Suppress "loading" output in Quicklisp

Is there a way to have quicklisp load a library without sending:

To load "drakma":
  Load 1 ASDF system:
    drakma
; Loading "drakma"

To standard out? I've tried adding :verbose nil and :explain nil to the arguments of ql:quickload (which is how I'm loading the libraries now) but it seems that those are the defaults -- turning them on just increases the amount of output.

Thanks for your help!

Solution

  • The :silent option for quicklisp is missing from this list of answers. Since the latest answer is from 2013, maybe that option was added after then.

    Here's how you use it:

    (ql:quickload "my-code" :silent t)
