My first LISP snippet!

Posted on March 5th, 2004 by Sacha Chua

This parses my blog RDF and returns a sexp.

(require :xmls)
(with-open-file
 (stream "../../notebook/wiki/blog.rdf" :direction :input)
 (xmls::parse stream))

Important things learned:

- with-open-file
- how to load packages (require :package)
- how to call functions (package::function)
