[cmucl-help] help a newbee to start cmucl

[Bharat Shetty]

Hi,

I had installed the bundled cmucl 20c version on a debian x86 system. It
worked with the bundled slime/emacs. Recently I started getting
DIVISION-BY-ZERO (operands 99 and 0 ) while slime loads asdf. Could not
find much help on the net.

uninstalled the bundled version and switched to cmucl version released on
July/2015. Tried hemlock. Cant do much more than starting using

   1. (require :gray-streams)
   2. (require :simple-streams)
   3. (require :clx)
   4. (require :clm)
   5. (require :hemlock)
   6. (ed)

and then quiting:

   - Alt-x Exit Hemlock


Most(all?) key bindings dont work I am restricted to external commands via
Alt-x(hopefully this is equivalent to M-x). I can load files using "find
file" but even navigating through the file results in strange behaviour and
a lot of logs generated in the console. I have lesstif installed on the
system and all the requires above complete without error)

Any help with getting back with cmucl on emacs/hemlock is welcome.

Regards,
Bharat
