Hi Stas,
thanks for your reply below - the behiour seems od.
If I use (slime-setup '(slime-fancy)) no repl is loaded. Likewise if i use (slime-setup '(slime-repl))
However, if I (require 'slime-repl) and manually call the repl, it appears. I then run into the other issue of communication with the lisp process.
I guess one question might be is ntemacs supported? Should i just use the canonical gnu emacs for windows?
btw, my slime setup comes from my linux box and works perfectly

Dear all,
i am trying to install slime (the latest cvs version) on Windows XP. The
beahviour below occurs with either clisp or sbcl.
The first issue is that when I start slime, lisp always appears in the *inferior lisp* buffer. I can use slime-selector to open a repl.
The second, more serious issue, is that when i do anything in the repl ,
the connection closes and i get a message
error in process filter: slime-dispatch-event: Elisp destructure-case failed: (:write-string "2 " :repl-result)
This was the result of entering (+ 1 1) in the repl.
So, any advice as to where I should start looking fr the issue?
Do you have slime-repl contrib enabled? One way to do it is (slime-setup '(slime-repl)), but a better way would be to use (slime-setup '(slime-fancy)), which enables some useful contribs, including slime-repl.
