Thanks!

That seemed to help - now I have a new problem:

The error I get is:

(load "c:\\slime2.0\\swank-loader.lisp" :verbose t)
(swank:start-server "C:\\DOCUME~1\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\slime.596"
:external-format :iso-latin-1-unix)

The system cannot find the path specified.

Process inferior-lisp exited abnormally with code 1

Here is the code I am inserting into Xemacs init.el file (maybe this is the
source of the problem?):

   (add-to-list 'load-path "\\slime2.0\\")
   (add-to-list 'load-path "\\cygwin\\lisp\\cm\\")
   (setq cm-program "c:/cygwin/lisp/cm/bin/cm.bat")
   (load "etc\\xemacs\\cm.el")
   (enable-cm-commands)

Vista have a reasonable shell language or is it still the same dos
nonsense under the hood?
