#commonlisp

I had initially skipped on using define-constant and only use defvar IIRC because of reloading code at the REPL.

I intended to come back to this when it was important enough.

Now I'm reading common-lisp code and I see these two define-constant macros, one from Edi W. and one from alexandria.

https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/alexandria/alexandria/-/blob/master/alexandria-1/definitions.lisp?ref_type=heads

These look pretty similar, I think I'm gonna start using alexandria's version, because I already have standardized on it for other stuff.
