Hello Everyone:


I have a problem getting the emacs/lisp interface running.


First the  "site-init" is loaded, which in turn loads  several files.

when it comes to load the line 

(load "fi/keys.elc")



it gives an error that is:


	can not open tags


I checked the file  "keys.el"

it has  the following line:

		(require 'tags)


--------------------------------------------------
I have no idea about lisp nor emacs. However i need to run a lisp program.

(I know that this is supposed to be done by the system analyst, our analyst who 
  knew about lisp and emacs, has left :<)

Any help or clue will be greatly appreciated


thanks in advance

shereef

Try using the ilisp-interface.

Your options are, in the order I think will help you the most:

	o use M-x shell instead.  Forget about a fancy interface.
	o use ilisp.
	o get tags someplace.
	o spoof Allegro by providing tags somehow.

If you are not going to use Allegro much, forget about its emacs
modes.

If you are going to use it a lot, use ilisp.  I recommend ilisp to
heavy Lisp, including Allegro, hackers, at least up to fcl4.2.

If you are going to use it a lot and deal with Allegro multiprocessing
a lot and will not ever use another Lisp or Scheme than Allegro, try
to get Allegro's interface to work.

Friendly advice: line lengths less than 75 characters, consistent left
margins, and single spacing make Usenet and email discussions easier.
