Having used Peter Seibel's LispBox, I finally decided to consolidate my programming environment and use Slime under my primary Emacs. I'm using Clisp 2.41 on a Windows XP machine and followed instructions on Bill Clementson's blog for the setup. However, when I attempt to start Slime with M-x slime, I get the error: Spawning child process: invalid argument. Is the problem obvious to anyone?
if i try M-x slime-connect RET RET RET, the connection is refused.
.emacs is as follows: (add-to-list 'load-path "C:/jat/site/slime") (require 'slime) (add-hook 'lisp-mode-hook (lambda () (slime-mode t))) (add-hook 'inferior-lisp-mode-hook (lambda () (inferior-slime-mode t))) ;; Optionally, specify the lisp program you are using. Default is "lisp" (setq inferior-lisp-program "clisp")
.slime.lisp is just: (load "C:/jat/site/slime/swank-loader.lisp") (swank::create-swank-server 4005)
