Arguments: system &rest rest &key &allow-other-keys
This generic function makes the fasl files of the modules in system up to date by performing a Unix touch command (or equivalent) on each of the fasl files. This is similar to make -t in Unix. The defsystem facility uses the Unix filesystem creation timestamp when checking whether a source file needs to be reloaded or recompiled.
The &allow-other-keys allows any keywords to be specified. The default method looks at only two: silent and simulate.
The value of the silent keyword argument can
be t or nil. Its
default value is nil. t means do not print anything while performing the
operation. This is similar to make -s. A
true value of simulate
overrides silentt.
The value of the simulate keyword argument can
be t or nil.
t means print the list of actions that would
be taken if the operations were to be performed at this time, but do
not actually perform the operations. This is similar to make
-n.
