   The method in the „FAQ" at the wiki [1] isn't good because:
- it's not always possible to „install you distro's cl-ppcre": maybe
you must compile cl-ppcre from source, and that's a problem, since a
fresh CLISP comes apparently without ASDF or MK (see [2])
- common-lisp-controller doesn't always exist
- hey, it looks like a hack...

   The instructions about compiling CLISP are to be written in [2].
There's also a description of the problem installing cl-ppcre, which
I'm still getting compiling stumpwm with clisp-2.42.
