You might be interested in "Porting Pan I to Allegro COMMON Lisp",
Darrin Lane, Report # UCB/CSD 88/453, September, 1988 {U of Calif.,
Berkeley}.  It describes a port of an 18000 line program from Franz
to Allegro and covers file & buffer i/o, keystroke handling, etc. and
has a set of example macros in the appendix.  Not a panacea, but seems
a reasonable description of the issues.
