[slime-devel] Windows + CLisp: wrong path separator?

Not sure if that's really the problem but I had similar quirks with
CLISP 2.49 under Debian Lenny and the solution was:

CLISP 2.49 has no more "-K full", so just try:

(setq inferior-lisp-program "C:/Programmi/clisp-2.49/clisp.exe")

without the "-K full" it works with me, but haven't tested this
on Windows yet...
