I'd like to keep on with Emacs, Common Lisp, and I'm quite
happy with CM 2.10 if that was the last version.
I'll certainly be using Grace in the future, but separately.

It seems a simple error in my install.  I can't seem to get
a working result by following Install.html and Emacs.html.

As you know, Emacs *with Slime* is the only way to go.
Maybe CM 2.10 or CM 2.4 works OK under just CLisp alone,
but its hard for me to tell. I can persist and check that if
you wish. It seems something about the Emacs config.


Hi there were some changes in recent slimes that caused things to not work but ive made fixes to cm/etc/emacs/cm.el and checked them into svn. I just reinstalled cm2 + clisp + emacs + slime from scratch on my windows box and I dont have any problems now. So rather than try to fix you problem Ill just tell you what I did. its basically a two step proccess; (1) installing lisp and (2) configureing emacs

Install clisp and cm on my local machine ( c: /Software/cm2 and c:/ Sofware/clisp-2.47)

1 svn'ed the lastest cm2 from today ( REV 1688 / cm 2.11.3) into my C:/Software folder:
        svn co https://commonmusic.svn.sf.net/svnroot/commonmusic/branches/cm2
2 dowloaded and installed the latest clisp (clisp-2.47-win32-mingw- big.zip) into c:/Software/clisp-2.47 3 double-clicked C:/Software/clisp-2.47/install.bat to install clisp and typed 'y' to add a GNU-CLISP desktop icon to start clisp
4 double-clicked the GNU-CLISP icon on my desktop to start clisp
5 Loaded cm.lisp to build the system and to save cm2/bin/cm-clisp.bat :
      (load "/Software/cm2/src/cm.lisp")
6 Quit Clisp

At this point CM is compiled and it saved a CM startup script in cm2/ bin:

        C:/Software/cm2/bin/cm-clisp.bat

Configuring Emacs

1. downloaded the latest cvs snapshot of Slime into c:/Software/ slime-2009-03-16
2. Started Emacs and edited my Emacs init file:   ~/.emacs
3. Added the following to the top of my .emacs file. you have to change the directories for your machine:

(add-to-list 'load-path "/Software/slime-2009-03-16/")
(require 'slime)
(slime-setup '(slime-repl))
(setq cm-program "/Software/cm2/bin/cm-clisp.bat")
(add-to-list 'load-path "/Software/cm2/")
(load "etc/emacs/cm.el")
(enable-cm-commands)


4. saved .emacs file, the quit and restarted Emacs to make the changes to .emacs take effect.

3. Started CM by typeing
        M-x:  cm

Cm starts up in a slime repl window. I can eval stuff from a .lisp buffer without problems.
