[slime-devel] can't M-x slime on CMUCL 18c+

[Jack Andrews]

hi.

i recently downloaded slime-1.2.1 but it fails to work on, CMUCL 3.0.8 18c+
(debian):

i don't know if its because:
  a) i'm using lisp-safe.core (more typechecks?)
  b) i should be using an older slime to match the older CMUCL
  c) ...

i'd prefer to use an older slime than a newer cmucl, unless i'm persuaded
otherwise.


help much appreciated,
jack
