For instance, the system
package has two nicknames sys
and
si
; system:symbol
may be written as sys:symbol
or
si:symbol
.
Depending on the configuration option by which ECL has been built,
additional packages may be available: compiler
, clos
and
xlib
.
The compiler
package contains symbols used by the ECL compiler.
Other packages are described in Section 11.6 of [see Steele:84]. The
clos
package is used for the internal symbols of the Common-Lisp Object
System, which is described in Chapter 14. The xlib
package is used for
the internal symbols of CLX, the Common-Lisp Language X Interface to the X Window
System, which is described in a separate manual.
