$Revision: 5.0.2.3 $
Package: EXCL
The variable provides the default value for the libfasl keyword argument to cl:load. (libfasl is an Allegro CL-specific argument.)
The initial value of this variable is set when the image is created with build-lisp-image, using the presto argument.
Note: if an image is built with the value of the presto argument nil, Allegro Presto will not be enabled in that image and all functions will be fully loaded regardless of the value of the libfasl keyword argument to load, and thus the value of *libfasl*.
See loading.htm for information on loading. See 3.0 The Allegro Presto algorithm in loading.htm for specific information on libfasl loading and Allegro Presto.
The general documentation description is in introduction.htm. The index is in index.htm.
