</blockquote></div><br>Calling cygwin's clisp from window's slime is a PITA. But I find it then easier to link clisp to stuff that has been developed on linux (that involves using cffi for example).<br><br>Anyways, I made some modest progress today, but hit another roadblock. I figured that if I call clisp from the windows command prompt as follows:<br>
<br>bash -c clisp<br><br>clisp is launched in a proper cygwin environment, and various commands work as expected. In particular (relevant for discussion that follows) all the paths are cygwin paths (meaning the usual unix-like ones, such as /usr, /usr/lib, /home, etc). Dribble works too.<br>
<br>I tried to use the same call with slime by specifying the inferior-lisp-program as<br><br>c:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe -c clisp<br><br>clisp starts OK, but swank breaks with <br><br>...<br>;; Loading file C:\Documents and Settings\977315\My Documents\.swank.lisp ...<br>
;; Loaded file C:\Documents and Settings\977315\My Documents\.swank.lisp<br>*** - OPEN: Directory #P"C:\\DOCUME~1\\977315\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\" does not exist<br>The following restarts are available:<br>ABORT :R1 Abort main loop<br>
<br>But that is not correct. clisp seems to live in the windows world, because all the paths are listed as windows paths. Whereas if I start clisp from a cygwin bash window, or using the command above, clisp uses cygwin's paths.<br>
<br>Confused ...<br><br>Any ideas from the slime wizards?<br>
</blockquote></div><br>Actually, please disregard my confusion and don't spend any time thinking about it. I think I know what the problem is. <br><br>Mirko<br>
