Yes, the menu entries are created from directories listed in the
XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable. I've to rework this part since this
variable is not set in many distributions.

Well, I like the Practial Common Lisp (PCL) from Peter Seibel, the Paul
Graham ANSI Common Lisp and OnLisp. And the Paradigms of Artificial
Intelligence Programming: Case Studies in Common Lisp (PAIP) from Peter
Norvig. The Doug Hoyte Let Over Lambda is also very impressive.
You can read PCL and OnLisp online.
You'll find more information on the cliki: http://www.cliki.net/Lisp%20books
The Hyperspec, the CLTL2 and the CLX Manual are also indispensable.
