A FASL file is a compiled lisp file. If you check in that folder there will 
probably be another file there with the same name and the extension .lisp 
instead. There is no need to have a fasl file, the lisp system can load and 
compile the .lisp files as needed. If you feel like speed up the load process 
you can of course compile those files. Note that for the files to be saved 
you must have write permission in that folder, so the easiest way might be to 
start sbcl as root and then it will load and compile the files to FASL. Next 
time you start sbcl the lisp will load the compiled files.


If there's more, or you just forgot to tell us the error messages contained 
aditional problems, please repost with all the errors inlcuded.


Hope that helped. More specific lisp questions can be taken to #lisp @ 
freenode.net where I and others chat and answer questions.

Thanks,

Uli.

sbcl/lisp question

2007-09-26 Thread P.U.Kruppa

Hi,

while playing with SBCL and the editor slime, I found that slime 
needs some (fast loadable) files in /usr/local/lib/sbcl/.. 
(with .fasl suffix) to be set executable.

This is on FreeBSD 7.0 amd64.
