Lispworks major modes, crickets, Freebird

Yesterday I posted this question on the Lispworks mailing list:

Has anyone written a Perl or Shell mode for Lispworks? If you have,
my Googling could not find it. Any pointers appreciated. Thanks!

Today, after no response, I replied to myself:

And was greeted by ... crickets. :)

I'm not surprised, but I thought I'd check. Thanks anyway!

Shortly thereafter, Joe Marshall replied to me personally:

And a very quiet voice really near the back yelling ``Freebird!!!!!''

What else could I do? I downloaded Freebird from iTunes and turned the volume all the way up. Life is good. :)

(On the other hand, the implication that I'm lame is not lost on me. :)
