Forge is a generic build system. Refer to documentation for the specific kind of project you're building to get the full picture.

BST is a Common Lisp library for working with binary search trees that can contain any kind of values.

Conium is a portability library for debugger- and compiler-related tasks in Common Lisp. It is fork of SWANK-BACKEND.

Clamp is an attempt to bring the powerful, but verbose, language of Common Lisp up to the terseness of Arc.

There are two parts to Clamp. There is the core of Clamp, which implements the utilities of Arc that are easily converted from Arc to Common Lisp. The other part is the "experimental" part. It contains features of Arc that are not so easy to copy (ssyntax, argument destructuring, etc.).

Agnostic Lizard is a portable implementation of a code walker and in particular of the macroexpand-all function (and macro) that makes a best effort to be correct while not expecting much beyond what the Common Lisp standard requires.

It aims to be implementation-agnostic and to climb the syntax trees.

This library is a collection of pseudo random number generators.

While Common Lisp does provide a RANDOM function, it does not allow the user to pass an explicit SEED, nor to portably exchange the random state between implementations. This can be a headache in cases like games, where a controlled seeding process can be very useful.

For both curiosity and convenience, this library offers multiple algorithms to generate random numbers, as well as a bunch of generally useful methods to produce desired ranges.

Enchant is a Common Lisp interface for the Enchant spell-checker library. The Enchant library is a generic spell-checker library which uses other spell-checkers transparently as back-end. The library supports the multiple checkers, including Aspell and Hunspell.

A collection of Common Lisp utility functions and macros mostly not found in other utility packages.

This Common Lisp library interprets escape characters the same way that most other programming language do. It provides four readtables. The default one lets you write strings like this: #"This string has a newline in it!".

FSet is a functional set-theoretic collections library for Common Lisp. Functional means that all update operations return a new collection rather than modifying an existing one in place. Set-theoretic means that collections may be nested arbitrarily with no additional programmer effort; for instance, sets may contain sets, maps may be keyed by sets, etc.

This library provides a uniform API, as specified in Common Lisp the Language 2, for accessing information about variable and function bindings from implementation-defined lexical environment objects. All major Common Lisp implementations are supported, even those which don't support the CLTL2 environment access API.

This library is a small interface to portable but nonstandard introspection of Common Lisp environments. It is intended to allow a bit more compile-time introspection of environments in Common Lisp.

Quite a bit of information is available at the time a macro or compiler-macro runs; inlining info, type declarations, that sort of thing. This information is all standard - any Common Lisp program can (declare (integer x)) and such.

This info ought to be accessible through the standard &environment parameters, but it is not. Several implementations keep the information for their own purposes but do not make it available to user programs, because there is no standard mechanism to do so.

This library uses implementation-specific hooks to make information available to users. This is currently supported on SBCL, CCL, and CMUCL. Other implementations have implementations of the functions that do as much as they can and/or provide reasonable defaults.

Command-Line-Args provides a main macro (command) that wraps a defun form and creates a new function that parses the command line arguments. It has support for command-line options, positional, and variadic arguments. It also generates a basic help message. The interface is meant to be easy and non-intrusive.

lparallel is a library for parallel programming in Common Lisp, featuring:

• a simple model of task submission with receiving queue,

• constructs for expressing fine-grained parallelism,

• asynchronous condition handling across thread boundaries,

• parallel versions of map, reduce, sort, remove, and many others,

• promises, futures, and delayed evaluation constructs,

• computation trees for parallelizing interconnected tasks,

• bounded and unbounded FIFO queues,

• high and low priority tasks,

• task killing by category,

• integrated timeouts.

F2cl is a Common Lisp library that can convert Fortran 77 code into Common Lisp code.

This package provides the Common Lisp part of the emacs-slite test runner.

HTTP-Body parses HTTP POST data and returns POST parameters. It supports application/x-www-form-urlencoded, application/json, and multipart/form-data.

This Common Lisp library interprets escape characters the same way that most other programming language do. It provides four readtables. The default one lets you write strings like this: #"This string has a newline in it!".

This is a Common Lisp library to load images in the PNG image format, both from files on disk, or streams in memory.

This library is a Common Lisp port of all the constants from the event codes header file found on Linux and FreeBSD.

This library converts the elements from GObject Introspection into Common Lisp-style definitions, based on cl-gobject-introspection.

High performance JSON encoder and decoder. Currently support: SBCL, CCL.

This library provides all of

• ad hoc polymorphism and

• subtype polymorphism

• parametric polymorphism (in a very limited sense)

to dispatch on the basis of types rather than classes.

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.
