Got it. I've been using the two interchangeably which no doubt explains everything.
Thanks. Jeff

Greetings,
This problem has been bothering me for awhile. If I start emacs and then slime in one directory and M-x cd to another, even though M-x pwd tells me I am in the other directory, running a simple piece of code like
(with-open-file (*standard-output* "test" :direction :output) (print (get-universal-time)))
demonstrates that Lisp still thinks it's "current" directory is the first directory.
How do you get around this problem? The only way I know is to kill the current inferior-lisp, change directories, and start a new one, which seems somewhat over-kill to say the least.
Regards,
Jeff
The Emacs M-x cd command only changes the Emacs default-directory. To change the Common Lisp *DEFAULT-PATHNAME-DEFAULTS*, too, type a comma at the CL-USER> prompt in the *slime-repl* buffer, then a Command: prompt appears in the Emacs minibuffer, where you type cd, and then the directory where you want to change to.
