These utilities are definitely worth sharing. I have a few of my own,
and I also use the keyword package. ASDF is a stran
OK, that's exactly the kind of feedback I needed — thanks.
I am convinced by the general feedback: defining this macro in the
keyword package is a great idea, but just not as part of asdf.
Thanks to stassats and Xach in particular for mentioning that they
were already using that trick.

Or use something like Quickutil ( http://quickutil.org/ ).
Best,
I'm jumping into this a little late, but writing as an X3J13 member who
voted on these things, the reason for not placing definitions on keyword
symbols is the same as the prohibition against placing special variable or
global operator definitions on symbols inherited from the CL package, or
any ot
packages do not obviate the need for prefixes, essential to code
readability. And then we do need packages, the worst thing that ever
happened to lisp..
but the problem here originates from a desire to share a debug hack, so the
solution prolly involves a way to share debug hacks. Could be a fun

In ASDF 3.1.0.14, I introduced a macro :DBG (in uiop/utility.lisp).
Yes, it's in the keyword package. Why?
Because it's the one and only macro I want to be accessible from everywhere
without a prefix, yet without modifying existing defpackage forms to make
it accessible — because it's only used tem
