- trivial-gray-streams
- ====================
- This system provides an extremely thin compatibility layer for gray
- streams. It is nearly *too* trivial for a complete package, except that
- I have copy&pasted this code into enough projects now that I decided to
- factor it out once again now, and then *never* have to touch it again.
- How to use it
- =============
- 1. Use the package TRIVIAL-GRAY-STREAMS instead of whatever
- implementation-specific package you would have to use otherwise to
- get at gray stream symbols.
- 2. For STREAM-READ-SEQUENCE and STREAM-WRITE-SEQUENCE, notice that we
- use two required arguments and allow additional keyword arguments.
- So the lambda list when defining a method on either function should look
- like this:
- (stream sequence start end &key)
- 3. In order for (2) to work on all Lisps, make sure to subclass all your
- stream classes from TRIVIAL-GRAY-STREAM-MIXIN if you intend to define
- methods on those two generic functions.
- Extensions
- ==========
- Generic function STREAM-READ-SEQUENCE (stream sequence start end &key)
- Generic function STREAM-WRITE-SEQUENCE (stream sequence start end &key)
- See above.
- Generic function STREAM-FILE-POSITION (stream) => file position
- Generic function (SETF STREAM-FILE-POSITION) (position-spec stream) => successp
- Will only be called by LispWorks and CLISP.
