+<p><a href="http://retes.hu/~mega/git/?p=clon.git;a=summary">Clon</a> is a nice library for scheduling tasks within a Lisp image, but
+it used the SBCL timer extension. I wanted to run something using Clon
+on <a href="http://trac.clozure.com/openmcl">Clozure CL</a> and so I looked at the SBCL source and found that, after
+a bit of fairly straightforward editing, it was possible to write a
+portable version for any compiler supporting <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/bordeaux-threads/">Bordeaux Threads</a>. The
+SBCL timers internally use <code>sb-unix:setittimer</code>; Rather than using
+<a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/osicat/">Osicat</a> to emulate this I chose to rework the scheduling loop to run in
+a dedicated thread that sleeps on a condition variable with a
+timeout. This seems <em>cleaner</em> to me than using POSIX lib calls, but
+requires a threaded Lisp.</p>
