Works for me with - emacs 26.1 - slime 2.23 - clisp 2.49.93+
on Darwin and on Linux.
Running M-x slime in emacs with 'inferior-lisp-program' set to 'clisp' starts slime fine. I can usually run one evaluation (like say (+ 2 3)), whereupon any other action (pressing 'enter', say) will result in a disconnect:
Lisp connection closed unexpectedly: connection broken by remote peer
Add a ~/.swank.lisp file with a line such as:
#+clisp (defparameter swank:*use-dedicated-output-stream* nil)
(a) rlwrap clisp
rlwrap shouldn’t be needed with clisp, since it can be compiled with readline. This is the reason why clisp is GPL!
(b) (load "~/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/slime-v2.24/swank-loader.lisp") (c) (swank-loader::init :reload t) (d) (swank:create-server :port 7000) (e) from within emacs: M-x slime-connect with localhost and port 7000
Same behavior as before: I get connected, get to make a few evaluations, get disconnected.
This time around rlwrap tells me (in the terminal where I started clisp):
rlwrap: warning: clisp crashed, killed by SIGSEGV
This should not occur.
Since you don’t seem to have readline compiled in, perhaps you don’t have libsigsegv compiled in either? I would advise you to recompile clisp with those essential libraries!
Have a look at the script I currently use to compile and install clisp from sources: https://github.com/informatimago/install/blob/master/install-pjb-environment... Don’t use this script indiscriminately, it installs a lot of things!!! Instead, copy and paste what you need.
