I guess the example I gave of having two related but different files
foo.LISP and foo.lisp was a bit whimsical and therefore misleading,
sorry.

What I really wanted to point out is that substituting .lisp for .LISP
gives something which is nicer to look at but, on the other hand, we
lose some information (i.e., this lisp code is generated) and maybe
some flexibility.
