Because, I think, for a language to be considered truly general

Because, I think, for a language to be considered truly general purpose it must be good for evil baling-wire-and-duct-tape kludges as well as for beautiful elegant robust well-engineered solutions, I have (minimal) pleasure in showing you asdf-install.lisp (temporary location).

“Not work-viewable”, as they say

Note in passing: the cclan >(foo) and :(download …) tokens are both deprecated. If you follow these rules, you can use the new :(package …) syntax instead.

  1. The CLiki page name must be the asdf system name, after downcasing
  2. The package link is either :(package “foo.tar.gz”) for a package in cCLan, or :(package “full://url/to/host/foo.tar.gz”) for a package somewhere else
  3. There is only one package link per page
  4. It must point to a gzipped tarball of an ASDF System or close approximation
  5. The package must be Free according to DFSG
