I would like to use some ps macros in a .parenscript file. The macros are in a library that will be loaded with quicklisp. I am using sigil to compile the .parenscript file.
I have tried this at the top of the parenscript file:
(lisp
(progn
(ql:quickload 'paren6)
(use-package :paren6)))
but the macro package does not get "used".
Loading the libraries from the command line works:
>sigil --eval "(progn (ql:quickload 'paren6) (use-package :paren6))" sample.parenscript
But it feels clunky, and sigil needs a small hack to prevent it from dumping the output from quickload into the javascript output - indicating that no one else is doing things this way.
I am using sigil because I prefer to build .parenscript -> .js from the command line. Alternatives to sigil will be considered.
What is the best way to indicate a quicklisp dependency for a .parenscript file?
Tracked this one down: Sigil sets *package*
to ps
except when evaluating lisp
forms, where it's left as common-lisp-user
so your use-package
was affecting the wrong package, and your symbols went wonky.
Try (use-package 'paren6 'ps)
