Description: a Common Lisp socket interface (steeldump package) trivial-sockets is a portable socket interface that allows Common Lisp programs to open connected (client) stream sockets to network service (for example HTTP, FTP or SMTP servers) and communicate with them. It's intended mostly for "scripting" and interactive use. . Note that in the interests of simplicity and ease of porting, the functionality available through TRIVIAL-SOCKETS has been deliberately restricted. . The documentation is provided in Texinfo and HTML formats. You can generate a PDF output using the suggested texinfo package. . This is a non-Debian binary package from the steeldump repository.
