I cross-post this article for the lack of traffic on comp.lang.lisp.franz,
hoping someone with similar experience could help me out. My question is:
how to get the Allegro Composer to work with AllegroCL4.1? All I've ever got
is "Composer needs to be connected to Emacs in order for this command to
succeed" in an Error window. And "M-x fi:verify-emacs-support" only gets
[No Match]. Is this the cause, that I don't have a compatible version of Emacs?
I'm running GNU Emacs 18.58.1, ACL4.1, X11R4, and Motif1.1 on a SUN SPARC IPX.
Attached is a typical session, thank in advance for any hints, please e-mail
if possible.
Best Regards,
Pei-yu Huang

That list is for users of Franz Lisp. Franz Inc. no longer supports
Franz Lisp (we do support Allegro Common Lisp) and so we do not
closely monitor that newsgroup. There is an email forum for Allegro
CL users called ···········@Berkeley.EDU". If you'd like to be
included on this list, send mail to ···················@Berkeley.EDU".
People with problems running Allegro CL and related products should
send their questions to ····@franz.com for the fastest response.

Looking at your session, it seems as if you are starting Allegro CL in
a shell. In order for much of Allegro Composer to work, it must be
started within GNU Emacs, using the Allegro CL/GNU Emacs interface
function fi:common-lisp.
Perhaps you could send additional information to ····@franz.com.
