You probably need to call #'lw:set-default-character-element-type before compiling/loading zip. I do that from .lispworks. I use 'lw:simple-char; in LW7.0 this is identical to 'character.

Hello,
 
Whenever I try loading Zip into Lispworks 7.0 or 6.1 I get the following error.
 
Error: #\ů (of type CHARACTER) is not of type BASE-CHAR.
 
 
It seems to be when it gets to this command in Zip.lisp line 452
 
(setf (elt *cp437->unicode* cp437) (code-char unicode))
 
And the following item is when begins throwing the type errors. It also does not like some of the other items in the list. 
 
(#x85 #x016F)
 
I have version zip-20150608. Any idea what is wrong?
 
Regards,
 
Will
