Hi Luke,

No apologies necessary; I'm sorry that this is taking so much effort on your part and appreciate that you are sticking with it.

I'll look into the problem you are seeing with defsystem- compatibility. FWIW, I just successfully loaded the bundled version (currently at http://www.metabang.com/resources/cl-markdown- bundle.tar.gz) in the LispWorks personal edition. So if you haven't tried that yet, it might be worth doing so.

thanks again,

Hi Gary, I must appologize for not trying cl-markdown after you made your fixes last week. I know it sucks when I make changes in lispbuilder per user feedback and then don't receive further feedback. Anyway, I tried cl-markdown today with the latest versions of everything using darcs pull. The bad news is that cl-markdown still fails. The error returned in the SLIME buffer not make much sense, however the error in the Lipsworks buffer seems to shed more light. I have included the Lispworks buffer first and then the SLIME buffer after. The versions of the packages that I am using are as follows:

• asdf-system-connections 0.8.3

• cl-containers 0.8.3

• cl-fad 0.5.1

• cl-markdown 0.8.6

• cl-ppcre 1.2.19

• cl-who 0.6.3

• closer-mop (Feb 06 version)

• defsystem-compatibility (Fri Jun 23 version)

• html-encode 1.2

• lw-compat 0.22

• lw-doc 0.1.5

• metabang-bind (Feb 5 version)

• metatiltiies 0.6.3

• moptilities (0.3.4)
