1. with-wish.lsp has no chances to work with clisp (or *anything*)
under win32, because in their infinite wisdom, MS decided that a
program can have no more than one out of stdio or windows, and when
wish opens a window, it looses stdin, thus clisp cannot control it. I
had the same problem with gnuplot: I can start it from clisp, but I
cannot control it (I could under X!) Confound MS! The upshot is: tk
support from within CLISP or bust...
2. X3J13 (how did they come up with such a wondrous letter/digit
combination?) voted in June 1989 <40> to add a new reader control
variable, *read-eval*. (CLtL2 22.1.2 p 524)It seems to be of enormous
importance to security, but is apparently missing from CLISP.
