Hi;
I just setup SLIME by following the slime.pdf document. I was trying out the various key chords and find that C-M-x, which is supposed to evaluate the top-level form. Instead, it kills emacs - instantly. Any idea why? And what I can do to fix it?
To rule out .emacs misconfiguration, I tried a temporary one consisting of only the four SLIME configuration lines:
(setq inferior-lisp-program "/usr/bin/lisp") (add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/slime") (require 'slime) (slime-setup)
This made no difference.
I'm running emacs 21.3.1 on a Gentoo Linux system (2.6.9 kernel, xorg-x11 6.8.0-r3), and trying to use cmucl 18e-r4 (that's what it says). Here's the *Messages* after it loads:
