Clon is an ASDF 3 library. It currently works on Unix (including
MacOS X) and Windows (Cygwin or MinGW) and has been ported to 8 Common Lisp
implementations. It requires editor-hints.named-readtables. The
following table lists the supported platforms and some additional,
platform-dependent dependencies.
| Compiler | Minimum Version | Dependencies |
|---|---|---|
| SBCL | 1.0.56 | |
| CMU-CL | 20b | |
| CCL | ||
| ECL | 11.1.22 | |
| CLISP | cffi (optional) | |
| ABCL | 1.1.03 | |
| Allegro4 | cffi (optional) | |
| LispWorks | cffi (optional) |
As mentioned in the above table, CLISP, Allegro and LispWorks dependency
on cffi is optional. They need cffi in order to implement
terminal autodetection only (note that many other implementations come
with their own foreign function interface). If cffi cannot be
found when the ASDF system is loaded (or in the case of CLISP, if it has
been compiled without ffi support), you get a big red blinking
light and a warning but that’s all. Clon will still work, although in
restricted mode.
Clon’s ABCL port currently has two limitations:
putenv or setenv function (!!),
the modify-environment restart, normally proposed when an
environment variable is set to a bogus value, is unavailable
(see Error Management in The Clon End-User Manual).
