    the lispms have things called blinkers, which are essentially icons
    that blink on and off at a specifiable rate. is it possible to create
    such a thing in clim?

    I'd like to have something in my app windows which blinks at a steady
    rate, to notify the users that there is something of some significance
    which needs attention.

There is not presently any advertised facility in CLIM (either 1.1 or
2.0) for managing blinkers.  That is not to say that there will never be
such a facility, but there isn't one right now.
