About These Pages
These pages were generated with my own little content management system, written in Common Lisp. It features a simple proprietary non-XML markup language (similar to Wiki markup). Documents are instances of document classes (in CLOS), for which presentation templates can be specified as (CLOS) methods. For example, blog entries are presented differently from galleries. Obviously, documents are instances of document types (I am not writing a single line of HTML by hand, and I don't like HTML editors - Lisp and a text editor are much better for that). Documents (instances of document classes) are readily created using the textual markup language.
