[cl-ppcre-devel] compiling cl-ppcre with lisps

[Leo T Butler]

Hi,

I've been trying to use cl-ppcre in Maxima (in order to generate the  
online help).
This has worked very nicely with clisp, cmucl and sbcl but other lisps  
have had problems. Gcl does not compile cl-ppcre and ecl does but it  
runs *very* slow. I wonder if you might have any thoughts about this?

Here is a link to part of the thread discussing this:
http://www.math.utexas.edu/pipermail/maxima/2011/024147.html
and here is the first item in the thread, with a link to the source
http://www.math.utexas.edu/pipermail/maxima/2011/024118.html

Thanks,
Leo
