The following files, which implement and document CLMAN (Franz Inc's CL Manual running under GNU Emacs), on the NeXT machine, are now available by anonymous FTP (file ~ftp/pub/franzinc/next/clman.tar.Z on hosts uunet.uu.net and ucbvax.berkeley.edu). clman.el (generic CLMAN code) next-clman.el (next-specific CLMAN code) next-cook-data.el (code for generating tables used by CLMAN) README (this document) spec.next.n (the user guide to CLMAN) This version of CLMAN documents the following categories of Franz symbols (all of which are extensions of Common Lisp): mp : the multiprocessing package about : general overviews (eg. about-compiling) compiler: the compiler package excl : the excl package foreign : the foreign-functions package sys : the system package objc : the objective-c package (Allegro CL interface to Objective C) tpl : the top-level package This is essentially the same CLMAN that is available on most platforms that support Franz's Allegro CL. Note. however, that we do not presently provide documenation on the NeXT machine for generic Common Lisp symbols. The NeXT version of CLMAN uses the Common Lisp manual database that is shipped with NeXT version 1.0. In addition, each time you look up a symbol, CLMAN saves the manual page in a special directory, for future reference. This saves nroffing time, and gives your manual the property of improving with age. If you have any questions about the installation or operation of CLMAN on the NeXT, please do not hesitate to address them to me. Enjoy, Ted Gilchrist Ted Gilchrist Franz Inc.
