Agreed, the documentations is unclear. The expectation is that the user has already downloaded the package from sourceforge and is attempting an ASDF- INSTALL from a local directory. To install from the CLiki (assuming that lispbuilder-sdl-gfx where on the CLiki (which it is not)) the command to use would be; (asdf-install:install :lispbuilder-sdl-gfx_7.1.tgz) I'll update the documentation to state that the package must be retrieved prior to executing this command. > Problem B > --------- > A related problem is that if I download the sources by hand, and when I > tried to (asdf:operate 'asdf:load-op :lispbuilder-sdl) it couldn't find > the libSDL files I know I have on my system.

This also seems to have gone missing from the documentation. I'll add this dependency as well. A final note; you need to use lispbuilder-sdl from SVN. The official releases are very much out of date. - Luke _______________________________________________ application-builder mailing list application-builder@lispniks.com http://www.lispniks.com/mailman/listinfo/application-builder
