   Announcing my newest #commonlisp library, filepaths. It offers modern and consistent filepath (i.e. pathname) operations.

     @fosskers Thanks for sharing, and having a very good README! 🚀

     @louis God bless org-mode. I run the code blocks in the README to get the results, which are also conveniently rendered, so there's less risk of "doc drift".

     @shinmera I'll link to that as well. And of course you'd already rolled your own, haha.

     Either way my spurt of NIH was positive; I got to dig through the spec a few times and got another CL lib out the door.

     @shinmera I did it across SBCL, ECL, and ABCL, mostly because those are the ones I care about. Even just doing ECL taught me that it and SBCL don't have the same equal behaviour (one considers :version, the other doesn't).

     I should probably do more, but back when I was testing transducers and had half the world's CL implementations installed, I found many were just broken.

     Do you have a recommended list?

     @fosskers Did you test yours on all the implementations? Pathnames are such a portability mess, it's insane
