simple URL GET

[paul tarvydas]

I want to GET a URL and put the result into a string with as little fuss as possible, but nothing seems to work.

I am trying to follow:
https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/web-scraping.html

using SBCL and LispWorks.

I'm on a MacBook (Ventura) and am getting SSL errors (plus unicode errors in Lispworks).

Reminders as to how to fix such problems would be appreciated...

thanks
