open-server

Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: &key name topics

Establishes Lisp as a DDE server. Any client can thereafter connect to Lisp by using the service name specified by the name argument (default to *service-name*) and allowed topics specified by the topics arguments (default *service-topics*). The values of the globals referenced as the defaults are changed to the specified values if the defaults are not used. Each Lisp process may only open one DDE server though multiple clients may each open multiple ports to it.
