Guys,
I am totally new to Lisp, but am trying to learn, however I cannot get slime to install on my linux box!
I want to be able to use slime with clisp using emacs from the command line (ie in a terminal window as oppose to in a GUI). I have tried both the latest version from CVS and the stable released version, but both give the same error. My .emacs entry and output when slime attempts to start are below.
Any help would be much appreciated!
emacs entry:-
(setq inferior-lisp-program "clisp") (add-to-list 'load-path "/home/sodonnel/slime/slime") (require 'slime) (slime-setup)
Startup output:-
(load "/home/sodonnel/slime/slime/swank-loader.lisp" :verbose t) (swank:start-server "/tmp/slime.12088" :external-format :iso-latin-1-unix)
