Hi all,
I tried to use xemacs as a lisp ide using slime. i referred to slime
and xemacs' inbuilt info documentation but still haven't succeeded in
configuring it properly.

Since this topic may not be of interest to all, I am putting in a
description of my efforts so far in an attachment so that it can be
ignored (instead of being flamed) more conveniently.

Regards,
Mohan S N

Background:
XEmacs-21.4 (Patch 19) is installed in c:\xemacs

Case 1:
(add-to-list 'load-path "C:\w3t66u\slime-2.0\slime.el")
(require 'slime)

Result:
Cannot open load file: slime

Case 2:
(add-to-list 'load-path "C:\w3t66u\slime-2.0")
(require 'slime)

Result:
Same as Case 1

Case 3:
(add-to-list 'load-path "C:\w3t66u\slime-2.0\slime.el\")
(require 'slime)

Result:
End of file or stream: "internal input stream"


Also using slime.el instead of slime in ``(require 'slime)'' gives similar 
results.

Next, browsing the xemacs info documentation itself quoth:
``The env var EMACSLOADPATH, if defined, is prepended to load-path''
So why not wear the shoe if it fits?

Almost got me there: minibuffer showed a lot of messages loading many things, 
but finally gave this error:
``Required feature C:\w3t66u\slime-2.0\slime.el was not provided''

Running ``xemacs -debug-init'' gives this failure:
``Cannot open load-file: hyperspec''
