Till now, there was no way to make CL-Emb not store the entire processed text in memory while generating. When trying to use CL-Emb to generate a document of size greater than 100MB, it is quite unfortunate. As the main part of generating code is generated through a string, I committed a dirty workaround: one can set a variable (which defaults to "with-output-to-string (*standard-output*)") to implement some other kind of redirection. It works OK for rare uses. My questions are: 1) Is anyone else still using cl-emb? I will maintain it anyway, I will try to fix bugs reported to the mailing list etc, but I wonder whether I am the only user. 2) Does anyone else need such a bypass? 3) What would you like to get from such a feature?
