The README does not match the .PDF documentation when explaining how to configure the ~/.emacs file. The README mentions setting the inferior-lisp-program variable, but it doesn't show how to do it. An example would be moderately helpful to people who are not familiar with emacs configuration, i.e. it may save someone a half hour of futzing. Believe it or not, people (like me :-) do things like wonder "what is this variable they're talking about?" and then start looking for it in the emacs docs, which of course it isn't in. Something like the following would be an improvement over what is currently written:

(setq inferior-lisp-program "D:/lang/clisp-2.33.2/clisp.bat") (add-to-list 'load-path "D:/app/slime") (require 'slime) (slime-setup)

Also the README doesn't say you need to put this stuff in your ~/.emacs file. Maybe there are other ways to get it working, but it might be good if the README assumes less familiarity with emacs rather than more. Generally, the .PDF documentation is clearer than the README. Maybe it would be best to synchronize the README from the .PDF doc.
