The canonical way to determine the size of a file in bytes, using Common Lisp, is to open the file with an element type of (unsigned-byte 8) and then calculate the length of the stream. This is less than ideal. In most cases it is better to get the size of the file from its metadata, using a system call.

This library exports a single function, file-size-in-octets. It returns the size of a file in bytes, using system calls when possible.

This package provides CFFI bindings to the libflac audio library for Common Lisp.

fare-utils is a small collection of utilities. It contains a lot of basic everyday functions and macros.

Loop has a consistent interface unlike other looping abstractions and ANSI list operations. You can define your own efters and gatherers that integrate tightly into other operations. All operations are non-consing when possible.

This package provides Common Lisp bindings to access the linear algebra libraries using the CBLAS API. Currently the OpenBLAS implementation is used.

Fast-io is about improving performance to octet-vectors and octet streams (though primarily the former, while wrapping the latter).

Common Lisp comes with quite some functions to compare objects for equality, yet none is applicable in every situation and in general this is hard, as equality of objects depends on the semantics of operations on them. As consequence, users find themselves regularly in a situation where they have to roll their own specialized equality test.

This module provides one of many possible equivalence relations between standard Common Lisp objects. However, it can be extended for new objects through a simple CLOS protocol. The rules when two objects are considered equivalent distinguish between mutating and frozen objects. A frozen object is promised not to be mutated in the future in a way that operations on it can notice the difference.

We have chosen to compare mutating objects only for identity (pointer equality), to avoid various problems. Equivalence for frozen objects on the other hand is established by recursing on the objects' constituent parts and checking their equivalence. Hence, two objects are equivalent under the OBJECT= relation, if they are either identical, or if they are frozen and structurally equivalent, i.e. their constituents are point-wise equivalent.

Since many objects are potentially mutable, but are not necessarily mutated from a certain point in their life time on, it is possible to promise to the equivalence relation that they remain frozen for the rest of their life time, thus enabling coarser equivalence than the often too fine-grained pointer equality.

cl-jpl-util is a collection of Common Lisp utility functions and macros, primarily for software projects written in CL by the author.

This package provides a configuration library that adds the ability for Lem to manage packages within the user configuration directory.

Skippy is a Common Lisp library to read and write GIF image files.

This is a Common Lisp library to build and compose SXQL queries dynamically.

This package provides a functionality augmenting Hunchentoot error pages and logs with request and session information.

A Common Lisp library implementing a few different kinds of queues:

• Bounded and unbounded FIFO queues.

• Lossy bounded FIFO queues that drop elements when full.

• Unbounded random-order queues that use less memory than unbounded FIFO queues.

Additionally, a synchronization wrapper is provided to make any queue conforming to the jpl-queues API thread-safe for lightweight multithreading applications. (See Calispel for a more sophisticated CL multithreaded message-passing library with timeouts and alternation among several blockable channels.)

Common Lisp implementation of Graham Cormode and S. Muthukrishnan's Effective Computation of Biased Quantiles over Data Streams in ICDE’05.

one-more-re-nightmare is a regular expression engine that uses the technique presented in Regular-expression derivatives re-examined (Owens, Reppy and Turon, 2009; doi:10.1017/S0956796808007090) to interpret and compile regular expressions.

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.

Colony provides a system and workflow that helps describe the elements needed to write 2D or 3D games. It was designed with several domain specific languages that make it easier to describe, manipulate, and use assets commonly found in game making. Such assets include (but are not limited to) textures, materials, shader programs, and scene trees of actors that are available for instantiation. Colony Engine also knows how to accept input from keyboards and most joysticks and gamepads.

The component system is a hybrid model between an ECS and an object model. The components are defined similar to CLOS defclass, and regular generic methods can be used with them. Components are added to Actors which represent game concepts like players, scenery, effects, etc. We define a component protocol invoked by Colony Engine to move your components to the next state and render them each frame.

This package provides Common Lisp FFI bindings for libwayland, primarily for the mahogany window manager.

cl-change-case is a library to convert strings between camelCase, PascalCase, snake_case, param-case, CONSTANT_CASE and more.

This library implements a basic promise datastructure, which is useful for dealing with asynchronous behaviours. Importantly, this library does not use any other libraries or frameworks, and instead leaves the execution and state transition of promise objects in your control, making it easy to integrate.

This Common Lisp library implements a parser generator for the ABNF grammar format as described in RFC2234. The generated parser is a regular expression scanner provided by the cl-ppcre lib, which means that we can't parse recursive grammar definition. One such definition is the ABNF definition as given by the RFC. Fortunately, as you have this lib, you most probably don't need to generate another parser to handle that particular ABNF grammar.

This package provides a SDL2 based vector graphic library for Common Lisp.

This is a simple library to retrieve the argument list of a function.

DATA-SIFT is a Common Lisp data validation and transformation library inspired by cl-data-format-validation and WTForms validators.
