Dear all

Sorry to post this question to the SuSE mailing list, but I have 
tried both Forrest Young and Luke Tierney of ViSta and XLispStat fame 
without any success.  I am using SuSE 6.0 afterall, so I am sure you 
won't mind too much ;-).

I either have a problem with installing ViSta or XLispStat.  Both 
seem to be compiling/installing properly, but I get an error message 
under XLispStat when I run ViSta.

Below is the error message reported by XLispStat 3.52.5 (and 3.52.9) 
(I have tried all versions of ViSta): 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
;loading statinit.lsp 
;loading /usr/local/lib/vista/prefs/prefload.lsp 
;loading /usr/local/lib/vista/code/vista.fsl 
Error:ViSta requires the Xlisp-Stat Dialogs feature. Happened

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
Paths to the XLispStat and ViSta directories are: 
/usr/local/lib/vista, 
and /usr/local/lib/xlispstat.

statinit.lsp has been edited to reflect the correct path to ViSta.  I
am using SuSE 6.0 running on a Pentium II 233MHz.

This is the reply from the XLispStat people:

I did check the Makefile and everything seems OK.  Does anyone have a 
suggestion that might get ViSta/XLispStat working?

Thanking you in advance,
AJ
