2016-11-28 Thread trevormetivier
Hi fellow Trisquel-ers! Are there any libre Common LISP interpreteres available for Trisquel? I notice that SBCL and CLISP aren't in the repository. I'd like to be able to set up Emacs-Slime. What do I use for LISP programming on Trisquel? Thanks.

Compiling from source is frustrating. I've never had much luck with it either and avoid it when possible. Come back with an error message and your makefile and maybe someone can be of more help. Good luck!

Theres a better time and place to make that distinction. Or better yet, make that point while offering useful help that pertains to the original question. This is the kind of crap that keeps "linux" and "gnu/linux" relegated to a toy, a joke, just for fun computer toy with users who are rud

Its free as long you don't wish to actually make it useful in any way. there are licenses that support freedom and creativity. some of them are so free you add your own code and make it not free anymore if you want to. no wonder "gnu"/linux cant create an OS, let alone a functioning one.
