The gcl Portfile 50980 2009-05-14 19:41:55Z and.damore macports.org $

PortSystem 1.0
Name: gcl
Version: 2.6.7
Revision: 1
Category: lang
Maintainers: waqar
Description: GNU Common Lisp
Long Description: GCL is the official Common Lisp for the GNU project. Its design makes use of the system's C compiler to compile to native object code, providing for both good performance and facile portability. On most platforms, GCL can load native object code modules directly into its lisp core, where they are preserved in any custom lisp images produced via the save-system call.
Platform: darwin

If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/gcl
%  sudo port install gcl  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching gcl
--->  Verifying checksum for gcl
--->  Extracting gcl
--->  Configuring gcl
--->  Building gcl with target all

--->  Staging gcl into destroot

--->  Installing gcl

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using gcl with these commands:

%  man gcl
%  apropos gcl
%  which gcl
%  locate gcl
