Which sections of which docs, examples, and Usenet articles were confusing to you?


I didn't read anything in detail, because it looked not very structured,
even a simple list which macros are available is missing (see
http://www.weitz.de/tbnl/ for an example how a good documentation looks
like). And the first link on http://common-lisp.net/project/cells/ says
something about "the old Cells homepage". This makes me think that there
will be a new homepage, but I didn't found anything.

Ok, lets try it.

Thanks for the brave effort, but the issue was Phillip's documentation vs. my documentation. btw, no argument: Phillip is a fine writer. meanwhile...

As you say, you "didn't read anything in detail", nor have you now commented on the readability of the very long excerpt I posted from 01-cell-basics.lisp.

Instead, the topic gets shifted to the quality of the installation instructions. I could look at those, but this is easier:

You win! I give up!
