Hi,<br>
<br>
I Have found Lisp Cabinet to be a nice all-in-one Windows install of
a Lisp environment, it gives you access to several Lisps including
SBCL. I liked it better than Lispbox.<br>
<br>
But, having been through the pain you are experiencing now, I have
to say, doing it the hard way with seperate installs of
emacs/sbcl/slime is worth it. You are forced to find out about the
necessary plumbing that stitches it all together, once you have that
grounding then I recommend Lispbox or Lisp Cabinet for Windows, or
even better install a Linux distro in a VM or seperate partition and
just apt-get all the tools. I found Ubuntu the easiest to do this
with.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;">I have installed SBCL
and Emacs on Windows XP, and have pulled the current CVS files
for SLIME, added path settings to .emacs, and turned the key.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;">It seems to start
working, but then SBCL apparently tries to find a file named
“ASDF-extensions.lisp”.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;">I looked through all
the files I downloaded related to SBCL, Emacs, and SLIME, but
could not find that file. I also have googled to see if others
had this problem with SBCL, but to no avail.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;">I apologize if the
SLIME list is not the appropriate venue for the questions, so
if there is a better one please let me know.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;">Is
