Re: good word for digitool

If Franz Kafka were a Lisp programmer, he would be an MCL user -- waiting patiently by the outer gate of the
castle, year after year, hoping for some word from on high -- if not an announcement then maybe at least a
rumor, a hint, a sign. Now and then Kafka meets another faithful Digitool devotee; they commiserate, and
compare notes. Are they fools to stand around waiting all this time? Are the Lords of Lisp up there in the
turrets of the castle looking down at them and laughing? Or is the castle actually abandoned, vacant,
falling to ruin? They fear the worst, but in the end they decide to wait a while more. After all these months
and years, why lose hope now? 5.2 will be great when it gets here.
