This package provides simple format directives to print in colors.

cl-ansi-text provides utilities which enable printing to an ANSI terminal with colored text. It provides the macro with-color which causes everything printed in the body to be displayed with the provided color. It further provides functions which will print the argument with the named color.

This is an implementation of the Unicode Standards Annex #14 (http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr14/) line breaking algorithm. It provides a fast and convenient way to determine line breaking opportunities in text.

Note that this algorithm does not support break opportunities that require morphological analysis. In order to handle such cases, please consult a system that provides this kind of capability, such as a hyphenation algorithm.

Also note that this system is completely unaware of layouting decisions. Any kind of layouting decisions, such as which breaks to pick, how to space between words, how to handle bidirectionality, and what to do in emergency situations when there are no breaks on an overfull line are left up to the user.

cl-mssql provides an interface to connect to Microsoft SQL server. It uses the libsybdb foreign library provided by the FreeTDS project.

CL-DATA-STRUCTURES is a Common Lisp library providing a portable collection of mutable and immutable data structures (dictionaries, sets, queues, sequences) and algorithms.

This library is a portable compatibility layer around "Common Lisp the Language, 2nd Edition" (https://www.cs.cmu.edu/Groups/AI/html/cltl/clm/node102.html) and it exports symbols from implementation-specific packages.

This library implements efficient algorithms that calculate various string metrics in Common Lisp:

• Damerau-Levenshtein distance

• Hamming distance

• Jaccard similarity coefficient

• Jaro distance

• Jaro-Winkler distance

• Levenshtein distance

• Normalized Damerau-Levenshtein distance

• Normalized Levenshtein distance

• Overlap coefficient

Gray streams is an interface proposed for inclusion with ANSI CL by David N. Gray. The proposal did not make it into ANSI CL, but most popular CL implementations implement it. This package provides an extremely thin compatibility layer for gray streams.

CLX is an X11 client library for Common Lisp. The code was originally taken from a CMUCL distribution, was modified somewhat in order to make it compile and run under SBCL, then a selection of patches were added from other CLXes around the net.

This is an extension to MODULARIZE that allows your application to define interfaces in-code that serve both as a primary documentation and as compliance control.

dbi is a Common Lisp library providing a database independent interface for MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite.

This library implements various functions to access status information about the machine, process, etc.

LMDB, the Lightning Memory-mapped Database, is an ACID key-value database with multiversion concurrency control. This package is a Common Lisp wrapper around the C LMDB library. It covers most of C LMDB's functionality, has a simplified API, much needed safety checks, and comprehensive documentation.

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.

Cluster is an assembler (initially for x86 and x86-64) with a difference. To avoid the issue of defining a syntax, the input to Cluster is a list of standard objects (i.e., instances of the class STANDARD-OBJECT), as opposed to a character file or S-expressions.

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.

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.

In Common Lisp, a special variable that is never dynamically bound typically serves as a stand-in for a global variable. The global-vars library provides true global variables that are implemented by some compilers. An attempt to rebind a global variable properly results in a compiler error. That is, a global variable cannot be dynamically bound.

Global variables therefore allow us to communicate an intended usage that differs from special variables. Global variables are also more efficient than special variables, especially in the presence of threads.

This library provides an asynchronous process execution mechanism for Common Lisp.

CL-HTTPS-EVERYWHERE parses HTTPS Everywhere rulesets and makes them available for use in Lisp programs.

MOP utilities provide a common interface between Lisps and make the MOP easier to use.

This package defines a Common Lisp package, :elements, with an ELEMENT structure and a number of functions to search the periodic table.

cl-json provides an encoder of Lisp objects to JSON format and a corresponding decoder of JSON data to Lisp objects. Both the encoder and the decoder are highly customizable; at the same time, the default settings ensure a very simple mode of operation, similar to that provided by yason or st-json.

This package provides a Common Lisp Twitter client featuring full API coverage.
