[slime-devel] Installation Slime with OpenMCL

[jsdey at optonline.net]

Hi Marco:

Thanks you and the others for responding.  I used the elisp code you 
send changing paths and file
to agree with my system and things are beginning to work.  It looks 
like the swank server is not
running (I didn't see it -- ps aux ).  Thanks for the assistance and 
any further comments/guidance will be
greatly appreciated.


DETAILS

Here is my code now in .emacs  (see 2 comments:

;;; SLIME & OpenMCL
(add-to-list 'load-path "/Users/robo2/Lisp/slime/")
(setq browse-url-browser-function
       (lambda (url &optional new-window)
         (message url)
         (do-applescript (concat "tell application \"Safari\" to open 
location \"" url "\""))))

(setq common-lisp-hyperspec-root
       "file:///Users/robo2/Lisp/HyperSpec-6-0/HyperSpec/"
       common-lisp-hyperspec-symbol-table
       "/Users/robo2/Lisp/HyperSpec-6-0/HyperSpec/Data/Map_Sym.txt" ;; 
Your file was Symbol-Table.text
       cltl2-root-url
       "file:///Users/mb/lisp/info/cltl")  ; I don't have anything 
equivalent to this

(require 'slime)

(setf lisp-indent-function 'common-lisp-indent-function)

;; NB: this is the path to the openmcl executable
(setf inferior-lisp-program "/Users/robo2/Lisp/ccl/openmcl")

My emacs screen looks like this after "M-x slime":
