[Openmcl-devel] OpenGL / Lisp User Interface / XMLisp 0.3

[John Miller]

Alex,

Very nice.  I wait with bated breath to see how things go with  
Cocotron and Win32.  I had a few minutes to play around and put  
together the following tries at writing the nehe tutorials using  
XMLisp.    Between the two files you can find tries at lessons 11, 12,  
and 19.  You will need to download the textures, or find a suitable  
substitue.  Most of the early nehe lessons are pretty uninteresting in  
XMLisp, so I haven't bothered with those.  I consider it a testament  
to the design of XMLisp that most of my time was spent tracking down  
typos on my part.  It is very nice to be able to update the drawing  
code while the animation is running...

I have noticed that sometimes Clozure will want to take over all my  
CPU resources.  I am not sure what I am doing to cause this.  I only  
have noticed that when this happens a number of processes for  
anticipatory completion appear and cannot be killed.  Anyone else have  
this happen?

Thanks for the fun toy,
