Hello Jack,

first of all, thanks for offering help to a newbie !

You're welcome!

Nothing unusal happens so far, everything compiles fine. When I load and start the tests it seems to evaluate and hangs, so that means it doesn't return to the normal prompt.

That actually might be a sign that things are OK.

I thought that I'm doing something wrong with that patch for sbcl, tried the demo from lisphacker.com - the same, nothing happens.

OK, that's helpful info. Check your taskbar and see if in fact a window did get created but at the bottom of the desktop Z-order instead of the top. I notice this happening no matter whether I use SBCL or CLISP, and it has something to do with the console window. Whereas, if I run an application delivered as an executable, the window appears as you would normally expect.
