cl-cairo2 migrated to github.com

I have migrated cl-cairo2 to github.com. If you want to install it, just clone from the repository:
git clone git://github.com/tpapp/cl-cairo2.git
You might have to create a symlink to the asd file in your ASDF systems directory. This is just a migration, no new code added. The package is no longer ASDF-installable. I have began to hate ASDF-install, it is more trouble than it is worth. For those who insist, it is possible to download a tar.gz file from Github, but the name of the link changes with updates, so I can't put one on cliki.net. Believe me, you are just better off pulling it from the git repository. Eventually, I plan to add support for Mudballs, but not soon.

cl-cairo2 updates: win32 and mac extensions

Thanks to the contributions Kei Suzuki, cl-cairo2 underwent quite a few changes. Most importantly, as Kei contributed Win32 and OS X-specific code, I decided to separate all parts of the library that use a GUI. So now if you load cl-cairo2 (using ASDF), only GUI-independent parts of the library will be loaded. If you need the rest, you will have to load cl-cairo2-x11, cl-cairo2-mac or cl-cairo2-win using ASDF. All of these put their functions in the :cl-cairo2 package, without creating a new one, so the organization of namespaces is simplified. Also, cl-cairo2 and the GUI extensions are still packaged into a single tarball, which you can download or install directly using ASDF-Install. Here are some screenshots contributed by Kei Suzuki: You can find the code for these in tutorial/lissajous.lisp and tutorial/lissajous-win.lisp.
