Hello,
I'm trying to install and run on a Windows 2000 machine XEmacs v21.4.8
(this works), CLISP v.2.29 (this also works) and ILISP v5.12 to bring
them together. The last one does not work. I have done everithing in
the "INSTALLATION"-file of the ILISP-distribution, but when I execute
"M-x run-ilisp" and give "clisp-hs" in emacs, I receive some errors in
the inferior clisp window the first of which is :
[2]> ;;;; Loading c:\uxwin\xemacs\xemacs-packages\lisp\ilisp\ilisp-pkg.lisp
*** - A file with name
C:uxwinxemacsemacs-packageslispilispilisp-pkg.lisp does not exist
1. Break [6]>....
and some more errors in the same style => CLISP receives as parameters
some file names which use a single "\" as a directory delimiter.
Can someone help me?

Try using slash as directory delimiter (e.g. C:/UXWIN/XEMACS/ etc.) or
perhaps even double-backslash (C:\\UXWIN\\XEMACS\\ etc.).
Hope this helps!

There is a set of instructions and a sample .emacs file for use with
Windows, emacs and 4 different Lisp implementations at the CL Cookbook
site: http://cl-cookbook.sourceforge.net/windows.html
I know you said you were using xemacs rather that FSF Emacs but that may
provide you with some clues.
Also, if you have specified pathnames in your load path with the normal
Windows backslash delimeter (e.g. -- C:\mydir\) you should change them
to forward slashes (e.g. -- c:/mydir/) as emacs interprets the backslash
as an escape character. Same is true for the ilisp variable that holds
the location of your clisp executable. For example, mine looks like
this:
(defvar clisp-hs-program "c:/bin/clisp-2.29/lisp.exe -B
c:/bin/clisp-2.29/ -M c:/bin/clisp-2.29/lispinit.mem -ansi -I -q")
Hope that helps.

Thank you a lot for the assistance - I had correct path names (with
"/" instead of "\") and had readed the cl-cookbook, but I didn't knew
that Emacs and XEmacs are not the same :)) (Shame on me :). After
switching to Emacs, the recipe in the cl-cookbook runs perfectly...
So, thank you also for the cl-cookbook!
Regards
I have found a link http://groups.google.ch/groups?q=windows+clisp+ilisp+emacs&hl=de&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=3C0F56DA.30603%40hotmail.com&rnum=1
which describes part of the way to run ILisp under XEmacs, but I don't
know how find the described functions - may be this would be also
something for the cl-cookbook.
