The search list code:
can be defined as follows:
(setf (ext:search-list "code:") '("/usr/lisp/code/"))
It is now possible to use code:
as an abbreviation for the directory
/usr/lisp/code/ in all file operations. For example, you can now specify
code:eval.lisp
to refer to the file /usr/lisp/code/eval.lisp.
To obtain the value of a search-list name, use the function search-list as follows:
(ext:search-list name)
Where name is the name of a search list as described above. For example,
calling ext:search-list
on code:
as follows:
(ext:search-list "code:")
returns the list ("/usr/lisp/code/")
