[slime-devel] Basic SLIME initialization that actually calls SLIME-LOAD-HOOK

The basic SLIME recipe in the toplevel README goes:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/hacking/lisp/slime/") (setq inferior-lisp-program "/opt/sbcl/bin/sbcl") (require 'slime) (slime-setup)

but this will trip up anybody who tries to use the contrib modules via installing functions in SLIME-LOAD-HOOK, as it will never get called when M-x slime is invoked, at least on Emacs 22.

Using this

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/hacking/lisp/slime/") (setq inferior-lisp-program "/opt/sbcl/bin/sbcl") (autoload 'slime-setup "slime.el") (slime-setup)

seems to actually get SLIME-LOAD-HOOK called.

Maybe the quick setup instructions should be changed?
