I have:

(mapcar (lambda (args)
          (apply #'create-static-file-dispatcher-and-handler args))
        '(("/cms2/" "client/index.html")
          ("/cms2/styles" "client/styles.css" "text/css")
          ("/cms2/opened.gif" "client/arrowdown.gif" "image/gif")
          ("/cms2/closed.gif" "client/arrowright.gif" "image/gif")
          ("/cms2/common.js" "client/common.js" "text/plain")))))

as part of my setup for *dispatch-table*.  When I surfed to:

  http://localhost:3000/cms2/closed.gif

I got the error in the log file.

Nope.  But then I did. ;)  Thanks for the pointer.

In a nutshell, once you push :tbnl-bivalent-streams onto *features*, you
can use the sbcl/tbnl combo as standalone.  This really cool for those
of us who might want to deploy to a desktop and have users surf to a
local admin app, or deploying to a demo machine, etc, etc.

Anyway, thanks!
