SLIME not connected?
Hugh Aguilar
working. When I do C-c C-c, I get an error message that says "Not
connected." SLIME is installed properly afaik; that was pretty easy. I
have a SLIME menu option, and some of the SLIME stuff works, but some
of it gives me this weird error message. I haven't done much reading
of documentation yet, so maybe that would help. :-) I wondered if the
message meant that I was supposed to be connected to the internet, but
I can't imagine why an IDE would need that, and it didn't work anyway.
I'm using Ubuntu, with EMACS 22.2.1. I've never used EMACS before, so
I am a complete noobie at that too. So far, the CL seems pretty easy,
but learning EMACS is the difficult part of Lisping!
This is my .emacs file in my home directory:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/Desktop/sbcl/slime-2010-11-06/")
(setq inferior-lisp-program "/usr/local/bin/sbcl")
(require 'slime)
(slime-setup)

M-x slime <RET>
or, alt-x, type "slime" (no quotes), then press return. Watch sbcl load
(with some luck) and presto.

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you --- that did work fine ---
thanks for the info. :-)
I'm still struggling a lot in my effort to learn EMACS/SLIME. Can you
recommend any good on-line docs that would help?
EMACS is a lot different from text editors that I have used in the
past. I'm sure it has a lot of power, what with being extensible, but
the user-interface is pretty tough going for me --- I suppose I will
just get used to it.
