Hi
I'm trying to get slime and slime-mode working with acl82express (Allegro CL 8.2).
Here is the relevant part of my .emacs:
; This is sample code for starting and specifying defaults to the ; Emacs-Lisp interface. (push "c:/acl82express/eli" load-path) (load "fi-site-init.el") (setq fi:common-lisp-image-name "c:/acl82express/alisp") (setq fi:common-lisp-image-file "c:/acl82express/alisp.dxl") (setq fi:common-lisp-directory "c:/acl82express/")
(add-to-list 'load-path"c:/Users/Mike/Downloads/slime-current/slime-current/slime-2012-09-27/") ; your SLIME directory (setq inferior-lisp-program "c:/acl82express/allegro-express.exe") ; your Lisp system (require 'slime) (slime-setup)
When I do 'M-x slime' this is at the top of *inferior-lisp*:
(progn (load "c:/Users/Mike/Downloads/slime-current/slime-current/slime-2012-09-27/swank-loader.lisp" :verbose t) (funcall (read-from-string "swank-loader:init")) (funcall (read-from-string "swank:start-server") "c:/Users/Mike/AppData/Local/Temp/slime.8336"))
and this from *Messages*:

and it just keeps polling and when I check in c:/Users/Mike/AppData/Local/Temp/, slime.8336 isn't there.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I can repost if more/different output is needed. FWIW, I'm running under an account with admin privs.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers, Mike
I recall this happened to me a while back when I was trying out Windows 8 with SLIME... As it turns out, it happened to be how my temp folder was setup... Does it work when you set a "TEMP" environment variable so it points to a path with no spaces in it? So:
1) Create a folder in C: called "Temp"... 2) Start -> [Right Click] "Computer" -> Properties -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables... 3) At the top, set "TEMP" to "C:\Temp" (The folder you created in Step 1). 4) [Click] "Ok". 5) Start up Emacs and try SLIME again... 6) ??? 7) PROFIT!
Does this help any..?
