Thanks for the super quick reply. I just came to the same conclusion and came back to reply.

I spent a few minutes in sb-posix\interface.lisp in SBCL and found that fork was defined under:

#-win32

Which apparently means it's not part of the win32 version. Bummer...

I'll post if I come up with a valid workaround.

Thanks again! (by the way, the wart's code is a joy to read and makes it simple to troubleshoot)

That is awesome to hear. Arc is a readable language; making the implementation readable is my only goal.

Feel free to ping me by email as well (address in profile).

I'm using wart as a way to help ease me into Common Lisp. I've had difficulty before reading CL code because the names of common operators are so different from arc's (the lisp dialect I know best). wart helps by putting it in familiar terms.
