Previous discussion of gp-export did not cover its design in details. I
think if we're going to bundle gp-export with elephant, it is better to
dicuss its features and shortcomings, so we can either try to fix them or
document them.

gp-export sounds very useful. I actually implemented something
similar to help convert databases from one lisp to another (string
serialization is not compatible across lisp implementations). This
would be a more general solution to my hack. I'll look at it when I
get a chance.

(Short introduction for those who does not know what is this about:
gp-export is a tool
to export/import databases in human-readable (SEXP) format, with
serialization based on
s-serialization of cl-prevalence, meant to work with different databases. In
previous discussions
it was considere
