[slime-devel] SLIME 1.0 Install Problem on Win2k/CLisp

I'm a long-time Emacs user, but I'm just starting to learn Common 
Lisp.  SLIME looks great, but I'm having a problem during installation.

I have the following system:
	Windows 2000 SP4
	CLisp version 2.30
	GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195)

I installed SLIME version 1.0 as per the manual and added the following to 
my .emacs file:

------------------------------------------------------
;;; SLIME Configuration
(setq inferior-lisp-program "c:/devtools/clisp/lisp.exe -M 
c:/devtools/clisp/lispinit.mem -B c:/devtools/clisp/")
(add-to-list 'load-path "d:/pub/site-lisp/slime")
(require 'slime)
(slime-setup)
------------------------------------------------------

But when I 'M-x slime', I get the following in the *inferior-lisp* buffer:

======================================================

  (:CONSTRUCTOR MAKE-LOCATION (BUFFER POSITION &OPTIONAL HINTS)))

======================================================

And I get the following message on the message line over and over:
"Polling "c:/Temp/slime.1252".. (Abort with `M-x slime-abort-connection'.)"

I went back a few months in the slime-devel archives, but I didn't see 
anything describing this problem.

Thank you,

Tad Ashlock
