Hi, sorry for the delay, I wanted to do a clean install of sbcl and quicklisp just to double check. I was having trouble getting the plotting code to work, so I cloned Lisp-Stat/plot and tried to follow the instructions:

* (asdf:clear-source-registry)

* (asdf:load-system :plot/vglt)

The error message was:

debugger invoked on a LOAD-SYSTEM-DEFINITION-ERROR in thread #<THREAD "main thread" RUNNING {1004BF80A3}>: Error while trying to load definition for system plot from pathname /Users/bobochan/common-lisp/plot/plot.asd: READ error during LOAD: The file #P"/Users/bobochan/common-lisp/plot/description.text" does not exist: No such file or directory(in form starting at line: 4, column: 0, position: 147)

The folder contents are:

'plot/vglt' is from version 1 plotting. Version 2 uses 'plot/vega'. If you're seeing VGLT in the ASDF file it means that it's the old version, and you'll need to pull in the source for a manual install from github until Quicklisp gets updated. The systems you'll need are:

- alexandria+

- data-frame

- dfio

- lisp-stat

- plot

- numerical-utilities

- select

- sqldf

It may be easier to get help from one of the community resources [1] (StackOverflow, github issue/discussion, mailing list) than HN, as those are always monitored.

Great. Thanks so much for following up. This is a great project and I am definitely looking forward to trying it and learning more.
