[slime-devel] Newbie problems w/slime

[Jeffrey Berger]

Am attempting to set up an sbcl lisp environment in emacs and getting
undefined symbol error for load-path.

Here's my .emacs file:

cat .emacs
(setq inferior-lisp-program "/usr/local/bin/sbcl")
(add-to-list ’load-path "/usr/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp/slime")
(require ’slime)
(slime-setup)


... the debugger backtrace:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable ùload-path)
(add-to-list ùload-path "/usr/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp/slime")
eval-buffer(#<buffer *load*> nil "/home/jeff/.emacs" nil t) ; Reading at
buffer position 116
load-with-code-conversion("/home/jeff/.emacs" "/home/jeff/.emacs" t t)
load("~/.emacs" t t)
#[nil "...

and the result of eval'ing load-path:
("/usr/share/emacs22/site-lisp/slime"
"/usr/share/emacs22/site-lisp/slime/contrib"
"/usr/share/emacs22/site-lisp/dictionaries-common" "/etc/emacs22"
"/etc/emacs" "/usr/local/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp"
"/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp" "/usr/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp"
"/usr/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp/dictionaries-common"
"/usr/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp/slime"
"/usr/share/emacs/22.1/site-lisp/slime/contrib"
"/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp" ...)

What am I doing wrong?
TIA
