Can someone refer me to either on-line or published documentation describing
how to create, manipulate, and destroy C data structures from Common LISP
on the NeXT? The on-line docs provided with Common LISP aren't much help,
as their roff formatting means the digital librarian can't index them very
well, while the Franz reference manual is mainly useful if you already know
the names of the features you are looking for. I also have the Guy Steele
Jr. book somewhere, but have found that it suffers from the same problem as
anything associated with Common LISP--too big. This is what comes of using
a language designed by a committee, I guess. I just wish it were easier
to get to the documentation on the features of particular interest. Perhaps
the next Common LISP manual will be in hypertext format :-)
Thanks in advance,
Ken Mc
