[Ecls-list] getting ecl to work

[Juan Jose Garcia-Ripoll]

In a private conversation Isaiah told me that he was assuming asdf-install
and asdf are the same thing. Regarding the other problem he found, which I
quote here

(asdf:load-system "test")
Cannot find the external symbol LOAD-SYSTEM in #<"ASDF" package>.

the answer is that one has to load ASDF before using it. This is done using
(require 'asdf) before.
