Does anyone know where I might find CommonLisp code that implements logical pathnames, ala TI, Symbolics, CADR, etc? How about DEFSYSTEM ? Thanks Scott (This group is definitely a candy store for Lisp Hackers)

I'm looking for some pointers on how to customize a Symbolics 8.0 environment for logical pathnames. I use my Symbolics as an entry point to a large network with many hosts, each of which has my files far sown on the directory chain. I'm tired of typing frodo:/usr/home/project/myname/division/fname.type or some such for each file I access on each host on which I have an account. I know that there must be a way to define an abbreviation so that I can get right to symbolic_directory_name>fname.type on the hosts of my choice, but I have't yet found the pointer to it.

If memory serves me correctly, anonymous FTP to: a.gp.cs.cmu.edu and a cd to: /usr/mkant/public should get you to a number of Common Lisp utilities, including a portable CLtL2 logical pathname implementation and a DEFSYSTEM.
