Find a file
Marius Gerbershagen e41a5efcb5 avoid unnecessary network requests when reading directories on emscripten
If we call stat in order to find out if a filename points to a
directory or an ordinary file, the emscripten stdlib may need to do a
network request to find out the size of the file even though we don't
care about that. This happens for files created with
FS.createLazyFile() by emscripten. By using readlink/opendir when
possible we avoid that.

ECL stands for Embeddable Common-Lisp. The ECL project aims to produce an implementation of the Common-Lisp language which complies to the ANSI X3J13 definition of the language.

The term embeddable refers to the fact that ECL includes a Lisp to C compiler, which produces libraries (static or dynamic) that can be called from C programs. Furthermore, ECL can produce standalone executables from Lisp code and can itself be linked to your programs as a shared library. It also features an interpreter for situations when a C compiler isn't available.

ECL supports the operating systems Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly BSD, OpenBSD, Solaris (at least v. 9), Microsoft Windows (MSVC, MinGW and Cygwin) and OSX, running on top of the Intel, Sparc, Alpha, ARM and PowerPC processors. Porting to other architectures should be rather easy.
