions, provide automatic roll-back on failure, and aim at resolving the tension between granularity and concurrency.

The Readline library provides a set of functions for use by applications that allow users to edit command lines as they are typed in. Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available. The Readline library includes additional functions to maintain a list of previously-entered command lines, to recall and perhaps reedit those lines, and perform csh-like history expansion on previous commands.

THE-COST-OF-NOTHING is a library for measuring the run time of Common Lisp code. It provides macros and functions for accurate benchmarking and lightweight monitoring. Furthermore, it provides predefined benchmarks to determine the cost of certain actions on a given platform and implementation.

Vom is a logging library for Common Lisp. It's goal is to be useful and small. It does not provide a lot of features as other loggers do, but has a small codebase that's easy to understand and use.

This is a utility library providing access to the mmap family of functions in a portable way. It allows you to directly map a file into the address space of your process without having to manually read it into memory sequentially. Typically this is much more efficient for files that are larger than a few Kb.

This package provides a small utility library to open a thing (usually a file or URL) in an appropriate handler (usually an external file manager or browser).

This piece of code sets up some reader macros that make it simpler to input string literals which contain backslashes and double quotes This is very useful for writing complicated docstrings and, as it turns out, writing code that contains string literals that contain code themselves.

Screamer is an extension of Common Lisp that adds support for nondeterministic programming. Screamer consists of two levels. The basic nondeterministic level adds support for backtracking and undoable side effects. On top of this nondeterministic substrate, Screamer provides a comprehensive constraint programming language in which one can formulate and solve mixed systems of numeric and symbolic constraints. Together, these two levels augment Common Lisp with practically all of the functionality of both Prolog and constraint logic programming languages such as CHiP and CLP(R). Furthermore, Screamer is fully integrated with Common Lisp. Screamer programs can coexist and interoperate with other extensions to as CLIM and Iterate.

A utility for running external programs, built on UIOP. Cmd is designed to be natural to use, protect against shell interpolation and be usable from multi-threaded programs.

MGL-GPR is a library of evolutionary algorithms such as Genetic Programming (evolving typed expressions from a set of operators and constants) and Differential Evolution.

This package provides audio input and output functions to Common Lisp using bindings to the portaudio library.

This is a Common Lisp library to present tabular data in ascii-art tables.

MAP-BIND is a macro that allows visual grouping of variables with their corresponding values in calls to mapping operators when using an inline LAMBDA.

This is a Common Lisp library to read and write disk-based file archives such as those generated by the tar and cpio programs on Unix.

CL-LOG is a general purpose logging utility, loosely modelled in some respects after Gary King's Log5. Its features include: logging to several destinations at once, via "messengers", each messenger is tailored to accept some log messages and reject others, and this tailoring can be changed on-the-fly, very rapid processing of messages which are rejected by all messengers, fully independent use of the utility by several different sub-systems in an application, support for messengers which cl:format text to a stream, support for messengers which do not invoke cl:format, timestamps in theory accurate to internal-time-units-per-second.

This package provides functions to emit XML, with some complexity for handling indentation. It can be used to produce all sorts of useful XML output; it has an RSS 2.0 emitter built in, so you can make RSS feeds trivially.

This Common Lisp library implements object prevalence (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_prevalence). It allows for (de)serializing to and from s-exps as well as XML. Serialization of arbitrary classes and cyclic data structures are supported.

This is a utility kit for cl-sdl2 that provides something similar to GLUT. However, it's also geared at being useful for "real" applications or games.
