NOTE: There is *no* leading slash before user/ai/lang/lisp/; just type "cd user/ai/lang/lisp/" at the ftp> prompt. If you will be transferring compressed files, be sure to type the "binary" command before retrieving the files. The "get" command is used to get a single file, and "mget" to retrieve multiple files using wildcards. If you're using the "mget" command, you might want to turn off prompting first by using the "prompt" command. The Lisp Utilities Repository is kept in the Andrew File System (AFS) directory /afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/ai-repository/ai/lang/lisp/ and its subdirectories. If your site runs AFS, you can just cd to this directory and copy the files directly. (The FTP location given above is just a link to the AFS directory.) Further information about AFS can be obtained by sending email to afs-sales@transarc.com.

Welcome to the Common Lisp Repository. The Common Lisp Repository (formerly the Lisp Utilities Repository) was established by Mark Kantrowitz in 1990 to collect files and programs of general interest to Common Lisp programmers. Many of the programs will run in any Common Lisp implementation; others are easily ported. Information files include the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) postings for the comp.lang.lisp and comp.lang.clos newsgroups, introductions to some Lisp topics, and some summaries of topics of interest to Common Lisp programmers. In 1993 the Lisp Utilities Repository was incorporated into the CMU Artificial Intelligence Repository, and was renamed the Common Lisp Repository to reflect an expanded mission. If this is the first time you have used the Repository, please read this file and the file named readme.txt. The file readme.txt contains important information concerning the repository and conditions on use of the repository. By retrieving files from the repository, you signify your agreement to these conditions. Other files of interest to new users include copying.txt, the license for the programs written by Mark Kantrowitz. To contribute files to the repository, first see section [7] of the readme.txt file. Then send mail to lisp-utilities-request@cs.cmu.edu. If possible, please put the files in ftp.cs.cmu.edu:user/ai/new/.
