JSCL HOW TO

JSCL HOW-TO

This page is not intent to be a comprehensive JSCL user documentation, nor a page of FAQ (since those Lisp wizards never ask, they just dig into the code and cast the spell).

This is a page for those non-wizard JSCL users to find some clues to do something, with extra links for them to find out more.

Please feel free to edit this page, add more examples or more questions.
