[slime-devel] Installation Slime with OpenMCL

[jsdey at optonline.net]

Hi Helmut:

After installing the missing programs, things appear to be working.  
The message line
says:  Connected on port 49841. John, this could be the start of a 
beautiful program.
You guys are expecting a lot from me.  I will do some more testing this 
weekend and
thanks for the support and exquisite program.

Regards,
John
