I have text files, that I read one line at a time of and process. It seems that with a very large text file ~5 Gigabytes, CMUCL gives me a file not found error rather than opening the directory. From the Unix prompt:
$ ls -l smallOut ann500K.500.e5 -rw-r--r-- 1 rif rif 5127920906 Oct 16 15:17 ann500K.500.e5 -rw-r--r-- 1 rif rif 19598533 Oct 16 08:51 smallOut In CMUCL: * (setf s (open "smallOut" :direction :input)) Warning: Declaring S special. #<Stream for file "smallOut"> * (close s) T * (setf s (open "ann500K.500.e5" :direction :input)) File-error in function OPEN: Error opening #p"ann500K.500.e5", No such file or directory.

Also in CL: * (directory (ext:default-directory)) File-error in function TRUENAME: The file "/home/rif/Projects/SpeakerRecog/NIST98/ann500K.500.e5" does not exist. Anything I can do about this?
