To alleviate the problems of porting Lisp code from a Zetalispenvironment to a Sun Common Lisp environment, the Zdemos packageintroduces new functions and function enhancements into Common Lisp.Zdemos routines are written in Common Lisp and provide a number offeatures that are particular to Zetalist but otherwise unavailable inCommon Lisp. There are three types of compatibility functions provided:- The Loops package. A variety of Zetalist loop constructs are defined.
Programs that were originally written with these loop constructs aregenerally difficult to translate into other Lisps because the constructsexpand into fairly complicated forms. Loops retains the original compactform. The looping constructs are useful even for those who are notstarting from a Zetalisp base.- Zetalist functions that are not defined in Common Lisp. Many of these
are provided.- Functions that have the same name in both Lisps but have different
effects. Some functions that only take strings in Common Lisp areredefined to allow atoms or strings as in Zetalisp. Many of thesefunctions are defined.
