On #lisp, Rainer Joswig suggests a course of reading to get Dan Barlow up to speed on CLIM (this transcript is slightly edited).
| <dan-b> | ok, what downloadable clim stuff should I grab before being netless for four days |
| <dan-b> | let us assume I plan to write bits of clim app in that time, and I know essentially nothing about it to start with |
| <lispm-wim2> | dan-b: all docu you can find ;-) |
| <dan-b> | bah |
| <dan-b> | you know, a suggested reading order would be a nice touch |
| <lispm-wim2> | dan-b: hmm |
| <lispm-wim2> | dan-b: you need reference stuff, like the CLIM reference |
| <lispm-wim2> | plus |
| <lispm-wim2> | the CLIM user guide from Franz and/or Xanalys |
| <lispm-wim2> | http://kantz.com/jason/clim-primer/ |
| <luis> | That primer is cool. |
| <luis> | Very short, but cool. |
| <dan-b> | time for some wget shopping, then |
| <lispm-wim2> | http://www.lispworks.com/reference/documentation.html |
| <lispm-wim2> | download the CLIM user guide |
| <lispm-wim2> | (pdf or ps) |
| <luis> | Oh, wait, I'm thinking of another one |
| <luis> | I'm going to read that then :) |
| <dan-b> | kewl. molto gracias |
| <lispm-wim2> | http://www.franz.com/support/documentation/7.0/doc/clim-ug.pdf |
| <lispm-wim2> | this should be also very useful |
| <lispm-wim2> | http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/%7etfb/misc/lp90.pdf |
| <lispm-wim2> | guided tour to clim from 1991 |
Yes! This is excellent. It should probably be added to the CLIM documentation, somewhere. (Not that I know where. I found this page trying to figure out where I should begin [G]).
