Subject: [clfswm-devel] New release - CLFSWM 0805
Message-ID: <84k5hrl28z.fsf@grigri.elcforest>


Hi everybody,

I'm glad to announce a new version of CLFSWM:

  http://common-lisp.net/project/clfswm/clfswm-0805.tar.gz

This version is a major update of the CLFSWM concept: There is no more
reference to workspaces. CLFSWM is a tree of frames (previously
groups) and windows. A frame can contain some windows or some other
frames with differents layout (tile, tile left...).
There is no more needs for the pager: you are in the pager. Just enter
in a frame to make it fullscreen maximized and zoom its contents.

You can find more information here:

  http://common-lisp.net/project/clfswm/

There is some screenshots and animations on the website to make
(hopefully) things more clear.

CLFSWM has now a trac system here:

  http://trac.common-lisp.net/clfswm/

And the source tree can be fetched with SVN or GIT at your
convenience:

  svn checkout svn://common-lisp.net/project/clfswm/svn/clfswm/
or
  git clone git://repo.or.cz/clfswm.git

Have fun,

Philippe

Hi folks,

today I tried to get your WM to run under Mac OS 10. I have sbcl,  
openmcl and clisp installed per fink.

All of them complain about "package xlib not found". How can I recover  
from that?


Greetings, Steffen

None of your lisp implementations seems to have CLX built in.

For sbcl and openmcl, you have to use telent CLX as described here:

  http://www.cliki.net/CLX


For clisp, you have to build one of mit-clx or new-clx.

For mit-clx, fetch the clisp source, untar it and go in the directory
clisp-2.?.?/modules/clx/mit-clx/

Here you can build the system with make or by hands:

clisp -m 4MB -q -i defsystem -x '(load-clx "" :macrosp t) (saveinitmem "clx.mem")'


Then to load CLFSWM you have to use the new lisp image with clx build
in:

clisp -M /where/is/clx.mem /where/is/clfswm/load.lisp

For sbcl it's more:

sbcl --load /where/is/the/clx/sbcl/core --load /where/is/clfswm/load.lisp


BTW, I haven't tested clfswm on Mac OS 10. I'll be happy to hear how
it works (if it works) on this system.

Regards,

Philippe
