[Sbcl-help] load give error, but paste into sbcl works

[Jinsong Zhao]

Hi there,

I have save the source code of bottle-song with correct at
http://www.99-bottles-of-beer.net/language-common-lisp-114.html
into a file named "beer.lisp"

And then load it from sbcl, and it give error:
...
; Use *BREAK-ON-SIGNALS* to intercept.
;
; error in FORMAT: Unknown directive (character: Return)
...
; ~1%~:*~]~]~}~0%
; ^
;
; compilation unit finished
; caught 1 ERROR condition

But if I paste the code to sbcl, it works.

I don't know what's the difference of both operations.

Best,
Jinsong

This is likely an error in how SBCL treats file endings on Windows.

Are you able to format the file to use Unix file endings and try loading
it again in SBCL?

Thank you very much. After converting the line break in Windows file to
Unix file. It works.
