This package is a Common Lisp implemention of  red-black trees using the algorithms described in  Introduction to Algorithms, by Thomas H. Cormen, Charles E. Leiserson, Ronald L. Rivest, and Clifford Stein.

In addition to a straight-forward in-memory implementation of red-black trees, an implementation of a persistent tree is also included. The persistent implementation uses a text file for storage (for human readability), and uses an append-only strategy for updating that text file. The only portion of the file that is ever written more than once is the header (and its backup) that points to the current root of the tree.  The inspiration for the persistent implementation wasCouchDB.
