[Gcl-devel] BLAS for GCL

[Camm Maguire]

Greetings!  Anyone interested in this?  I don't know if anyone really
uses lisp for numerical as opposed to symbolic work.  But an
advantage, at least on Debian systems, would be that implementing the
interface once would also work for atlas support, which is a *highly*
efficient implementation.

There is already lisp written for this at sourceforge, but I'm unclear
as to how to incorporate it.  Should it be like readline, where
support for blas is added in at compile-time depending on the
availability?  Or should it be an optional loadable module?  Do we
really want to make *all*  gcl saved binaries depend on blas?

Take care,
