Hi, I'm trying to work on a lisp app (maxima) which "make"s to a core file. My usual model being to compile a recent version of CVS, load slime with said core file and then C-M-x changes I make. However for some reason after switching to a new computer (the old one quite literally fell apart!), I'm unable to load the relevant core file. My incantation is (setq slime-lisp-implementations '((sbcl ("sbcl") :coding-system utf-8-unix) (maxima ("sbcl" "--core" "/home/rupert/src/maxima/src/binary-sbcl/maxima.core")))) (yes, it is pointing in the right place) and I am able to load the program from the command line with lisp --core <corefile>. However, trying C-- M-x slime gives the output which I've (hopefully) attached. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Specifically, sbcl seems to be failing to require sb-introspect, but: rupert@hake:~ sbcl This is SBCL 1.0.14.debian, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp.
