The macro WITH-INPUT-FROM-STRING can be used to make a stream from a string. (with-input-from-string (str "Foobar") (loop for i from 0 for char = (read-char str nil nil) while char do (format t "~d: ~a~%" i char))) ; 0: F ; 1: o ; 2: o ; 3: b ;...

Gray streams are a non-standard extension that allows user defined streams. It provides classes and methods that the user can extend. You should check your implementations manual to see if it provides Gray streams. For a simple example, a character input stream that returns random characters could ...

A file can be opened for reading as a stream using WITH-OPEN-FILE macro. (with-open-file (file #P"test.file") (loop for i from 0 for line = (read-line file nil nil) while line do (format t "~d: ~a~%" i line))) ; 0: Foobar ; 1: Barfoo ; 2: Quuxbar...
