Re: How do I do something after loading a module?

Hi Sunil,

Baring modifying the system itself, I'd suggest looking at [ASDF- 
system-connections][1]. It lets you define "weak" links between  
systems. so that ,. for example, system A will be loaded  
automatically as soon as both systems B and C are also loaded. From  
your discussion, this may be happening at too high a level.

Please let me know if ASC works for you and/or what you come up with.  
I think that the long term answer is that someone needs to bite the  
proverbial bullet and rewrite traverse now that CLisp handles more  
complex method combinations.
