When dealing with network protocols and file formats, it's common to have to read or write 16-, 32-, or 64-bit datatypes in signed or unsigned flavors. Common Lisp sort of supports this by specifying :element-type for streams, but that facility is underspecified and there's nothing similar for read/write from octet vectors. What most people wind up doing is rolling their own small facility for their particular needs and calling it a day.

This library attempts to be comprehensive and centralize such facilities. Functions to read 16-, 32-, and 64-bit quantities from octet vectors in signed or unsigned flavors are provided; these functions are also SETFable. Since it's sometimes desirable to read/write directly from streams, functions for doing so are also provided. On some implementations, reading/writing IEEE singles/doubles (i.e. single-float and double-float) will also be supported.

Splits sequence into a list of subsequences delimited by objects satisfying the test.

This package provides a Common Lisp web framework for building GUI applications. CLOG can take the place, or work along side, most cross platform GUI frameworks and website frameworks. The CLOG package starts up the connectivity to the browser or other websocket client (often a browser embedded in a native template application).

This data structure can be used to store the history of visited paths or URLs with a file or web browser, in a way that no “forward” element is ever forgotten.

The history tree is “global” in the sense that multiple owners (e.g. tabs) can have overlapping histories. On top of that, an owner can spawn another one, starting from one of its nodes (typically when you open a URL in a new tab).

fast-http is a HTTP request/response protocol parser for Common Lisp.

This package provides a Common Lisp library for manipulating graphs and running graph algorithms.

Just wrap your Common Lisp function in this macro call and it will be optimized for tail recursion. You will be warned if the function is not tail recursive.

This package provides a Common Lisp system which has only one function to return the CPU count of the current system.

This system is an implementation of the Common Lisp type system; particularly cl:typep and cl:subtypep.

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

Filtered functions provide an extension of CLOS generic function invocation that add a simple preprocessing step before the actual method dispatch is performed and thus enable the use of arbitrary predicates for selecting and applying methods. See http://www.p-cos.net/documents/filtered-dispatch.pdf for a paper that introduces and explains filtered functions in detail.

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

The Babel library solves a similar problem while understanding more encodings. Trivial UTF-8 was written before Babel existed, but for new projects you might be better off going with Babel. The one plus that Trivial UTF-8 has is that it doesn't depend on any other libraries.

This is a a Common Lisp re-implementation of the Rails routes system for mapping URLs.

This package provides a Common Lisp system which has only one function to return the CPU count of the current system.

CL-DISKSPACE is a Common Lisp library to list disks with the command line tool df and get disk space information using statvfs.

This package provides a Common Lisp system CHLOROPHYLL which implements an ANSI escape code functionality.

This is a dead-simple, non validating, inline CSS generator for Common Lisp. Its goals are axiomatic syntax, simple implementation to support portability, and boilerplate reduction in CSS.

cl-charms is an interface to libcurses in Common Lisp. It provides both a raw, low-level interface to libcurses via CFFI, and a more higher-level lispier interface.

colorize is a Lisp library for syntax highlighting supporting the following languages: Common Lisp, Emacs Lisp, Scheme, Clojure, C, C++, Java, Python, Erlang, Haskell, Objective-C, Diff, Webkit.

An implementation of the exponential backoff algorithm in Common Lisp. Inspired by the implementation found in Chromium. Read the header file to learn about each of the parameters.

GENERIC-COMPARABILITY is an implementation of CDR-8 (Generic Equality and Comparison for Common Lisp). CDR-8 provides an interface for the EQUALS function, which is defined as a general equality predicate, as well as a set of ordering (COMPARE) functions for comparison. The semantics are described in the CDR-8 standard.

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.
