[ltk-user] Newbie Questions
Ok, new to Emacs, LISP and LTK, trying to follow along with the LTK tutorial, I am able to compile LTK and load it, but when I run the hello-l example I get the following EVAL: undefined function WITH-LTK [Condition of type SYSTEM::SIMPLE-UNDEFINED-FUNCTION] The tutorial says I need TCL/TK , which I got the source for, but how do I compile them or make LISP aware of them?
Hi, did you change into the ltk package before running the example, e.g.: (in-package :ltk) ? Peter On Dec 26, 2007 8:31 PM, Valone, Toren W. <TValone@dmv.ca.gov> wrote:

This looks as if with-ltk is called, but it cannot start the Tk subprocess. To use Ltk "out of the box", the program called "wish" needs to be executable via your system path. To test, open a dos shell and type "wish". If Tk is properly installed, it should start up. Alternatively you can do (setf ltk:*wish-pathname* "c:\program files\mywish.exe") where you have to replace "c:\program files\mywish.exe" with the correct path to where you installed "whish".

Ok, not to sound like a total rube, but where is the easiest place to get wish.exe? I was able to download and install wish85.exe, but it does not appear to be the same.

Hi Toren, the easiest way is to download from http://www.equi4.com/pub/tk/downloads.html You should choose the right species from the table. The left column is reserved for alpha / binary releases, so do not pick one of these. Also do not choose the bottom part (TclSh) In my case I downloaded the Windows UPX (this is important!) version 8.4.16. The downloaded file is called tclkit-win32.upx.exe. In order to use it properly you need to do the following: 1. rename the downloaded file to wish.exe 2. move the file to a directory which is in the search PATH for your OS (in Windows this would be in a directory which is in the environment variable PATH) After doing that retry using it. Good luck, Arie P.S. Alternatively you could download and install ActiveState Tcl/Tk, but that's like shooting with a nuclear bomb at a bug ;-) You can download it here http://www.activestate.com/Products/activetcl/ 2007/12/27, Valone, Toren W. <TValone@dmv.ca.gov>:

Toren, I would suggest learning a bit of Lisp first. Google for the "Practical Common Lisp" book (also available online), and take a look at chapters dealing with packages. I find comp.lang.lisp also very useful. (newbie) Mirko
