Climacs sounds like an interesting project indeed. I tried to install
it a few months ago but didn't manage to do it, now with a bit more
experience I gave it another try. This time I managed to get it
running.

Now that we have this wonderful gardeners project I thought it might
be useful to tell about the potential roadblocks. I'm running SBCL
0.9.6 on Ubuntu.
1. installing mcclim is a bit tricky
  - cliki tells about the sneaky trick (symlink system.lisp from the
McCLIM sources to ~/.sbcl/systems/clim-clx-user.asd), this works but
why is it needed?
  - using asdf to load clim-clx-user and clim-examples kinda works but
I end up two times in the debugger (ASDF:DUPLICATE-NAMES), I use abort
(the only option) stuff still seems to work in the end.
  - couldn't figure out how to compile/use the listener

2. Climacs package depends on mcclim which is still nowhere to be
found, modifying climacs.asd to depend on clim instead works. (did I
do mistakes in the previous steps)
