Package: stumpwm
Version: 0.0.4+cvs20050819-1
Severity: normal

README.Debian reads:

    Installation
    ------------

    Boot up a common lisp implementation (I use CMUCL most of the time,
    but I've tested it with SBCL as well).

    Since stumpwm has an ASDF package, load asdf (it's probably already
    loaded) and run:

    (asdf:operate 'asdf:load-op 'stumpwm)
    ...

This is too technical. What is "boot up lisp"? How it's being done? What
command to run, packages to install. Etc.

Please provide step by stem intruction how to start this window
system, otherwise README.Debian doe snot reflect the needs of regular
Debian user.
