Description
Thanks for the cookbook it is an awesome resource. In the section on debugging under advise and watch it says:
> They do exist in SBCL but are not exported.
That would be really great as being able to set a watch on some variable and breaking when it's modified is the one thing I miss from emacs lisp. I can't find anything else on this searching online, or searching the whole sbcl source code for "advise" and "watch".
