Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2002-10-25 Severity: wishlist * Package name : cl-binary-types Version : 0.84 Upstream Author : Frode Vatvedt Fjeld <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.cs.uit.no/~frodef/sw/binary-types/ * License : MIT/X Description : Common Lisp package for reading and writing binary files
Binary-types is a Common Lisp package for reading and writing binary files. Binary-types provides macros that are used to declare the mapping between lisp objects and some binary (i.e. octet-based) representation. Supported kinds of binary types include: * Signed and unsigned integers of any octet-size, big-endian or little-endian. Maps to lisp integers. * Enumerated types based on any integer type. Maps to lisp symbols. * Complex bit-field types based on any integer type. Sub-fields can be numeric, enumerated, or bit-flags. Maps to lisp lists of symbols and integers. * Fixed-length and null-terminated strings. Maps to lisp strings. * Compound records of other binary types. Maps to lisp DEFCLASS classes or, when you prefer, DEFSTRUCT structs. -- System Information Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux tiger 2.4.19 #1 SMP Sat Aug 3 10:05:27 MDT 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C
