Hacker News Reader

It's been for years. Why is this news? ASDF-install != ASDF by the way.

The edit history shows that this notice was put up in 2006:

http://www.cliki.net/site/history?article=asdf-install

So no, this is not news.

EDIT: Actually, the history must be messed up since Quicklisp hadn't been released in 2006. Perhaps I'm reading the diffs wrong, or perhaps the cliki-import script messed up the dates. At any rate, it does not appear to be a new notice.

The king is dead, long live the king!

I've been using quicklisp for a while. It's working just fine, as far as I'm able to use it. But I haven't found out yet where the lost “user documentation” for quicklisp is buried. Do you need to read all sources in order to understand it?

You mean, besides https://www.quicklisp.org/beta/ ?

Yes, unfortunately that's the case.

There are a handful of commands described on http://www.quicklisp.org/ but there is no end-to-end, comprehensive user or developer manual.

Should read ASDF-install in the title and I really wonder how that typo happened :)

Not everyone has a qwetry.

My bad. I probably typed the title instead of copying it from the link.

ob•so•lete "no longer in use"

...which is apparently not true in this case :P

It is in fact deprecated.

"Obsolescent" it is then.

ADSF-install is obsolete
